ASHBURN, Va. (AP) -- A paintball shot in the groin left rookie LaRon Landry unable to practice when the Washington Redskins opened their minicamp Friday.The No. 6 overall pick in this year's draft was injured during a team-building outing Wednesday, when coach Joe Gibbs allowed the players to leave early at the end of the voluntary spring workouts. Some players went bowling or had lunch together, while many of the defensive players went to play paintball."I didn't know paintball was that dangerous," linebacker Marcus Washington said. "I hope it wasn't friendly fire."Landry was on the sidelines when practice began, but within minutes he left and began laboring slowly up the hill toward the team's main building, appearing to favor his left leg.Gibbs said Landry should be fine after a couple of days' rest."It's kind of bizarre," Gibbs said. "Almost anything can happen in life, so every now and then something like that does happen."

Gives new meaning to the term paint ... ball. I wonder if Sean Taylor was the shooter. My heart goes out to LaRon and his family.

Don't know anything about paintball but it would seem wise to wear a cup if you ask me.

I had a close call once and have worn a cup ever since. Testicle has the same consistancy as your eyeball.

i never wear a cup playing paintball. Had a few close calls. I took one in the neck from point blank range that left a nasty mark. Also took one in the stomach after i was already out (nervous new guy who claimed he didnt hear me calling "out")

One time I when I went paintballing, I shot a guy in the nuts 3 times from about 10 feet away as I was crouching in a bush.

I was laughing my ### off as he screamed "STOP ALREADY"

Please, use "groin". Nuts is offensive. Or so I gather.
