Nick Hogan Breaks Silence
By John
Community Editor
Since an August street racing crash which left his friend John Graziano in a vegetative state, Nick Hogan has kept silent. But today, he updated his MySpace blog with this text:
"omggggg its been forever since iblogged…hell i dont even know what blog means but i guess its whereyou write stuff for people to read
anywaysmy last one was before i even drove for mopar, if you check my picsyoull see that i did end up driving for them for my amateur season andmost of my pro rookie season. i recently left the mopar teamtho…things didnt work out to well
but!….i picked up a new title sponsor…POLAROID! and started my own team with twin 350z’s pretty cool i know
anyways id like everyone to wish my luck for my 08 season and keep john graziano in your prayers"
After reading that drivel, I’m almost speechless. No "I’m sorry." No "I made a bad decision." No "I’ll learn from this, and I’ll regret it for the rest of my life." No indication whatsoever that he’s anything more than a spoiled, misanthropic rich kid with the IQ of a potted plant. He actually has a ride page for his old Supra, but it hasn’t been updated since 2004. I almost feel like banning him for being so awful.

i think you can tell a thread has gone to hell when a stupid idiot like minivan pimp opens his mouth more than once. nick hogan is stupid. he shouldn’t be allowed to be a race car driver when he wrecks everything he touches…

See now all he is a spoiled kid…but his friend being in a vegitative state isnt all his fault. yea he street raced but most of us do and most of us dont think that “o, well maybe if i crash ill put my buddy in danger.” no his friend knew just thhe same amount of risk as he did

I think its sucks that it happened and yes the kid was probably egging him on but just like he didn’t tell him with a gun in his face to get in, the other kids right foot wans’t on the gas pedal either and I have dumbass friends that tell me to do shit and I’m in control of the car and I know it.

Ok i know that Nick messed up bad but i think you people are forgetting one huge fact that kid got in the car with him its not like nick put a gun in his face and told him to do it. I have a fast car and i drive it fast and if any of you have a fast car then you know how it goes when your with your buddies and goofing off and next thing you know your driving fast and being stupid. I would bet anything the kid that got hurt was egging him on i can say this with 100% certainty because i have had it happen to me from my friends and i have done it myself and im sure a good percentage of the people on here have done it but no one is going to admit it because of their holier than thou attitude.

Okay… yeah this is sad since his friend is a vegetable, but what more can you do??? Honestly. SAD PART IS THAT THIS SORT OF THING HAPPENS EVERYDAY YET PEOPLE ALL OF THE SUDDEN BECOME CONCERNED ONCE A CELEBRITY IS INVOLVED!!!! WHAT ABOUT THE DUMB KIDS THAT F*** UP OTHER PEOPLES LIVES BY STREET RACING EVERY NIGHT AND GETTING IN CAR COLLISIONS? Rich kids like him race their high end cars all the time and when they kill people, nobody more than 50 miles away heres about it, and nobody cares. Fact of the matter is that this situation is blown completely out of proportion. HE WON’T DO TIME. His father is Hulk Hogan, I mean c’mon. Yeah it’s unfair, but thats the crappy world we live in and if you can’t deal with that, then you need a reality check. POINT YOUR FINGERS ALL YOU WANT, BUT REALIZE THAT IN THE END IT WILL DO NO GOOD AND ALL YOU WILL HAVE DONE IS LOOK LIKE A JUDGMENTAL JACKA** WITH NO COMPASSION FOR ANOTHER PERSONS MISTAKE. AND WHILE I’M NOT SURE OF WHETHER OR NOT HE FEELS BAD ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED, THAT DOESN’T GIVE YOU THE RIGHT TO CALL HIM OUT. Yeah I hope that he goes to jail, and that he has to live with consequences. Sooner or later, it will catch up to him and he will realize what he did was really really wrong and hopefully he has to carry the burden of all that guilt for the rest of his life. But he’s a young, dumb kid. No amount of whining or complaining will change that fact.

He totalled his viper twice last season while in drifting competitions, he finished off his supra, he has practilly finished off someone’s life (That person is also paying the price for his actions as we can all see now). Let’s face it Polaroid dropped the ball in sponsering him. Not a good public relations move. He is not worthy to be on any drifting circuit, or have a sponser and team, or a driver’s license. It’s rich kids like that who are born and raised spoiled who ruin it for the real people who are into cars. Does’nt matter if your into drifting or american muscle or any type of car lifestyle.

Our family is boycotting Polaroid until they stop sponsoring Nick Bollea. It’s not enough to just b*tch about that punk on forums and comment boards. All it does is bring him what he wants — attention.
Write Polaroid and let them know how you feel:

hey what do you want the guy to say “i’m sorry” as an inserted every second word? nobody is that stupid aside from the nit wit who started this topic… what kind of idiot picks a argument on such grounds?
I understand he screwed up and not only did something stupid and got burnt for it, but also took someone else in with him in a worse off way, but have some common descency(sp?) you expect more out of some “celebrities” son, than you do of yourself… just sad… all the way around

One thing everyone needs to think about is if he wasnt Nick Hogan, would he even be able to blog and post stupid-ass comments about his upcoming racing season? NO!!! If he was an everyday somebody like the majority of us are, he’d be dealing with his legal issues and possibly jail time. I dont hate him cause he’s rich, I hate him because of his non-chalant and spoiled attitude. Even people with fame and money have been known to posses a soul and concious….he just chooses not to. Thats my opinion.

