I stayed with him because he admitted it . I did it . No Pussy Footin around. Same as Rush Limbaugh When his Perscription Pain Killer Drug Abuse broke . He came on and said . 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.
