Should Tom Platz Come out of Retirement?We read earlier this week of an interview with Tom Platz where he mentions he may come back out of retirement.

If this is true, should Tom at 53 years of age even make the effort to come back? I say why in the hell not? If Markus Ruhl and Ronnie Coleman are coming out of retirement - why shouldn't Tom? Hell - May as well throw Dorian in the mix too!

I simply replied that just that particular division alone budgets out to $12,000 which does not include any costs of the venue, judges, stage set, hotel, advertising, transportation, trophies, etc. and that I would require it by December of 2009 to inform the IFBB office of my 2010 intentions.
