>Iron Sheik was on Jerry Springer...not playing Iron Sheik.
I knew a fat girl and two trannies who were on Jerry (not at the same time),
they got paid $400, free plane tickets, and all the liqour they could drink.
I hate cheaters...the concept and the host irritates me.

But Robbie... isn't this is *exactly* the kind of TV your dumbed down
peeps just love to watch?
Where would your 'progressive' leaders be if it weren't for their
educational system domination which are simply factories for young
dumbed down skulls of much who scarf that shit down like a bag of
cheap candy. Maybe if your progressives weren't so 'in the pocket' of
the Hollywood trash purveyors pumping out this crap, you wouldn't have
anything to bitch about.

Is wrestling a fake? Oh no!!! You mean Jerry Springer is staged? Damn.
When I was 10 I begged my father to take me to "Big Time Wrestling". I
will never forget the matchup; it was Johhny Weaver and George
Becker vs. The Invaders. It must have sucked for my pops but I loved
it. The funny thing was that my dad could predict the outcome of each
match. We lived in a small town and my dad said that the title won't
change hands in a small market. Sure enough The Invaders got
disqualified just as Johhny and George was getting ready to beat the
shit out them. It is a good memory for me. My dad and I have laughed
about that night for a long time. My dad hated wrestlling but loved me
enough to take me. What a great memory. Mindless entertainment for an
adult but for a 10 year old, I admired Johnny Weaver and George Becker
because they were the good guys. The Invaders were the heels. It was
the memory that counted, not the show.
"MINDLESS???"
"I begin this with an acknowledgment that I am a crazy kook who should
not be listened to."
someone feels threatened by my diction, eh?
Kook the kook out.
Hey Douche, Play a different tune and try to be nice.
