Its a small world after all.

I have seen alot of good working relationships go down the crapper because one party will bad mouth the other and it gets back to the first party. I steer clear of these political snafu's that people get themselves into. Unless it involves a teamate or myself I steer clear. I am very much a people person and get along with almost everyone. So I try not to upset anyone I am out there to have fun first and foremost. I try to make sure those near me are having the time of their lives playing paintball. I admit it talk trash I talk trash alot I like it it gets everyone riled up and play harder.
I do not talk bad about promoters or field owners. Only once have I felt the need for it. And that was a field that was gonna get someone hurt badly. For the most part I cannot say I have played a bad game or on a bad field. I realized long ago that fields are closing at a alarming rate and that promoters remeber those that talk trash. It is not a good thing to be remembered for.
I had this one Promoter who I was helping at a event who was to put it mildly in a war of words with some friends of mine. I just told him it was none of my business but that I was friends with the other parties. I told him I wasn't there for his sake but for the sake of the event.
This is something many in our sport have forgotten. Do not burn your bridges you may just need them later.
