There are only a few people complaining.

it's hard to say that they would really give up the league because of some people complaining. What about everyone else.

It only takes 5 people expressing negative thoughts about the league for them to close out the hundred of other people involved?

That's not very professional. Might as well axe the haters and keep the people that are happy with how things are.

And for him to say that he is ending the league do to unappreciative players is complete bull****, i have seen people put so much into this league.

So yes, in my opinion Louie can go **** himself.

anyone notice at Xball.com the AXBL Termination notice is under Dec. 25? Thought that was sort of funny.

well im sure its not ONLY the complaning but i think its a safe bet to say it didnt help the situation ad the economy and the and the loss of SP(although im not sure how much they helped this league) and this is what you get. I mean im not defending them in anyway, I never even played AXBL, I played NYPL last year, but from the post's i was reading over the last couple of days....

Trust me, I know what you mean about being a part of it. I started the NYPS with Jared...after I sold my part of it off, I continued to help Jared out with the website...then the NYPS became the NYXL...then, it became the AXBL. I was still part of the league helping with the website.

I've met with the folks in Montreal, such as Louie & Robert & Chris...And I can say from my personal experience that these guys are good guys. They are all good guys, including Mitch too.

It sucks to see the league end like this....I know you guys have alot vested in it as far as money, but I don't think anyone realizes what other people have sacrificed to give you this league...How many of these guys that you want to see go f themselves have given up time with their kids & wife, time with their friends & family, their own money (if you guys think there's a profit to be turned in this league, you're kidding yourselves).

So, before you want to curse someone out, think about what that person has lost just to let you play a game. If you think they still deserve to be *****ed out, then atleast have the balls to do it face to face.

Very disappointed in everyone.
1) to the owners of the teams, ya i was pretty pissed off that we didnt at least get 1 event in NE, but that's life, you don't have to curse everyone and there mothers complaining about how no ones listening to us...

2) Very disappointed in the leagues reaction to the complaining...just because some team owners complain doesn't mean you take away everyone's candy.

And for the team owners don't think I am saying anything negative about you I believe everyone should voice there opinions, but public accusation was not the best way.

time to get the local tourny hustle on
or psp events

thanks axbl for a good 2009 series, too bad you couldnt give us a 2010

a few points i would like to make. first off if this was supposed to be a league for the players with players intrests in mind why when ever a issue was brought up. the league never showed a bit of interest in what we had to say.
if the league wants it to be good for all players why demand all of there money before any thing was discussed with owners. and after all money was in they never asked for opinions or anything else. they made all decisions that they thought were best for them selves.

second point is just the total bs of this press release. we are doing what the players want and get rid of the league way to take your ball and go home. they are upset that the americans arnt as greatfull for there league idea. maybe in canada where they play second rate paintball this league idea is the greatest thing. dont get me wrong there are great canadian players and teams but they dont stack up agsint the american teams. but in the us a small regional league that doesnt actully care about players will not go over with the best results.
