I just watched something quite interesting.......

By Double A

On this boring Wednesday Night, I turned on the ol' Comcast OnDemand and came across a very interesting episode of MTV's True Life entitled "I'm a Fanboy". It followed the life of 3 people and their obsession with certain what would be classified as nerdy things. While all were interesting, the one that really got me thinking was this one guy who is 26 years old, has a crush on a 17 year old girl, and both are beyond obsessed with Power Rangers.

The guy in particular was insanely obsessed. Need proof? Below is a video of when he and his crush went on a casual date to a local comic book store. And the made a discovery of a good condition Dragon Dagger from Power Rangers. Oh and by the way, listen to what he says about his crush. Remember, he is 26 and she is just 17.



Now while I am not here to make fun of this poor putz, he I see a lot of him in a typical wrestling fan. And we know for certain there are a lot of wrestling fans out there that are just 10 times worse then this guy. Hell, there is a little bit of him in all of us. Think of about the first you ever got tickets to a wrestling event. Or maybe you met your favorite wrestler.

We are all nerds or dorks for wrestling. Otherwise I wouldn't be hosting a wrestling talk show, or even writing this blog. And by the way, you wouldn't be reading this for that matter if you weren't one. The moment you just saw above is what we like to call "marking out". Just 10 short days ago, many of you were marking out when you saw either Bret Hart or Hulk Hogan return.

What's the purpose of this blog you ask? To make you aware that us wrestling fans aren't the only ones who have those kind of moments. Be proud that you like professional wrestling. Don't hide it like it's something shameful. Ten years ago, things were very different and being a wrestling fan was classified as "cool". Today in 2010 it's like, "Oh God". You know what I say to the detractors, screw you and look at my US Title Championship Belt. And if you have the ba.....I mean the nerve, give them a good swift kick in the crotch.

And in case your wondering, the guy went with his crush, her twin sister, and their friend to a concert of a band that played songs from the Power Rangers. And afterward, they shared a bed. Draw your own conclusions.
