As to peeps in paintball who could conceivably make my paintball life difficult, they generally know exactly who I am. The larger point though is that it's the content that counts.Baca Locohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014510414015288907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-29642702649549886642010-03-05T22:10:32.951-05:002010-03-05T22:10:32.951-05:00Well done Mr. Baca, who ever you are.

I think the statement you made by wearing a mask over shadowed everything you said. Was the mask your idea or Ryan’s?<br /><br />I can not imagine you felt the need to hide your identityGary Baumhttp://www.paintballphotography.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-34551803256185725452010-03-05T14:01:02.214-05:002010-03-05T14:01:02.214-05:00Missy

Could a webcast also be an intermeidate step toward TV, too? Sure it could.<br /><br />When I mentioned getting away from the old ways I was primarily referring to the operating model that national level events have relied on--a pyramid with loweest level teams at the bottom generating the bulk of the money that allows the top to function. The move to the affiliates is a move away from that model.Baca Locohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13014510414015288907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-21536293476364860282010-03-04T23:14:30.725-05:002010-03-04T23:14:30.725-05:00I had a chance to watch a replay of the interview ...I had a chance to watch a replay of the interview tonight. I enjoyed it, but I have a question about something you said.<br /><br />You made the following statement, in regards to the PSP: "...they are cognoscente of the reality of our current situation and they have been making specific moves, for at least a couple years, that are aimed at getting away from reliance on the old way of doing things and the big dream..."<br /><br />Would you mind expanding on that? <br /><br />I certainly understand the current situation, and, as an old school player {35, with 14 years national experience] understand the old way...but I'm not sure what is being done to get away from it. By "the big dream," I'm assuming you mean television. If my assumption is correct, then that's where I'm confused. <br /><br />I thought the several hundred grand invested in the web-cast was yet another effort to try to make paintball a watchable, televised sport. Maybe I'm wrong...but that's where you come in.Hipponoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804718502406028481.post-85217554531783874112010-03-04T14:30:46.903-05:002010-03-04T14:30:46.903-05:00I thought you were amazing.
