Jeez unless they hurt someone sounds like some shite I did while on campus. Relax

Ahhh those lovable rapscallions. Shooting innocent passersby with paintball guns. Just like the good ole days.

You weren't shooting any random people on campus with paintballs unless you were monumentally stupid or had some weird fetish about getting chased down and your arse beat.

SG_Geaux•82 months

Give em the boot.

Wtf?

arkytiger23•82 months

Paintballs? Move along they'll be fine! Kiir needs to slow his roll

tigerpawl•82 months

Paintballs hurt. They knew that in advance. There's a dark element at play here. Easy to just dismiss it sitting behind a keyboard. They pop you with one when you get up, you'll have a different opinion. Whatever happened to water balloons?

Snuffleupagus•82 months

Get hit in the eye with one and see how it feels.

You ever been shot with a paintball? That shite hurts like a mofo

ChewyDante•82 months

You can easily lose an eye to a paintball. They are made to be fired at people wearing a protective mask.

The problem isn't huge, but needs to be treated seriously by Coach Wade now to ensure the future of the program. I know these are just kids having fun, but paintball guns look like real guns and sting like a mofo, as mentioned above. With all the senseless violence in the world today, people are already on edge. Just no reason to do things like this when you're in the spotlight. I don't think the players had any malicious intent, and should learn from this. I trust Coach Wade will handle this appropriately and move forward. Geaux Tigers!

JumpingTheShark•82 months

Well put.

TigerSpray•82 months

were the targets the opposite race? hate crime? just sayin'

TooFyeToFly•82 months

What the hell is wrong with you?

RightWingTiger•82 months

Hes actually spot on with his comment. You really believe that if it were white kids shooting at black guys/girls it wouldnt be labled a racist hate crime immediately? What country have you been living in the past 10 years?

KennabraTiger•82 months

Will Wade has lost control of the basketball team

lsucoonass•82 months

Hope coach wade take the most appropriate action; whatever it will be this will set the standard for our basketball players conduct on and off the court. This is pretty serious considering they could potentially face assault/battery charges

You're a moron

MaHittaMaHitta•82 months

I can see Coach Wade sitting in his office ready to unload some paintballs on them when they walk in for their meeting lol

Lexman1•82 months

That's actually a good idea Mahitta! That would be a good learning experience for them. But, he would be fired and sued, and labeled a racist and war criminal and whatever else they come up with these days! I think Coach Wade will handle this the right way.

It isn't a new season till someone gets arrested!
