i hope they get some real footage of him taking out some foolish cajuns or something, with reverse elbow joint snapping and stabbing people in the neck with their own compound fractured shin bones and the stuff like that, years ago there was a rumor he was some sort of CIA or something, you have the collection od steven seagal night, do you happen to know if there is any merit to the old rumor or is it just kids talking shit?

there WAS a rumor that he was involved/associated with organized crime a few years ago. it all stems from his THEN partner, julius nasso (they had a small company called seagal/nasso productions, which produced a few of his films in the late 90s and early 2000s). nasso WAS involved, however, in some illegal activities that were tied to the mob, rackateering being just one of them, and last i read a few months ago, he was still in jail awaiting trial on other charges....
so the word got out about it, and with both being associated with each other in the film world, it started swirling about that seagal was a part of it too. people saying all kinds of things, from seagal supposedly scaring people, following them, etc etc...even the cops (and the CIA you mentioned as well) were getting on his case wanting to know things about it all....
the other minor rumor was that thats why all his videos started going DTV, because the BIG producer companies and whatnot did not want to be associated with someone who may or may not be tied into all this...........of course, i know its because theres not a wide market for him anymore, but thats what was said.

i heard this will be on tv soon. is it coming to a&e still? there was an issue/lawsuit over the idea for the show, in any case this might actually be entertaining
