this season is chock full of player movement, team upheaval, sweet
tourneys, etc!
bravo losing livelogic to prairie fire?
jimmy foster, chicken, ryan purcell all trying out for boston?
machine picking up BAT studs?
Revolver getting Beau, Mac Taylor, and rocking calstates?
Jam with new blood of will chen, speedster jason zhang, others?
Rhino beating sockeye x then tanking at CalStates?
San Diego combining talent into one team?
PoNY picking up Heijman and more?
Doublewide potentially getting Kurt Gibson?
Come on RSD!
Great topic. Are these guys all moving to different cities or, for
example is Taylor staying in CO but playing for Revolver. I know
mixed has people flying in from all over for the tournaments but I
thought the open guys generally lived in the same town (for obvious
reasons).
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~`
---Club ultimate...it's blllllllllllzzzzzzzttttttttttttttttttttttttt-
tastic...
Mac will be taking a job in california. martin, beau, and mac have
agreed to partake in a new porn project, and let's be honest, should
be a distraction to their revolver teammates, and obviously to the
ladies over on fury. great expectation may soon be replaced with some
really great porn. rob, you'll probably want to get a film crew
stationed in the bay area.
and let's not forget popes hunting bears in alaska. we'll be reading
about him in the newspapers and the mauling that occurred -- "3 bears
choked out before the unseen 4th rips popes' curageous heart out".
match will write blathering nonsense about the demise of bravo this
year. know this much -- it'll be a different cast of folks with some
new faces that you'll have recognized from years past and duders
wearin' jerseys of a different color. change is good.
and then there's the thread of 2010, when we find out popes didn't
die...he killed the 4th bear first and faked hsi death, to then retrun
to colorado. no longer into the wild, his outward bound trek will
have stumbled his gangly legs into the bay area, where he'll produce a
little porn himself and sway martin, beau, and mac back to the
economic graces of colorado. the porn industry will take an obvious
hit and we'll all be sitting safely under the blanket of stars and
stripes, watchin' hector bound in from the plains - degree in hand -
realizin' wisconsin will always be there when he needs it. that's
what the summers are for.
bravo tryouts this weekend will be sick. hopin' frank stops by with
his adventures of 'scoops tourin' through colorado. colorado cup not
too far off. it won't be like livelogic. not even fuckin' close.
dar.
I think I'm rooting for Bravo this year.
He might not be Dan Heijman, but (under the more category) PoNY also
got Stephen Glauser, one of the better (and dare I say lesser-known)
players to come out of the Metro East region (SUNY Buffalo)
HA, that's a laughable pickup. Everybody knows that Glauser is so bad
at ultimate that WUDI wouldn't even let him play in their open (read:
worse) league.
That is true, it won't be like Live Logic. Prairie Fire won't even
get a chance to compete against Bravo. Too bad.
Is there no opportunity to win the lower and play on Sunday in the
elite? That sucks. I thought you guys played well at livelogic, and
seems like you are looking to improve on last year's results.
I know how you can play against Bravo at CoCup. Put that 4 grand you
won at livelogic on the table, and I bet they would make time to
play...
Jerrod,
i promised y'all that i would lobby for ya and i will. thing is, i
think we're chargin' $4000 for entry into the elite division and who
has that kind of cash?! think of it as a retainer..."retaaaaaiiiner".
and i'll have your beer from 2002, also as promised.
wasn't there a play in game last year? i thought we had this come up
last year or the year prior and there was a play-in game. anyway, i'm
not the TD but your message will get passed.
dar.
Ring of Fire - http://ringoffireultimate.com/news.php

and well...that's kind of it. Does Forge have a website? Pike has
one that is pretty out-of-date. Couldn't find one for X-Rates or
Wiretap. Medicine Men has a website (http://sites.google.com/site/
medicinemenultimate/) but no roster listing.
I don't have much insight into the posted rosters, but I look forward
to seeing how other top MA teams shake out.
so, no poulos on ring this year? injured? cut? moved? forget to put
his name on the roster?
dar.
