Finally someone said use wood or something, don't just go hammer to cup, you will fuck them up!  To get the first side out, the hard side because you have to hammer through the small hole from the other cup, I use a screw driver or Icepick, and I put a cork on the end of it, then simply put it in and rest it on the inside of the other cup and hammer out.  The second side is easiest, you can use the same tool as before, or I actually have a little cup removal tool I made in high school.  Its basicly a hardened peice of wood (like bat wood) I shaved it down so it would be smaller than the BB its self and simply slide it in and bang the other cup out.  But for the love of god do not go metal to metal on bb cups, they are only llike aluminum.
