Uh oh the Ob!
The article simply states the way it's been over the last year. Everyone should know that all industries are affected.
I think you were going here...
"Obama needs to live up to his "Change" speech and start changing things to help the economy."
Oooh... I'm sorry did that offend you?

Wow, way to state the obvious ESPN. I pretty much figured out that the skate business was having a problem with we had to close the park.

How is this news?

"The earth circles the sun! FILM AT 11!"

Maybe ESPN should put on more skate events? That might help the skate economy.
When I realized that one person cannot solve all the worlds problems, I resolved to be a person who contributes to them.

Didn't ESPN want to cancel the vert portion of X-games? But the skaters told them it was all or nothing from what I heard.
So close yet so Favre!

I heard that too. That's why they built that bowl, because they were planing to cancel vert.
At least the public parks went up during the boom and are still going up in towns. You really can't take those away from people and by the time they're trashed, I won't be able to skate any more.

LOL. Yup, Bush should have veto'd everything the Democratic congress (including Barack) tried to pass. I blame Bush too.

that literally makes no sense andrew.
when bush was in power, i was not a fan of the "blame bush for everything" crowd, nor am i a fan of the "blame obama for everything" crowd.
blind partisanship is stupid, destructive, and counter productive.
but the truth is, obama did not ruin the economy.
nor did bush specifically, but to ignore the facts is to remain willfully ignorant.
