X Games 2014 – 11 Things We Learned from the X Games

WITH EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED THIS WEEK, THE OLYMPICS ARE LOOKING VERY INTERESTING...

 

We’re not massive fans of the petrol-head past-time that is snowmobile freestyle here at Whitelines, and we wouldn’t normally really go in for evangelical Christian rhetoric, or American made-for-TV montages either.

But watching the Moore brothers’ father (a great bear of a Texan who you wouldn’t imagine cries too often) tear up as he talked about how Colten “prayed to Caleb” (his older brother, who tragically died at last year’s X Games) left us with a genuine lump in our throat.

We don’t wanna let our hard-hearted hater image slip or anything, but that was genuinely moving. And a fitting tribute. Well done ESPN.
