Don’t tell this writer about professional wrestling, he’d pop an artery.

“They seem to think the 21 hours each day that I am not working out would be better spent in nobler pursuits than writing. Like fathering illegitimate children or shooting at my illegally-procured pit bulls.”

Laugh or cry... I’m still deciding.

speaking of cover ups, why did the reporter not mention mlb and its steroid controversy?

Why bother going to colleges to look for young thugs? Wouldn't it be easier to recruit from the prison system and forgo the middle man - so to speak.

Teams could practice in the prison yards.

Stadiums could be financed by organized crime rather than shaken down citizens.

Taxpayers would save a bundle not having to keep these guys out of jail or prison - because they'd already be there. Court costs add up.

And as an extra bonus for those who like to pit large animals against each other - these "animals" would be more brutal than the run of the mill college grad.

Two years later, two of Vick's travelling companions stole a watch from an airport security worker. Leaked papers from an Atlanta police report show that Mr Johnson arranged for the watch to be returned to the security scanner operator, Alvin Spencer, and then offered him a sum between $450 and $1,000 for "any inconvenience he may have encountered". Mr Spencer said Mr Johnson told him: "If I kept it out of the press and if I kept Vick's name out of it, I wouldn't have to worry about it any more."

What does this mean, that a little celebrity and $1,000 can get contriband through TSA at Atlanta? How can TSA be tough-as-nails with the rest of us when they're willing to take a bribe for an NFL player?
