Move to pro?

It's all about balls...

Tha circuit ain't that big so...

Promoters - Grow some balls, if you think a team's sandbagging, say 'you play in Div. X, or you don't play.

Teams - Grow some balls. You know where you should play, so play there. And if your team feels there's someone sandbagging in your division, talk to tha other teams. If they feel tha same, refuse to play tha baggers.

Women - Grow some balls. No, wait, I didn't mean that...

Welcome home, Maestro. Did the Euros treat you like the French treated Lance Armstrong? "Dop-ay, dop-ay"

As to this sandbaggin biz if promotors don't set out category rules and enforce them there is no such thing cus everybody enters every event the same way--you pay and you play.

Sadly, I did not fare quite as well as Sir Lance...especially after my partner mistook bike racing for base jumping and launched himself off of a 30ft cliff...

That said, Euro MTBers are pussies who couldn't ride a technical downhill if their lives depended on it!

Which, oddly, didn't really answer the question

Oh, stop your grousing and deal with the question, either the specific question posed or the larger question of whether or not sandbaggin exists in any reality other than in the minds of players cranked up by better players.

PS- "The rules stated that previous expirence was a factor" is a bit nebulous, isn't it?

Not really, I don't think so. I thought I had answered th question.

Ok, how about this.

YES, sandbagging (as in the practice of playing a lower division in order to make your performance seem better)happens in paintball, since there is no real standing system of ranking that will hold up from year to year.

Tyger, LMAO. That is the funniest post I've read in a month.
As there is no real standing system of ranking how can a team possibly play "outside their division?"

Congrats, you've found today's irony of the day.

Your reward is a swift kick to the rump, OR a flank steak. Your choice.

But I do appreciate the effort. What I want to know is where are all the other ballers on this issue? Seems like half the players are accused of doing it (sandbagging) and the other half are whining about it so there ought to be plenty of people to discuss the issue and yet . . .
Perhaps 26 and I have convinced them all of the errors in their thinking. (Tho 26 wasn't really much help )

I've only played in one local tournament, so sandbagging at large tournaments is irrelevant to me at the moment. As for everyone else, I don't know why they're not chiming in on this one.

Hey, I really don't have much to add to what I already said, plus, you post before I get home, so all my supplemental posts would basically be me quoting you and goin', "Yeah, what the buffoon [my hero, Baca Loco] said."

Yeah, and where the heck IS everyone?
