The Hogan family has been pretty assholeish (a word I just made up, and debated considerably about dropping or retaining the ‘e’) to the family of John Graziano, the man 17-year-old Nick Hogan made a vegetable for life after his drunken drag racing accident. Both Hulk and Linda have publicly blamed John for his condition, saying that he should have been wearing a seatbelt. Well, yeah he should, but it wouldn’t have been a big issue if their 17-year-old hadn’t been drunk and drag racing in the street. And didn’t crash into a palm tree.
Then last week Hulk went on Larry King and said the crash was God’s will – to make John a better person. Not surprisingly, these kind of statements have really riled up the Graziano family, and as a result, they’ve been threatening the Hogans. Oh boo freaking hoo.
Clearwater police are investigating threatening phone calls made by a member of John Graziano’s family to the family of Terry Bollea, also known as Hulk Hogan, according to Clearwater police spokesman Doug Matthews.
Matthews could not say which member of the Graziano family allegedly made the threats; nor could he say which member of the Bollea family received them.
Morris “Sandy” Weinberg, an attorney for Nick Bollea, 17, who is serving a jail sentence on a charge of reckless driving with serious driving bodily injury, confirmed that the police had listened to the threatening voicemails.
“Does the family take it seriously?” he asked. “Yes, they do.” No arrests have been made.
[From the St. Petersburg Times]
Well of course the Hogan family takes it seriously. When even minor bad stuff happens to them, it’s the end of the world. But they’re fine with supplying their minor son with alcohol, then letting him drive a suped up car. And anything that results from it is everyone else’s fault. But if someone dare to leave a threatening voice mail on their answering machine, there will be absolute hell to pay.
Get over yourselves Hogans. There is a special spot in hell for you. Until then, if every one of your days is twice as miserable as the Graziano family’s, you should considering yourselves really, really lucky.

Have you considered ‘assholesque’ (as in ‘Kafkaesque’), or is that pretentious?
They need allow this kid to serve his time and allow him to be a man about it, 😮
I also feel as tho the Hogan family owe the other family a public apology for all the cramp they have been saying in the media, This guy has lost his life and they are worried about a 17 year old brat that was underage drinking. All the females look like drag queens 😆
Clearwater Florida is Scientology central, are the Hogans Scientologists? If so I have a new reason to dislike them.
vdantev, I too have often wondered why the Hulk family would choose to live in the cradle of Scientology.
two words to define the Hogans:
WHITE TRASH!
Agreed @6 😆
Who the hell do they think they are? Hulk Hogan is a washed up wrestler and no one else in his family is a celebrity. Just because they had a reality show does not make them celebrities. It makes them money grubbers! They were proably broke before they took the gig and probably came up with the idea on their own. Face it, they are NOT Ozzy and his family. At least the Osbornes were open to truth.
Nick shuold have to visit John Graziano every day of his life after his short stint in jail and help with the daily tasks of taking care of someone in that condition and see what he has done! John’s family will never get a break from it. The man served our counttry and Nick takes him down! How SAD!!
NO ONE wants to see anyone from the Hoagn family in the news, on TV and certainly not singing! DOWN with The Hogans!!!
did i dream this, or is brook hogan getting her own reality show? please, please tell me it’s all a bad dream.
Hogan wants another reality show and VH1 hasn’t signed the paperwork, probably afraid of public reaction to a family that encouraged street racing and underage drinking that left a man with the top of his head missing and legally dead really.

Can you look at his head and think anything but “he was murdered by s spoiled drunk punk”?
This is all about money, but they are beyond shitty to drag that suffering family thru the mud for a few bucks. Murder is what happened that day.
Hogan needs the family to seem interesting to make more money. Sick.
I feel sorry for Brooke too. She seems to be the only sane one in her family.
The Hogans deserve a lot worse than threatening phone calls. Imagine if it had been Brooke in the passenger’s seat instead of John Graziano? At least then it would be entirely and solely visited upon them.
Oh, and from a linguistic standpoint, the “e” should be dropped, but them what coins the word gets to decide on its spelling.
