When they fired a man for playing ultimate frisbee I was silent

I can relate to what these guys go through.chuck said:Guess it's the next big thing at UW and HH, being on the cutting edge and all, should be the #1 destination for all of the fan/s. We? are in the title hunt.
I wont let you fucks on the bandwagon later. Better jump onboard now.
Back when I was 45 and still played a lot of coed ultimate frisbee with the trustafarians and gender-neutral coeds from Humbolt State at various Seattle parks, I tore my plantar fascia sprinting to catch a disc on a winter hard sand field.
Being an athlete warrior is hard, demanding work.
UW has a top-notch sports medicine clinic though. That's where I went to get advice on my ultimate injury. I had to sit out 2 seasons (ultimate has 4 seasons in a year).
I hope the kid pulls through.

You are an inspiration my man. I almost feel like this 48 y/o body might have a few seasons left in it this year.MontlakeBridgeTroll said:

Question though...when playing on hard winter ground do you typically go to closed toe sandals? Crocs with the fuzzy liners? Perhaps we need an ultimate subforum here focused on equipment. Stalin? -

@Fire_Marshall_Bill, Frolf is a decent activity to drink a few beers, smoke, and catch a buzz. Used to do it a bit in college.
Never played competitive hoops high, but think I could have very easily. Always played well in pick up after a joint/blunt and agree with Chuck. I’m sure there are many NBA players that do so every game. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Klay Thompson was one of them.
Very rarely smoke or play hoops anymore so I don’t know the next time I will test it out again. -
I can't throw a frisbee worth shit and I'm relatively certain that in my youth, I could dunk over probably 95% of the poasters here and break the ankles of 100%.chuck said:
I'm inferring there are some uncoordinated oafs here who weren't able to pass a sack (or throw a frisbee most likely) and labeled those who were able douches.CaptainPJ said:

UF is lame. I tried playing it for five minutes once and was just like, "This is almost as gay as hackey sack. I'm out."
YW
But again, this is for another day. We'll address some of the other hippie "sports", and the hatred of them by generic jock wannabes, later in the series. We really need to stay focused on the frisbee here. Or just let this thread die. Up to y'all to choose.
Now the vertical is measured in inches instead of feet. And the only breaking would be my achillles.
That said (and Jake Browning still sucks), there is a high incidence of douche in the frisbee crowd but that doesn't mean all frisbee throwers are douches.
Especially if they brought the weed.

No. All frisbee throwers are douches. GDIs to a TPurpleThrobber said:

Ultimate frisbee would be a lot cooler if contact was allowed.
I can throw a frisbee a country mile but could never take this shit seriously. Too many IMA warriors trying too hard at a sport that's the kind of thing you play coed bc it doesn't make the girls feel bad about their lack of athleticism. -

Playing hockey drunk is one of the greatest joys in sports. Even more so if you get into a fight. Even better if it's your friend.Pitchfork51 said:

The one time some kid tried to get agro on defense in ultimate with me I stopped playing while holding the stupid frisbee & shoved him to the ground. I told him if pulled that shit again I'd smash his face in. That akward moment when he realized no one was going to stop me either bc he deserved that shit.
I wish every sport had rules for fighting written in the way hockey and rugby do even if contact isn't allowed. It might even make soccer watchable. -
Soccer sucks. I can’t believe I tried to get into it at a time. I was playing a lot of FIFA which is a great game and since I knew the players in the game I thought I might like it.UW_Doog_Bot said:

We've moved the conversation towards sports where there are girls and you get drunk. Keep up broUW_Doog_Bot said:
