I'll be honest dude, I've never known anyone over the age of 7 to use the expression "douche".

Talk to more people over the age of 7, then.

The Douche? Not only is he a Hoss, he is king of the friggin' Hosses.

Thanks for that usefull feedback. If you would like to see "Douche" used more often by people over 7 years old, stop by any number of Hogan related threads that I've posted on. I try to slip it in every chance I get.

Hulk Hogan is a Douche.

See.

Judge Hogan pre 89....Hardly a "Hoss"

And anyone who says Hogan can't work is a moron...This debate happens all the time...Explain what being able to "Work" means?

When did "Charisma" get confused with "the ability to hammer out a long string of illegible words and get red in the face"?

ROFL!

Let's see, is Hogan a hoss? He's big and not exactly a ring technician. So he's got that. Here's what wikipedia has on it (just a clip)

The term's cultural origin lies with the character "Hoss" Cartwright of the TV series Bonanza. The term "Hoss" was coined by Jim Ross, Ross uses it as a positive term, using it to say that a wrestler is large, powerful, and unstoppable (in kayfabe). However, since many of the wrestlers he applies it to are significantly lacking in the talent and/or charisma departments, and rely exclusively on their size to get over, it has come to assume its current meaning as an insult among wrestling fans.

I don't think Hogan relies on his size to win (unless it's the size of his backstage pull ). Though in his heyday, he was large, powerful and unstoppable in kayfabe.

So, a hearty "maybe" is what I give.
