Advantages: Mick's Second novel, More jokes about al Snow
Disadvantages: none really
i know, i know it's a rubbish heading but i thought it was very fitting. anyway....... Foley is good? Well yes he is. The novel starts where his first leaves off. His first novel was called "have a nice day" in which he charts his early life through to his career in the World wrestling federation, stopping off at W.C.W, E.C.W. japan and many other inde promontions. Foley is Good continues from when he first "Won" the world wrestling federation title. He goes in depth about a rather brutal and controversial match called an "I quit" match. Which if your new to wrestling is the only way to win is to get your opponent to say i quit. Now in this match he goes on about how he took more chair shots than was planned. (Now at this point i'd like to point out that i saw this live and i counted 12 shots to the head.) and also how after seeing his familys reaction that he didn't think he was a good parent after all. Mick then goes on to mention the rezt of his career before retiring, then being asked to do one more match, then retire again. He then became the commissioner. (Which he was very good at, and made many a RAW and SMACKDOWN worth watching. Agian it's my opinion) Apart from the W.W.F. Mick wrote about his family life, Backyard wrestling and something he obviously has a strong opionion on. The P.T.C. Now this P.T.C. is led by one man, whose father wasn't all there. (It's ture.) and who has taken it upon himself to try and rid the world of the "Evil" that is the World Wrestling Federation. They blame the W.W.F. for currupting kids and turning them into killers. (Their words not mine.) and i think Mick has a valid point. Overall it's a good read and if you liked the first novel you'll like this. At times he does seem to come over as a bit arrogant to me in it but i think the winning point is his jokes aimed at a fellow wrestler called Al Snow.
