Last night at Slabtown OOO member Paul seemed to be indicating that he is heading toward cutting off his loyalties from OOO and maybe making a break on his own*. Since he and Rhodes are pretty much the only active members (or maybe there are more, but they don't have t-shirts, and their games don't make them stand out as anything more than off-the-street weekend warriors), could this mean that they're on the verge of falling apart?! OOO: respond!
*Paul recounted to me that he and he alone went further at Shorty's than any CFF member - an indisputable fact, to which I could only respond with a nod (I mean, what did he want me to say? That, my god, he's a pinball god? keep dreaming). I then pointed out that at the CFF vs OOO brawl, we trounced them (since I guessed that he was attempting, in his own sad manner, to do some sort of "OOO is better than CFF" shit talking). He quickly shot back that that didn't matter, since he personally did well at the brawl. I found this response interesting. He couldn't and wouldn't defend or stand up for his crew. He only stood up for himself, which lead me to conclude that his loyalties were not with his crew, but only with himself. I mean, he compared himself with our entire crew at Shorty's, and then himself with our entire crew at the brawl, and then the moment I brought up his teammates, he disregarded them. But I think I was bringing up a legit comparison - crew vs crew. So, can anyone clarify, is OOO such a loosely-connected crew - basically just a bunch of random people who for some mostly unknown reason have the same initials, but who even then don't really give a hoot about one another as a cohesive unit - that they are basically operating as individuals (which would be okay, were they not sharing initials); or are they falling apart; or is Paul of such poor character that he simply doesn't stand up for friends, and talks smack mostly with backhanded comments and gossipy backstabbing (I've heard "one CFF guy said this about another CFF guy" a number of times from his mouth)?
Thanks in advance,
