I like the variety of leagues personally. I think it gives everyone a chance to see what they like more. It doesn't bother me much. I just want to play paintball.

Maybe they will rename the league to reflect the two entities that it was born from.

The NXL and the PSP

so two letters from one and two from the other.

NL
and PP

so...NPPL....oh ****.

I heard Nashville won't happen. But I honestly don't know. I just find it very odd that the PSP is staying so quiet if Nashville is really going to take place.

Hahaha, you went old school there!

To everyone that wasn't around, that actually did happen with the NPPL in the 90's. Funny thing, I think Tom Cole was president of the league back then.

6 of one half dozen of the other. No real difference between Cleveland and Nashville, it's a paintball tournament does it really matter where it is held?

I think I remember reading Chris Raehl posted something about how PSP just invested hundreds of thousands on a new air system for this year. Stuff like that adds up I suppose.

The compressors and webcast equipment alone is worth a few hundred grand if I'm not mistaken.

It really isn't a bad idea for PSP to cash out while their league is still worth something, rather than wasting a ton of money fighting NXL then losing it all.

But does it really impact regular divisional teams? Personally, our group is still going to play the same regional events as before; and regardless of which organization has the 'World Cup' maybe we'll get there as well.

I'm just hoping that there is an event in the upper midwest closer to us, as Chicago was a 12-14 hour drive total and was the closest event. NXL Minneapolis maybe

Hopefully NXL moves towards having associated trade shows, other action or combat sports.

I honestly believe that people forget that PSP stands for Paintball Sports Promotions. They are promoters, no different than concert organizers or event planners. If someone offered straight cash for a business that's potentially in trouble and no guaranteed repeat business, I can see no reason why you wouldn't take it.

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.
