Paintball TV

lets remember that NO one is putting paintball on cable right now because some whore (still trying to find who it is) sued ESPN for putting paintball on TV for some dumb thing like not having the players consent or something like that.

It is Jerry Braun (or more specifically his publishing company) which you are calling a whore.

The reason for the lawsuit was not for "some dumb thing" it was because, according to the suit, ESPN did not air the shows during prime viewing times as they had agreed (instead they aired them several weeks late, at time slots like 2 in the morning). The lawsuit was to force them to air the paintball shows as per their agreement with the producers of the show (who funded it by selling commercials in the show that would be next to worthless at 2 am Monday in comparison to Saturday afternoon).

See you on the field,
