“What I love about the ESPN X Games is the innocence of the athletes, the way all the snowboard girls look just exactly like our own Gretchen Bleiler—blonde, big-eyed, and absolutely fearless,” writes Post blogger Michael Conniff. “I love their sportsmanship: the way they actually seem to root for each other without prompting. No other sport does sportsmanship like the X Games. That alone is cause for celebration.” But Conniff isn’t without criticism, “Other than the host, Sal Masakela, the announcers don’t help things one little bit. In order to win, according to these experts, the X Gamers have to go either ‘massive’ or ‘huge’ though there’s no way to know which vaporous adjective is more massively vapid.” An admittedly minor annoyance compared to the “final problem.”
