Hulk Hogan Cries About Kids, Life

Hulk Hogan got all choked up while chatting on CNN last night, discussing his love for God and his shock at how his life has turned out. He also said he believes the accident, which left Nick’s BFF John Graziano comatose, happened for a reason. “This is to make Nick a better person,” he said. “This is to make John a better person.” Clip above.

From Nicks own mouth during a rides magazine interview :
Wow, these must break necks when riding down Ocean Drive.
The yellow Supra and yellow Viper are +++&&&@(%^`_$($^# magnets for sure. I mean, the green and the silver appeal more to men, ’cause a guy knows what he’s looking at and will drool over it. But girls see the yellow, and panties start dropping off.

Jeez, talk about a flashy color. Anyway, most 16-year-olds haven’t had enough practice yet to become a pro drifter.
[Laughs] Let’s just say I have a terrible driving record.

Uh-oh. Looks like someone has a story to tell.
In my silver Viper, I was driving from Miami to Tampa. I got pulled over going 107 [mph] and the guy let me off. He’s like, “Hey, I know who you are, just keep going, ya know.” Dude, I got back on the road and two minutes later I get pulled over going 113 [mph]. Another highway patrol from the same county said, “I just heard on the radio that my buddy pulled you over and let you go. I’ma let you go this time. It’s your second warning. You get pulled over again, you’re probably going to go to jail.” Three minutes later, [I was] doing 123 [mph] in a 50 [mph zone]. The guy is like, “Hey, I just heard you got pulled over twice in the last 10 minutes. I got to write you a ticket.”

I think they need to leave you all alone. most of it is jealous that you have money. hey i don’t have money but still they don’t need to be doing what they are doing. Yeah its sad what happen but with that kid he choose to get in the car so it not really nicks fault and he feels bad enough. we are all human and make mistakes. i believe they need to treat celebs like normal people. this kind of stuff happens all the time so why don’t pick on others the same way not because you have money. Sorry and i don’t beleive what i hear or read cuz they make it sound alot worse and add things to a story to get attention. Our world is so messed up any more what ahppen to freedom of speech or even freedom and if no one stand up us we all will be slaves soon. But I feel bad for you guys and i wish you the best and hope everything goes your way.

Surely you jest? June 19, 2008 at 8:47 pm

Brooke, er… Heather, it has nothing to do with money or jealousy. What a ridiculous statement! And you’re right, of course it’s not Nick’s fault. Mean people who don’t have money and are just jealous must have held a gun to his head and forced him to drink alcohol. Poured it down his throat. Then those same mean people made him get behind the wheel of his race car.The very same car he’d received numerous tickets in. Then, with the gun still held to his head, they told him to race the other car and put everyone’s lives in danger and culminating in killing his friend. You’re totally right, I can’t believe I’ve been so blind. It was never Nick’s fault, was it?

‘m sure he feels real bad about it all, I heard all about it when he called John a negative person. All us little people who are so jealous because supposedly don’t have money and work at Walmart can see how bad everyone in your, er, their family feels.

Pssst – For someone with money you’d think that your spelling and grammar wouldn’t be quite so atrocious.

HULK HOGAN IS THE BEST

abdin June 21, 2008 at 2:59 pm

SORRY BROTHER HOGAN but don’t worry things will get better i learned that from you
i hope nick gets out of jail and everything is back to normal for you man. i really feel bad.

carol June 21, 2008 at 8:38 pm

Hulk, I wish you the best. When ever I hear this story it just makes me think of when I was young and driving around with my friends. I did some pretty stupid things way back when. And what happened to John was an accident. I know Nick has some growing up to do, but in no way can I believe he wanted this to happen. What if the shoe was on the other foot? What if John was driving and Nick was in the hospital? Would people be so angry? – I don’t think so. This was an accident!!!

All the best brother. By the way I love Brooke’s music. Tell her to keep positive and make another CD.

jas June 21, 2008 at 9:20 pm

The public needs to leave Hulk Hogan and his family alone! Their obviously going thru alot already and everyone is just making the situation so much terrible. I hope and pray that the family gets back together…I hope Linda opens her eyes and realize she’s making a huge mistake, how can a woman her age be in love with a freakin child! I hope Linda realizes she’s making a fool out of herself, and that the lil’ kid she’s foolin around with is using her. Hulk I will keep you in my prayers your going through alot but don’t give up…keep God first and everything will work out.

