  1. i am down for any superdenim contest as long as it starts after the current contest ends

    im personally very fond of sammies but there is a certain appeal to sc's willingness to customize

    of course i have my preferences but as long as we're not talking 9oz flarez im sure i'll get over it

    I propose that people who intent on buying without participating should be BANNED from superfuture.

    platano, i'm impressed with your initiative

    but i'd wager half of superfuture browses from school or the office on a dynamic ip

    bans wouldn't prevent re-regs

    and banning a whole network over someone deciding not to play is poor form imo

    they should be priced at $300 MINIMUM

    whichever company we end up with there will be flakes and theres no reason to inflate the price point

    three-hundred dollars isnt necessarily a big deal to everyone

    (cats with money can be douchebags too)

    at the same time a lower tag would likely draw more participants

    Lets just pick Sugarcane now.. and start collecting deposits. :P

    lets try to gather as much info as we can from said companies

    so that we might take some time and evaluate all our options before we proceed with this as a community

    (this goes out to all the nubs and lurkers itching to pull the trigger already)

    beatle and blackplatano

    as you two have begun to build rapport with samurai and sugarcane respectively

    im sure all contestants-to-be would much appreciate if you could clarify each company's offerings of:

    -denim selection

    -cut selection

    -supertalk goodies (willingness to customize selvage, arctuates, hardware)

    -projected price range

    once we have a better idea of what we have to choose from we can start a focused discussion

    and honestly for everyone championing a change of sponsor

    lets not forget how good samurai has been to us with the first contest

    -price break

    -markdown for customs

    -custom lot # on patches

    -red tab variation

    it may not seem like a lot, but for a relatively small company they went out of their way to give thirty denim nerds foundations for a fun contest (though i guess they extended the run of s0500xx's after us anyway, but i digress)

    im not saying we should unquestionably stick with them but at the same time we shouldnt be unappreciative

  2. going through my room i found an old copy of the village voice from back when i was younger and dumber

    flipping through the phone sex and escort service ads occupying the last few pages

    i began to wonder

    when you call up "oriental flowers" or "asian delights" or "oriental asians" or "chopstixxx" or "eastern oriental pleasures"

    do they have some girl on the other end doing the whole "ooh me so horny" thing

    and if they do, do you think there are ever white, black, latina, or otherwise non-asian aspiring actresses on the line

    im tempted to call, but the paper is back from '99 and im at my parents' house at the moment

    though tbh i would love to see their reaction to "sweet eastern touch" when the verizon bill comes in

  3. are you guys fuckin retarded

    yall are just haters, obviously

    eric brunetti is the greatest there ever was, greatest there ever will be

    supreme, nigo, adidas, jesus christ, evander holyfield: they all got where they are by biting eric's steez

    the nazis fuckin stole swastikas from him man

    so you fuckin nerds better quit talking shit if you know whats good for you

    fuct rolls deep and knows where the fuck you live

  4. Bring the 90s back. I miss Pippen, Reggie, Olajuwon, Mitch, Payton and co.

    yesssssss

    bring back that nba jam steez

    edit: penny cannot get enough respect

    if he were on supertalk his rep would be past blue into purple

  5. i will be there to collect what almondcrush owes me in person and make cheeps dream come true (apart from the alley and ditching diddy bits) as part of my upcoming fly round the world meeting people from sufu tour

    are you fibbing?

    if not then :o :o :o

  6. i def have much respect for floyd

    with speed like that you cant not respect him

    but i feel like his approach to this whole bout was a bit tired

    especially the criticism he spat about oscar preying on opponents past their prime (given that was essentially what he himself was doing)

    tbh i thought it was silly that he talked of how he would massacre oscar, the much bigger much stronger man, whereas it was obvious from the start he would be largely unable to hurt de la hoya

    the whole script was so ali-derivative, only minus the climax

    as far as the closeness of the fight goes, that first volley of hooks to the body definitely slowed floyd down for a while

    and though he definitely controlled the later rounds with some real crisp counters, a big chunk of his punch count were nothing more than pokes with his left arm extended (not really jabs, i dont really know what to call them)

    no doubt oscar was dragging his feet by the end, but not due to any real accumulated damage

    basically given his quicker hands, quicker feet, and superior endurance im simply disappointed that pretty boy played it so safe

  7. what an underwhelming fight

    played out as everyone expected i guess

    so much clinching after so much shit talking from floyd

    could have been a draw imo, seeing as oscar took the initiative for most of the fight while floyd counterpunched effectively although maybe too sporadically

    de la hoyas fault he lost

    as he began to run out of gas (which took a lot longer than i expected) he wasted what energy he had by going for these huge high swings hoping for some impossible knockout

    even though floyd didnt seem too shook, you could tell the early body shots had some effect as his legs lost some of their spring, he took to dodging with his head (oftentimes just leaning back, so many prime opportunities for step in body shots)

    i guess oscar was too mad or too old but he would waste his step ins, let floyd tie his arms up, and then almost as an afterthought hed toss these pointless flurries at a range at which he couldnt even rotate his hips

    if i were freddy roach id have told him jab then body every round after the fourth tbh

    ineffective cornering and clinging to a losing strategy lost the fight for oscar imo

    ill give it up to floyd though

    he did what he had to do to win the fight

    i think he knew from the first round he had no chance at really hurting de la hoya

    psychological game was tight, very effective at what he did

    first undercard was lots of fun at least

  8. i feel like this one will come down to what de la hoya does while he still has gas in the tank

    as the stronger smarter fighter i think his best bet would be to aim to do some damage as early on as possible

    if it goes to the later rounds the younger faster floyd will just pick him apart for a decision win

  9. There is one girl who I have consistently hooked up with every time we've seen each other when we're both single (and a couple times when she wasn't single). never ruined anything, thankfully. I generally text her the next day and say, "well that was a mistake. Let's not let that happen again," and then it happens again and again.

    It's cool when you have friends you can bone and then forget that you boned them when you see them around or call them up.

    see i need friends that realize sex and love are not the same
