Stopped watching last year, so I'm not sure if these guys are any good. If not, 3 additional scholly's for some 5 star recruits :) That's how I see it.

You write off entire teams because of the actions of a few individuals? Sure issues arise, some more serious than others, but to cast such a wide net referring to "all these trouble makers" is just incredibly short sided

Fitting for 5 and 6 year olds who haven't learned that this is inappropriate behavior. If you're in college and haven't figured this out, you're a special kind of stupid.

When did we allow 12 year olds to be on campus?

I guarantee that if a video surfaced of 3 young black guys doing drive-by shootings with a paintball gun on innocent unsuspecting people that people would be irate, wanting arrests, etc. The only reason why people aren't saying that now is because they're LSU players.

We used to take super soakers at the wee hours of the morning and yell run before blasting people with em cold or hot mornings. Some people would laugh some would be pissed but never hurt anyone. Keep it simple kids.

like the new softer bb's, paintballs do sting but come on already. Up and down my block, kids play with both all the time. 18 years old, possibly after a few beers with a paintball gun, poor judgement but this is no big deal...

At least we can talk about something else and take our minds off of the 0-2 CWS final.
