Safety Tip #1: If you're the physio working a tournament, you should probably think of the phrase "Laughter is the Best Medicine" as just a rough guideline, and not some sort of hard and fast rule.

Before you start complaining about me not throwing to you, remember that when our forefathers founded this country no one threw frisbees to them either. So when I hear you whining it sounds alot like you are knocking the good ol' United States of America.

Running around in ever decreasing circles will almost never get you clear of your defender. But, if thats all you want out of Ultimate then I guess you just aren't ready for the next level.

Cheap Thought

A team of wily veterans will almost always beat a bunch of fast running rookies. But, give those rookies some guns and it's really a completely different dynamic.

They say that blind people's other senses grow stronger to compensate. That's why if I ever play a blind team I'm going to ask for them to spot me some points to even things up.

Those dogs that catch and return the disc look like fun but I don't think I would enjoy it unless the dog had no saliva glands. How about it science?

p.s. if the dog glowed like a Moonlighter that would be a bonus! But, no pressure, the spit thing would still be cool.

If I was teaching kids the game, I wouldn't try to cover slag cheers in just a single lesson - it's far too rich a subject.

As I see my children getting into Ultimate at the same time as my game grows steadily weaker - I think about how soon I will pass on the torch for them to carry. Stupid torch - lets see how well they play running with it.

Cheap Thought

I was amazed to find that spitting on an opponent is actually against the rules rather than simply not recommended. Makes you wonder if the members of the rules committee actually play the game.

Some guys feel threatened by strong female players on their team. Not me. Although I do sometimes feel threatened by strong male players telling me to stop threatening their strong female player wives.

Cheap Thought

If I could teach new players just one thing I expect they would want the money back they paid me for lessons.

Let me be perfectly clear. If it ever starts to be more about the grenades than the disc, then and only then, will I consider a rule change.

If I was a knight laying siege to a castle I'd organize an Ultimate tourney right outside the castle walls. After the tourney was over I guess I'd have to start worrying about the siege again.

Cheap Thought

When I first started playing Ultimate, I used to let poor SOTG really get to me. But then I said to myself "What do you care if you have rotten Spirit?". Then I felt much better.

Cheap Thought

I heard that around 47% of our league is female. It's incredible that I'm as good as I am when I only have just over half the people playing to throw to.
