WWE Daily Reader Responds to the Hogan Tapes
One of my readers, Charlene, left this message about the Hogan tapes. Thank you, Charlene, for sharing your story and personal thoughts - I dearly hope that the Hogans have a chance to read this and that it may help them to understand how it feels to be on the other side of the situation.
I have been furious since I heard the tapes. I never want to see these people on TV again. These are shallow, ignorant people, with no compassion at all. This family’s true colors are being shown to the world.
My heart goes out to the John Graziano and his family. I can’t even fathom what they are going through. I lost my son, Jon 19 years old, in a high speed DUI crash. He was killed instantly; his best friend was driving the car. There were five boys in the car, all friends since childhood. And my son was the only fatality. There was anger at first towards the driver, and he did do “real� prison time. At the time the DA said “well lets see how sorry he is when he gets out.� He was sorry, and he told my other son that a day doesn’t go by that he doesn’t think of Jon. I have talked with him several times, his remorse is real. He was responsible for his best friend’s death and he has to live with that.
So though I know of my loss and the pain and the repercussions to our family, I can’t even imagine what the Graziano family is going through having their son there, but not really there. Not only do they have to live with the knowledge that their precious son is never going to be the same. They have to deal with a “family� that seems to have no conscience or remorse for their son.
Nick is blubbering about not having a window awwww, and being all by his self. Poor baby. The idiot can still walk, talk and has all his functions….well maybe not his mind, but it looks like he never had that! But at least it has given him time to think. Mind you not any inner soul searching BUT trying to set up reality show…where he can make the most money off of this tragedy! I’ve got a title for his new reality show, Nick the Devil in Disguise and His Evil Family
Linda crying that she is the victim, that she is missing her son? What the hell does she know about missing a son? For God’s sake she is talking to him. She can see him, touch and hug him and have him respond. He will be out in eight months. The Graziano family is sentenced to a life time, and she is the victim? Then she is going on about the victim’s family wanting money? Let me tell you something that I’m not sure you will not understand Linda. All the money in the world will won’t replace what they have lost!
And to you Hulk Hogan, you were a hero to my boys when they were growing up. You are blaming the victim that he must have done something wrong that caused this? By the way Oh Holy Hogan…. enlighten me please to what my son did so wrong that he died? Going to school to be a firefighter? Wanting to eventually go into animation? Not crying to his father, who has several Emmys, about getting him his own show? Maybe instead of getting a reality show Nick should be sent to the front lines in Iraq and then we will see how positive he is when he comes back!!

I’ve known Terry Bollea for years & am STUNNED at his behavior. Maybe it’s the compilation of things recently; but this is something I find hard to figure out.Being famous & a dad isn’t easy, I’m sure-but this is completely off the page for him. My thoughts & prayers go out to both families.
