PBN and Hype combined makes me laugh

[ojhspyro89]

Well i was browsing pbn for some parts and i saw this.

http://www.pbnation.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=1030113

Its a jersey from some guy off HK (which i still dont understand) This guy wants a 100 bucks for a jersey. I dont get it its just a jersey isnt it? Its got someones name on it, who cares.

Its amazing how lame people get to have a jersey that has a name on it, especially for 100 bucks. There is like nothing special about it either, looks like a jersey to me.

Dont people just want to play these days without all the "agg"?

wheres the hype? All it is is a pro paintballers jersey that is being sold. I think 100 is too much, but some of the guys in the sport have fans ya know. I dont think you could buy one of tommy lasoya's real jerseys for the price of a new jersey. Customized jerseys are higher than you would think.

There is nothing wrong w/ being a fan of a certain pro team or a pro player. Its not hype, and it has nothing to do w/ PBN other than the jersey being sold there.

Look at the Barry bonds homerun ball. A person paid what millions for it? What's the difference?

[gortman44]

If you made it pro, wouldnt you like it if someone bought your jersey. I do agree, its a grip for a used jersey. But if someone likes someone that much than thats cool. Thats only going to bring this sport to the next level

Yup, having fans, autographs of pro's being worth something. It's all helping to evolve the sport to the next level. Maybe they'll save the goggles and the splat in an air take container that won some pro tewam the world cup and it'll be worth thousands in the year 2075, who knows.

HK isn't pro..

Most people know who Barry Bonds is? I'd say that's a big difference right there.

[MadPSIence]

There's a difference between let's say the Boston Red Sox and the HK Army.

I won't tell you what the Sox are but I'll tell you HK army is an amatuer team turned fad/clique/storefront for all of the hype kiddies and people that want to fit in.

Sorry but HK is like the popped-collar of paintball groups.

It doesn't matter if everyone likes barry bonds. Its that there is the one fan who would pay millions for the baseball. Just like that guy's jersey, there might be that one fan who would be willing to pay for it.

[MadPSIence]

most HK kiddies buy HK things just to fit in or be AGG. Whoever bought Bond's ball was probably a collector.. not someone trying to be hip in the big fad.

[ojhspyro89]

The pbn thing is jsut the peoples responses. It makes me kinda laugh being that a jersey is "SICK" and "hot" and all those things. Its just amazing what someone will say about a jersey that doesnt improve your balling any.


Im a if it works ill use it kinda guy. If it works good thats sweet too but anything with quadruple digits seems out of hand right now.

I think someone's jealous he doesn't have an HK headband.



I got a camo one too.

[MadPSIence]

actually I am jealous. I want one. I want to burn it and post pics on PBN to incite the largest internet riot ever.
