No props to any sport were you have to build up speed on something with wheels to perform a trick.

Are they doing that Hot Wheels thing today?

This happened last night.

And this...

 

[Cynical Thoughts]

he asked is it really that popular? and I gave a reason why I don't watch it/think its that popular.

Was that post really that hard to figure out?

Not going to compare a 12yr old 130 lb kids riding skate boards to the nba, nfl, MLB, hockey, soccer, rugby, swimming, tennis, gymnastics etc. I'm not hating if you enjoy tho, do you.

didn't know putting the snoop was meant that i didn't understand your post

what i'm saying is, you can't base popularity on how it's achieved, there's various and almost a infinite amount of ways to become popular and desired to be viewed

come on

You guys should stop arguing and tune into ABC right now. They're about to do the real life Hot Wheels Loop.

Nothing cool happened. Both drivers survived.

Terrible. How the fukk is this a sport ?

 

[Mr. Jack Napier]

The X Games is pretty cool. Whenever I get a chance to watch it, I'm in the crib

 

[MegaTronBomb!]

i think people are surprised that an entire culture of shyt they dont really know shyt about or fukk with is that big

for a lot of people, it's the first and only time they've ever seen something on that level involving people surfing, riding bikes and skateboards etc.

I anwsered cosby first. I anwsered the posts in the order i quoted them. I should have split them, my bad.

My opinion still stands. But i get totally what your saying. But based on sports i dont hold it in high regard being on a sports network. although it can be entertain'n at times.

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?

you're talking about step up.

to take a 200 lb bike, and see how high in the air you can go with it... is something that baffles you?


i mean, it's literally nothing different than the pole vault or high jump...
