The X Life

[AmyKay]

This show premiered last night on Vh1, it follows 3 "extreme" sports stars: "Nasty" a BMXer, "Twitch" a Motorcrosser, and JPG a skateboarder, and their wives/fiancees/girlfriends (sorry I dont know their real names).

Anyone else watching? I used to be a big X-sports fan, so I was drawn to this. It was kinda hard for me to watch, knowing more of their personal life and now seeing them as more than just themselves if that makes any sense. the guys have a pretty dangerous job and I found myself feeling for the wife/fiancee when their men were "playing".

Most notable (to me) was these guys were at the Dew Open where TJ Lavin fell from his bike, it kinda showed that and how everyone reacted.

Overall, I liked it-I think I will try to keep up with this show.

My bf and I watched and we both liked it, too. It was really scary seeing what happened to TJ and how everyone reacted - I'm glad he's going to (hopefully!) make a full recovery.

I think I liked Twitch and his girlfriend(?) the best. They both seemed normal-ish and sweet.

Cory mentioned the other night something about his g/f (Nicole) being on America's next top model, and I don't really remember her so I did a little digging. She was on the first season and one of the first few out. they didn't think she was committed enough to the "process". Per Wiki (I know, grain of salt) she turned down a chance to go on a reward because she wanted to talk to her bf on the phone. wonder if that was Cory? Anyway...pretty interesting.

I caught one ep this week and fell asleep during the other. Nothing I can think of that I wanted to comment on...

I was so happy Cory mentioned Nicole being on Top Model! I knew she looked super familiar to me but I just couldn't place her. And I'm pretty sure it was Cory who she was dating while she was on the show, she was always worried about talking to him because she was afraid he was cheating. lol

And in my previous post I got confused about who I like best. I do like Twitch but I can't stand his gf. I was thinking of Cory and Nicole when I posted, they're my favorite couple.

Yea she looked very familiar to me too! I don't like twitch's gf/wife either, there's something I cant put my finger on about her. I like PLG (I got his initials wrong in the first post) and his girl seems alright...just not sure yet. She wants him to marry her, but yet still wants to party, especially on days he has competitions? doesn't sound good to me but every relationship is different. I really like Cory and Nicole tho.
