Those days are gone... it's sad. Sort of like when skateboarders were hated and ESPN didn't make a dime off of them. Now everyone cashes in and skateboarding is as popular as football. What a joke. It's like going to the mall to buy your "punk" clothes, pre-torn and clean.

And these new mall ratts consider themselves the experts on what punk is all about.

sellouts. I have no idea what my point is, but this is a damn good beer.

Oh I know what it was. When sports become driven by advertising they loose themselves to what the advertisers want. Snowboarders in ski suits for god's sake with advertisements pinned all over their body like a freaking 10 speed racer. Screw that, lets keep it real.
