Nicole, Hulk Hogan, Ryan Sampson, and the Mouth of the South Jimmy Heart

Hulk Hogan stopped by The Morning Mash Up to talk about his TNA Wrestling debut. He’s been on their staple show, TNA Impact for some time now, but tonight is the first night he’ll be getting in the ring in 10 years! Plus, starting tonight the show will move to Monday’s, going up against his old employer’s show, WWE Monday Night Raw. Here’s what the Hulkster had to say about his return:

Usually The Morning Mash Up is in a Super Bowl box pool, and last year Stan won the pool and a boatload of cash to go with it. This morning Stan brought up that they weren’t asked to participate this year. We think it was because when it came time for Stan to collect his winnings Stan didn’t tip the guy who was running the pool.

Stan had no idea he was supposed to tip the guy, he’s never heard of that rule before. Ryan’s never heard of it either, and he thinks if it does exist it’s pretty stupid. Stan is also quick to point out that when the guy running the pool paid up he was pretty sour about it, counting the money in a very angry manner. Another reason Stan didn’t think to tip him.

What do you do when it comes to sports pool etiquette? Do you have to tip the person running the pool?

Nicole’s father decided to pay for tickets so that she and her sister could fly to visit the family. Her father also offered to pay for a ticket for Nicole’s boyfriend to travel. Nicole asked her man if he wanted to go, knowing that they would be flying back during the Super Bowl.

Immediately, Rich and Stan gave her a look saying “do you know what you’re asking?” Almost 100 million people watch the Super Bowl every year. That’s 1/3 of the American population.

Is Nicole that clueless to ask her man to possibly miss some of, or all of, the Super Bowl? Are Rich and Stan wrong? Should her boyfriend go and spend quality time with the family in the sun and the sand and sacrifice watching the Colts and Saints go at it for the championship?

Elin: Yes, I’m Taking Half. Tiger: Half What?

Rich and Stan got into it with Nicole and Ryan over what the settlement with Tiger Woods and his wife would be if they got divorced. Nicole clearly thinks Tigers wife, Elin, deserves to get half of his money. While Nicole basis it as retribution for what Tiger did, Ryan believes that is what you get yourself into when you get married. Whether you cheat once, twice, or 19 times, you pretty much end up giving your wife or husband half your money.

While Rich and Stan agree that Elin should gain things in the divorce settlement they do not agree that she should get half of Tiger’s money. In this case it’s something ridiculous, like $300 million dollars. Tiger has earned a lot of that before he was married, and more importantly through his own hard work. Rich and Stan think she should definitely get millions, but not hundreds of millions.

As Rich would say, two wrongs (taking money out of spite) do not make a right. While it is an excess amount of money regardless, it is  ridiculous that she get an excess amount that will more than facilitate the rest of her life.

Which side do you take, Rich and Stan or Nicole and Ryan?

Psst…I’ll Be Taking All Your Money Now. Thanks!

So Tiger’s reported side piece count is now up to 10 women. At this point, if you’re Tiger’s wife what the hell do you do? Now, a woman from Tiger’s home was rushed to the hospital this morning. This is getting ridiculous! If you’re Mrs. Tiger Woods do you really save face by leaving after the revelation of 10 women? Should she have left after 1? 2? 3? Does she stay and collect her soon-to-be portion of the “Tiger Woods fund?” What do you think she should do?

You knew this was coming…..

Yesterday, Rich overheard people talking about the Yankee game and how they needed to do in the next game of the world series. The way these guys were talking, “they” wasn’t just the team, but the guys as well. They were talking about them as if they were a part of the team. There are so many of these kinds of people in sports – people who truly believe they are part of the team.

Nicole says there are tons of people like that with vampires now because of shows like True Blood and Vampire Diaries, and the Twilight movies and books. We all know someone who takes their hobby, passion, job, or interest waaaay to seriously. What does someone you know take so seriously that you want to say “Whoa! Slow down there tiger!”
