I'm pretty sure they were bad guys, but my Gordon Solie days are fuzzy at this point.

They were always bad guys. I remember they gave Ted Dibiase (sp) a pile driver on the concrete floor and put him in a neck brace. Those were the good ole days.

I used to get pissed about the Rockers kind of stealing their gig way back when.

I remember those guys, I never followed the sport that much.

I remember the Freebirds. Late 70's through 80's. Hayes was the sneaky manager. BTW, pro wrestling is not a sport. It's now called sports entertainment.

Not judging, Vince McMahon calls it sports entertainment all the time. Nice way to say "Acting". Would you call the XFL football?

Don't be so touchy. I used to go to the "Rasslin" matches all
the time. Saw the Freebirds in person many times. Always had a good time and a lot of laughs.

Wouldn't waste my money now. It's so corny with all the little sub-plots it's pathetic. My son, now 21, who grew up idolizing Stone Cold says it sucks now. He even gave away his PS2 wrestling game cartridges.
