X Games

[Captain Rooster]

I am amazed by the tricks these people can pull on bikes, skateboards and motocross bikes.

BACK FLIPS on a dirt bike!?

That is crazy!

I never thought I'd like the X Games, but I have been blown away by the crazy talent that these guys possess.

Sorry Rooster, not too into the X games.

VERY tellented people. Either that, or suicidal. Either way, impressive. But I just can't get into it.

I went to Philly on Monday and saw the In-line Vert and Moto X Big Air competitions. It's even more impressive in person.

I wish I had gone for a few more days. I really would have liked to have seen the In-line Park, Bicycle Flatland and Bicycle Park competitions live.

I thought I was going to hate the XGames when I gave it 30 seconds of my time as I strolled past a TV (What's a TV? I never turn off the radio) last night.

I was bored for about 10 seconds and then suddenly this dude pulled two back flips, in a row, on a dirtbike.

I always loved the movie Rad . The kid in that movie pulls off a back flip on a BMX bike. The move also has a cheesey scene where he does tricks at the dance while the DJ plays the song "Send Me an Angel." Well, I always thought that a back flip on a bike was the impossible trick. I was wrong. These guys pull flips every third trick. Amazing. I am going to go rent Rad and have an 80s flashback.

EDIT I am now officially obsessed with renting Rad and listening to the song.
"Send Me an Angel"
Here's a refresher on the song if you don't know it...
"Do you believe in Heaven above?
Do you believe in Love?
Don't tell a lie
Don't be false or untrue
It all comes back to you
OPEN FIRE in my burn heart...."

THE PINNACLE OF CHEESE HAS BEEN FOUND!

It's officially 80s week at Rooster's house


Back to what I was saying...I THOGHT I WOULD HATE IT, but now I am addicted.

I don't even like skateboarding and all that stuff, but watching those guys is fun. They do some of the craziest things i've ever seen
