Lane James has long run a successful retail store and sports website. Now he takes that business one step further with his sports gear blog, giving sports fans worldwide the opportunity to share their thoughts and giving him the ability to communicate directly with his buying public.
On The Field began as a brick-and-mortar store in Seattle, located in the shadow of the Kingdome (which was still standing, back then). Lane grew his business into a respected landmark in the community, building a loyal customer base and a reputation for both quality products and exemplary customer service. In 1997, he opened the business up to the Internet, offering a catalog of fine sports jerseys.
The blog will also feature information on the various charities On The Field is involved in, be they donations or sponsorships.

It’s hard to tell by looking at their war-inspired business, but Dan Levesque and Stephanie Page are two of the friendliest owner-operators you’ll ever encounter. The two started a paintball gun business called ChoicePaintballGuns.com, an entrepreneurial endeavor that allows them to find like-minded individuals and arm them to the teeth with the latest and most authentic paintball arsenals in the modern world.
Thus far, the two have been receiving rave reviews in their website’s testimonials section. Veteran paintballers from all over the country are flocking to the site because of its ease of navigability and its unparalleled attention to customer support.
Understandably so–the weapons offered on the site look so true-to-life they make any other gun look like a cheap Super Soaker. They are so realistic in appearance that law enforcement and military personnel actually train with them.
The site boasts that a customer’s paintball opponents will be so afraid of the awesome power of their guns, they will only be able to shoot them in the back as they retreat.
