TheWarrior97, I agree with you to a certain extent in regards to the Warrior as a role model. Don't get me wrong, I think there are a lot of good things about him that people can learn from! In fact, I wish he would return to the ring and include those things in his character! It's just that there are some other things I'm not too sure about as far as whether or not it'd be good for young people to look up to him.

It's like the old story:

"The story goes that a fellow was walking past a cemetary when he noticed a tombstone with the following inscription:

As you are now, so once was I.
As I am now, you are sure to be.
So may I say, as now I lie,
Prepare yourself, to follow me.

The gentleman took out a piece of chalk and wrote underneath the inscription:

To follow you I'm not content,
Until I know which way you went."

Just like John Wooden says, "Choose your role models with care." Anyways, like I said earlier, there are some things about him that are cool to look up to, but there are some other things he's done--particularly before his wrestling career--that are definately not very role-model-ish.

Let's hope for a return to the ring, or, at least a public appearance that everyone can see!

From,

The Teetster, brother! (They say I look like Beaker!)
