Maybe it's news because a lot of people didn't know. Is it really that hard to connect the dots?

I saw him on and off the field in Chicago. Aftershock looked better there and was close to making the top 4.

This is a little late but I bet a bunch of people didn't know.

I don't think a thread was made about xsv's pick ups at the beginning of the season... Wanna make a thread about that?

Shock is a very old team with a great history and many of the former greats have came up with aftershock or have been in shock jerseys at some point in their careers. If shock is around they will always have support from fans especially with how big paintball has become in the Midwest.

Add to that, aftershock is just a great team name...

Also good luck carl i remember watching him make some huge runs hope he can bring some much needed offense to the way the psp is played today

I agree, shock definitely sounds way cooler than xsv but honestly great players have come from both camps. Nicky Cuba, Glenn Takemoto, Greg Hastings, Greg Siewers, Rusty Glaze, I mean the list goes on and on.

The person I was quoting said many greats have come up in the shock camp OR WORN SHOCK JERSEYS AT SONE POINT. ie. everyone I mentioned still qualifies....... You need to learn to read before getting all butt hurt about teams you don't even play on

None of those players got their start with those teams.

Nicky Cuba never played with Shocktech. He did play with Aftershock, but he actually came up through the Ground Zero camp.

Glen got noticed on KAPP but then most of that team turned into Avalanche.

Rusty played with Avalanche but then most that team became Infamous.

Paintball News Rules
  1. No Upping threads. If you have something to say, please do, but don't post in the thread just to take it to the top of the forum.
  2. Do not post "1st post", "1st", "First post" or anything similar (or with any other number) at any point in a thread, even if you post a comment too. It is really annoying and it will result in a ban.
  3. If you don't like something, say why instead of just calling it ugly, lame, gay or any other name. If it is old, simply post a link or report the post with a link to the older News thread.
  4. Please don't post links for places to buy items. That encourages stores, sponsored players and other people to do it and spam the site.
If you have questions, please post them in the Talk to Mods/Admins forum.
