HULK-A-IDIOT RUNNING WILD - D.B. of the Week

-
Hulk Hogan makes the rounds on the morning talk shows...

...I always thought he was kind of dim-witted.

His entire act is pretty lame, but he made a lot of money running around in his yellow tights.

But he was always sorta' dopey to me.

He easily wins D.B. of the Week this week with his racist rant about a black guy dating his daughter.

And it's not just the brutal sentences he managed to string together that gets him the award.

Let's review:

Steroids - check.

Weird leering at his own daughter - check.

Nasty divorce with full name calling and stories of horrendous behavior - check.

Sleeping with his best friend's wife - check.

Taping it - check.

Acting crazy when the tape was leaked - check.

Suing everyone - check.

Crying for forgiveness - check.

Anyone surprised by the racist rant?

But that's not to say that the Hulkster won't have his backers.

About ten years ago I was at the wrestling matches with my boys.

Thank God that phase ended...

...but it wasn't my boys love for the tough guys that scared me.

It was the grown men who went to the matches and acted as if they were seeing Ali-Frazier.

My boys still laugh about the guy who screamed every imaginable curse word at John Cena.

"I'LL KILL YOU CENA! FIGHT ME, YOU COWARD!!!"

The guy was seated next to his own kids...I wonder about those poor kids...who were trying to crawl under the seat embarrassed by their Dad.

But that's the world where the Hulkster lived.

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

The WWE dumped Hulk Hogan yesterday after the tape hit the airwaves.

I don't know where the Hulkster goes from here, but one thing is sure:

He can trade in his heavyweight belt for D.B. of the Week.

With Donald Trump at microphones all over the land it isn't easy to wrestle away the D.B. of the Week Honors...

...but the Hulk did it.

Idiotic Behavior Running Wild!

Suits

Like a lot of other people we got pulled into the series, ‘Suits’ on Netflix. I’ve never had much fun hanging around lawyers who have questioned me as a construction safety officer. I once testified in a case where the opposing lawyer started questioning me by going through my educational background. “So,” he said, racing to a crescendo, “You graduated from college with a degree in Communications-Journalism and suddenly, 30 years later, you’re a ‘safety expert.’” He actually made the quotation marks with his fingers. I just looked at him. “How does that happen?” He bellowed, sure that he was going to discredit me. “Well,” I said. “I knew I was overqualified to become a lawyer.” The courtroom erupted in laughter. Even the judge chuckled. The rest of his questions landed flat. So, I wasn’t all that keen on a show about lawyers, but ‘Suits’ is great. Meghan Markle became a princess because of the show, and she is very good in it (and a beautiful woman). Yet, there is so much more. The wri

My Buddy, Dave

-
Way back in 1997, I started working with a steel erection company out of Syracuse. I was coming straight from a long stint with a steel erector here in Buffalo so I knew my stuff when it came to steel erection safety rules. On day one, I met with the safety director and he was just getting started as a safety guy, but man, he certainly cared about the guys he worked with. Dave was a good man from the start. He’d say things like: “You’re so full of beans.” Just a down to earth, hardworking guy who became a fast friend. We drove all around New York State setting up jobs. I always let Dave drive so that I could rest. One fine day, way up North of Syracuse, we passed a state trooper.  I glanced at the speedometer. “You’re screwed,” I said, and seconds later, the lights came on. Dave was beside himself.  The cop stopped by the window, grabbed the license and registration and headed back to his vehicle. “Here’s the thing,” I said. “You’re pissed, but you’re such a good guy that I bet you tha

Mom & Ollie

 Ollie Stadium is a mess. The heavy rains rendered the backyard a mud pit and even though we threw in the side yard, the Big O was looking for more, and we were both covered in mud. I had to take some steam out of him somehow so I suggested we go visit Grandma. Ollie hates the car, but he laid quietly as we made the trip. We even brought the football because there is plenty of room to play at Grandma’s. Mom opened the door and started laughing. I thought about the love she had for every single dog we ever had. Oliver was quick to give my Mom a kiss, and then he stood beside her. The love between Mom and Dogs is a mutual bond. Through the years, Mom would make breakfast for the dogs.  Fried eggs, toast, bacon… She would wrap Christmas gifts for them. “To Jeter, Love Santa,” she would write on the cards. They played with the big chicken that made a lot of noise. Mom tossed the football and Ollie brought it back to her. As the visit drew to a close I headed for the door.  “C’mon, Oliver,”
