PSP reacts to events at Texas open

[geekwarrior]

If i pay to play in a series and i pay for my hotel room then whatever i wanna break should be my buisness and i will have to suffer the consequences given by the hotel...but im not going to be kicked out of a series i payed to play in and have commited no infraction in...see what im saying...i just don't see why PSP got involved other then to make them look better so they could salvage their deal with Marriot...

that seems like a contradiction...you said the players had nothing to do with psp while at the hotel, they were on their own time, yet you noted that psp was losing out on a deal because of the players actions...hmmm......

You gotta love the fact that Todd Martinez is getting suspended for a year, though. Remember, he is supposed to be one of the primary ambassadors or the sport.

What a joke.

when was he ever remotely close to being a paintball ambassador? He is the biggest flunky on dynasty.

I am glad they are handing down fines, suspenions, and rules changes. I have seen a ton of immature behavior myself but nothing was ever done about it. They get what they deserve. But everyone try to focus on the bad issues, ok? That way the other %90 of the teams with common sense go un-noticed.

I assume that much, if it wasnt for that they may have just let them be...so i dont know..my point is i dont see why they are being punished by psp when they did not commit any punishable offense within a psp event...but instead on their own time in a hotel room they paid for...honestly its not anyones buisness, but the players and hotel, what they do in the room...I dont know doesnt much matter because its not my problem..

When ones actions reflect negatively on a group of other people, those people are going to take action to stop it if they are able. Do something entirely on your own time and have it reflect negatively on your employer. If it's bad enough you wont be working there much longer...

An example. You are on a business trip and stay in a hotel. You trash the hotel room in the same manner as the teams did at the PSP event. The hotel calls the client you were working for and tells them that because of your actions the client will no longer get special pricing, nor will they be allowed to stay at the hotel. How long do you think you will work for your company?
