You've just called him a cheat and posted it on a board where thousands are watching. How do you justify that?
Rancid, you're always trying to piss people off & stir up controversy, so i'm not sure if you're on the wind-up here or not. However, if you are correct in what you say and LaSoya was told to wipe' then you're right, i can't justify calling him a cheat and i publicly apologise 'in front of thousands' Maybe i was mistaken. However, from my viewpoint on the walkway, directly behind LaSoya, i looked immediately at the Ref who was to LaSoya's left and slightly in front, to see if he saw the hit. To me it appeared that he didn't. I didn't see the ref telling him to wipe it. I saw the ref run towards LaSoya and seconds later eliminate him. It also doesn't explain him talking to live players once eliminated, or taking a roundabout route off the field. IMO i think that high profile players should be setting a good example and promoting the sport in a positive manner. Comments such as 'Now that was a f***ing ass-kicking' (another LaSoya-ism, on field 3 at the end of another game) don't exactly promote paintball to joe public in good light. Don't get me wrong, i have nothing against LaSoya. I admire his skill, i briefly passed the time of day with him on Friday. I will continue to watch him play, not to find fault but to awe at his moves. I just abhor cheating.
