Each seven-person team will try to capture the other’s flag, without losing all its troops, in a format sometimes called “Speedball”. The top 4 teams from the best of three match-ups move on to the semi-finals. The series is hosted by “The First Lady of Motocross” Jamie Little, Paintball’s very own Matt Marshall and Olympic skier and national reporter Trace Worthington.

Damn it ESPN...we are not ****ing 'Troops' it is not 'sometimes' called speedball.
This better not suck

well like i said in the first post. it is a way to open up the sport of paintball, so the noobs out there better understand what we do as paintballers. we cant help that people dont kno the lingo and what formats the sport of paintball has, speedball,hyperball,woodsball,xball,airball its still paintball no matter what you call it.

Thats fine. But if we are trying to get accepted as a sport, having ESPN, a sports network, call us 'Troops' instead of 'Players' is not the right direction.

True, but he could be one of the sideline reporters and not really talking a whole lot.

The fact that it's on ESPN in the first place makes me happy... calling us "troops"... I'll let it slide for the firs time