I have to agree that he is an asshole. He wrecked the supra which had alot of modifications done to it which were very expensive. He once spend $4,000 on parts for the green supra, which i think is nuts. The yellow supra was a good looking car until know. I’m 17 and if i had a supra it would be for show basically. I drive a cavalier, i don’t have a nice customized car and show it off like he does. I work for money and build up my ride for show & go. It is how it should be for all teenagers. Instead of getting fancy cars like mercedes-benz,lamborgini,lincoln, and more. It’s because of some teenagers parents that give them anything they want because their rich. In a recent article it says terry was a part of the stret race with the silver viper, which it was drivin by someone else at the time though. I think Nick’s Screwed for life. He also could be going to jail if Grazino doesn’t come out of his comma.

That old profile of Supraman111 is of his car. The yellow supra that he was driving and wrecked (totaled) is his dads supra. Apparently he takes good car of his cars just not anyone else’s. Does anyone know where I can get that yellow supra, the body might be shot but that motor and trans is still good.

I guess he didn’t post his blog solely to express his remorse…that’s probably why it doesn’t express any! He blogged to say he’s found a new sponsor and what he plans on doing! He really SHOULD be working at a fast food restaurant “SCRAPING” together money for his first ride as someone mentioned though! As a parent, I wouldn’t give him a dime for his “racing” hobby ever again after what he did. It WAS a sort of accident though, people need to remember he didn’t intend to kill someone…and I can’t wish prison upon anyone, having been there. Although I can recommend REVOKING HIS LICENSE for what happened!
Anyway, I don’t like the kid, but his blog is not really an honest platform for attacking him. Now, if it was titled “Racing for Graziano” THEN maybe I could see people attacking him…

Maybe my last post sounded pissed off… Personally, I have no stake in it so don’t give more than the time it takes to write my feelings about it. It was just a blog, and yeah, Nick is just a kid. The point I was getting at though, was the total lack of concern or respect he displayed. If you nearly killed someone, would you be going on about how great life is for you?? I know I wouldn’t. Even when I was 17.

Well tell us how you really feel! From what I can see, all this is, is a bunch of people who wishes they were Nick, and jealous of what he has. The guy did mention his friend and asked us to keep him in our prayers, and you do have to remember how young Nick is. He is just a kid! Also this was just a damn blog, not a public statement and the person that got the info from the blog, is either a subscriber to it, or just a Nick Hogan stalker. Instead of talking smack about a teenager why don’t you worry about more important things such as anger management. That is all.

A response to minivan pimp… The reason most of us are disgusted with Hulk Jr. is because HE PUT HIS FRIEND IN A COMA!!!!!
His irresposible and wreckless behavior has more or less cost someone their life. Dick, er… I mean Nick leaves it until last, almost like an after-thought, to remind everyone to keep John Graziano in their prayers like he himself had nothing to do with what happened. Maybe we’d all be a little more understanding if Dick’s… er… I mean Nick’s blog were a LITTLE more respectful to the guy he nearly killed. Openning it like some valley girl, running down how frickin’ cool it is to get sponsered by Polaroid, and getting a couple new Nissans are all better topics then how shitty he feels about the guy in the hospital bed. Personally I hope the asshole wrecks. Badly.

Absolutely ridiculous! Maybe someone needs to lock him in a bed next to his buddy in the vegetable state and give him just a little taste of what he and his family are going through!!! I used to race and try to top-out my car on the highway all the time with my two brothers in the car. I thought it was cool and I was invincible. It wasn’t until I totalled the car in late 2004 and ended up with a pole inside the car on the passenger side. One of my brother’s almost came with me that day, and he have come, he would have been seriously hurt, if not killed. Many drivers, young ones especially, never consider the fact that everytime they speed, they’re not only putting their life in danger, but also the person next to them. This is sad to hear since he is in a position to be a positive role-model just like his dad, but instead has chosen his own path. Don’t ban him, just make sure he see’s this!

What was so shocking about asking folks to keep john graziano in our prayers, and updating people on what he has been up to? I must have missed something because you people are acting like the tools you claim him to be. So once again, what was so shocking about this? I for one hope he does well with the Nissan’s and shows some japs how Americans can drift!

Yeah, thanks Polaroid. Hulk can be cool, but his son is a douche. 17 year old kids should be messing around with beater cars scraping money together for intakes and springs, not getting Viper and Supras.
Peter
Oct 24, 2007 at 5:42 am
I am completely shocked by this. How can he make a comment that he even says people will read and talk about anything but Graziano. I don’t even know what to say this is so shocking. He should be in jail right now and how is he still racing. I really can’t understand what is going on. Someone killed one of my best friends our senior year of highschool in this same way and if the driver did anything this soon after but show remorse i probably would have hunted him down and fought him.

Yet again… celeb punks getting away with murder… Vince Neil killed someone driving drunk and speeding must be the case that will set precedence for this. The guy should be banned from racing as well as from Cardomain. Although its not likely, I hope they get enough dough out of the kid that the whole Hogan clan feels it.

eew, Tampon, FL? I thought Intercourse, PA was over the top.
John: this is a righteous post to bring to light such a wrong. Whether the passenger was in his car willingly up till the crash, it dosen’t matter (not that that was brought up)… it’s just ignorant, completely insensitive to the passenger’s family and just plain wrong in every way for him to not take responsibility.
I see why he didn’t say anything though. Doing so would leave him wide open for a wrongful death suit, it would amount to a confession and I’m sure his lawyer told him that, as any defense lawyer would.
That dosen’t make it right, though.

His father spends (spent?) most of his life to gain a name for himself. I mean who hasn’t heard of the phrase “Whatcha ya gonna do brother, when the 24″ pythons and Hulkamania run wild on you!?” (or something along those lines, ref. Urban Dictionary) His own son has to tarnish his last name. To me, that is simply disrespectful. You got it spot on, John.

I can’t resist pointing out that the ride page above lists it’s location as Tampon, Florida. Judging by the owner, I think that’s just about right.
