New things

For the first time in... a long time, I have a job. And in my second full week of work (next week), I'm being sent to Las Vegas for a trade show. For a week. Everything paid for. Can you say awesome?

Also, since I have a job, I can start coaching again. Shweeet.

Feel insignificant yet?



Good luck to Polar Bears this weekend.

The Rules

http://www.usaultimate.org/resources/officiating/rules/11th_edition_rules.aspx
This has been up for a little while, but with the Club Series upon us it is a bit more relevant.

If you haven't read the rules already then you obviously have no respect for our sport and the SotG that we all claim to try to follow. In a player-officiated sport it is usually pretty important that the players know what and when to actually call something.

For those of you that have read this before then please reread this version. The UPA USA Ultimate has finally put a notes to clarify most of the harder to understand rules (in red.)

So check it out. Especially before you make some mistaken call this weekend.




P.S. Congrats to the Polar Bears for their sectionals win this past weekend. Regionals in 17 days (according to 808's daily ticker.)

Discos 2010

Discos Calientes is this weekend: https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AmeLsG3nk9lMdGNUTTUxUzhFN3FsXzlOMWtpeVBJSWc&hl=en&authkey=CNyR0oEH#gid=0
We are in a pool with Seduction... and 3 other teams that I have no idea about. But really I don't know who any of the teams at this tournament are. All I do know for sure is that it will be hot, and that we have the worst possible schedule. Most of us won't be arriving till well after midnight, and we have a first round game. Then we play late on Sunday, which means most of us won't get back to So Cal till well after midnight. Oh well.

My fever finally broke today, so I should actually be healthy enough to play. I've been sick since Venus left last Thursday. A week. Usually I'm only sick for 2-3 days. Oh well.

I took a page out of 808's book. New team, new role, new number.

PS. Good luck to Polar Bears, Safari, Streetgang and Metro this weekend at ECC. Make some highlights for me to watch on Ultivillage.