Drunk driving is not an accident June 22, 2008 at 12:10 am

If this were just an “accident”, Nick wouldn’t be behind bars. When you drive drunk and then drag race and it results in killing someone, it ceases to be an accident. It’s a crime. People are angry because Nick has had multiple speeding tickets and yet his parents didn’t take away his race cars. Sadly, so many of us saw this coming. This is why you never give your minor children race cars or alcohol.

Still more of us are angry at the way the Bolleas have handled the aftermath. Had they taken responsibility and apologized, there wouldn’t be nearly as much of an uproar. But when you blame the victim, God, and everyone else instead of placing blame on the only one responsible, the DRIVER, people are going to get upset. Take some fricken responsibility. Otherwise, Nick will not learn a thing and get out of jail and do the same thing. Only this time, it might be you or me he kills on the road. Or our children.

Lastly, John is now in a VA hospital and his care is funded by our tax dollars. That’s not fair. He should be in a nice, private facility and the Bolleas should be paying for it, since this is their fault. We all do stupid things when we’re young, but youth doesn’t give us a free pass to act like ^^_++*“*$%+$^_ es and take someone’s life. It’s also why it’s important to be your child’s parent and not their friend. Discipline them, take away their driving privileges if they get tickets, etc.

Someone named Britta wrote this on TMZ, I’ll c&p it here as it’s worth repeating :
The age thing….. if he ain’t old enough to do the time and accept the civil penalties he should not be driving AT ALL. He agreed and his loving father signed that he was responsible enough to drive so guess what…. 17 ain’t no excuse. You want the privilege you have RESPONSIBILITY to drive safely. He cannot now claim he was not mature enough to appreciate the consequences of his actions after the fact. Bringing up their ages is IRRELEVANT to the facts of the case. If Nick is not old enough to be responsible for his actions he is not old enough to be driving. He can’t be driving but say “whatever happens I am not mature enough to be held responsible for but my Dad is real proud that I am a “precision driver” and that is how I make my living”.

BUD June 23, 2008 at 4:39 pm

When I was a teen I did some stupid things. At the time you feel invincible. I think we have all done stupid things in our younger years. It doesn’t matter if you grew up in the 50′s, 80′s, or now; it seems as if it is part of growing up. What if John was driving? THAT COULD BE NICK IN THE HOSPITAL! The fact that Nick is famous and has money has made the situation a national headline. There is no doubt that he was wrong, and I am sure this is a learning experience for him. It is hopefully a learning experience for many across America so that others do not end up like poor John.
Everything happens for a reason, we just don’t know why sometimes. I feel for the Graziano family; and I hope that they have nothing to do with the stupid threats the Hogan’s are getting. I feel for the Hogan family as well. HULK wrestled his whole life and suffered many injuries and still suffers today, just to support his family and to make sure they wouldn’t want for anything. What does he have to show for it, a son in prison and his wife of many many years going nuts. HEY BROOKE KEEP IT TOGETHER!!!!! I hope and pray Linda comes to her senses before it is too late.
And HULK, keep your head up… remember say your prayers, excercise and take your vitamins brother. Never lose faith, teach your kids that too.
The only thing I can really say is good luck and God Bless to the Graziano and the Hogan families.

LINDA WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU DOING????? NICE EXAMPLE IN A TIME OF NEED FOR YOUR FAMILY!!!!!

Ya know, I really do feel sorry for this whole family. I mean, watching them on TV, they seemed pretty happy for the most part, and then to hear this…it is a shame. But if you’ve ever noticed, all these celeb families or couples or whatever that decide to make their life a reality tv show…doesnt work out so well. It ALWAYS turns out horribly. It really is sad to see this family fall apart after seeing how much they supported each other in the begining and just watching Team Hogan fall apart so fast is a real disappointment. I don’t know if all of the rumors of them are true, but if they are, I really hope that they can work everything out and become a happy family again.

