    I remember him hanging out on occasion at a local bar in Florida that was on my beach in the mid to late 70's. Just some big young guy named Terry that was sometimes around learning from veterans of the business that we all knew. He was almost shy. I did not see at the time what he was going to become. Wrestling was some rough shit in those days. You had to be tough as nails to survive. Five shows a week. No time to recover, and they definitely got hurt on a regular basis.

    After his divorce and his ex got the boyfriend that was as old as his daughter he made the “I understand OJ” comment. Then Linda put a restraining order against him saying Hulk threatened her life. But I agree and understand Hulks comment about OJ. Sacrifice your body and spend your life saving. Then your ex gets it. Gets a new boyfriend and spends that money on him. See him riding around town in the car you bought spending the money you earned the hard way. Yeah you’d go crazy too. Especially on yourself for not having a prenup. But you were in love and she’s like our love is real and we’ll never be break up. But it’s like Martin Lawrence said when he got in an argument with a female heckler. If you go in a relationship with millions and all she brings in is a purse a prenup should be mandatory.

    How did people listen to this show? genuine question here.. did people like it because Stern was pretty brutal? and did people like this Robin lady? she strikes me as acidic and self inflated. shouts 'ITS FAKE' to hulk f-ing hogan, in 2011 ffs come on! seriously?
