I've been beating this drum for years irl, but it's an absolute fucking embarrassment to skateboarding that the EIC of skateboarding's most prominent publication is a barely literate junkie kook. Thrasher should've 86ed him years ago and handed the reigns over to Burnett.
Also, while we're spreading rumors about Phelps being a loathed dumbass, I remember hearing that he's banned from Jersey. I think he tried swinging his dick around at a demo in Sayreville and pissed off the wrong people. I think @andrew_nagavelli posted about it and NJ Skateshop backed it up in the comments. Feel free to chime in if you know more about this. *coughcoughNieratkocoughcough*
