3304	Article	massreality	It's great that Raven has gotten some mentions in the comments. He was always one of my favorites. His feud against DDP is my all-time favorite feud. I really feel like Raven doesn't get near the respect he deserves for the character in WCW.		Feb 02, 2016
3305	Article	Mr Magic	Raven was one big emo, but he did create some good segments.	In Defense of World Championship Wrestling	Feb 02, 2016
3312	Article	OldSchool80s	WCW was on TBS back in the 80s and had a lot of good stuff going on well before the time you are describing too. When I think of WCW, I think first about the 4 Horsemen, Dusty Rhodes, Rock n Roll Express, Midnight Express, Magnum TA, Nikita Koloff, Road Warriors and that era. Then Sting helped make the transition to that 90s era which had a nice run as well. There was a stretch when I significantly preferred WCW to WWE. Everything seemed to be going well until they got rid of Bischoff and brought in Vince Russo.	In Defense of World Championship Wrestling	Feb 03, 2016
3295	Article	Vaporman87	This was a very emotional read, and really well done. I can think back to my time in school, and watching some of my fellow classmates suffer like you. I myself was the target of the occasional bully, though not nearly to this extent. I somehow managed to find a place in school that kept me out of the crosshairs for the most part, and even allowed me to have some civil relationships with those who might otherwise have bullied me. I can't imagine the bullying I did receive being multiplied to such a degree that I feared going to school every day, and felt like there was no help for me. Now that I am a father of school age children myself, I see the act of bullying from a totally different perspective. I would be furious to find out such things were happening to my child, and the school would come to fear my phone calls if such things ever happened routinely. I am not one of those people who believe our children today are becoming spoiled and weak because we are more serious about bullying in our schools these days. Bullying is something that no child should have to endure. I do believe that kids today are indeed more apt to BE spoiled and weak, but not because of our approach to bullying in schools today. Thank you for sharing this difficult set of memories with us Rick. I think I speak for everyone when I say that I am glad you overcame all that adversity.	Being Bullied	Feb 01, 2016
3303	Article	Hoju Koolander	It's great to hear you had such supportive parents, my Mom had to talk me through some tearful moments as well, when I couldn't understand why I was such a target for bullies. Obviously I know where you're coming from, but it never got this intense. Physical injuries? Moving out of state? I'm glad to hear that high school was fun and you were able to make it through. Seriously, you had some good folks.	Being Bullied	Feb 02, 2016
3306	Article	echidna64	A lot of this struck home- the constant ridicule and the feeling of being isolated from the rest of the group. One time in 5th grade I had 3rd degree sunburn and so what started as a few kids slapping me on the neck turned into the whole class turning against me and hitting me with their binders. The bullying only stopped when I fought back. I could take the criticism but when someone else was being bullied it was a different story. I got into a fight on the bus and I actually sent the little jerk to the hospital. His face swelled up like a grape and he was actually so embarrassed after so much trash talking that he changed schools. After that everyone I was like a legend and not only did people not mess with me, they left my entire family and my younger brothers alone lol	Being Bullied	Feb 02, 2016
3307	Article	Rick Ace Rhodes	Thanks for the comments guys. This was a hard one to write, I actually got a little emotional when I was creating that sheet of paper photo. I'm glad to hear your own stories about bullying and overcoming it.	Being Bullied	Feb 02, 2016
3308	Article	massreality	Wow Rick. That was one heck of a journey. Thanks for sharing, I know that wasn't easy to write.	Being Bullied	Feb 03, 2016
3313	Article	OldSchool80s	Thanks for sharing and glad things turned out better in the end. It is sad to think how much physical and psychological damage people can cause so recklessly.	Being Bullied	Feb 03, 2016
3431	Article	mickyarber	This is such a great article my friend. Stuff like this is always tough to write, but I think it's necessary sometimes to get a taste of the bad memories to go along with all the good ones we all share here. I experience a fair share of bullying in school, and as a parent of school children, those memories stay near the front of my mind. I've told my daughters numerous times to not let themselves be bullied. I don't think any kid should go through what you described here. I've told them to go to their teacher when and if this happens. If they don't fix the problem, and it persists, I've taught them how to take matters into their own hands. Really good article though, one of my favorites I've read here.	Being Bullied	Mar 11, 2016
