You mean more than a "mocary" than synchronized swimming and synchronized swimming? (not to mention corruption and incompetence) I don't know how much more of a mocary it could become... :)

I don't think paintball would make a mockery of the olympics, well it owuld if it weer to enter right now, but if it enterd when its beed wayyyy more developed i think it would be awesome. I would love to see paintball in the olympics. But it6 would never happen for a longggggggggg time. A very long time. ------------- Proud owner of an ACE'd 2K3 matrix  |

it will never ever ever happen. Read my responses in the original
thread. Nobody wants a bunch of gun throwing babies in the Olympics.

Paintball could and IMO should be an olympic sport BUT When you go to think about it though the Olympics are about countries coming together and playing the same sport. The problem is that other then the USA and Canada paintball isn't popular all over the world like it is here in the US. There are no where near as many paintballers in Europe and Asia as thier is in the US. The only countries that would play paintball in the Olympics is the US, Canada and Russia (Russian Legions). -------------

England yes but I don't know about those other countries. Even if those countries did play thats still not really enough countries to make it an Olymipic sport. -------------
