— ESPN.com has posted an interview with Hulk Hogan. In it, Hogan talks about Bart Scott from the New York Jets and his pro wrestling-like promo after the Jets-Pats game last week. “It was like one of my mid-’80s promos, and all that was missing were a few ‘What are you gonna dos?’ and some lightning bolts in there. It was right on the money. I think it’s cool that [Scott] is stepping up and showboating it a bit, because it’s about personality and entertaining people, too. I could tell Bart had been watching wrestling, and it’s pretty cool because a lot of these guys are afraid to step outside the box. … Sometimes when you say stuff you believe it and it happens, Hogan said. When asked if Scott could make it in pro wrestling, he said: “Oh yeah. When his career’s over and he wants to make some real money, tell him to give me a call and we’ll break him in the right way.” Real money? This coming from a dude who just took a pay cut!
