That'd be both professional and funny! Will anyone else agree with me that Rogan and Goldberg need a sabbatical...Permanently? I cringe whenever I see Goldberg do his trademark "IN THE OCTAGON!" routine. Or when Rogan does his "THAT'S CRAZY!!" routine. Fresh blood would do the UFC some good. It was also funny to read the post by Evan. How young are you? Don't you know Jim Ross from the '80s? I remember when he was calling matches for Mid South Wrestling when Jim Duggan was actually a credible threat! Cheers, Jay K. I agree with #11, at least have Jim Ross call one match.

For the longest time he was head of talent relations for WWE and WCW back in the early 90's. While he isn't Vince McMahon, his opinion carries some value with Vince. Aside from wrestling he did play by play on the Atlanta Falcons radio network. Jim Ross has been more than just a play by play guy for the WWE.

Let's get real now...the WWE has had drug abuse, kidnapping, attempted murder, and even a Triple H and Kane skit centering on necrophilia, yet he thinks Griffen's four letter word wasn't classy. Hilarious. Am I the only one who thought Jim Ross’ comments about Forrest’s swearing were pretty ironic?

And it doesn't have to be a big card, maybe if/when he retires from wrestling he can do occasional minor shows; it'll be a blessing after the hell that is the WWE schedule, and I think he'd enjoy selling new stars.
