The IOC is surely afraid of drugs scandals and skateboarders getting drunk and trashing the Olympics. They have a right to be concerned.

But it would be cool to see Antwuan Dixon or Lizard King representing the USA alongside the usual cliched jocks. Won't happen though.

Women's boxing! That's ridiculous.

Ridiculously great. Watching chicks wailing on each other is awesome.

I think we probably have at least 9 years of debate to go before any skaters are putting on the green and gold for Australia at the Olympics. Which city is hosting the 2018 games ? lol !

John, your getting forgetful, Skaters have been putting on the green for ages. You might even get a Gold for that!

Dammn, regarding your ironing comment...that's SEXIST!

I'm going to report you to the 'Womyn's' group at my university. Expect to get beaten up by a gang of angry feminist lesbians who resemble Mike Vallely.

very good read.
fuck the Olympics, Street League is bad enough.
Ccuntm8noworries6 Sept 2012
Silly idea but doesn't matter enough to really bother me, like street league and the berrics, just don't pay attention to it. it won't stop legit skaters doing their thang.
Article reminded me of a 15 year old emo kid bumming out that other people are listening to his music. "don't they know we're happy to be considered degenerates?" -gay.

Oh yeah I didn't read all of it either hehe
