Hmmm, it seems my days are numbered on the frisbee field. It has been a crazy past 5 months that has involved basically no frisbee, besides showing up to the occasional practice for ~1 hour and then leaving bummed that I could not play. For the first time since sophomore year in college, frisbee was not a priority at all. BUT I did get my schooling done and well, my family increased by one.

So yeah, it was a great year. And we are heading out of the great Central region. I will be moving to Hamilton, Montana working for one of the big pharma companies out there. Everywhere I tried to go, they told me I needed more experience (great, now a phd is not enough). Well, I guess Hamilton, MT is the perfect place for that experience gathering mission.

What may surprise you is that Hamilton does not seem to have much frisbee. Part of the bummer is frisbee has been so much of our social scene. Although it is close to Missoula, so I am thinking it is time to strap on the ol' summer league cleats. I have not played summer league since Ann Arbor in 99. It should be a good time and I think I found some stuff about the league, at least last year's league. Or maybe it will be good not to hang out with frisbee players all the time.

There is a competitive co-ed team in Missoula. So maybe we will play co-ed... Now, if I only had not made fun of co-ed so much, it would not feel so weird to say that. Or I will rent myself out to the highest bidder. Highest bidder being very key there.

Oh, Jim- the secret to a Huck 'n' Hope team is they can also be flash in the pan teams. For example, you could argue Zero 99 was a HnH team. Pike of 04. Ring of 02. So yeah, AJ I am looking at you right now. Where will Chain fall? Basically, if a team flounders in the 8-12 range, jumps up the semis and then falls back down to the > 10 range, they were probably HnH. That is my theory and I am sticking to it. Maybe sometime if I can find the time I will expand on this theory. Cheers.
