A recap of day 2

It was an interesting day for Too Bad, our inconsistency definitely caught up with us. We played three games and lost all three in what could be measured as relatively close terms. Our first matchup of the day was against Phoenix and we made them work for their win. We started out with two breaks and continued to hold our lead until half. It was a game where we faltered at the end due to concentration but overall quite a bit of fun.

Day 1…what?

Day one has finished itself off quite wonderfully and here I am in bed typing up a few words. While I ran hard today and am tired right now I know that tomorrow I will bring yet more energy to the game, more speed, more intensity because that’s what my team needs and deserves. However, there’s something you deserve. A quick recap of the day; here are some things off of the top of my head:

Day 1 at Nationals: the Fossil perspective

Again, apologies for not tweeting the live score updates; I thought I was, fortunately someone pointed out my error. As for Day 1 at Nationals, it was an exciting experience for me, as I was one of a handful of Fossil players making their CUC debuts today. Oddly, wasn’t as nervous as I thought I would be. Don’t know if that’s a good thing. Our 1st game was a rematch of a very intense matchup at No Borders against BDU (universe point win for Fossil).

The Buzz

As I sit here typing I am impatient. Impatient to play, impatient to see my friends, impatient to move and get on with it. It’s not anticipation, it’s impatience. It’s at this time I have to calm down, conserve energy, stay focused, eat, and enjoy that tingling sensation of knowing that something great is about to happen. There’s a great unknown ahead but that comes from playing with Too Bad. With a changing roster each tournament has a different feel.

A viewers guide to Day 2 at CUC 09

Since day 2 matchups rely directly on results from day 1, I’m going to give an overview of matchups that can/should happen. Day 2 Mixed Pool E – Fields 8,9,10 TFP vs. Chaos Before TFP started it’s dynasty (4 CUC titles in 5 years). There was Chaos. Chaos won in Montreal and Ottawa (2003 and 1999) and made the finals in 3 years (2006, 2001 and 2000). It’s a good bet that one of these two teams if not both will meet at Bomber stadium on Sunday.

The Other Tournament.

While most of the big Canadian teams are heading to Manitoba this week for CUC 09, 3 of Canada’s elite teams are heading to Burlington Washington for the Emerald City Classic (http://www.emeraldcityclassic.com/). ECC is quite possibly the best ultimate tournament available. It pits the quarter finalists from last years UPA’s plus some Invite teams (a team from Columbia and England this year in the Open division, Columbia and Japan in the Womens division).
