Absolutely!

Joy is an exception, because Magued has managed to collect a bunch of players with a distinctly "american" mindset.

Further, they are setting a precedence in Sweden, which means we will see more Swedish teams become succesfull in the future.

the attitude thing is right on the buzzer....!

i came back from the states with an american amplified attitude of shoutin in the other teams faces, creating a chant that unites the team, and overall a bigger hunger to win .


but every baller in england exept from my friends looked down on me they thouhgt i was stupid shoutin"shoot em up ,jus shoot em up" every where i went i even tryed to get the team to warm up and stretch with me but they just laughed..now i just do it on my own or with who ever wants to join in the only players that liked it were the kids and age groups alike

..but the best thing was that big name players hated it and they wanted to bonus ball me for it!!!! but i didnt care i knew the job was done i was inside there heads i was some one they had to think about at the start gate!!!!!

and for all that ...my team hated me!!!!!!

they told me to shut up ..and just play!!!!!!....and that right there was it ...they just wanted to play they didnt want to win!!!

so to sum up ...im basicly sayin there isnt enough team spirit not enough drive in induvidual players ....no leaders........no induvidual people pushing the game forward ...the only person i know and respect is chris stone...he puts his heart into everythin and i truely admire him for it........and one day id like to be as good as him

So if we put it down to mentality, until europeans change then european paintball will be stuck where it is.
Not at all - again - you guys should all take note of Joy Division.

5 years ago they sucked (well ok - that is a relative term - but in terms of Pro paintball they sucked ;)) - and look where they are now!

They do not let "culture" stand in their way - and neither should you.

If you teammates don't like it - fcuk them - find some that do

I am still in cali so i will give you my thought's on what went on and what is goin on when i get back.

But to be honest no one has even come close to getting it right yet.


you can all jump on the same band wagon but untill you play out there i think you should pipe down.
