X GAMES 2009

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (Jumkie @ Aug 3 2009, 10:31 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>The judges were a bit inconsistent I think. They also had a BMX competition at the same venue (Staples Center had the "big air" events, while the Home Depot Center had most everything else). Anyway, this kid does a 'double FRONT flip on the BMX bike and the dude didn't get scored enough to make the podium. Everybody was booing and stayed booing for a while. It was the first attempt and landing of this trick ever. So how it didn't get the first place was mind-boggling.
That was Anthony Neapolitan and he is amazing. Something happened to the x-games a few years ago, and it became a popularity contest. Anthony is a good man and he got screwed. Not to mention they took away his other event dirt jumping. The dew tour is the new x-games. The x-games can just go away.
 
I'm just glad Kenny Brack won the 'rally' event. An actual racer.

Travis Pisstrana is such a sore loser. The guy crashed his car and just gave up. He could of reversed his car out of there and continue to race.... the least he could of done is continue and put on a show for the crowd. He didn't even help that commentator girl out of the car, he even took off and left her stranded alone in the car. What a joke this Pisstrana guy is.
