When Jimmy handed me the keys to Hot Clicks, he told me I could do whatever I wanted for July 4th. With that in mind, here are three random moments that made me particularly proud to be an American. The first is from Wrestlemania VII in 1991 when American hero Hulk Hogan took the WWF championship belt back from Iraqi sympathizer Sgt. Slaughter.

Last, and most important, is Rocky Balboa's speech from the end of Rocky IV. "If I can change. And you can change. Everyone can change!"
