TechPB Forum: poorballer1 - Viewing Profile - TechPB Forum

My name is Sam.I USED TO BE EMPLOYED as a firefighter as well as a graduate of the US Marine Corps Young Marine Program.
My life in paintball all began at Arlington Race Track in Arlington Heights Illinois. Cpx Sports(Living Legends and NPPL Chicago)was giving away a free birthday party if you could guess the number of business cards in a jar. My uncle told me to guess like 576 or something and i won. After playing with my friend Dylan, i was HOOKED!
That was 6 years ago, these have been an incredible 6 years and I have made some of my best friends though this amazing sport. I have played everything from rec-ball games in the woods of CPX and Badlandz, to D2 tournament games with my former team that myself and my best friends and basically big brothers Craig, JR, Arian, and Fat Philly formed, Chicago Bad Boys. We poured everything into the team. Practiced every weekend, and kept the team small. We were the kind of guys who youd see at the field who would always help out a new player or let some kid who was there with his friends shoot our gun or use our loader. We weren't the type who would brag about our exploits, rather we would let our actions on the field allow people to draw their own conclusions about us. Not everyone liked us and that was fine, but they all knew that we played fair, and played harder than everyone else. None of us were in it for the free stuff from sponsors, in fact we had none. CBB was entirely funded by ourselves. We broke up after PSP Chicago due to a inability to commit the time any longer. I am currently presueing a venture with PBFez and Chipballer623, but the experiences i had with CBB have been forever embrazed on my memory. The heart and drive was just amazing.
I just love the game and it has given me some amazing experiances. Mike, Kitty, Ced, and the rest of the TechPB community, you guys are just amazing. Living Legends, there are no words to describe the generosity and comradere between a bunch of people who i have only know for 10 minutes. The way you guys work on the field really shows your commitment to the game. I am forever greatful to Mike in particular, who, during a particularly intense firefight, yelled TechPB to the front and charged the enemy tank advancing down the road with minimal back-up from anyone else. I ran up to him and said" im here as long as you are man" . When he said in the forum that he would lead from the front, he ment it.

Oh and i love having haters

Im 100% Italian and a gwedio at heart, and to be perfectly honest if you don't have haters your doing something wrong

For those of you who'll have the pleasure of meeting me at LL4 you'll see that, yes I do live up to the Jersey Shore Gwedio stereotype, in fact I make it my mission to do so. I HAVE A TANNING BED IN MY HOUSE! Thats how dedicated I am to being Fresh to Death.
My Kicks are always fresh, always got fresh gear on, ALWAYS got a fresh haircut, well then you got a Situation on your hands.

I get by with a little help from my friends
