No, you just have to be in parts of the country where this is huge. A lot of people do this in the snow states, they buy shyt too.

EPSN will always push the X games. It is one of the few products ESPN has created on it's own.

Man, I've been watching this pretty much since its inception. Better this than watching boring, meaningless mid-season baseball games.

With that said, what Burnquist did out there was probably some of the dumbest shyt I've EVER seen at either Summer or Winter X. I was scared that this dude was going to cripple himself every time he took off from the ramp.

Do you see all the sponsors covering everyone competing?

This is a major industry, and ESPN has it's biggest event locked down.

Not a coincidence that NBC has twice tried to move in on their turf (first the Gravity Games, now the Dew Tour). It's big business.

I mess with X Games, when I see some of the things these guys do, I wonder how many bones do you have to break before you become half way decent :ohhh:

I watched it in the beginning, but it basically turned into a real life version of Tony Hawk. All that matters is how high they can j get and how many times someone can spin whether on a board or flip on a bike. They literally have a competition that all they do is jump up a ramp and over a bar. What kinda shyt is that?
