Blowing Up The Request Line

People are going inZANE for Wolfpack membership!  What was once a one man dominant force has quickly turned into Wolfpack-fever!!  I will tell you this, at least no boners have asked to be in the Wolfpack.  Thus far, all very good candidates.  For many though, it will be in their dreams when they hear,”The council [...]

It Is So Hard To Say Goodbye To Yesterday

College Ultimate!  Leave me alone.  So, last year I played with Iowa State Ultimate Club.  My only reason for taking some classes was so that I could get enough experience to be on a club team of sorts.  Since I started playing, competing at a competitive level has been my goal; and a team that [...]

Yes, Pete, It Is. In Fact , It’s Pronounced “Mill-E-Wah-Que” Which Is Algonquin For “The Good Land.”

Cooler is over and it was cooler than usual (or at least last year).  This weekend wasn’t what I expected on a lot of levels, but in the end, it was an ultimate tournament and those make me happy.  Friday we left early and got in Milwaukee at about 7:30ish.  We setup camp, threw around, [...]

Put Me In (as) Coach

One of my favorite things about Ultimate is mentorship.  It is in my true nature as a ‘know-it-all’, to give advice at will.  I do this for my satisfaction and for some level of altruism as well.  I like to be known as a helpful person, and some times giving advice has the desired affect.  [...]

Small Rack-Attack, In The City Of Rock, And Ding Wop!

I had a great weekend at Motown Throwdown.  I had never been to Detroit or the area before this trip.  Recapping will begin now.
On Friday, we left Ames late, after I picked up our jersey order along with the Small Rackages order.  This took longer than expected and we got on the road at like [...]

Layup That’s What The Backboard Is For

Motown Throwdown this weekend.  Going to play some games with Ding Wop since VBB will not be going.  Should be a fun weekend all around, I do look forward to watching Small Rackages play as well.  They have such a potential to be a powerhouse, it is crazy.  Plus, the ladies on that team are [...]

LinkFest2003: For Mike.

LinkFest2003 is my new linking “service”.  I like the idea of micro-blogging links on the side of longer posts here.  So for now, the LinkFest2003 feed is on the side panel of this blog, and also here.
The first actual LinkFest2003 link, is for Mike Lun.  Mike had been looking for a good archive of the [...]

Write Up, Write Now: The Boston Invite Via A Rookie’s Eyes

This weekend I spent my time at the Boston Invite.  This was my first ever tournament with the Van Buren Boys, as well as my first official club season tournament.  It started off with airport stress from tornadoes and rain storms, making flights delayed.  So while my traveling escapades were heart burn city, luckily, I [...]

What To Do In Boston?

In a couple of days, I will officially be walking the streets of Boston.  The Boston Invitational is this weekend and the Van Buren Boys hope to make a strong debut.  I am confident that we will have a decent impact on our pool and the elite division as a whole.  As an over-confident player,  [...]
