Major League Paintball Held Hostage, Day 34

It is T minus 8. At 12:20 PM EST there are 92 teams paid and 155 teams registered including 7 pro teams. Virtually no change since yesterday.

In an encouraging gesture the PSP offered a one time lifting of the classification restrictions for two players from each of the former D1 teams moved to Semi-pro for '09. This means the teams could request that 2 players from their '08 rosters remain classed as D1 players. If, of course, those players then played Semi-pro their classifications would follow the classification and ranking rules for '09. What it amounted to was an option for a handful of players to more easily find places to play this season and in the future.

USPL has sent out sponsor/vendor packages in Bronze, Silver, Gold and Platinum options. Marquis prices (HB & season ending championship event) are in line with the PSP while regional event prices are halved.
