I know its early but what are you guys looking at? This will probably be my last chance to ball before school starts and I would love to take full advantage of it. Count me in if you guys need a person.

I cant promise a weekend getaway but I can sure do the event. I need to watch my finances from here on out for a while.

Looks like the battle for series champs is between you and the guys that call themselves True Ballers yet dont sport their jerseys........ :wacko: (im asking for it I know)

Let me know whats up!


D~

Im in for sure, we might even be able to run two crews.

D~ You are more then welcome to come down and ball with us. I am going to try to get the time off but I am not sure if it will happen. Darn new job position!!!

what up guys been out of radar for a while trying to buy a house and what not. Just wanted to know if there is any room for one more :bang:? Just checking with yall since its been so long since i balled (of)

Job=Thankful......

Do you guys have room for one more? i might have to blow the dust off my gun....lol....

Just to let ya'll know I put in for the days off for the Aug. and Sep pride events. As of right now I am working on the one in Aug but I am hoping to get that changed.

Shoot that reminds me, Hey sean PM me you address and Ill get that super bolt sent with it. Question though, Do you want a matching Proto back with it, I think its a 14in. Let me know bro.

e are gonna try to roll with two crews, so if your in, we will find you a spot. rudy wants to go too, and if ken can go, and i have one more in mind...

VIC that would be AWSOME! thanks for the help man....I'll pm you my address...


as for the Aug 16 i'm A GO! lets do this...I'll bring some Blue Moon in the hidden beer compartment of my truck! :ph43r: :ph43r: :ph43r:

JEFF you bring the Oranges, fruit tray and little plastic swords! It is so that we can Bedazle our beer!!!!! slobber slobber slobber

If anyone was wondering why he is the unicorn, the fruit is the reason... and now you know.


cool sig sean!

dig the sig!

so it looks like i might need a new sig to keep up with all these fanciful new sigs everyone has...

so far it looks like:

3EV Black- BZip, UDog, D~ (and maybe a charging rhinoceros)
3EV Pink/whatever: Pinto (Rudi), The Unicorn (sean), and El Chingon (Alberto)

anybody else who can ball please speak up soon so we can organize this asap.


also stay tuned for information regarding the OSC's

we need to get that going asap as well

I did the honors of hookin up your sig, jeff. All you have to do is insert it in there.

It took some strings getting pulled ok more like I ripped them out, but I got Aug 16th and Sep. 13 off. So I will be at the last 2 pride events.

if you have some extra players, bring them down. I can always play pump on a squad if you need an extra. See you all sunday.

mark

so do you think i can get back to dickson by 4 to work? :huh:

^_^

I doubt it. The event hasnt been ending till around the 6pm mark or even later. I have a hard time making it back to St. Louis. Last time, I had to take a power nap at UD's before heading home. We left around 2:45am and got home at 7.......lol.

The event is always worth it though........good times.........good people.........PAINTBALL!


D~

i may have to at least come and take pictures/videos and then leave so i can go to work.

jolt, come with your gear. We can always put an extra on your roster in case you need to leave early. We have plenty extra good ballers if you need a late day fill in.

thanks,

mark

smash some peoples heads tomorrow 3ev

Good luck.......... B) :ph43r: :bang:

Guys I just wanted to let ya'll know I believe I had more fun today winning 2nd place then I did the last pride event winning 1st. Don't get me wrong I still wish we had got 1st this time around, but it just wasn't meant to be.

These Pride events have been the funnest tournaments I have ever played!!! KP, Actionpaintball thank you so much for putting these tournaments together. I wish it didn't have to end next month.

same here with the fun! had a blast, thought assassin8 was gonna kill kp. heh. hope all the tournaments end up as fun, or funner. cannot wait for the rest of the crew to be here!

:angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:
my job has never pissed me off more than it did today. i had been talking to my manager all week trying to get off Sunday and today as i was cleaning off the desk i found a change of schedule she had made (because of someone quitting not because i kept asking her but that’s not the point) and i had Sunday off!!! (fp) but no one decided to tell me Friday (the last day I was at work ) or even after i had been at work for an hours. But that’s not the worse part. The worse part is they made everyone leave 3 hours early so not only did I not get to play paintball I only got 2 hours of work and it ruined my whole day. I’m going to kill someone!!!!! :bang:



i don't wanna hear how much fun it was! lol

glad you guys had fun :D
i was planning on at least showing up but i didn't see the point in driving 4 or more hours to hang out for 2 <_< but now i'm really kicking my self.

Great day of paintball and thank you all for the support. We have one more official PRIDE event but will do events after the season end if the interest is there. Again, thanks and I will be working on updating the Pride site with all the new event data and pics soon.

Mark

Jolt, sorry to hear dude, i hate when work messes things up like that. see if you can get the 13th off next month. thats a whole month notice. thats the next pride deal. hope you can make it to that, missed you there yesterday.

Thanks for having me again guys!

JB.

What can I say fellas. Nothing better than ballin with the coolest crew EVER! You guys rock! Thanks for letting me do my thing and ball with you guys!

UD: you and fatin are too much. im sure i speak for everyone when i say that i really appreciate your kindness and love. food, drinks, preperation, sleeping quarters..........WOW! you guys go too far out of your way for everyone. Thanks :)

BZ: each and everytime im down, i can always expect to see you and Ginger and it be a blast no matter whats goin down. i love playing along side you man. keep up the mad skillz bro!

LAZ: its never a dull moment when your around. everyone has mad respect for you and you deserve it. an all around great guy with nothin but passion for the game. i know when i get shot out, you can seal the deal.......keep it up! better be ready for the last pride........there will be no sub........its all on you bro! :bang: KILL!

