Just had a cousin at the age of 20 die a few weeks ago of text messaging someone on her cell phone and she hit a cement barrier while doing it. They had to use wax to restructure part of her face at the funeral. Be careful out there. I may sound like a wussy, but rather be a wussy if I have my choice. There's a place for speed in the right enviroment.

You sound like an old man... but that only means you've learned your lessons young. I'd rather be a wuss than dead. Sorry to hear about your cousin.

"Lifelong Medical Care" indeed.

Its very sad for all involved.
Its not easy to see your 17-year old son be blamed for a horrific car accident that will forever impact the lives of several families, and then see your son go to jail for 8-months and live with the nightmares that will last a lifetime.

Whether your 17 or 50, speed kills, if you're going to drag race, take it to a track.
Because if this would have happened to you, it would be a life changer.

Yeah... the Hulkster is probably one of the nicest celebs you'll ever meet.

Agreed.. my grandfather was in professional wrestling himself and somehow I started watching Hulk's matches on Eurosport Channel when I was little so I'm a lifelong fan.
If the Hogan family was any ordinary family it would not be that big of an interest to the press, be it a celebrity family with a son who's into driving you immediately become a role model that people look up to, and when the dad has been through a lot in life all he wants for his kids is to be happy.. too happy sometimes, which leaves the realisation part that he needs to teach them pretty much out of sight. Just thinking what I would do in his situation out loud here..
Having said this, I just hope that they come out OK in the end. I didn't catch any new stuff about the Hulkster's divorce?

[DodgeViper01]

I can only imagine the financial side of this. Wonder what the family is asking for?

anyone else besides me wonder if the divorce is a complete farse and a clever way to protect assets during a huge impending lawsuit?

Unlikely because:
1. rumor has it he slept with some young chick (friend of his daughter's?) and got caught
2. how would the divorce protect assets, the son is the son of each parent, so no matter which has the money, if the parents' money is able to be obtained, then divorce wouldn't seem to change that

Also do not think the divoce is to hide money.

I really think after Hulk stopped doing all that travel a couple years ago and was staying home they realized they may not have had all that much in common and go on each other nerves. Happens to many recently retired couples.
