The problem is...

....that very few ppl are able to keep integrity and character when they are subjected to direct massive cash streams.


its all about the bling bling


You gotta be filthy rich or you gotta be a rock solid character to be able to pull it off.

I think the best would be to finally admit how sorry is the state of the tourny scene in the US then make steps to resolve it players manufacturers you name it.

And THEN go and think about TV and Mass Media, get it right first then get it on TV. Imagine what would happened if the World Cup was picked up by TV and they televised the "Salm Incident" live?

The thing I love about the Milleneum series that it has strict rules how a tourny should be run. If you're able to meet the rules then you're in if you dont then sayonara.


Peace

that's pretty severe

And don't half of them work at Adrenalin? Mutiny in the air. Why cut nine players from a team that is missing the finals by one point? they've obviously been doing something right. Maybe it was a mistyping

Or maybe Mr. Graley has bigger plans and an AM team that can't quite make finals just won't cut it, hmmm?

I just wanna say, 2003 is my 16th year in pb and it has been the all time craziest off-season ever. We have moved from major league nxl (Detriot) to 7 man pro to 7 man am to 10 man semi-pro to minor league nxl all in the course of about 1 month. I've gone back and forth from 12 to 3 gz guys wanting on, but after a Great GZ practice and tryout this week it looks like most of the stars are sticking to NYC.

Two of my teammates for 16 years (2 of the 4 of the original adrenalin guys) are thinking of retiring, just as the sport is getting mainstream attention.

And this week some of the craziest proposistions ever has occurred and I'm stongly considering it.

That being said, I know Adrenalin is playing PSP of some sort, I know that at least 5 are cut, I know that at least 1 of my best friends and 16 year teammates is retiring, I know I just bought out all of my partners and now own 95% of Adrenalin.

I know I graduate from one of the top-tier US Law Schools in the country in 5 months and I dont know what route to take in my career. I'm leaning towards runnign adrenalin, playing NXL and being a superagent (with Robbo being the most-tatooed client).


As a side note, Adrenalin 2 (who did well at the cup), cut 10 players and have picked up some real ballers.

PB2X had us pegged I guess in this months issue of on the edge.

Peace,
James

Yeah James I know you guys made the cut at WC and won a semi finals game to boot, just giving you a little grief. Bald Chris is magic. Hope you didn't cut him too. That James has a sickle. Watch out or you might get cut.

They missed the finals cut by a game Mr Big, not a point.

Baca Loco - the smack isn't in my corner. If I wanted to be Internet famous I'd post like college Chris using my real name in some vain and pathetic way trying to make a name for myself with no true playing accomplishments. I know how I come accross online and I'd rather not hear about it from sponsors or team mates later. And no Dave, I don't have a sticker for my license. Shtooping your mom hardly qualifies as abusing yong children. It just means I have poor taste in women.