Unicorn/-1/Sean: LMAO! your too funny. glad to see you back and on the field. like i said, relax on the field and in tough situations and your golden man. stand your ground and play your game. you will come out on top! just for reference, next time your at UD's watch my 3 on 1 video. i play calm......take my time.......and end up with the win. youve just got to know how to hold the other guys at bay and work on your main threat first. lookin forward to seeing more of you. stay safe!

Rudi: is your arse ok? :lol: you took that slip and got right up, gathered your hopper, and kept playin.........AWESOME! youve got game man.......dont stray away! your little girl behaved so well..........you did something right :P

Alberto: way to ball. you rocked that snake side. nice seeing you again and look forward to ballin again with you.

JB: so glad you could make it. you played very solid all day. cant wait till OSC St. Louis! yeah........you know whats gonna happen!


D~

Cool squiggs... This is what I love about the game. You keep everything that we (3EV) fight to keep as the main focus of the sport, your main focus----FUN----- You are the exact type of player that 3EV molds itself around. Great player, honest baller, good friend.

3EV plays for the love of the game, good friends, and clean compitition. Win, lose, or cheated against we hold our head high and congradulate the other team. I can not emphasis enough how important it is to keep "having a good time" the primary objective of any day of rec ball, or a national level tournament.

Third Eye Vision has been the best thing that has happened to paintball for me. I'm pretty sure I would not be playing today had I not played a few pick up games with the original crew a few years ago.


I cant think of any more corny $h1t to say :wink:



Team Event #1 #2 #3 #4 #5 #6 total

3EV BLACK 12 9 12 12 11 56


:bang: :bang: :bang:
Awsome guys... congradulations

Terd: im just doing my part to help look after your boys while you are away. i keep hearing that you are the main man behind keeping things fun. Terd this......Terd that..... :lol: everyone misses you man! i like what 3EV represents. i love the attitudes and passion you all have for this game. its different ballin with you fellas but different in a good way. dont think ive had my head down ever while wearing some sort of 3EV attire.......plain.........simple.........fun!

stay safe man! looking forward to seeing you soon!


D~

Terd fell asleep trying to eat a chicken finger.....

HEH, i was gonna say something along the same thing! but at least he woke up with only a chicken finger on him, not the hotel room.

I don't know about deserving it. I just go out there and try not to mess up. ;)

Oh there still may be some subbing going on, Terd will be back by then, and he may be a little rusty after playing in the sand box. :ph43r:

Your going to be messed during that last pride man. Like Terd said you are what members of 3EV strive to be.

Yup, I hate to get shot too. ;)

D~'s while we all know you are the rogue ninja right now, you are part of the family. You were part of the family before you even balled with us. You drove an hour to and from the hotel the night we came up to the clinic, and that sealed the deal. While your game is probably the tightest i've ever seen, it's you that we dig. Keeping being you and you've always got a spot at my crib!

BZip-Once again you've solidified your place as a hella baller, you don't know how important of a gap you filled when vic was sent to tattoine. You made a decision to play the snake that has made us as dangerous as we can be, you stepped up before asked and we won't forget it. Just be easy on VIC when he comes back. :D

Laz- you never cease to amaze me bro. There's never been a question in my mind, you don't come to

you play to win. you can't fool me :) whatching you ball is watching the evolution of a great player. I think this tourny i saw your hand on the pump-handle more than it was off of it :bang:

PINK-

what can i say fellas, ya'll balled with some serious heart and it showed! you played against the best that the the pride has to offer and effed $hit up! I don't care about placing or postioning, you guys rocked! a bit more gel and you guys will be a sealed deal ruff tuff group.

Unicorn-keep doing what you do and you will continue to improve, you've got strong fundamentals and with a bit of shaping and a touch more experience, you're going to put me out of job! ;) psyche! ya'll can't get ridof me that quick! :)

Rudi- lookin sharp in his new pants! probably some the best pants to match the jersey! You've got skills and a great daughter, i know she was probably hot as heck, but she's a trooper and welcome anytime! you're also one heck of a father!

Alberto- you displayed some hardcore skillz out there! your 3on1 against the spartans sounded awesome, wished i could've seen it. but it sounds like you kept your head and rocked it out.

JB-As always, its a pleasure seeing you. it'd been a long time and i look forward to seeing you in STL. I'm soooooooooo sorry i got yours and JR's jersey mixed up and forgot the headwrap. nonetheless u will have them before DC!

Terd- your are the "minister of fun" for sure, we won't ever step out of line as long as you ball with us. can't wait to have some fun when you get back. trust me there will be plenty of heads to chop once you get back!

VIC- "Ambassador of fun and all things crazy" if you had a nickel for everytime we mentioned something with your name involved you'd be a rich man. we look forward to you getting back something quick brotha! As a matter of fact our call for time running low was named after you...mojitos is good. B) saved our a$$ in the only game that it was going to time too. :ph43r: :bang:

Also to the teams playing in the pride- it's been a battle all year and i look forward to seeing how it plays out.

TB-u guys have held it down throughout the series and deserve mad props for your consistency in the events. You guys have been worthy opponents and always keep us on our toes, see ya'll in sept.

to the people making it happen:

KP, Marc and Rod from Apball, and the staff at YJP. you guys are absolutely amazing. you've given us a series that has been nail-bitingly exciting. You do not know how much it means to all the ballers in the area that you guys are doing this. 4yrs ago i would have never dreamed this would be happening. Thanks for giving us an avenue for pumpers in the area to step into the arena!
