Some of the X Games Announcers...

[coolhandluke]

ESPN needs to broadcast the Xgames on two channels:

one for the general population. with more generic terminology.

and one for actual participants in the sport. with full trick names

(including spin direction and grab), quips from the judge's meeting,

etc.

we all know tha, but should the general public who only see skiing at the x-games should know it and think skiers are all skiing to makemoney and impress judges?

U relize how they were only comparing everyone run to tanners because tanner's run had the highest score the entire time. If someone was gonna take 1st there run would have to beat tanners thats why they were comparing everyone's run to him. If dumont would of been in first they would of all compared everyones run to dumont.

By the way credit where credit's due that bottom part was an excerpt from an interview of Mike Douglas by Dave Pires of Cream. Should've posted that in the original one.

uhmm...believe it or not, but it can be a big deal, have you ever ridden pipe at night, let alone in snow,it isn't as easy as you think....also when youre used to switching lenses and goggles all the time, it can change a lot especially when theres that much money on the line, i would want the best goggles possible

The guy hosting the X-Center is the biggest tool ever and has no idea what he's talking about, he's pretty much the ron burgundy of announcing (meaning he'll read anything on the teleprompter) apparently tanner did a 560 towards the end of his run and apparently jussi oksanen is the aspen local doing whiskey flips (not peter), i laughed at his stupidity and lack of knowledge.
