Most paintballers under the age of 18 have their parents pay for them. If you are one of the few players that pay for yourself put this in your sig.
originally posted by Ansain:Funny strategy I used. I handed my team mate my gun and started yelling about bees, then jumped out from behind a tree and kept swatting myself pretending I was getting attacked by yellow jackets! Must have been quite a spectacle for the 5 guys on the other team, until they got shot by my mate!

that made no sense.
What does you being "a gun whore" have to do with anything.
And with things like this, paintball well be a sport that people can "get somewhere" with.

yes they can get somewhere with it. But does any cash come with it no. Yes you are living the dream of being a pro paintballer but come on. My dream is to be a pro football player and hey what a coincidence they make a lot of money! Also don't criticize me about my post when you can't spell.

it is kinda weird, but maybe they want people to show up from colleges when they have more time (over the summer) to drive to these far off fields to come watch. i mean basketball and football just have a bigger fan base and are more noticed in a college.

paintball is just so hard to flim to, unless u get flim crews out on the field with $100000 buck stuff to flim it. i mean its nice when NPPL.com does there broadcast, i dont know why they just cant do something like that, it keeps everything simple and stuff. Like u all said be4, the SP ESPN paintball stuff was sweet. ESPN needs to pick up some events, PSP, u know even forgen stuff like LAPPL and milen. any coverage is good coverage. and the interviews dont get in the way, just look at dvds and videos online, just edit them for all the good parts

Ok you clearly lack intelligence.
Paintball on TV = money
Why?
Advertisers pay to have their commercials on the TV.
Sponsors of the event pay for things and what not.
So on a college level the only people that would make money would be the university and FOX.
But
College paintball allows the sport to become more known to the general public and thus after time a league can be created just like any other sport (NFL, MLB, etc...). Money from airing on tv + team endorsements + "tickets" to events + gear that is sold = money for the teams.
It can easily get there and it just might very soon.
