It's true and I'm going to Rehab for it . Agree with him or not . It doesnt matter he did'nt Lie for day's'/weeks . These two owned up to it.  
Very important in my book.

: If you haven't seen it yet then don't read my  
: comments. It was great. Sheldon Saltman made  
: a great comment about Evel at the end saying  
: we should forget about the bad things he did  
: and look at the good he did.  Looking back  
: at the baseball bat event I think now Evel  
: did it for publicity and perhaps  
: frustration. I can't think of any other  
: reason . Kelly Knievel said  he was mad at  
: Evel for doing it. Linda said the book  
: Saltman wrote was true. But here is the  
: worst part about it. The book wasn't a big  
: deal. It really wasn't .In fact some said  
: the book might have not received any  
: attention if not for the beating . And if  
: you go back and look at other stories you  
: see much more damaging  news reports then  
: the book had in it.  I just think it was an  
: excuse to go after him. I was mad at Evel  
: for doing it. Why? Because Evel could have  
: made a nice living promoting Safety for the  
: rest of his life. I knew he was in trouble  
: when my Parents told me to stop idolizing  
: him. I didn't stop but I was also concerned  
: about his empire. Some good footage and it  
: brings back many memories. I have to put  
: 1975 as his best year and 1977 as his worst.  
: I remember The Bionic Woman episode was  
: shown after he was arrested. I have to give  
: the filmmakers credit for showing both sides  
: to him.
