and how people can just turn a blind eye to overt acts of stealing
within the ultimate community. how is it that the only person that is
taking a stand against such an immoral, dishonorable and UNSPIRITED
act (which also happens to be one of the ten commmandments AND is
against the law) is someone that dosent even believe in the concept of
sotg much less the positive effects playing by sotg produces.

yall mofos are ate up with it with all your spirit bullshit. and
those of you that dont subscribe to it but toleate it are a bunch of
bitches.........usau bitches

i didn think anybody could explain it.......or is it that when the
words come out of your mouth (or off your fingers) the concept of self
officiation to enact some greater good is just so stupid that people
cant even bring themselves to comment.

i can see that.

Someone has a case of the Fridays! You know what Alan
Jackson says

"The sun is hot and that ol' clock is movin' slow
And so am I
Workday passes like molassas in wintertime
But it's July
Gettin' paid by the hour and older by the minute
My boss just pushed me over the limit
I'd like to call him somethin'
But think I'll just call it a day"

Time to call it a day!

i don't understand why you needed to spam RSD with this question. i
found it in two clicks on the USAU website.

What do you want the USAU to do differently? Would you
prefer a more UOA approach with their rules/laws and use of
observers or would you like to see the sport progress
another way?

You said on another thread you want a "complete overhaul" of
the sport..... if you want something that different maybe
you'd be better suited in a different sport altogether? Do
you like Ultimate enough that you want it to change (for the
better) or do you just want it to be like other sports (as
far as officiating, marketing, media , etc.)?

I would like to see Ultimate viewed (and respected) as
equally as other major sports, but of course that would take
a lot of changing from how it's structured now. I like a
lot of the things that make Ultimate what it is
(self-officiating, community of players, even SOTG) but
these things do hinder it's marketability and progression to
a completely competitive sport.

Just curious about your thoughts on what changes the USAU
should make or what you would do differently if you were in
charge? specifics if possible :)

FUCKIN STUPID IT IS, AND THAT ITS NO WAY TO ARBITRATE A
SPORT.......during any official competition anyways

everything.....which starts with conforming to the norms that already
exist in the supset of sports......which i believe ultimate wants to
be included in

yes, yes and yes
-----------------------------------

or maybe ultimate should just stop thinking of itself as a "sport",
save uoa comp obviously, as with all that spirity shit it seems like
some kind of hybrid religion/sportlike activity
---------------------------------------------


 Do

to me, it becoming like other sports IS a change for the better
-------------------------------------------

well giddy up then cowboy

as a wise man once said....."change is good" (especially when its so
long overdue)
-----------------------------------

 I like a

well it seems you have a delema......as do many others. and the flim
flammy nature of yall sz's IS what causes ultimate to remain
stagnent. as for me, i hate all that shit you just listed so i have
no delema
-------------------------------------------


but

ever herd the phrase "ya cant have your cake and eat it too"

that would take too long.........just stick with the "complete
overhaul" OR take a look at any other established team field sport and
use your imagination.
