When I first read the book with the longest name ever, it was right before I became "smart" or a "smark" or what ever the hell we are. So, now I'm reading it again. After reading all the commentaries by wrestlers, discussing shit with you fools, absorbing everything I have for the past 6 years (damn, that makes me sound old to myself :(). Anyhow, it book makes a lot more sinces, like I now know who Shane Douglas is, and all of that gay shit.

BTW, did Flair write his, or was there a ghost writter, beucause I don't wanna read a haunted book.

Also...what the hell is up with people writing their books before the retire or are close to it. I mean Foley was nearing the end of his career. Flair should be retired by now, so he is cool. But like Lita, and Edge and the Hardies wrote theres still while they were young (plus now I guess the all could add a new chapter). I don't know, maybe I'm just complaining.

I've read Hogan's book, and I thought it was a self serving piece of garbage myself... no offense or anything, I'm a HUGE Hogan mark... but his book was terrible

I liked his second more since he talked about stuff that was more fresh.

Dynamite's book is solid, talks about the effects steroids and the lifestyle had on him.

Roddy Piper's book is awesome, just for the fact that he makes himself out to be the god of wrestling.

This was the first really long book that I ever read.

Foley is Good was the second.

Not much of a reader.

I also bought the Have a Nice Day book on tape. It's 3 cassettes of Mick himself reading the book for about 4 hours. Pretty great.
