Laziness and Destiny

Destiny made sure the comment with this video was held in moderation. Laziness made me withhold it until I could make it into it’s own post. So yeah… Commercials… Skateboards… Ubiquitous. This web site is now irrelevant. Two skateboard spots for Dickies, one featuring Patrick Melcher and two featuring “SLAM.” Dickies pants indestructible? Sure they can withstand extreme dude’s hijinks, but they are destructible vs repeated old man butt slides on the transition.

– Thanks to Eric for the tip.

    Speaking of commerce, the first one of y’all who can come up with an explanation of why Amare Stoudamire, at the press conference after the Knicks beat the Bulls on Christmas, was rocking a jacket with “skate or die” on the shoulder, wins a “Tha’s right” from Karl Malone.

      I think that his new Nike “Destroyer” jacket he got to design…..saw that too, actually, thought it sed do or die….

        Tha’s… wrong! I’m guessing that he’s sponsored by EA Sports, which first came out with a video game called “Skate Or Die” in ’87 (the other shoulder of the jacket said “Since 1987”, btw), but I don’t know that they’re making bank on it these days, especially compared to their baller games, so why he was wearing it, I couldna’ say. Maybe he skates (or, still would if his team let him)?? I’m sure Dwayne Wade or Manu Genobli would make great vert skaters, given their control in the air.

          And how come those pinheads at Nike haven’t come up with a “Just skate it” campaign?? Featuring iffy terrain…. I guess the skate division doesn’t want to be too reminiscent of the parent company.

          Appeared it was you who posted the question as David Stern, I was addressing that post. No worries

  5. Yes. “Slam” is Chris Lambert’s alter ego who hosts a show on Fuel TV. Pretty hilarious.

    Look can we all just agree that front rocks with your hand down is totally HOMO? not that there is anything wrong with it… I just dont want my kids seeing that poop.

    1. Hell yeah buddy. We can argue park terrain to death but you’re the Jesus of skateboarding today with that one.

  8. Who cares if they are indestructible? What I want to know, and I think I speak for everyone, is whether they will make my ass look good.
