JR's Blog: Thursday Update

Posted: Feb 26th 2010 By: CMBurnham

Hope every one is well...really busy, important week so free time is challenging. Didn't want anyone to think that I had forgotten my friends or was "slacking." On line biz has been great and I hope that we can keep it rolling.

Still working on new changes to the site. Will have them done this weekend for sure. In the contact us facet of the site please know that this is for business contacts only and not for wrestling questions, etc. I had never been able to review them until last nite and I had 5,000 unread emails. The vast majority were wrestling questions that should have gone on the Q&A section. Please do me a favor and only use Contact Us if you have a BBQ business question. Thanks.

Today is Ric Flair's birthday and we send Naitch our utmost best wishes. We exchanged text messages this morning and it meant alot to each of us. Ric was in OK spirits. I love the guy and for him to publicly say that I was the "sound track" to his career at the WWE HOF function in Orlando was awesome. I'll write more about some Flair memories this weekend.

I got to answer a few Q&A's so check them out.

Just got word that I have airline issues. Not cool.

Drinking a great deal..too much stress...Diet Lime Green Tea Snapple.

Don't see how some folks think that UFC President Dana White isn't doing anything short of a tremendous job running UFC. I have become a HUGE fan of the MMA genre and have gotten to know many key individuals within that industry. Their best days are yet to come.

Is Arn Anderson Hall of Fame worthy in the future? Hell, yeah. Double A is one of the most underrated wrestlers that I ever had the privilege of working with over the years. AA doesn't need the Horsemen to be considered for any honor. We even worked together in Mid South.

Yes, some NFL team will take a chance on Tim Tebow at QB but likely not in round one of the NFL Draft of which I am going to watch from start to finish even if I do have to gaze at Mel Kiper's hair.

I really enjoyed the innovation, feeling of newness, and potential of NXT. Anxious to follow it weekly. Love the combo of reality TV and wrestling. I'm very interested to see NXT evolve and loved the commentary.

That's it for now but check back often and follow my travails on Twitter. I'm in the midst of an interesting week.

Thanks for your biz and support.

Boomer Sooner!
