Just in case none of you know, bodybuilding.com sold 80% of their company. Not sure if it means anything to you all or if any of you shop their. Just thought I would mention it.

Yep. I hope it was worth it......I'm sure Ryan knows how to invest it.....

they claim there wont be any changes as far as the consumer is concerned.

That site has been around for a while.

I doubt they'll have any changes. Realize 60% of them was bought out last year.

Your correct. The purchase was by an Investment Company which is a little different than being bought by another supplement company. I imagine that Ryan and the gang will still run the operation.

1Fast400 · 01-09-2008, 04:13 PM

Yup, I looked into buying them 3 years ago. We talked for a bit, then oddly they tried to buy me. They will always have a hand in that company. It's split up between the ENTIRE family.

maybe, maybe not, but the DeLuca's no longer have a controlling interest in the company.
