Hold on a bleedin second, you've spoilt the debate. Everyone, ignore Robbo's post for a couple of days, and then we'll come back and see who was right.
Teams in the NXl rely on their coaching from the sidelines, which over the years will have a big disadvantage for them if they were to play without a sideline coach.
Many of yesterday's pros are still today's pros.
If you were to ask Lang if he is better today than he was four years ago on the Men, I think you would get a definite answer. Then again, if you were to throw the Russian Legion into 1996, I think you would again get a definite answer.
I'm interested in reading what Robbo wrote, when will it be available again for public consumption?

In my opinion the old Pro's partied harder
Taking the UK Preds for an example, how many times did they destroy hotel rooms, throw tvs out the window, do certain activities I can't even mention? They go down in my book 'The History of Paintball' as the best in Europe and the best paintball rockstars of the nineties - stuff of legend!

The crickets incident was the funniest ever.
It is nice to reminisce about teams etc of the past , but times move on.
I think the question should be " do you think that we in the UK are better or worse than teams in the past from the UK". I think that may make deciding a little easier.
if you want mho
In the UK
Who trains most weekends
Who is prepared to travel
Who has an internationaly known name as Captain/coach
Which teams sponsorship portfolio is the best in the country
Whose team do you see with very little if not any transfer outs of players
Which team has adapted to change within the concept of the game
Which team has a paintball store behind them
Which team are spearheading this countrys game
Come on, I know youre thinking Nexus
Well the same scenario could have been said for the Preds. The thing is, it is all relative.
EA games may be able to sort this one out for us by producing a game
