... Or at least the rights to air it on TV. Has anyone heard anything more
about this? If it's just a false rumor than man they have a ton of websites
and players fooled. I'm hearing stuff about it being on the air as a true
honest to god television program by the end of next year.

Sounds like some people here are about to eat their words.

He's still alive? He must want to make sure he goes out with no
inheritance for the back stabbing relatives.

I think if you do a search, you will find I was first to say this would
happen a year ago.

For paintball to make it onto TV they need someone who can pull some weight
at TV networks. Dick Clark can do that. Whether he actually likes the sport
or not is irrelevant. He just thinks it can make money.

If true, then the current owners better kiss it goodbye, Clark will own the
whole thing within 18 months and probably their cars, homes, dogs and cats
and the fillings in their teeth as well. He's a shark, a friend of mine was
in a band signed to Clark's management company, they found out the hard way
to be very, very careful what you sign if Clark's lawyers even touched the
piece of paper first.

Doug you don't come in here as much as you used to. I think with your
knowledge about paintball a lot of the new players here would like to hear
from you.

Tony please...it's Grand Parents who still admire Dick Clark. Parents
have long since tired of him.

Ever wonder why he only makes a large appearance once a year now?

Christ...too bad a few years ago Monty Hall didn't pick up on
paintball.
