theabortionatorIf he wasn't getting old I'd hope he'd buy a set of twins and try and compete, just to piss people off in this thread.
skiermanHe's a fucking ginger. Have you all forgotten this?????
darthlobster603“Among the allegations, Zawaideh claims White sent her sexually explicit and graphic images of “engorged and erect penises” and forced her to watch sexually disturbing videos “including videos sexualizing human fecal matter.” One of the videos Zawaideh claims she was forced to watch was a couple killing a bear and then having sex on top of it.“

i mean I know the guys a dickhead but I kind of feel like this woman’s trying to Kobe Bryant him because he showed her two girls one cup and acted like a 10 year old.
captainslackHe also had a really bad crash 4 months ago trying the back to back dub 14s. Got a lot of respect for him coming back from that and throwing them down on his last olympic run. https://www.snowboarder.com/videos/shaun-white-crash-video-62-stitches-needed-fall-new-zealand/
From what I've read he was pushed quite a lot by his dad (may be wrong on this) and I think being pushed from such a young age results in the corporate machine that he is. If you think about tennis - The Williams sisters, Andy Murray - they all have the same attitude, win at all costs and I feel he's the same way (although they do give back to the tennis community through kids workshops etc). Then you get Red Gerard who obviously loves the sport, grew up being supported but not helicoptered and rides to have fun and puts down sick runs while doing so. Different mentalities from being brought up differently.
Got respect for him but I'm not a fan of his
Ryanvdonkred? that kid gets a lot of credit, but he had a huge advantage over 99.9% of even pros, his family could afford to buy a seven figure SECOND home halfway across the country.
