Devon Feil's expose about A22 and TCU

[Hank Chinaski]

First I'd like to address the fights and violence as they're the most serious and damning charges.

Yep, I did all that.

Also, is Charlie still living with him or did I read that wrong? That's got to be awkward.

I would pay to get a download overnight of a new issue. Could be really neat. A couple articles, a bunch of great photos, a video (maybe something more substantial than the wed edit) and an interview would satiate me for the month.


Is too much media a good thing? Back when I started riding there was Ride US as a bi monthly thing I could find in grocery stores, then the advent of more and more videos (on vhs) and onto the internet age. Now, its absurd the amount of quality content you can find daily! Would you and I along with the rest of our community be better off without so much? Overload and desensitization is my observation on that.

[dude...]

Alice, the Europeans run and thus ruined it.

yeehaww

This section from the interview is excellent:

"We’ve been approaching advertising a little differently too with our main focus being on a limited number of selective brands. We’re not opening our ad space up to anyone and everyone because we’d never do that with our editorial space (and we’re asking you to look at both). We only want you to see what we consider to be the best of what’s out there. There’s way too many companies in BMX and in my opinion there’s a lot that don’t bring much to the table. If anything they’re just getting in the way of those legit brands that do the good stuff and help keep BMX progressive, cool, interesting and fun."

yeehaww

Quoted for truth.

[Hmph]

 I wonder if A22 donkey punches Stevie

[barcodebilly]

Russell has always come across as a nice, chill, agreeable dude. I wonder if a22 has bullied him too.

Thats what i mean, good for him getting paid but i hope he doesn't have to take shit for it.

I hope he's getting more than $8 an hour

Lol well minimum wage went up to $9, so there you go.

[Prodigal Son]

Yea yea, you and your southern hemisphere friends can be included in that ruling bg comment.

[ginger]

We're Anglo-Saxon. It's in our nature to lay claim to other peoples shit.

[worzian]

Manifest Destiny on bg? Why, the social implications are stunning!

[KillSeth]

Rusty spent months sucking dick via IG posts in order to finally get a job at the OSS store, pretty sure he couldn't care less if he's just making minimum wage.

Respect the hustle.

[Prodigal Son]

At least he is in the position to make connections. That still does leaving him making minimum wage anywhere in the same industry.

he used to also openly berate adam on here and on his various blogs and social media outlets, back when impressing bg was a priority over impressing a22. hes not a bad kid but hes just another comeup arse nugget now which is a shame

[barcodebilly]

Arse nugget deserves a green box
