I saw this on www.airsmith.com and thought it was good.
MURPHY'S PAINTBALL LAW
1. You are not a superman
2. If it's stupid but works, it isn't stupid.
3. Don't look conspicuous - it draws fire.
4. When in doubt, empty your hopper
5. Never defend a bunker with someone braver than you are.
6. Never forget that your paintgun is dependant on O-rings.
7. If your assault is going well, it's an ambush.
8. No plan survives the first contact intact.
9. All five second paint grenade fuses will burn down in three seconds.
10. Try to look unimportant because the other team may be low on paint.
11. If you are forward of your position, you're on your own.
12. The other team's diversion you are ignoring is the main attack.
13. The important things are always simple.
14. The simple things are always hard.
15. The easy way is always covered with RT's.
16. If you are short of everything except opponents, the game has begun.
17. When you have secured an area, don't forget to tell the other team.
18. Incoming paintballs have the right of way.
19. Friendly fire -- isn't.
20. If your opponents are in range, "SO ARE YOU!!!!"
21. No tournament ready team ever thought they carried enough paint.
22. Beer math is: two beers times 37 men = 49 cases.
23. Top Gun math is: three newbies plus one flag plus two veterans = 14 eliminations.
24. Things that must be together to work are usually left at home.
25. Radio's will fail as soon as you need a field judge desperately.
26. Anything you do can get you eliminated, including doing nothing.
27. Trracers work both ways.
28. The only thing more accurate than incoming opponent fire is incoming friendly fire.
29. Make it tough for your opponent to get in and you can't get out.
30. If you take more than your fair share of flags, you will have more than your fair share of
flags to take.
31. When both teams are convinced that they are about to lose, they are both right.
32. Professional paintballers are predictable, but the world is full of amateurs
33. Murphy was a paintball player
