yet another question for Robbo

[Mikey D]

yesterday i was lucky enough ( ) to recieve a book called the complete guide to paintball for my 19th birthday.
now having had a browse through, and seeing the distinguished robbo himself, i had a thought.

would you ever write an autobiography about yourself?

with you having experienced so much in the game, and being player of the year 1996, could there be any other person who could teach so much? im sure im not the only person who would want to pick your brains as there would no doubt be many things that could improve my own, and many others game.

although im sure it would have some controversial points, it would give us less fortunate in the paintballing world the chance to see what really goes on behind the scenes.

so would you?

(i expect a cheque in the post of the ego inflating complements )

Hmmmmm...I'm not sure the world of paintball is ready for such a publication
I was asked a few years back to do a Paintball book and I did consider it but it would have just taken too much time and unless somebody stumps up about 50 grand up front, I can't really be bothered.

And anyway, if I had written it then, I couldn't have talked about Nexus and what an opportunity missed that would have been
But I'll do u a shortened version...just for you ....

Started NWC (Nam Wreckin Crew) in 87...won a few gongs..always second to the Preds tho

Started Shockwave..won a few more gongs

Joined All Americans...won a few really big gongs

Joined Aftershock...won a sh!t load of gongs including the biggest gongs of all

Formed Nexus in 2003 - One of my best achievements thus far, along with my greatest achievement of working for the best Paintball magazine in the World since 1990.

Made some great friends, made a few enemies but fcuk em !!!

Always gettin into trouble.

That's the story of my life

Mike, Mike, Mike.

Let's be honest here ALL autobiographies are written by people of interest, you are asking for Robbo to write one, see the problem?

In other words a book that is 10 pages long about how Pete won the WC with Aftershock is just plain boring!