Bravo lost to Doublewide X, 2 years ago when we made finals at
nationals. You can read into these early season loses as much as you
can read into Sockeye X loosing to Revolver.
If a spot opens up at CC Jerrod, it's in all likelyhood yours.
-ttt
I wasn't implying we expect to be better than Bravo, and I know you
Bravo guys know that. However, we do know that we can compete with
these Elite teams if given the chance. It would just be nice for a
team like ours to get a shot at playing against the Elite and gain
that experience. We are looking forward to being out at Colorado Cup
either way.
Dar, I'll finally collect those beers, possibly during your showcase
game Saturday night?
One more topic for this thread: The potential shakeup in the Central
with Sub Zero losing guys. Does Sub stay on top? Is Madison the new
top dog? Does Machine make that jump? Prairie Fire surprise the Big 3?
Madcow make another run at it?
I personally think that the Central region has a lot of very talented
teams. Should be interesting to see how it all plays out.
well, I had an accident a month and a half ago where I hurt myself
pretty badly. not sure what my status will be but keeping the hopes
up. no matter who you guys lost, I am assuming you guys will be tough
as always. thanks for the concern and good luck with the early season.
Out of curiosity, which BAT players are trying out for / have made
machine?
---the smart ones, i bet....
WUFF CAMP!

jam looks like it has some huge changes if the most recent roster
posting from cal states is accurate: no steets and no husak?! any
idea where they're headed? they're impact players who repeatedly came
up with plays in the finals last year; it'll be tough to fill their
shoes. (just looked them up on seidler's site: won club nationals in
2000, 2001, and world's in 2002, with the condors, nationals again in
2008 with jam, and husak won world's last year with the US masters
team and college nationals in '96, '97, '98 with the black tide. if
they're retiring, they've certainly had storied careers). also heard
the rumor that whit clark was leaving the condors, but don't know how
accurate it is.
sean
> sean- Hide quoted text -
There are a lot of rumors, and a lot of credence to them, check the
Revolver roster: http://upa.org/scores/scores.cgi?div=124&page=3&team=5048
Also, Truck Stop picks up Michael Stout? New D line play, Brian/
Michael Stout gets the disc, hucks it to Michael/Brian Stout.
Best post ever?
Um in other thoughts on this thread-
- Truck Stop has a baller web page and will finally beat Ring in
Regionals, this year. You heard it here first. (Note: the win and
the website are not related.)
- Whit C., from what I know, is moving up to the SF area and trying to
play with Revolver. Not Condors.
- PoNY seems to lose TONS of games that it shouldn't... but they have
so much damn talent on that team. I hope this year they finally play
up to their potential. Lot of good players on that squad. (Someone
has to tell Masulis to stop handling though and get back to his
fundamental strength - beating people to the disc.)
- Final 4 at nationals are Boston, Revolver, Bravo and... Chain
Lightning.
Wow, that roster is loaded. Sure looks like it could be Revolver's
year to make some noise.
The Central region is going to be interesting this year. You have the
situation with Sub Zero which might level the playing field a bit. I
have a good feeling Prairie Fire will take a bid to Nationals. The
west plains will be fun to watch. After Rawhide split, I'm guessing a
bunch of those guys will go to Ludicrous Speed, and some to a possible
new team out of Springfield, MO. Although there will be some good
players coming from Rawhide to this probable team, I don't know that
it'll be something to worry about. There are two more new teams in
the West Plains too. Fire At The Circus from Lincoln has that new
team energy, with some kinks to fix. Nice guys, really ambitious, and
getting a lot of support from third year Rigor Mortis. Rigor Mortis,
granted the rest of the team commits more, might be packing more
power. Tim Hoarty is a guy who has a lot of passion for the game and
can do almost anything he wants on the field, especially accompanied
by Tim Hopp. Also new in the west plains, Rumspringa from Iowa City,
IA. Notable FOTY and "tool" Tyler Glenn is on this team, as well as
GoP(enis) Alum Abraham Graber, and Dennis Tarasi from Truman.
