Pro wrestling legend Hulk Hogan, embroiled in a bitter divorce with his wife, Linda, told Rolling Stone magazine he can "totally understand" O.J. Simpson, the former football great found liable for the deaths of his wife and another man.
"I could have turned everything into a crime scene like O.J., cutting everybody's throat," Hogan said in the interview for a feature that will run in Friday's edition of the magazine.
"You live half a mile from the 20,000-square-foot home you can't go to anymore, you're driving through downtown Clearwater [Florida] and see a 19-year-old boy driving your Escalade, and you know that a 19-year-old boy is sleeping in your bed, with your wife... .
"I totally understand O.J. I get it," Hogan (http://topics.cnn.com/topics/hulk_hogan) said
A spokeswoman for Rolling Stone magazine confirmed the quote to CNN.
It has been widely reported that Linda Hogan (http://topics.cnn.com/topics/linda_hogan), 49, is dating a younger man. She filed for divorce in 2007 after nearly 25 years of marriage.


Hulk is going way over the top with that comment, but divorce laws today totally screw guys over, by and large.

If the judge doesnt simply give the wife everything, then it too often comes down to; 1) the kids want to be with Mommy, 2) the kids interests outweigh all other concerns, so 3) Mommy gets the kids, the house, the car(s) and the bank account is split, maybe.

So many guys wont marry these days due to the very plausible (for many of them 'probable') outcome b eing a divorce where they get financially raped by the family court system. This has a hugely negative impact on our demographic rates and illegitimacy hurts our children more than any other factor, despite the librul pretense that single parent homes are just as dandy as two parent homes.

But young men are too immortal to be concerned with that kind of bothersome thinking, while married men these days are too whooped to dare speak it.

It's only after the guys get taken to the cleaners that they realise what a sham our family court systems are today.

But by then its too late.

Boy those Hogans sure are a classy family. Pretty smart when you are going through a divorce to publicly state that you can sympathize with a wife murderer. Long way since wrestlemania 2.

Hulk's comment was way over the top, but do you remember not long ago when a woman filed for divorce because her husband cheated on her, and they never listened to the children or the mom? Here is one link..

Over the top? Absolutely.

But, like Blazer said, he just said what he was thinking.

I agree with the OP...the way divorce settlements are handled is totally crazy...men always seem to get the shaft.

He said what he was thinking......

Sometimes people should learn NOT to say what they are thinking. Geesh,really. Must every deep dark thought a person may have, be expressed publicly or even worse relayed to the press?

"Think about this: I buy you a car. You let another man drive around in the car. My car. Are you out of your ****ing mind? I don't even have a Ferrari, but if I saw someone driving my Pinto... I'm not saying O.J. should have killed her, but I understand." -- Chris Rock

I wonder how many men that have gone through it have thought the same thing?

I remember a guy I met down in Texas some years back.
He said:

"So, I drive by, and there's a guy.....you know.......living in MY house, sleeping with MY wife.......and, there he is.........cutting MY grass with MY lawnmower.

What else could I do? I shot him."

In the Hogan divorce, both children are legal adults. No need for custody battles or child support.

They will simply split the assets and Linda in all likelyhood will get a sizeable amount of Alimony, due to the fact she (at Hulk's expressed request) never worked a day after their marriage so that she would be available and devoted to him and their family.

This (effectively) leaves her with ZERO marketable skills, unless you call tanning, shopping, vinyl nail applications, sauna time, and multiple boob jobs and makeovers at the plastic surgeon marketable skills.

I don't. I'd say after 25 years of living with that man and putting up with his ********, she deserves a LOT more than she's gonna end up with.

YOU ROCK, Linda. Don't get even, get it ALL!!!! *He* chose to wander away from the marriage, not you.

Yeah, Toby Keith wrote a song about that. Except he didn't kill the new guy.

It's called "Who's that man running my life?"

AWESOME SONG.....I turn it up loud and clear whenever it plays.
