    That’s Lattimore’s translation, a good one although I think I prefer Fitzgerald. But a win all the way around

    Two questions.

    Has he read The Iliad?

    Can he read The Iliad?

      Considering it’s in the public domain and a paperback, I’m guessing it’s not an expensive book and I’m sure there are plenty of wrestling autograph collectors so, despite Hulk Hogan being a giant piece of shit, it probably gained a massive amount of value.

        Hulk Hogan autographed photos and t shirts are $15 -$50 on ebay. Wrestling collectors would probably rather have something wrestling related rather than a book. So not much value.

    Also: is this one or two layers of ignorant, considering the poster misspelled the name of the book he took a photo of?

    I’m sure he’ll claim to have given Homer the idea to write it and that the character Achilles is based on him

      Last I heard, Hulk Hogan is no longer a heel. BUT he is kind of a racist, homophobic Trump-supporting heel in real life. Maybe that is his Achilles’ Heel? Wow, there really are layers to this.

        He may not be a heel, but he’s definitely a shitheel.
