Her husband had awakened her, telling her something was up with her team, as her phone"was going crazy," she said. Her teammates, who were competing on the East Coast, were frantically trying to contact her to alert her about the TikTok video that was setting off a firestorm.Team USA Paintball indefinitely removed player Jessica Maiolo after she posted a viral TikTok video saying a child with Covid-19 needed a "treadmill, not a Covid shot.
"We believe that players must at all times consider the weight of their words, and align themselves with the values of our organization," Team USA Paintball said in a statement Monday, in which it announced that Maiolo had been removed from the team.Paintball players from the San Diego Dynasty, a professional paintball team, said the video put the sport — which they said is largely a welcoming and warm community — in a negative light.
Some smaller organizations that are tangentially related to Team USA Paintball said they were inundated with messages and backlash, as well, even though they have no connection to Maiolo.
I guess young Jeasica paintballed herself into a corner on this. sarcasmisfun
Gotta stay in lockstep with the party line, girl. Good thing they canceled her before she did something even worse like wave an American flag or something.
There’s a paintball community?
...we have a national paintball team?
No such thing as paintball professionals
Wow, you're still posting this crap?
They have pro paintball?
Lol, we have a paint ball team.... Who is it sponsored by, Sherwin Williams ?
Team USA Unicycle Hockey has pledged to be 100% vaccinated by the end of August.
did not know Paintball was a sport.
Best quote: 'A lot of people are paying attention to [paintball] right now...'
Professional Paintball Player!? She’s a top prospect for Sherwin-Wiliams now that she f**ked up by opening her fat mouth.
her message: 'Ma'am, your kid does not need a Covid shot. Your kid needs a f------ treadmill' Since obesity is a greater health risk than covid statistically, her message was on the right track. If she added 'only' before 'a Covid shot', she would have been 100% correct
Mean mean mean,, temporarily kicking her off the paintball team.Just mean..
Awesome! Let the brat think about her actions! Bully!
Fat shaming white a child is battling covid is DESPICABLE
She’s a hero 🥰
, ladies and gentlemen. When you need the important stuff! 👍
who knew there was 'a paintball community'
TEAM USA WIFE CARRY IS 56% vaccinated
Fatphobic? Is that a thing?
Wait there is such a thing as pro-paint ball?
“The larger paintball community”
TEAM USA PIGEON RACING 100% VACCINATED!!!!
Proof that news is complete fiction…paintball community 😂
An anti-vaccination, fatphobic, professional paintballer.
Never visit these 10 Countries in 2021 😱🧐
There’s a professional paintball community?
Professional?
That's good to know. I suspect that where the paintball community goes, soon follows the laser tag consortium. Soon, dungeon masters will unite and we will learn the leanings of all of the paladins, as well. I only hope the Grand Theft Auto Cartel is masking up, we may need them.
Lol. Paintball.
Maybe she should apologize to the other 9 people in the larger paintball community.
There’s a paintball community?
Professional paintball players...
The paint ball community made it to the NBC platform
She was correct! If own it you need to understand why you are where you are!
So all the kids in ICU beds for covid is because they are fat? I hope she doesn't get really sick from covid she might think shes overweight n become anorexic or bulimic.
Just shocked that there is a team USA for paintball
No one even knows thr professional paintball community existed. So I think were all good here.
This is not news.
Professional paintball? Did not know such a thing existed.
The right to free speech eh?
I still can't believe that real account manager exist I am so happy trading with Marcus90388 i never took her serious because I taught she was a scam like others ,until my first withdrawal of $10,000 within just one week of trading! I am so grateful to her and i can't keep this
Paintball lmfao
“the larger paintball community”? 😂😂😂
Karen
Professional what now?
Fatphobia isn’t real
I base all my life decisions on what professional paintball players do.
There is a pro paintball team?!
Posted for 4 straight days and still not newsworthy. Move ON.
I would do it again if I was her. Have no fear in the face of oppression
Fatphobic? Lmao im not scared of someone who won't live past 42. They need to let her back
'given the chance, I wouldn't choose the same words' This is not as redeeming sounding as she thinks it is ...
I learned from this tweet that there is such thing as professional paint ball players and also the word 'fatphobic'.. Is there a vaccine to block this from my already strained brain?
Sorry, you lost me at 'Professional paintball players...'.
We stand by you Jessica!
If COVID-19 is anywhere, it is potentially everywhere. COVID-19 vaccines will save many lives.
VaxUPBitches! DON'T be an AntiScienceAHole!! NoVaxNoOpen!
There are professional paintball players!!!
