I am a Youth Ice Hockey Coach @ Sharks Ice @ Oakland on 18th & San Pablo (Between Telegraph). Its hoody as all fuck out here...I use to drive there, but parking is basicly non-existent, I wont park on the street cuzz I wont have a car to come back to and public parking is F'n Outrageous for a city that is fucken bankrupt. But its not like people would want to come out here and have a nice outing and enjoy themselves anyways, though there is some descent night life starting to come out/develop out there. Love taking Bart to go coach too. Get off @ 19th Street (Fat Cat Alley) where all the crack heads and tweaks run around. Oakland has made me appreciate where I live thats for sure. :(

lawlz. I practically grew up in Oakland (lived in Alameda as long as I can remember).
Went to Kindergarten-8th grade at some school in the hills,
most of my old friends live in the hills (not hood what-so-ever)
and I rowed for the Oakland Strokes Crew Team for all 4 yrs in high school.

I remember going to that ice rink as a kid lol.
Don't get me wrong, there are some really nice spots in Oakland, and some really nice people trying to clean up the image of that city, but for the majority of the people that live there...it seems as they just want to go down the toilet and bring the city with them.
Granted Jerry Brown didn't help them much (fucken retard, now hes the Governor) there just isn't allot that attracts people to come out to the O. You wouldn't believe how hard it is to recruit young kids to come out and play youth hockey (travel or in house), as most who play this game have a bit of money and when you mention Oakland, they go..."Uh, the Ghetto, yea no thanks, I like coming back to my M5 or CL63 AMG at the end of the night".
I will say this though, as rough of a city as Oakland is, it has character and if they could clean the image up, there is allot of potential growth possibilities there. If you haven't noticed, they are pretty much so forcing allot of the low income families out of the Downtown area with all the new/modern Apartment complexes popping up (rent is out of there possibility). Allot of the people that I speak to on the Regular tell me its a move the city is making, to force the poor and low income black/African american families out of the DT area and into the outskirts.
I have allot of kids I coach that are under privilege kids that can't even afford to play the game, but we find ways to offer them the opportunity because its just not fair, especially for the kids who just want to be kids and have fun, safely. They deserve better, and I'm glad organizations like the San Jose Sharks & NHL are offering things like the "Hockey is For Everyone" program that supports underprivileged kids in low income families an opportunity to get involved with an awesome game like Ice Hockey. Keeps them off the streets, in school, and provides for a better opp for there futures.
good eye dude, it definitely looks like it. flares appear to be molded into the body and the skirts look very similar as well. if you could see the (lack of) side moldings that would be the giveaway.
not to be racist but i've had multiple african americans comment on how they love my car. I've seen pics of e30's rolling through africa with at least 15-20 africans on them with ak-47's. WILD. its in the african blood. Hope this wasn't too racist, forgive me as I am intoxicated.
I hate modded emtree, I hate modded cawrz, I hate jdm, I hate swag, I hate stanceyolokids, I hate bags (on cars), I hate stuff that is slowz, I hate tires.
Well, since Frank Ocean is not a rapper despite this thread's title, no. Frank Ocean is a part of the musical collective OFWGKTA, which is primarily a rap group but also includes singers, producers and non musical contributors.

All of this "music" is sooooo bad. I miss Hyro.
And unger, I killed it today, only one ham slamming fall on a footplant to fakie. Other than that pop tarts and grinders the whole day. Huff did a front foot impossible cruising. It was effing sick. Local @ 8:30 I will buy you a beer and let you touch my swell bow.
