Ditto, although I don't think it's sad. It's their loss not mine.

Barbell Straight Leg Deadlift

doesnt that guys form look horrible? his back rounds at the bottom.
thanks for the links
oh and your not supposed to use your lower back to lift the weight when deadlifting right?
i have heard many opinions on this, some say use my back, some say use my legs.

and you are suppoed to tighten your core (flex abs, lower back, obliques, etc) right?

That guy's doing stiff-legged deadlifts, which are used more as a hamstring exercise than for lower back. Watch the other videos Deech posted for the other forms which are used more as lower back movements.

just one thing to note when you watch these videos is that the lifter's head is always up and always facing foreward.

This will really help keep your back straight.

ohh so for stiff leg stuff its ok to round a little bit?

I wouldn't suggest purposely letting your back round on any movement like that but i believe some people do to get maximum stretch of the hamstrings.

Here's a video of stiff-legged deads with a straight back:
