ScottBailey Remember seeing this video for the first time, back in the day. Shaq breaking the backboards! My era of b-ball. Still wishing on an original Penny jersey from the Magic. Those were the days!
jonattonyeah ScottBailey Random aside, would’ve been bonkers if the Magic never traded the pick to the Warriors and Orlando had Chris Webber and Shaq.
ScottBailey jonattonyeah I always liked Horace for the goofy glasses…I was a kid! Think he complemented the team nicely, Me and my childhood friend were always Magic vs Hornets in our driveways. Penny vs Muggsy. Great times!
Millsy Penny never gets enough recognition. Brilliant player. I was always a Kemp and Payton fan. Best era of basketball.
jonattonyeah Millsy Gary Payton came by the bar late last year on a night I was covering (Oakland native so not surprising). That dude does not stop talking shit. None stop. Doesn’t matter who’s around him. He’s good at it and he’s hilarious.
jonattonyeah I used to live on this street. It’s steeper than it looks here. He must’ve been going very, very fast.
Amps jonattonyeah Ha ha! Nearly posted this earlier. Reckon he gets up around 40mph, which is crackers in the rain, skate wheels got soooo slippery, like doing it on ice… then you remember the mad cunt filming it, even trickier!
jonattonyeah Amps I was thinking the camera dude was on a longboard. Just did a quick check and from where they start to the firehouse is a descent of 190 feet in about a fifth of a mile. That’s friggin steep. Walking up that damn thing was pain with groceries.
Amps jonattonyeah I was thinking the camera dude was on a longboard. Yeah or even better a bike with brakes!
jonattonyeah mono-stereo Extremely expensive. I lived in Cole Valley, where this is, for 10 years or so. It changed a lot in the time I was there. This is two blocks away from where they start. $8,900,000. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/63-Carmel-St-San-Francisco-CA-94117/15088528_zpid/ That’s obviously on the extreme end but I doubt you’d find a 1 bed, 1 bath for less than $800,000.
Amps Mad_Cyril If it isn’t real it’s a very good fake. What he’s doing isn’t impossible, just very difficult to stay on and takes a pair of king kong knackers imo.
jonattonyeah Mad_Cyril I’ve seen people bomb Stanyan before. It’s not uncommon. Just not on standard deck after rain. The street is very quiet and you only have to be concerned about cars pulling out on the right so it’s ideal if that’s your thing. And it is an SF thing for sure. Once a year they take over Dolores Park which is just madness.
