I didn’t want to post right after the SD post, and now I just saw it on SUX but I have to. Sheckler is the new BAM and I can’t help but notice the glaring TYPO that has yet to be corrected all morning. I know we all here at haveboard have been known to make a typo every now and again, but if I had to choose between “Life Or Ryan”, I’d choose LIFE!
Sorry MTV, you just made the joke THAT much easier to make.
UPDATE: Thanks to DO, I found these links about BAM over at perezhilton.com:
Still a Jackass and Fuck Rehab
what ever happened to BAM?
I think his life came to a point where he can’t really go anywhere now without being MOBBED, so he built his own private skatepark in his yard. Sucks to be famous, I guess. In Ryan’s case, sucks to be a teenage Pro Skateboarder. Whoa is He. Sucks to be able to AFFORD a private facility to then live your life in seclusion, huh. Ryan has plenty to look forward to, I guess.
perezhilton.com indicated Bam was in and out of rehab due to a combination of substance abuse and marital status.
That show looks pretty boring.
“life of bitchardo”… now THAT’s entertainment!

I’m the only banger bam’s did in the past 7 years
I used to see him at the Park all the time. Nowadays, not so much. For a while I thought he was just always on tour. It’s too bad. I don’t know why somebody would alienate themselves like that.
i hope they stone him. http://youtube.com/watch?v=X67lJ8eC1J0
Gonzo, that was great! Laughing my face off right now. LMFO
That’s amazing.
dude didnt seclude himself for fun. people harass him everywhere. hes starting to look a lot more like phil these days! the inner fat kid is turning into a fat man. remember that interview in big brother where the caption was something like ” remember this photo of bam skating so you can reflect when hes found dead in a hotel all bloated and elvisy”. so true. i cant believe im saying this but – poor bam. MTV ruined his life.
I don’t think it was suggested that he secluded himself for fun. That’s not how I meant it, anyway. The seclusion was brought on by allowing himself to be put into the spotlight in so many ridiculous ways. The comparison was made because Sheckler is walking down the same path in a sense. MTV money is tainted. Mo’ Money Mo’ Problems. I love how they are pitching the show like, “I just want to be a regular teenager” (with a camrea crew following my friends and family). Ah the good old days of being a teenager. I remember when my house and life were filled with nothing but video camera’s. Ah those were the days! /sarcasm
dude fuckin cries in the trailer! did you see his “spread” in rolling stone? holy living fuck! people are going to think all skateboarders are gay again by the time the dust settles on this one. its weird reflecting on how different “skateboarders” are now then when i was a youngster. me and the old ball and chain are celebrating our 20th anniversary this year. i am an old dude.
Rock stardom is for rock and roll. So watch out all you pro skaters who wanna be rock stars, cuz Cubehead is taking over!
didn’t dude invent kickflips? cut him some slack. plus his dad is a punk. i smoke a pack a day and i whooped his ass in online poker. say what?
skateboarding is the new rollerblading.
And I’m totally gay.
