You've said that the rumors about you being an asshole are fake, but somehow the rumor was persistent enough that they felt a need to ask you about it in your interview in The Skateboard Mag. I know many people from San Jose, and despite the fact that they don't all know each other, they all claim that you are the biggest dick they have ever met. So, basically, why do you think everybody who has ever met you who isn't going to sponsor you or get you anywhere in the skate industry, thinks you are a huge asshole and an embarassment to San Jose? Is everybody lying just to lie, or is there a conspiracy to keep nice guy Daryl Angel down? I'm not saying its not all made up, I'm just saying, why would so many people make up rumors about you like that?
edit: please don't say jealousy, for the most part they love SJ pros...just not you.