“Assholish” is a commonly used term, and in this case it’s more than appropriate. Why not complain about Graziano getting blood on the seats, Hogan, you roid-addled narcissist?
Simon Scowl, “roid-addled narcissist” is hilarious 🙂
I like this adjective even better than “assholish” to describe the obnoxious Hogans: ASSHOLIER-THAN-THOU!
The Hogans – Absolutely the WORST American Family EVER. There is no excuse at all for these arrogant people – trailer trash backgrounds included. How disgusting and self-centered they all are. People like this are unwatchable, and I hope every TV producer realizes it. The best thing would be to never ever hear another thing about the Hogans again. I sincerely hope all their careers and fortunes tank, it would be karma – what they so richly deserve.
These trailer park trash fools are always yapping their traps about one thing or another. Can’t they just STFU and leave us in peace? I don’t care if Graziano’s family did threaten them, they deserve it for all of the crap they have said about John. Are they so ate up that they don’t realize how universally disliked they are and how little sympathy any of us has for them? I wish Graziano’s family would beat the hell out of Hulk and that sniveling little brat of a son just for being the douche bag losers that they are!
If my kid was a vegetable and some dipshit went on national TV to say he deserved it, and that it would somehow manage to make him a ‘better person’, I’ll guarantee you that I’d be doing more than threatening.
I’m not even sure I buy half the crap the Hogans have been saying about the Grazianos. Doesn’t it feel to anyone else like they’re trying to smear their names as much as they can before the inevitable lawsuit? Attacking the victim and their credibility before a case goes to court is a tried and true tactic in this country.
I agree with everyone on here…the Hogans are self-centered ignorant assholes…if any of them do end up having a reality tv show again, I think there should be a boycott of it and angry letters sent to whatever network picked it up…heres to hoping nick’s cell mates kick his crybaby butt or that somebody in that jail does if possible… 😆
why does the viewing public put these white trash wanna be worthless no talent no redeemable quality people on pedestals and even CARE what they are doing ? yep, the fems look like carny act wannabe ho’s. and to read ANYTHING that winey little murderer has to say and hear him whimper about how he HATES to be locked up…. boo hoo! you get what you deserve as does this ENTIRE DYSFUNCTIONAL family. once again, too bad some people are breeders..
OK, I spent most of my life living in a trailer park, and the Hogans are seriously worse than any white trash I ever encountered in that time! Sure, some of my neighbors may have been on crystal meth, but at least their drug habits meant that they couldn’t afford to buy cheap liquor and hot rods for their dumbass kids!
All that and they all need makeovers.
well, i agree the H’s are spoiled retards and HH is a moron who should just not ever utter another word, but the G’s have no right to go threatening anyone. they are not the police… they should let the police handle it. people are so small minded these days, they get all bent out of shape by what someone else says….who cares….*uck what anyone has to say.
i hate this story. they make me sick! i am so – just over them. on a lighter note when i write “assholeish” i do it like this: asshole-ish (have fun with that)
I smell a lawsuit on it’s way. I feel bad for the Grazianos. Not only is their son legally dead, their family keeps getting torn upby the media. I hope ALL of the Hogans die horrible, painful deaths to atone for this.
Bad Karma on them 👿 !
I miss the Osbournes.
My husband spells it assholeish with an ‘e’. Sorry to burst your bubble Jaybird but he’s been using that one for years. He’ll be tickled to know that there is someone else out there with the same flair for swear words that he has.:D
Oh and the Hogans can go fuck themselves!
And this is why Ric Flair is the greatest professional wrestler of all time.
Nick Bollea is right where he needs to be to pay for his crime. It’s sad that the sentence isn’t longer. The entire family are ridiculous leeches.
Having said that, John Graziano is an adult who should not have gotten into a car with a drunk driver. He CHOSE to ride with a drunk and he CHOSE not to wear his seatbelt. To say that he’s an innocent victim is truly a travesty and will not teach youngsters about responsibility. I hope and pray that he recovers.
Actually, you have quite a few statements in your story that are incorrect. Terry Bollea DID NOT willingly provide his son with alcohol – among other things. Also, it hasn’t been proven that they were actually street racing. You can’t make judgment on these people until you get all of the facts straight. You claim to know nothing about the type of person John Graziano is, but yet happen to know everything about the Bolleas?
