CB, I was a jobber (flunky who always loses), and not even a top jobber. I never got any tv gigs. I just filled in at local arena shows when they wanted to get a star over. What you see on tv is the whole team. When they go out to arenas, they split that group into several sub-groups and bring in "opponents." I was at Wharton and could always use some extra money. A wrestler spotted me doing some major league leg presses in the gym. He soon discovered that I was not career material (they want you to be coordinated, not just strong <G>, or good looking, or really large, or have a personality), but he said I could make some good money if I took some training. It lasted for about a year and then I got my calling from the mutual fund cos. <G> MB
