Paintball on TV is about as exciting as PBS.

Hey, PBS has some interesting stuff on it. I remember watching Nova or something about String Theory. It was pretty deep.

Its seems that PSP collaborated XBall rules with theirs. Before I believe it used be basic NPPL structure with 15bps ramping, now it seems diffrent. The announcers suck because they have to make the sport easy to follow for new viewers, so they use terms that they would probably undertand. You can't just go "And JT runs down and bunkers the guy in the snake, but is seems that he bonused him. That's a one-for-one" and expect the newer viewer to understand.

The first one used Nppl rules which mean's no ramping and 7 people on the field.

This tournament is NXL rules which is x-ball with 15 bps with full auto and 5 people.

That is what I though, but then the field was a basic PSP field and it didn't seem like they were using NXL ramping, just PSP ramping. I dunno, I guess how NXL has the penalty box and stuff makes it mmore fun to watch.
