Wake up, how many more will die until someone say enough is enough? There are kids doing steriod because they want to be buffed to play football. Wake up, there are to many deaths occurring.

Actually I was thinking maybe it's time to get the story back to what it's really about. Two innocent people died. Lets focus on that, instead of using this as a soapbox to discuss the subject "Why I think perfessional wrasslin is dum and all you'uns that watches it, is just a bunch a stupid, cousin datin, redneck idjits." Ultimately, it's different strokes for different folks, and when you sit there and try to make people believe that your way is the only right way, and we should all agree with you, you only make yourself look like an idiot. If you don't like it then change the channel, and if you don't want to read news stories involving wrestlers, then don't read them, because quite frankly, your mere presence hear just to demean what this story is actually about just so you can say wrestling is stupid has lowered my intelligence by six points since i read that comment. It was uninformed, uneducated, narrow-minded, and insensitive to memory of the two innocents whose lives were taken, and to the surviving members of the families left to deal with why this happened.

Oh yeah now boxing that is a real sport, I saw some of the Mayweather/De Lahoya fight, I have seen slow dances with more excitement. I think at one point Mayweather even napped through part of a round. Boxing, what a joke, next I suppose you going to preach on the virtues of Tommy Morrison

why are you people debating on whether or not wresteling is fake. For crying out loud yes wresteling is fake. If you think it is real then you need to get a clue. However, it might be fake but it takes alot of work jumping from ropes and doing drop kicks. They are no diffrent from stunt men. But what does it matter if it is fake or not. It is pure entertainment. This is no boxing match. Just like when you go to the movies and see action movies it is all fake!!!!

PPS Also, apparently the tide has turned for celebrities and crime (Phil Spector, Paris with 'just' a dui) . . . another factor that may have caused him to escalate things from maybe an initial impulsive assault that to a mass murder/suicide (?)

PS I wonder now with there having been so much media frenzy over spouses murdering their wives (OJ, Robert Blake, etc), especially if they were pregnant (Scott Peterson, the Hackings, Bobby Cutts, etc), whether there's going to be a rise in these murder-suicides of spouses instead.

Like maybe steroids played a part, but maybe it's also an alarming trend that needs to be carefully watched (?)

I agree with the last comment, it does take a large amount of athleticism, however a lot of the decisions are scripted, and they do follow a storyline based on what the company thinks will sell the most tickets and increase pay per view buy rates.

"Wow, really? You must have put some real deep thought into that remark. Get a life and quit being so pathetic. I am tired of reading your comments."

Well I appreciate you attempting to redirect the discourse by not responding to my name-calling of you after you set the ball in motion - however, I do wish you had followed your own example in the first place. Why didn't you just say that there are enough articles with which to comment on the war in Iraq, so could we please just leave any references to Halliburton out of this one for once? I still think under First Amendment the responsibility lies with you to look away, but I would have respected your request if you had just said you were frustrated.

Clearly certain topics have peoples' nerves frayed, so I think it helps to remember that everybody is entitled to an opinion - something I pledge to do as well :)
