Jim Ross updated the blog section of JRsbarbq.com. The following items are among the highlights.

-Ross on his move to Smackdown: "Changes in one’s life take some adjusting to especially at my stage of the game. This week I received an unexpected change in my professional address. Within hours of writing an emotional blog, I am positively moving on. I am going to do all I can to make Smackdown the best program the WWE produces...

"The abruptness of the 'trade' shocked me. I most likely responded in a non professional way in the eyes of some fans. That’s their prerogative and each has the right to their opinion, as do I. Not to be cliche, but wrestling has been great to my family and me. I owe it to the business to “man up” and to kick ass on Smackdown. That’s my plan. My emotions are what they are and I will not apologize for my candor or honesty. My feathers were ruffled…poor me."

Powell's POV: Let the speculation begin that Vince McMahon took offense to some of the things Ross wrote in his previous blog. That's certainly possible, but it's just as possible that Ross had a change of heart. For the record, Ross actually wrote this prior to the Smackdown taping on Tuesday and I missed it somehow.
