I didn't know the US Army was undefeated like Bradshaw claimed. I must have imagined Vietnam.

Because, when I think of our flag, I think of Bradshaw, in all his homoerotic glory.

Quick Question, is Bradshaw a natural blonde or did he dye his hair?

I think those dark roots answer your question.....unless you're just being sarcastic.

I'm surprised that more of you aren't disgusted by this - not for the homoeroticism of it, but by what it essentially represents: Bradshaw as the 'ultimate American' of WWE. This guy shouldn't be speaking for Zanzibar. He's a bull-headed ignoramus with no ability to speak beyond the unsubstantiated propoganda party line. I've disliked him since his absolutely idiotic parking lot comment from the Sept. 13/2001 Smackdown. The few passages from his columns that I was able to digest were mostly about his stance on the war on Iraq, and they pissed me off because he wasn't even open to what the other side had to say. It was basically "Dubya's right and we should all just accept it".

 

Not only that, and I hope I'm not the only one that sees how - even though he's not on the same roster and he hasn't teamed with him since the horrible, horrible RAWs of April and May of last year - he tries to leech off Austin's heat with the "I drink a lot of beer" bullshit. I won't even get into the super annoying 'chugging' gesture he does during matches. He's like Hacksaw Jim Duggan with the flag-pimping but at least Duggan was consistenly over. I'll choose to leave alone the whole "I have a New York haircut but I'm STILL Texas, dammit" thing. Why WWE uses him as a spokesperson is beyond me. At least he isn't getting pushed. And at least his stupid columns don't get posted here.

Odds are they use him for the simple fact that the guy is rather intelligent, as scary as that sounds, and he is heavily patriotic.

 

It doesn't matter what his wrestling gimmick is.

 

Also, when in the hell did the damn record of an army really matter? The only reason he says it is to pump up soldiers more than likely. Just like cheerleaders say "We're #1" even though their team is in last place and hasn't won a game.

 

I do find it odd they don't use Angle but then I remembered his Angle is that of a hero and he is out after surgery.

 

Was Bradshaw in the service? Cause that might have something else to do with it.

It's best not to get upset over things like that. You have to remember that the WWE prefers to look at things in a black and white perspective. That and they always think they're right. In many ways, the WWE is a populist company. I just try to ignore it and move on.

 

There's nothing else I can do about it.

The WWF is just doing what it always has, being extremely pro America to get the cheap pop, from the Iron Sheik to Hogan beating up Russians(and Canadians playing Russians) to headbutting the Soviet flag, to La Resistance, to Bradshaw. Why other countries watch any of it boggles my mind, certainly there has to be local wrestling in other countries.

Wow. That very well may be the gayest photograph I've ever seen posted on this board. But ayway, I can sit here and bash Bradshaw all I want, but I think MH allready explained what I think perfectly.

No no! You have to remember - Vince told me on WWF TV well over 6 years ago I was fed up with black and white characters that insulted myintelligence. Instead, I wanted three-dimensional characters and SHADES OF GREY!!!!!!!!

 

Seriously, Bradshaw sucks.
