Correction: The quality of play in NPPL drops dramatically.
correct, since that was what i was reffering to and cannot comment on the PSP/NXL
Teams Rage can beat.
so these teams that suck in the US and cant beat anyone else in their country can afford to come to europe :confused: ? while i know other higher ranked yank teams dont come over as a team because of the cost hence why individual players look for teams.
also if they suck so bad i doubt they can find sponsors that will support them or have faith in their "euro trip"

It amazes me how some people love to bring into question the superiority of Yank players and teams; firstly, if you subscribe to the idea our teams and players are on a par, or close to the Americans, then it is an argument borne out of ignorance or agenda because whether we like it or not, Yank players and teams are sooooo much better than us Euros (except Joy and RL).

It also seems amazing to me just how many people get involved in this debate and have no practical knowledge of the American leagues.
It's no good telling everybody you think us Euros are on a par (or even getting close to) when you haven't even been to the US; it's a ludicrous assertion if your experience is limited to just witnessing Euro events and just a few, if any, Yank tournaments.

I have mixed feelings re the Yank superiority, I have been living with it for 20 fakkin years but at the very least, it does provide a benchmark for us to aim at, and so in that sense, it can be a positive thing.
But, all the time we have these locked leagues over here, and the widespread assimilation of Yank players in Euro teams, we will never be able to create the necessary environment for attempting European parity with our American cousins.

In other words, we've only ourselves to blame .....

Why does the MS interest the yank teams ? what does it have that they dont have back in the US ? In this time of economic crissis and struggle how is the added cost of transatlantic travel a viable option ?

In times of economic crisis, It may not interest the Yank teams as indvidials to come over especially if they are paying part or all of the bill.

BUT I would have thought their sponsors what have an interest in them coming to Europe as that is why they sponsor them. :)

"To be the best, Dynasty shoots the best. In 2008, the team began
incorporating the all new Luxe Paintball Marker into its equipment
lineup. Never before has a brand new marker moved so quickly into the
winner's circle in the hands of true professionals. Pleased with its
performance on and off the field, Dynasty has chosen to shoot the Luxe
exclusively through the 2009 season where they will compete in the PSP
and Millennium Series tournaments."
