Anyone been watching?

Step up last night was nasty... besides Carmichael getting a little banged up...

Can't wait to see Pastrana in Best Trick again...

And of course, they save the best for last... Rally!

watching it now... good stuff. i always like to watch the bmx big air. its about to start.

 
my only complaint is that everyone who works for espn had a bonder for pastrana. he is a big deal and all, but every 15 minutes they have a 30 second behind the scenes look at him.

other guys are bustin their balls to try innovative tricks for crying out loud.

I guess its just supply and demand, enough people wanna see pastrana, he gets good t.v. ratings

 
Pastrana is kinda a dick. I met him once and got a really bad impression.

Wow really?? I would never think that of him seeing him on interviews on TV and such... seems like a happy go lucky guy all the time.

well, today in Moto Best Trick, Mr Dick whipped off a 720 spin on his 125 Suzuki while about 50 feet in midair (OK he almost did)

landed on his ass in front of eleventy millione wannabees, laid there a couple mins, managed to get his **** together, and then limped up the hill to salute the crowd

if sticking his ass WAYYY out there for TV that makes him a dick, then I guess he's extremely guilty

if u wanna take potshots at him, go ahead. he's the Real Deal in my book no matter what anybody else wants to say otherwise. I know for a fact he gets pretty tired of meeting all manner of doods who want to come across as badder-ass than him. guess that's an occupational hazard for a Public Hero, but still....

 
when I met him he seemed like a genuine dude... the only time he rolled his eyes was when I told him he should treat himself nicer, he was limping on a gimpy hip. I probably sounded like his mom...

 
Yea, Travis is actually a pretty nice guy. I've had the chance to spend a fair amount of time around him over the years that he's been competing in RA, and he's always been a real stand up guy.

 
I watch every episode of nitro circus. he is a great entertainer and a very badass, and talanted extreme athelete. I am more critical of espn for not giving other atheletes a little attention, but I know they are just gonna give the people what they want to get ratings.

I've met travis for an autograph four times now, he treats his fans well!

 
I have only spent as much time as it takes for a few pictures and a little chit chat every year at NEFR. In addition to all his on-air stuff (shows, interviews and such) he seems like a really nice guy. Lets not forget also, he's a very famous 25-year-old!