Professional paintball? WTF?! onlyinAmerica
Paintball is an Olympic sport? What?
Apparently the paintball community needs to grow a pair. What she said may have been off putting, but she wasn’t wrong. Obesity is a problem. Promote a healthy lifestyle to help fight covid.
FUNNAGAN Paintdeja
‘Paintball community’?
...and I thought paintball was only for bachelor parties.
Paintball community
Fatphobic 😂 😂 😂
Biggest take away from this.. the USA has an official paint ball team
Many perceived it as anti-vax and fat-phobic because it was. How strong does fat shaming have to be before you stop qualifying your reporting?
Why do people insist on ruining their careers for the sake of that one social media banger?
We have a paintball team?
There's a professional paintball league? How pathetic is that? Were they there at the Capitol on January 6th?
She is a legend.
Professional Paintball?!?!!
By “larger paintball community” do they mean fat?
A community hardly anyone knew existed
The most surpriseparty nog thing for me in this story is the fact that there is a professional paintball team
(Professional) Paint Ball? My father... Whats next? Professional lays?
I am not sure you want to read sharp stuff
Lol Fat phobic
How fat was the kid? Childhood obesity is a major health issue in this Country. Her words were course but not untrue. You see a negative comment that hurts feelings, I see an unfiltered wake up call
Just like with Polio and other viruses, it ends when everyone is vaccinated. Nothing new under the sun.
Is it wrong to be point that a large portion of COVID deaths were due to people being FAT? (I’m fat myself btw.) if people weren’t so effing fat they probably beat COVID without having to go to the Hospital.
For me the saddest thing about this is learning there are professional paintball players and that the US has such a team.
Wait what? There’s a PROFESSIONAL paintball team? Ok.
You should be afraid to be fat. Being fat dramatically increases your chances of getting sick and dying at a young age. Being fat is bad. Being fat is bad. Being fat is bad.
She mocked the TT audience saying nothing was going to happen to her. Have the day you deserve Jessie
There are professional paintball players
i don't feel sorry for losing her spot on the team
WHETHER IT'S REPRESENT OR NOT,LEAVE EVERYONE ELSE WITH HIS OR HER ADVICE AND THINK ABOUT THE NEXT THING TO DO
Holy shit that’s a headline lol

Truth is, she got kicked off the team for repeatedly shooting herself in the foot.
Not sure throwing in the word “larger” is the best decision when referring to a community responding to someone’s perceived “fatphobic” statements…..
“Paintball community” 😂😂😂 wonder how many people around the world would give a double take to that statement 😂😂😂
This just in: there’s something called a “larger paintball community.”
'professional paintball players'
“Professional paintball”
Thats a relief. As goes the paintball community so goes the nation
“Paintball community.” For real? 🤣
SanctionPakistan
Wait...professional paintball is a thing? 🤦🏾♀️
Wait. There's a 'larger paintball community'?
Professional paintball players😀
If you think this is crazy, wait till you find out there's also a pro cornhole league and a pro minigolf circuit.
Any word from the USA National Laser Tag Team on this?
Being stupid is not cool it just makes you collateral damage !
There’s a paint ball community?
💉
moron
Excuse me, NBC? Which 'some' perceived? Some? Notice everybody how NBC instantly goes the coward route, both-sidesing this by creating a false debate that only 'some' people would perceive it this way? She was pretty damn clear what she meant. Oh, and she's a Spreader.
Team paintball?
There goes Jessica Maiolo’s career that no one was even aware of if it wasn’t for this tweet.
Thank you for this important info nbc. I pattern my life after what the paintball players and community represent. Whew. I would’ve had to unvaccinate myself.
There are several people in these comments that are like 'wtf prof paintball?' while they talk about grown men fighting over a weirdly shaped ball every year. Lmao.
I lay awake at night wondering about the overall politics of the paintball community. Fuck...
There’s professional paintball?
...so is CDCgov 'fatphobic' for having an entire page dedicated to obesity making COVID symptoms worse...?
How 'shaming' costs you, your living, huh?!?! 🙄🙄🙄 DAYUM SHAME, AIN'T IT!?!?! 🤣😭😂 FUCKher 🖕🏿💯😂😭🤣
Paintballers getting canceled. Da fuq
Lol paintball community
Professional Paintball Players? Wait! There’s such a thing? Well of course one is bound to be an anti-vaxer! I mean smelling paint and all can’t be I good for their brains.
Stop! There are 'professional' paintball players? Good god above...
The most shocking thing about this is that people take paintball seriously.
While it may have been harsh and cruel, it is true that unhealthy people are not safe from viruses.
Wut?
