Jim Ross Speaks On Mick Foley, Jenny McCarthy, Manny Ramirez, More

New JR blog entry...
Jim Ross has a new blog entry up. Highlights are below.
On Mick Foley: Before I go any farther, a tip of the black hat goes to Mick Foley for his contributions to Friday Night Smackdown this week. The closing segment with Edge and Foley verbalizing before physicality broke out in a major way is the type of "in ring wrestling talk" that as a fan I love. Edge and Foley rose to the occasion in a mesmerizing final segment on Friday Night Smackdown. The follow up for this incident should make for an interesting broadcast next Friday night.
On Jenny McCarthy: It was great seeing Jenny McCarthy again for the taping of the SNME after so many years. Jenny came to Stamford and did an announcer audition that yours truly participated in at the Hamilton Avenue studio. Jenny was unpretentious and a beautiful woman who was pretty versed in sports and one could tell had been a "Tom Boy" growing up. She literally has not aged a bit and was just a lovely and gracious around the WWE folks as one could ask. Jenny's Generation Rescue needs your help to fight autism and any thing you can afford to contribute is most appreciated. No donation is too small. Check out www.wwe.com for more info. BTW Jenny's job interview back in the day was one of the very best of any "outside talent" that I personally was involved with or witnessed. She has a great sense of humor.
On the Manny Ramirez trade: The BoSox getting a disgruntled Manny Ramirez out of their locker room and sent packing to the L.A. Dodgers will serve Boston well over the long haul. The long season with ample travel and the pressure of winning is challenging enough without a multi-millionaire cry baby whining "poor me" every day in the locker room. Over the years, many international wrestling tours have been marred by disgruntled travelers whose only agenda is them and not the team. "Dressing Room Lawyers" need to go and naive individuals who think that "leopards change their spots" are kidding themselves. Manny wanted out and Boston was smart enough to accommodate their high dollar slugger.
"Then Jenny McCarthy flashed her hoss tits at me bah gawd, and I popped a Boomer Sooner Boner!"

I swear, there's days that you can't tell that these comments are moderated.
Usually, they end in 'y'.

Sorry, peers. 411 isn't PG rated like WWE is now. should they pre-empt their comments by saying "Earmuffs"?

Guess we're not going to get the real JR answers until he's done with WWE, because all he's been doing is kissing ass.
Maybe WWE should take after Sox. Carlito has been unhappy for awhile and they're still trying to make him stay.

More importantly What does John Cena Think about the Manny Ramirez trade?

STONE COLD STEVE AUTISM, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!

"Though those hoss-like tits were temptin' ol JR like rich barbecue sauce, it was soon back to thoughts of Steve Austin clad only in assless chaps, bah gawd!"

They should more be edited to ensure the comments are informative or in the case of the comments on here so far, clever and funny instead of just valiant attempts.

i think it's funny that JR talks bad about manny when he did the same thing. Whinning when he got traded to smackdown. i wonder what he thinks of brett farve lol.

More importantly was Jim Carrey with her?
Posted By: William (Guest) on August 04, 2008 at 04:11 PM
I disagree with J.R. about wrestlers becoming poor. When that many are not well off, then it becomes more of a system problen and not a person problem. I'm not saying that you don't control your own life, but if it gets this bad, then we have to start thinking outside the box.

does anyone else think it would be really funny to watch the Great Khali try to blog ?
Posted By: DumDum (Guest) on August 04, 2008 at 04:47 PM
Please tell me Vince didn't choose Stephanie Wyand over Jenny McCarthy.

"does anyone else think it would be really funny to watch the Great Khali try to blog ?"
He'd type in his native language. What would be funny about that?

well.. if his hands are anything like the big show's (whom i've met) pressing one key could often lead to pressing 3 or 4 for a man his size..
plus his on-screen character is not exactly the cool calm cat..
...you actually need me to explain how this is funny ?
Posted By: DumDum (Guest) on August 04, 2008 at 06:33 PM
How soon we forget. J.R. went on a tantrum of a blog when he got traded to Smackdown. If he sees something he really hates on WWE TV, I'm sure he would mention it. Jeez, it's like you expect him to be as cynical as some of you are.

I wonder how many ceiling tiles she counted while laying on her back on Vince's casting couch.

Are you talking about Cena?
Posted By: Nervous Pervous (Guest) on August 04, 2008 at 08:02 PM
Let me ask everyone a question. If your employer was treating you like shit and making you seem like the bad guy, would you want to stay at that job? Before Good ol' JR speaks out and puts his foot in his mouth like he did when he get drafted to Smackdown, he should look at himself and get the balls to do what Manny did so he could be happy.
Posted By: Joey (Guest) on August 04, 2008 at 10:58 PM
So let me get this: JR thinks Manny Ramirez is a "dressing room lawyer" who needs to go. Yet he claims he's not against wrestling unions and whined/pinched a fit to the extent he said he "almost retired" the day after he was drafted to SmackDown.
Geesh, JR really, we know you need something to write about but this sure comes off overly-hypocritical Boomer Sooner!
Go Longhorns!
