I think the different reactions to Hogan's current charges and the Benoit murders might be a factor of workrate with a small minority of wrestling fans. It's possible with some people. But from reading this thread, I think folks are just funning around at Hogan and Nick's obviously stupid decisions. I'm not saying it's not stupid, as it was but Benoit had a history of beating his wife years before this incident took place and I just said what I thought about. If people disagree, fine, but I don't see how it's tasteless. Oh. I laughed at the joke, personally, but it's still going to be a sore spot with a lot of folks.

Man up Can we please have a banning of this phrase (except when it involves the Briscoes)? Not because of how it was used just now, but because it's smurfing annoying.

When I was a kid, I was a huge Hogan fan. But that won't make me overlook the fact that he's somewhat responsible for the fact that there's a kid's in a hospital who's probably going to be a vegetable for the rest of his life because of what occurred.
Hogan doesn't get a free pass from me because he entertained me when I was an eight year old fan or because I met him and took a picture with him at the Rosemont Horizon in 1989.
Hogan put himself in a bad spot by trying to be Nick's friend and not Nick's father. I couldn't tell you why Hogan would rather be his son's buddy than be his son's disciplinarian other than the possibility of trying to overcompensate the fact that he was touring around the world when his child was growing up without him at home, but that's my educated guess.
And, for the record, I find Nick should be completely held accountable for his actions and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law if convicted. He's not a little kid. He should have developed some common sense. But Hulk ultimately will take the brunt of the controversy because his son's underage and he was purchasing alcohol for Nick and his friends the day of the accident. And seeing as that Hulk is over 50 years old, he certainly should have developed some common sense by now.
Do the Bolleas think they're above the law and thought they were invincible? Maybe. But it looks like if Graziano's legal team has it their way (and they might get it), they're going to be brought right back down to earth with the rest of us and deal with the consequences of a poor decision.

Can we please stop joking about Hulk Hogan? He's a great guy, you just don't know him personally. I shook the guy's hand. When he said "How you doing brother" I knew right then he was the coolest dude in the whole world. Plus he's the biggest draw ever, so please just stop it's hard to read. This homeless guy I gave a dollar to is a great guy because he said God Bless you and shoock my hand.

Why the hell isn't the guy that sold nick the beer brought up? I brought him up on page six, actually. If California is anything like Maine, that cashier will be fired and prosecuted, most likely. It's a third party sale to a minor, and even more evidence against that man will be the footage of underage Nick carrying liquor out of the store. Where I work, we don't let anyone underage handle anything they aren't allowed to purchase in the store. (So, for instance, your 10 year old wouldn't be allowed to walk out with your lighter or booze in a paper bag; you would have to carry it.)

In defense of the cashier, wouldn't you be afraid of the power of Hulkamania? Cashier: "I'm sorry Mr. Hogan, but I know you're not gonna drink $240 dollars worth of alcohol by yourself. I can't sell you this beer." Hogan points at the cashier and mutters "YOOOOOOU!" and proceeds to rip off his shirtNick: "Look at whatcha did. Now my dad's down to three tearaway shirts and we haven't gotten to the beach yet."

Is this the proper thread to unveil my new Low-Brow Signature? Damn that is the most hilarious signature I've seen in years. Keep up the great work brotha. ;D This is the part I really like: "I am a Real American Buying those Beers for Younger Men I am a Real American In Jail for my Life Where is my Wife!" RFLMAO!

Give CM Punk a win over Hogan, he deserves it and it might even serve as a symbol of WWE cleaning up its act. That is, only if Punk goes on to become WHC or something.

It looks like the Taskmaster may get his wish to end Hulkamania. Wow, is this a great year for Heel Sullivan or what?