However, they pose no threat to West Plains Sectionals 2008 Champion
(2nd place) Ngarwhale (sp?). Word is they sent Jordan Seaberg to a 18
and under ultimate camp, and he's now unstoppable. At reading. He
can finish a 500 page book in less than an hour.
Also, Ames Mixed reloaded. Someone else can talk about that. I hate
women.
is Seth Wiggins headed back up north to play with his brother?
I think Cissna and Gabe are out for jam, in addition to husak and
steets. Think I saw husak and cissna at calstates in street clothes,
which would make it appear they are taking the year off / retired.
Condors lost a bunch to LA and retirement.
Seth Wiggins was playing with Sockeye.
is Chase back playing with Sockeye? he's on their website, but
perhaps it hasn't been updated?
Jello and Rook are in for sure
Ricky, Jake, and Purcell are all possibilities, but I am not exactly
sure of their status. Purcell is trying out for Boston as well.
Also, Tyler made Sockeye and Jason Zhang made Jam.
No wonder we don't have a team anymore....
E

Sockeye's website still has the 2008 Worlds roster posted. Chase is
in Appalachia.
As for Seth he still lives in the Bay Area; not sure if he has decided
that Team USA is enough ultimate for one year, or if he is going to
join the growing Bay Area-Seattle ultimate exchange program.
Among those not coming back in 2009 are Forch and Dan Patisteas.
PoNY sucks.
Last rumor I heard has Chase playing mixed with Axis of C'Ville. No
clue as to the likelihood that it's true though.
Is Forch done? and is Dan going back to Slow white in mixed?
I've been told that's very true.
T
apparently it happened
Huh, did he not make sockeye then or choose not to travel? Solid,
tall roster. Picked up Rory from ucsb too, though he goes against the
whole tall thing.
Ah, Paul, you are an expert promoter. Hopefully Fire at the Circus and
Rigor Mortis can earn some respect for Nebraska Ultimate in the West
Plains! Gnarwhal always has a place in our hearts as well, of course.
Dan is going back to Slow White. The three Patisteas brothers are
finally playing together.
bump
I saw Pike doing tryouts today. A lot of new faces. Some old
ones....
The faces I saw and recognized were:
Dusty
Tom Carroll
Tim Johnson
Tous
The Asian Guy From Rutgers Who Seems To Keep Jumping Between PoNY and
Pike
J Dono
I know a buttload of Pike guys left or are looking at playing with
AMP.
That would be Ellis. He lives in a candy store.
How were the rest of your girly drinks, Kazan?
:)
I was unaware that one player constituted a "buttload."
Kazan's got a small butt. It's all relative, you see...
bump
Whoa, is Forch done? That would be terrible, I used to love watching
him play. He's still probably one of the best 5 players I've ever
seen, ridiculous.
Retirement?!
bump
Am I missing something or is this not, like, the coup of the year in
mixed, if not in the entire club series?
Whats going on with San Diego? What teams are combining, can someone
elaborate on what they are looking like?
No K-Rich on Doublewide roster, explanation? Also is Kurt for sure
playing DW?
What does the Sub Zero/ Madison split leave each of those teams
looking like... Who all is going to Madison? What is Sub left looking
like?
Whats the word on Furious this season, any player movement?
-KK
I predict NE will prove to be toughest region to make it to Nationals
this year. Lots of expectations (unmet ^ met) from many teams ready
to take #1 spot this year that will produce some quality matchups come
eoty.
go chicago machine
J
Obviously Kurt is playing DingWop!! I thought everyone already knew
that...
bump
Sub: Minus Jack Marsh (PoNY?), Kevin Riley (PoNY), Hector Valdivia
(Madison), Muffin Malacheck (Madison), Grant Lindsley (abroad), Dan
Heijman (PoNY), Jim Foster (Boston?), Chris Rupp (Madison?), Greg
Shirborn? (??)
