    Had he done it to me, I would have made sure of it!

      i was playing with some friends and we were on an airball field. i broke for the fifty right side where there was a snake with a dorito in the middle of it. i was planning on turning at the doriton and posting on the other team's back left player. i started to slow down, turned the corner and slipped on wet grass. as i slipped past the edge of the dorito, the opposing teams front player who had slid into the dorito but also misjudged due to the wet grass took out my legs, breaking my knee, then as i fell, i landed upside down and broke my collarbone. sounds fun, eh? also messed up my shocker a bit...but gladly, it wasnt my angel.

        Way back in the day I was playing backyard ball with some friends. I got blindsided and shot in the side of the head (with the old masks that only covered the front of the face). Well, I took a nasty hit in the side of the head and lost my balance, and managed to roll down a pretty steep hill......................

        (That's not all)



        .....Into some rusty barbed wire some fool had strung out at the botton of the hill. I broke my ankle, hit my head and got a concussion, and needed to shots at the hopital from all the cuts I got on the barbed wire (and from my efforts, and those of my friends, to remove myself).
        Or better yet, why don't you kill yourself. No, really, die. Drop dead, don't leave a note, in fact burn your house while your little ego is stuck in a bench vice so that you'll also incenerate yourslef and everything you own with it. Because that's all you're worth. You're not even wirh thte time it'll take for the house to burn down, so just kill yourself. You're a waste of space. You are nothing, you always will be nothing. Don't leave a note, you're not worth the ink. - Tyger

          This one didn't happen to me, it was a guy at the local proshop. I was in one day to look at a gun, and when he got up I noticed he not only had his left arm in a sling, but one of those huge plastic leg braces on his left leg. Turns out, he did this not playing, but REFFING.

          He was marshalling a rec game, wasn't wearing hi-tops, and running alongside a player. Looking at the player (and not where he was going), he slipped and rolled his foot. He's a big guy, and got a level 3 sprain to his ankle. When he reached out to catch himself, he promptly dislocated his elbow. (Which he reset himself, before driving to the ER. *OUCH!*)

            I watched a kid fall and impale his hand on a stick... that was pretty.. ahem "interesting" to say the least (and might I add messy)... Frankly im kinda suprised it didnt turn me off to the sport (it was my first time playing at the time)...

            My personal worsts are from football not paintball... My first carry as a highschool running back I went to stiffarm a guy and got my fingers caught in his facemask while getting hit by him from the one side and a guy from the other side sandwhiching me... Broke that finger good i did..

            My other from football would be when my tiny runningback "butt" (only weighed 155 my senior yr) had to block a 6ft 5in 250lb defensive lineman who happend to be blizting... I ended up just running as fast as I could and basically spearing (illegally diving headfirst into someone, kinda like a takle without arms) him, taking us both out... The worst part is that while i hobbled back to the huddle with my (as i discovered later) concussion, the coach called the same play again And I got all the fun and joy of spearing that clown AGAIN and knocking myself unconscious in the process...
            The sad thing is... if hadnt been taken out of the game, Id have gone and speared him a third time... (assuming I would have been able to find him... I was pretty out of it when I came too)
