Yeah, there is nothing to replace the feeling of watching Wrestling as a kid and just being in complete awe of people like Hogan, Andre, Savage, and others. I wish that I could be like that again.
But in a way, knowing what I found out about Wrestling through the internet has in some ways made me appreciate the wrestlers themselves more than I ever could as a little kid. I respect them for the shit they go through backstage, the hard life they lead, the struggle it has taken to get to the WWE, and for how difficult it is to be a sports entertainer. I respect them because I know that even with all of the shit they've gone through, they are still busting their asses to entertain the fans, whether it is cynical smarks or gullable marks.
But I do have to agree with the article for the most part. It was pretty well written with alot of good points.