Madison: Plus Hector Valdivia, Muffin Malacheck, Chris Rupp?; Minus:
Matt Rebholz (Boston), Cullen Geopert (Machine)
Oh I forgot a little someone; Andrew Brown (Furious?)
K-Rich is playing for Dallas now.
I heard K-Rich made DW but decided to play with his brother on the
Dallas team, can't fault him for that.
Would that be Dallas United? Anybody know anything about this team?
They're relatively new and have never made the nationals, right?
Is Dallas the same team as Grit? Help out a misguided east coaster.
>
> Is Dallas the same team as Grit? Help out a misguided east coaster.
Yes, you are correct. Additionally, I heard the same thing about K-
Rich's reason for playing Dallas again.
I heard he wanted to play with some idiot named "dirt monster #1."
What a stupid name.
Oh and GRIT is DallasU, picking up some UNT guys, some that didnt
make DW and some on the club scene for the first time.
Chain and DW will be incredible this year. DW will have some
chemistry issues on the D-line O, but they are athletic as hell with
Jake Anderson, Kurt and Casey Hogg running the d-line as newcomers.
Brooks
Gibson and Anderson on the same line? Yep, might be a few chemistry
issues there...
I don't know any of these guys and I'm a terrible ultimate player, but
as a fan I hope that Anderson wears #17 again. When Gibson throws it
away to Anderson the fans can yell, "Suck it 17!" When they both go up
for a floaty pass and Gibson skies everyone (including Anderson),
"Suck it 17!" When Anderson is standing on the line and he gets called
off for Gibson, ... you get the idea. I'm sure they have no animosity
toward each other, but as a fan, I don't care. I just wanna yell
things.

Some off the cuff comments from someone who knows absolutely nothing
about any of this:
Looks like Sub lost a bunch of Wisconsin guys, was there some kind of
Minneapolis/Madison split or just coincidence?
Taylor from U of Colorado is a Revolver addition, right?
I think Truckstop might have a good year. Plus DC needs at least one
decent sports team.
So basically Johnny Bravo lost all of their best players.
Sub Zero seems screwed
chain added robert runner, and last i heard peter dempsey was trying
out so if that's true i'd assume they added him as well.
ring's updated roster is on their website. they added rusty ingold-
smith and brian casey from unc-w and chris gibson from florida. they
updated things to add numbers to players so the new guys are no longer
isolated at the bottom so i don't remember who the other few were.
PoNY gained Kevin Riley, Dan Heijman, and Jack Marsh
Ironside lost Brent Anderson, and gained Matt Rebholz, Chicken, Jimmy
Foster, Seth Reinhardt, Peter Prial, and possibly Ryan Purcell?
Will Lokke is playing with Chain
Dan Heijman and Jack Marsh on the same team again? I don;t think
sooooo.
My friends brother know's the Sub-Zero guys and said that those 2 do
NOT get along. Thats a big reason why Heijman transferred to PONY
Fudge
Eau Zone #7
Capitals, Mystics, United.....these are not good DC sports teams?
Jack Marsh is listed on Sub Zero's roster.
Really? Dan Heijman moved from Wisconsin to New York because of Jack
Marsh?
Yes. Dan's girlfirend used to do all this freaky shit with Jack but
once they broke up she stopped doing all the freaky shit. Dan assumed
(rightfully so) that if he moved to NY with her she would start doing
the freaky shit again. Needless to say they are very happy now and
Jack is incredibly sad.
Don't write about what ultimate players' girlfriends do or do not do
in bed, even if you are kidding. Save it for the stretch circle.
I'm sorry. I didn't think through the consequences of my actions.
Now everyone will think she really does freaky shit. I was just just
trying to drum up interest in the sport. Sort of like when Jason Kidd
and Jimmy Jackson were feuding over Toni Braxton. I thought that was
the stuff fans wanted to know about. Eventually I will learn how to
use this forum properly.
