Wrestling changed then from becoming... a live spectator sport drawing the money. Territorial live. The big money then became television. Like it is in all sports. I remember when I broadcast football for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. I did two years of Buccaneer football down in Tampa. And I remember that Hugh Culverhouse paid off. He was the owner of the Bucs.

He paid all his bills, including all the players, everything with his TV contract. So that people in the seats, that was all his profit. All the people that sold out Tampa Stadium every week to see the Bucs play, that was pure Hughes money. Because the TV contract paid for all the rest.

We're still part of the two-party dictatorship. I like to steal that term from my friend Ralph Nader. Ralph used that, the two-party dictatorship, because that's what it is. It's a two-party dictatorship. The only problem, you want to know where I'm at? It's simple. It's real simple. I took an oath over 50 years ago. And I took this oath before I married my wife.
