What will come first, Peace in the Middle East or a Pittsburgh Pirates winning season.

I think peace in the Middle East is an oxymoron and will never happen as their civil war has endured for ages. I think Pittsburgh has to keep a core of young players long enough to give themselves a chance. I'll go with the Pirates in a close one.  

Do you feel Pete Rose should be in the Hall of Fame?

Baseball...absolutely. WWE...not so sure.   

Hey jr. What is your favorite baseball team

It used to be the Yankees when I was a kid. I don't follow MLB that closely until the playoffs and then I generally pick a team to root for.  

Brock Lesnar vs Shane Carwin @ UFC 106... what do you think of this fight? Carwin is pretty much almost as big as Brock and has bigger gloves than Brock.. his KO power is tremendous (he KOed Gabe Gonzaga with a jab), he is 11-0 (all his fights have ended within the first 3 minutes).... any predictions? I think shane is an overrated hype train, hes fought all cans besides gabe gonzaga (who handled him until shane used that big right hand of his)... Brock by TKO/KO round 1.

Should be a good battle....can Carwin go 2-3 rounds....can Lesnar avoid Carwin's bombs....both men have advanced amateur wrestling skills....until someone proves that they can beat Brock, I will still hang my hat on Lesnar. However, in MMA anyone can be beat which in turn makes most of their bouts fun to watch.  

What do you think of Victoria (former WWE diva) saying she wants to fight Kim Couture (Randy Couture's wife or ex wife, i dunno)?

I'm all for Victoria aka Lisa Marie Varon getting into MMA and think that Women's MMA is going to be a potentially big deal to Strike Force coming off the heels of Carano-Cyborg if Showtime and Strike Force follow up in a timely manner with the ladies and set out to make new stars.

Hello J.R. from Idaho again (as in Boise State, not the U of I from up north. With your loyalty to University of Oklahoma, and an MMA fan, if scheduling allowed, would you personally be allowed to call a game or an MMA event ? I've heard of wrestlers working independent matches as well as their "day job", so to speak.

The MMA stuff would likely be considered a conflict of interest of which I get due to the competition for the PPV dollar, etc. However, the OU Football situation seems to me as if it would be a different matter altogether. If I had the chance to broadcast OU Football I would do it in a heartbeat no matter the consequences.
