it did crack me up, but its articles like this that give paintball a bad name 
real asshole who wrote this article.
about intimidiation, there was a study done that showed that a team wearing red would on average do better than a team wearing another color.

it really doesnt give it a bad name tho... this is a pro talking about playing on the pro level. its an article published on a paintball website, that only paintballers are going to read. so its not going to turn away new players at all.... hes just a hardass that doesnt care about your feelings or how many welts you end up with. he wants a championship ring and he'll do what he can get it.
kinda reminds be of markus neilson

he never said to literaly stomp on puppies and to kick kittens... he said to get in a mindset of not caring and going balls out on the other team. to ride or die and win or go home. stomping on puppies and kicking kittens was just a refrence of rage and hate, which are key factors into playing some hardcore paintball
ps - shorten your sig, you too croix

Good article, nice point about the "watch out for this team" thing. Never thought doing that already puts me in a rut.

"Do you really think I mean any of the things I say?"
(yes, it's in there.)
Only point worth reading?
"Ok I gotta stick to the point. The point is to have a tough mindset."
Wow...same for anything else that puts you against someone else or another team. Stunning. I didn't even have to write an entire article about being an ass to get that across.

sure he couldve put that into 1 sentence, but it doesnt come off nearly as strong nor do people even take notice to it. the article represents a true feeling for what its like to go out there and play your heart out. you gotta be tough and not be friends with people. on the field you have to hate your oppenents, off the field you can be best friends. but when you are gunning at each other, you have to kill or be killed... or in other words, stomp on puppies and not give a sh!t about anyone else

i liked that article, makes me want to go out there with his mindset and see what happens. i have the mind set telling me every team sucks and is not better then us so we can beat them, even if they are better, there not.

Awesome article, so true. Some of the people who commented on it have no idea...
I would kill to see one game played if everyone had the same mindset as this.

go watch oakland or detroit get fired up in a huddle before a game. its pure hate, and thats what its all about. you have to run on pure anger and hate to fuel your instincts. theres no nice paintball