Chantilly June 24, 2008 at 3:30 pm

I think that everyone needs to get off the Hogan’s backs. What people are failing to realize is that they are only human. These types of things happen every day. I just feel so sorry for Hulk. People always want to laugh and make jokes about other peoples personal lives when they really need to look at the whole picture. Yes, Nick is in jail, but Hulk is having it the hardest. Everybody is critcizing him in every way. And no one should get mad about the phone conversations because it was supposed to be personal. No one is the exact same way around family as they are with everyone else. Hulk Hogan is getting older now and I just hate it that his life is in turmoil right now. AND HE CAN MENTION GOD ALL HE WANTS.

Tonya June 30, 2008 at 2:43 pm

It amazes me at the depth of some peoples ability to lack any compassion whatsoever. The Hogans are dealing with their own turmoil related to this accident involving Nick and his friend. It wasn’t deliberate. It was an ACCIDENT. The media and public in general should lay. The Hogans have enough going on and the guilt Hulk Hogan is feeling is evident in his eyes and in his tone. This is a situation where no one wins and complicating things by constant negativety and finger pointing is a waste of time and will amount to nothing. Nick is serving his time as required by law. Nothing more can be asked of him. We were all young once and no one is perfect. Those who want to blame the Hogans and rant and rave about how horrible they are have obviously never had to deal with any real tragedy in their own life or any accident that was never meant to happen, but did. It is a sad situation and one that Nick and his family will have to live with forever as well as John. It’s a horrible fate for all involved. Comment for Jill: I would be careful what I believed as far as the media goes. And we are all sure you’re parenting would have so MUCH better for the Hogan children. Some of us are simply perfect with never a mistake to be made.

Darren July 11, 2008 at 2:40 am

I think that everything happens for a reason…so I do believe what Hogan says about nick…and I think that and I think what Linda did to her family was wrong and I don’t understand how she could do that to her family. I mean every relationship has its bad times but come on you don’t leave your family cuz of some hard times. If I was Hogan I’d probably be in jail with nick for beating up lindas new boyfriend. But that’s just me. And I hope that everything works itself out over a little time for the hogans.

jim riggen July 23, 2008 at 7:32 pm

I cant believe that the skank linda hogan is acually doing all the work to show that she is a skank. The comment about him being the best sex ever wow theres a classy comment to make. Were finally seing her true colors beyond what weve seen on the t.v. program. I hope the judge sees all these comments that she has made about the sex and the racing and the injured kids mom. I would really like to hear the kids real feelings about this kid who’s seeing their skank of a mom.

jim riggen July 23, 2008 at 7:51 pm

we all have free will given to us by god. He didnt make nick or this kid do what they did, they chose to do it period. God will always be there for us when we come to him. If we choose not to except god in our lives and make poor or dangerous choices he lets us be responsible for those choices, he does not cause them but he lets us be accountable for them.

Kira July 27, 2008 at 7:43 pm

Brooke should also stay mad at her father just not at her mom, he’s (Hulk Hogan) is the one that cheated on her mom in the first place. Brooke’s mom is probably hurt and just using the 19 year because shes scared and embrassed. Brooke’s mom is grown and so is her 19 year boyfriend…Brooke remember your father cheated on your mother so stop putting you mom down tv for dating a 19 year, your mom is human !!!!

Neil July 28, 2008 at 4:07 pm

These people are losers. Who cares?

Laura September 30, 2008 at 6:26 pm

In my opinion from watching the show it’s obvious Hulk Hogan is extremely obsessive controlling and overprotective in every aspect imaginable. which I belive made every day life in his household almost impossible and unbearable at times for his wife. I can understand how she must feel having a young 19yr old boy toy. He’s young, but legal! I think their both using each other for the time being. She is not doing anything wrong, after all who is the real &!_$)@%_^%&^~*& hole here? He did cheat first. Now he’s throwing a tantrum, He needs to get over it! Suck it up! It’s a different story when the shoe is on the other foot.. As for his son, as a “parent” Hulk Hogan should have been a bit more firm with Nick and a little more lenient on Brooke. Nick was given too much freedom and not enough tough love, as where Brooke was not given enough freedom, so don’t be surprised to see Brooke acting out. Bad comparrison but, what happens when a caged animal gets loose?
