Nations Cup at Toulouse ? (Laurent & Pedro)

[Robbo]

Bloody Hell Nick !!!, that sounds like a good idea !!!!!!
I might even play in it myself if it were to be held in Toulouse, after all, I could get a chance to pop u and Mustapha Magued in one day......Ahhhhhh....life just couldn't get any better

i agree

i strongly agree for a nations cup in toulouse, but laurent is the man for toulouse.
and i can´t do nothing if he doesn´t want.

but for portugal it is for sure.

the captain is the the captain of the highest rank team of each country of the millennium series that choose the players amongst the teams that are present in the tournament. all players must have the nationality from the country that they want to play.

Nick

Hmmmmm............. thinking........still thinking............I don't think Laurent wil be all that sympathetic to any idea I might give him after the 'No 'Look Rule' debacle, so I think the idea may well have to come from you.
And I don't feel too easy about you being my advocate to Laurent so I will renounce all claim to 'appearing' in the Nations Cup thus allowing the other nations a chance to win.
See Nick !!! I'm just all heart

Hey Paddeo, you are correct it is an aside to the main tournament traditionally held at the Portuguese event in Lisbon.
It only menas something if we win it, if say someone like the Swedes win it (like last year) then it means absolutely nothing !!!
You get the picture !!!!

- oh well.... maybe you'll join me in the stands for a few beers then, while we tell eachother tales of back when tactics meant nothing in this sport ?

Nick

Well I'll buy the drinks and you can talk about the relevance of tactics in contemporary paintball, that should take us up to my first mouthful, after that...we can talk about techniques which fills up the rest of the day
Laters Duuuuuuude

Pete,

I have no doubt you could talk all day about techniques (and probably would) but what is Nick going to talk about? Although getting Nick to talk has never been the problem - getting him to stop, now theres the trick!!

Well, as I said, Nick was going to talk about the relevance of tactics in modern day paintball (of which there isn't any, in any real sense unless you are Russian) but I think the real problem is not getting him to stop, which sometimes I agree is nearly impossible, but it's for him to make some sort of sense.
Ahh, 'herein lies the rub' as Willy 'Boy' Shakespeare once said
