Skateboard Journalism 101...
Okay, this is harsh. But I kinda can't ignore it. I mean, I guess I gotta appreciate that people link into my site and actually read it and whatnot. So yeah, thanks for coming by and all. But seriously, "Ryan Sheckler and the State of the Game"??? What is this? Like a dissertation or something? The Super Bowl post-game wrap up on Sports Center?
Sounds like some epic evaluation of Sheckler and skateboarding (ie: "The Game") is about to go down if you ask me, right? Ya man, I was ready to get my ass fuggin' enlightened! But no...
If you ever want to learn how to state the painfully obvious, say absolutely nothing, talk in circles, contradict yourself, fail at baggin' on the easiest and most played out target in the skateboard industry (Ryan Sheckler) and completely neglect supporting your "thesis statement" all while trying to peddle skateboards online even though you are a snowboard site, in 217 words or less, then this is your lucky day.
Sorry dudes, I'm sure you are all great people. Hell, I'd be glad to give you a high five and play you in S.K.A.T.E. and have a beer sometime if we ever meet. But if you are gonna come up with a title and concept like that, you gotta back it. And there's a nickle's worth of free advice from yours truly.
P.S. A more relevant photo for the blog would be nice. Kudos on the 'Cost of War in Iraq" counter though...

Yeah, I admit my title was epic...and the support sucked...
The whole page is a painstaking work.
I had good intentions in the title....
I am the "Tech" guy, and yet I am also the "blogger" too? It's a dichotomy that I've been trying to understand.
Sorry for the painful site.
In the future I'll stick to the companies "blogging" policy...which means No skateboarding...just snowboard sales.

Best damm comments ever by Rob to that wack site.you summed him up right quick.
How bout the tech sticks to talking about HTML and not about a scene he knows nothing about which from the site looks to be skate and snow.

Ryan Sheckler can skate no doubt, but he the next Bam; a sellout. Everyone is saying the same thing man, its true though, but the thing is everyone who is hating him and the others for jumping on the sheckwagon and shit are jumping on the antisheckwagon. They are following a massive amount of hateraide blindly like the horny girls, posuers, and people who like sheckler are following his fame blindly. Shit is overrated though it like highschool drama and im gonna do what i do now when my highschool drama kicks up dirt, sit back crack open a beer and laugh at the fucks who care about something that means nothing. Why am I posting this again though?
