The Twisted World According to Hulk Hogan

by celebuzz on Jun. 11, 2008 11:22 AM / 8 Comments

Woe is Hulk Hogan. The wrestler, reality-TV star and father of two sat in on Larry King Live last night to plead his case. Hulk's son, Nick Bollea, is in a Florida jail serving eight months for the alcohol-related drag-racing crash that left his buddy in a vegetative state.

From the first day he entered jail, the kid has done nothing but complain about his treatment and beg to come home because "the cell is smaller than my bathroom."

The Hulkster wants the world to know "there's been a lot of reckless reporting that isn't accurate." Alrighty, then, let's take it from the top:

• Did his son drink alcohol Hulk himself bought? "I bought alcohol and took it out on the boat for the adults. Nick does not drink in my presence."

• Was he allowed to whip around in a souped-up sports car despite previous citations? "Nick had a couple tickets. You know, one was when I was with him."

• Did Nick beg his dad to line up a reality show so "I will make the most money"? Uh-huh.

• Would he be pushing for empathy if the situation were reversed and it was Nick who was splayed out like sashimi? "Yes, I would feel, simply because of religiously and spiritually where I'm at—I would forgive."

• What's behind this entire nightmare? "Things happen for a reason. This is to make Nick a better person. In my belief, this is to make John a better person."

Ohhhh-kay, don't think a vegetative state is going to lead anyone toward being a better person. In a word, it was one uncomfortable hour. Judge for yourself...

Quotables /

“Oh, man, those crazy Hogans have done it again! This time Hulk stopped by "Larry King Live" last night for an emotional interview about his son Nick's imprisonment. At the end of the interview, a teary-eyed Hulk remained positive that Nick's accident happened for a divine reason and then expressed his belief that John Graziano's coma would make him "a better person."

WOW! Because nothing improves your outlook on life than a coma you'll never wake up from. Damn, these people will blame anyone but themselves. I'm looking forward to Linda Hogan appearing on The View where she'll point the finger at, of course, John Graziano along with Satan and "the rat-bastard who invented the wheel." Her son's a driver of vehicles. How could you?!”

The Superficial

“As if there was any real doubt, Hulk Hogan was lying last night on "Larry King Live." He claimed he said what he did on those jailhouse tapes because he had been going crazy for almost a month, with almost no sleep, while his son was on the brink of madness in solitary confinement. Hulk said…

"... solitary confinement, most hardened criminals unravel after two or three days, Nick survived in there for 28-29 days. During that period of time, while I’m sitting there, 28-29 days, with hardly any sleep, I did everything I could…"

And he just kind of rambles on after that, but here’s the point: Nick Hogan began his jail sentence on May 9. In the lawsuit filed by the Hogans against the Pinellas County Sheriffs Department for releasing the phone calls, page 2, line 17 says:

"Between May 10, 2008, and May 21, 2008, Defendant, in an unprecedented action, released to the media approximately 26 hours of Bolleas recorded telephone calls with his family."

This means the tapes were made as early as the very first day. At the very most Nick was in jail 11 days before Hulk said what he did. I'm not good with numbers, but I'm pretty sure 29 is way more than 1. Hulk should just admit his little boy is a bitch and he's in jail and they know he can't handle it.

Linda Hogan said we should let Nick out and as a punishment give him a kitten but the kitten would have mange. No, she didn't really say that but only because she hasn't thought of it yet.”

“Hulk Hogan tried to give his side to the famous jailhouse tapes, on which Hogan and his family essentially blame John Grazianao for going into a coma (that kid is a jerk!) Hogan comes off better last night than he did in the tapes but at one point he does insist that this was all part of gods plan to make Nick and John better people. Keep in mind John Graziano will never open his eyes again.

To recap, Hulk raised a spoiled fuckup, and John was a negative person, so god killed John to make up for Hulks failure as a parent. Because ours is a vengeful god, who will smite all those who do not make him happy, and Nick Hogan is his instrument of death.

In hindsight, maybe Hulk should just shut the fuck up from now on.”

REGARDING HULK HOGANS SON; Do you really believe that his punishment fits the crime. Nick is surely broken hearted that his actions though not intentional have his dear friend in a coma. you, the justice system are using him as an example and are proving once again that there is no justice.you have him in isolation that you would put your most hardened criminals in. Thats Florida for you once again it shows the rest of the world that it is no better than a 3rd world country. are you trying to tell the world that this is how you will punish all 17 year old children in the United States when they drink and drive and get into an accident,or are you doing this to him because his father is famous. He used poor judgment and should have some kind of punishment but not the same as someone who intentionally kills or injures another human being. My heart goes out to John the poor young man that is now in a coma and his family but even they must see how wrong this is.
What can be done to help put this 17 year old with others his age with a similliar crime he also needs to have a re-trial. You are all in my prayers

Hulk Hogan and his family should be blacklisted from Hollywood and nobody should give them an entertainment contract ever again - now that would be Karma.
