I hate sports

Boxing or wrestling makes me cringe in absolute terror. It is a sport I am aware. All that blood... It's not for me. Is the $MONEY$ worth the pain? The disfigurement?

I recommend you read Mick Foley's book 'Have a nice day'.
He worked as a professional wrestler in America for more than 20 years.

In it he tells how he got started and why he kept on doing it despite the injuries; hassles from promoters and managers looking to make money from his efforts.

@Dayman I've never been into all that WWF/WCW stuff. But my son was from about the age of ten, so believe me. Any book on the subject, he wanted !!

@Picklebobble2 I'm a pretty big wrestling mark have a few book and like to read up on the backstage stuff and what they go through people like to just say wrestling is fake without knowing anything about it

@Dayman I read it and i thought it was interesting. Foley himself tends to look at it as a form of athleticism coupled with a bit of soap opera. and the more successful you become, the more bizarre it gets !

@Picklebobble2 its true it's no different then any other tv show it's "sports entertainment"