The fact is, this type of accident happens in every high school every few years. Kids consume alcohol then crash their vehicle, severely injuring themselves and others in the process. Unfortunately, this kind of thing is very common. The fact is, Nick Bollea and John Graziano are both KNOWN for this type of behavior. They both entered the situation willingly.
I don’t believe in “God”, but that aside, BOTH deserve what they have received. Maybe Nick Bollea’s sentence should be harder, but IN NO WAY IS JOHN GRAZIANO A VICTIM. He willingly subjected himself to the situation, knowing this result as a possibility.
Oh, and remember, not wearing your safety belt IS A VIOLATION OF THE LAW. Neither are victims, both willingly broke the law.
I don’t watch TV much so I never saw the show on the Hogans. I also don’t know how much of an a hole Nick is. I happened to see the headline on CNN and decided to go the web to look up more info. I have to say your blog seems very one sided and unfair. Correct me if I am wrong, but John went in the car willingly. Did he know Nick had been Drinking? Did he know that Nick planned to race? Don’t all states have mandatory seat belt Laws? The way I see it is John could have easily being the Driver and Nick the passenger.
I agree with all the comments prior to this one: Terry ( Hulk ) to say, “it was God’s will”….all this tells me is how ignorant Hulk Hogan is, if it was Nick in John Graziano’s position would he say, it was God’s will?? He should take a look at himself and his disfunctional family. Karma is a funny thing Hulk….and we will all be around to watch it….I know you are rotting inside as I write this as you should for what has happened to an innocent young man…Your comments are very unintelligent…as was your career…..Dumb Wrestler….
everyone who says they are all assholes needs to shutup you dont know them you dont know the story all you know is what you hear and thats not always the truth.i do agree that hulk said some wrong things but that is stillno reason to kill nick.i listened to the voicemail threats on youtube and the person said”your kid is going to bleed,your little fag— son is going to bleed slow.im going to bleed him and torture him slow then piss on his grave”that is a death threat and they have no right to kill nick besides if they do hulk will kill them
WE ARE STANDING BY GRAZIANOS FAMILY…HOGANS NEVER DID A THING FOR OUR COUNTRY………..FAKE WRESTLER…FAKE BOOBS….FAKE SINGER…AND A BRAT….I HOPE EVERY VET GETS INVOLVED…..AND THAT FAKE DIVORCE TAKES THE CAKE…WHO ARE THEY KIDDING?..ONLY THE FOOLS WHO SIDE WITH HOGAN?..THE HOGAN FAMILY REALLY SMELLS..
I BELIEVE ALTHOUGH WHATS DONE IS DONE,EXCEPT AS OF THIS MATTER NICK HAS NO REACTION TOWARD JOHN,THAT IS JUST SICKENING TO MY STOMACHE.
He deserves manslaughter especially if something shall happen to john as far as passing away. I do believe its ATTEMPTED MURDER IF NOT MURDER. Nick doesnt deserve freedom at his young age,John is also young but i guess nick didnt care to acknowledge anything about john,” after all john deserved it” JOHN WAS NAIEVE,BUT NICK IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYONE IS HIS FREAK SHOW CAR,NICK GO TO HELL ALONG WITH UR CARELESS DAD TOO BAD IT WASNT HULK IN THAT PASSANGER SEAT THEN UD SEE SOME TEARS FRM THE BRATT,,,BASTARDS!
I think the judge should have made Nick be the one who takes “lifelong care” of the guy he injured in the crash. Let Nick be the one who is by John’s bedside taking care of him like a job – make that his restitution.
i understand it was a horrible, irresponsible accident…but i DO NOT understand why so many people act as if John was innocent: he obviously chose to participate in the driving. He could have been the one behind the wheel himself if he happened to have been. but he happened to be the co-pilot at the time. We have no evidence that he asked to get out! Stop acting like John is a victim of Nick. John and Nick BOTH chose to do what they were doing and it just so happened that Nick did not get injured physically.
