Apparently we was talkin' issue 202 and I didn't get the memo. Oops!
Anyway, mighty good issue all the way around. Cover feature by Brandon Showers was another face of Pball but perhaps less Edge focused than I was expecting. But that only leaves room for a follow up sometime as it remains, I think, a worthwhile topic to explore and, dare I say, cutting edge.
And just in case anyone thinks from my earlier comment in this thread that Doc isn't serious, he is, but he's also realistic. He does drug test and will continue to do so, sometimes with notice sometimes without. He knows he can't control the lives of his players 24/7 but what he wants is for paintball and the team and its success to be a clear alternative. The point isn't to hold a gun (or marker
) to the players' heads in order to threaten their opportunity to play and compete--it's to make sure they can see for themselves that their successes and the team's success comes from their dedication, hard work, commitment and responsibility.
