I almost don't watch the news anymore because seems like everytime I do there's a John "My-stance-is-whoever-my-current-audience-is" Kerry campaign commercial on.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR REMINDING ME. I totally forgot about that, I was trying to make myself remember to turn on the tv at 9 (I never watch TV, especially the news...it's all stupid sh*t these days).

I'm going to see if I can record it and I'll try and let you guys know what the bullcrap was about this time...

In the previews it showed guys on utilities with no helmets flying around and jumping and trying freestyle...I almost puked. Kinda reminded me of that kid with the invisible 440...haha..Jk.

imo tv is nothing more than ad's, bs, and propaganda of some type and the only thing it revolves around is money.

I drives me nuts watching it and then so even more when everyone thinks if its on tv or in the media then its serious/right.

the news uses tragedy's to make money. (9/11, war in iraq, ect, ect)

then you have fads that people always beleive to be true or 10x better than what they are. Atkins which is a load of bs also because only a small proportion of the weight you lose is actually fat. Mainly its muscle and water weight and not only that but you don't get the nutrients you need.


:mad: i could go on forever but this **** drives me nuts and it seems like you see this crap all the friggen time.

Nothing but grade A bull****.

Exactly! This is why I don't watch tv, and the "diets" that my mom goes on are freakin' insane. Absolutely no nutrients or anything, it's like eating cardboard! She won't buy any "real" food for me either, the most "real" thing I have in my house right now is Mac 'n Cheese and "No Name" steaks!

Like the guy above me said about that kid that broke his pelvis on his 1st or 2nd time riding. I am 14 and have a 400ex. All of my friends want to ride it but they havn't ever riden a quad in their life! Then when I tell them no all they say is "oh, you just don't want me to show you up." Its people like that that make our sport look bad.

CRASH AT YOUR OWN ABILITY!!!
