Yano I wouldn't mind it so much if he didn't appear on Raw every year to sell a new book. I dunno, he's not the great mankind anymore, he's mick *cheap pop wallet stealing* foley. I tend to agree with this, however I can't fault the man for trying to make a little spare cutter. They give him the time to go out there. It's not like he comes to your house and tells you about it. It gets old but so did Mick so I guess we've to accept the fact he's traded in cage dives for the prospect of financial security.

I LOVE MICK'S USE OF CAPITAL LETTERS IN ALL OF HIS AUCTIONS. GO MICK GO! THE MYSTERY T-SHIRT ONE IS BY FAR THE FUNNIEST AUCTION HE HAS.

Most of his earnings more-than-likely went towards medical bills, so if selling a few shirts and what-not is his prerogative, so be it. He has the same right to make a living as anybody else.

So is he in Long Island, or Bloomington now? I was asking that myself, then I realized when he was a JTTS in the WWF in the mid-80's as Jack Foley, he was billed from Bloomington, Indiana.

Oh and how is this any worse than selling something on eBay or something of the sorts?

I just hate the fact that he say's in his first book that he does not want to be the guy that is sitting there selling your wares to long.
They look pathetic.
Really Mick do they?

He's still got a large fan base, but you know that with each passing year since he's no longer a WWE main eventer, the prospects of him making good money off wrestling are dwindling fast.
Wrestling fans forget you very fast. Apart from a very select few, how many wrestlers can really make a good living selling merchandise years after retirement? Good luck to him, he gave a lot to the wrestling business, I see nothing wrong with taking a bit back from it, so long as it's not to the detriment of the business.
And besides, knowing Mick's history of doing so, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if much of this went to charity.

C'mon guys. I bet if Mickie sold a pair of her match worn panties on E-bay, with her getting 100% of the profits, this board would go batshit.

If we've learned anything from Mick over the years, he is kind of a whore. Coming back to TV just to sell his new book. Selling his stuff on eBay. But y'know what, that's what I love about him. He doesn't take a high and mighty position and just says "Yeah, I'm shillin. I was a New York Times best seller y'know." I can respect that.
