bit bored today, not playing PB today and gf is away so was watching jake 2.0 on sky.

they went balling and as in most pb on tv there wad no sense of safety - goggles being lifted up, no barrel socks etc.

best/worst bit was the guy with an angel that had been converted to a gun :D

Yeah I know...but it isn't to them...that's how they think it is

that's what my mates think I do; wannabe soldies and that, yeuch.

That bit on that film with SJP was prob the best i've seen of ball on the TV


My grandad is actually interested in what I do & he watched some of the PA on Sky & said it was sooo boring. We need to make it more accessible...

yeah i saw that episode.. (avoiding revision)
anyways its unrealistic and the thing that makes it funny is because of that unrealism.

It's true of any sport/hobby or activity. If you see it on TV it's nothing like the real thing and you end up irritated.
Skydivers and surfers probably complained about point break and drop zone.
Look at the portrayal of Paintball in failure to launch...... it's totally unrealistic, no swearing, cheating, screaming matches or complaining. Absolute drivel.

And I've never, ever seen a player or marshal with goggles off in a game area.:rolleyes:
