oh em gee.
this past weekend was AMAZING.
can you say raw talent? scrub team upsetting established teams? word.
this is the kind of stuff that starts to get us recognized.
a few highlights of my own:
mcgettigan gets a foot block... and catches it. who is this kid? have you seen his hands go up for a disc? no, you haven't. they move too fast to be detected by human eyes. he even moved to handler after some of my worst personal handling moments so i could go downfield. what a team player! oh, and i'm pretty sure he threatened to out-drink gabe. THAT is a challenge if ever i heard one.
galati: has to have one of the lowest turn-over to touches ratio of anyone for the weekend, and one of the most intimidating lay-outs on d i've ever seen, regardless of the situation. muscles, i want to be on the sideline when you're on the field so i can watch the eyes of the opponents when they realize you're headed their way. oh snap.
jen... um, apparently one of the best learners of the game i've ever met, started saturday getting a few touches a game, a few d's on the day, and still a little weary on exactly what's going on when she's on the field... well, let me just say there were a few ladies who may have been exploited and demoralized by her speed, consistency of catching and throwing, and the way she smiles when she scores. ooh, that girl loves to score! and if there's anyone on the team NOT looking for her in the endzone, i'll punch them in the face. even you, mcgettigan.
paula ward the defensive sneak attack. apparently, our opponents can't figure out that paula on her girl's ass is too close to complete the throw. man, she can get in the way of an offense. and how many poach d's did she get on the weekend? i don't know, i don't have the stats... it's more than one and less than a hundred, but i'm pretty sure you have to wear an invisible suit to be that under-expected. we'll likely have her on the primary female cutters this season. can you say "shut down"?
jon montoya: two words: sixth man. jon kept it real up and down the far sideline most of the weekend, came in and played a point or two every now and then and, without fail, got d's on dudes like he was muscles dave and gave like 117% on every play, including laying out for discs, even the ones that had blown out of bounds. let's call him black sabbath out of the stack, 'cause he never says die. i'll tell you what, this guy was the sleeper of the weekend... i had NO clue, jon. i am sorry to have underestimated you. it will never happen again.
matt troup... um. i don't even know what to say. first of all, robin (his daughter who has, like, perfect attendance at practices at which her dad attends) is just cute as a button. second of all, this guy does an awful lot of smiling. i mean, a smiler like that... who'd expect him to pick it up ten notches and bring the team not only up off their ass and on their feets, but then off of their feet in jumps and cheers when he uses those freakishly long arms to get nasty, nasty lay-out d's. one of the clutchest offensive defenders we've got. oh, and those arms are great for the around-the-mark backhand break. look for it on espn.
i'm not going to talk about red at all. he's awesome. blah blah blah. don't get too close, 'cause this kid is sick.
quinn probably doesn't want to hear it, modest as he is... but can i just say i'm pretty sure he caused more turnovers on defense by not touching the disc at all than anyone else. remember how we practiced catching with our eyes closed? well, apparently no one else has figured it out, 'cause quinn flying through your field of vision makes it impossible to catch the disc. also, let me just note that he threw the score for one of the sickest catches i've ever made in my life. for those of you who know me well, you know that's sick like cancer. and, cancer's not funny, just like the look on the guy's face i got to score on. HUH!! thank you, quinn, for that opportunity.
tracy, though not feeling well on saturday, made her position on the field known: i am going to get the disc. by sunday, even though being relatively overthrown every pass, was going up and bringing down discs like she was mcgettigan. very few throw aways and for whatever reason, she seemed to keep finding the women open on in cuts. let me just say: woman to woman is hot. we're going to work on her sneakiness, 'cause she a fast, fast girl and i think a little more confidence will find her with so many d's that she could be an undisputed MVP.
for those of you who didn't hear, gabe and moshe were coming from penn state friday night and moshe's car broke down. they got towed to a pep boys, expecting a quick alternator fix in the morning, but when things didn't go as planned for a second time that weekend, they rented a car and met up with us near the end of the second game, providing us with the offensive power we needed to rock out the rest of the weekend. gabe is one of the most accurate male-to-female throwers i've seen. i think jon put it best when he said, "yeah, there's ben banyas, and then there's gabe." and it's true. he threw some big passes to some open ladies. and if you don't already know, our girls are kinda ridic... let's take note of that for the future: fat girls can't touch us, and gabe will reward us if we just set it up.
oh, and after a poor turnover on gabe's part, he DESTROYED some guy's in-cut, possibly with a lay-out... all i remember was a flash of light, gabe's body exploding through the passing lane and the disc flying out of bounds. he wants it. he wants it bad.
moshe was invaluable, particularly on sunday. i know michael already mentioned it, but throwing 8 of 11(?) scores, and assisting on another... this guy helped make the offense work. not to mention some nasty coverage on defense. i think i can speak for everyone who had the opportunity to play with him this weekend when i say that i hope he's in penn state rather than dc this summer, and i hope he tags along with gabe to every event he possibly can. we want moshe now, we don't want to wait.
brandon, you are a fine specimen of man. consistently one of the first dudes on his guy on defense, as far as overall effort goes for the tournament, he's near the top. his experience playing defense with michigan, a fine college club, is a HUGE asset to our line. he's the kind of player that when you're on the mark and you know his guy's making the in-cut, you don't even worry. you're like, "that thrower doesn't want any of that... if he does, he deserves what he's about to get." AND, he put down an entire colossal burger AND sundae. on sunday! that's like a pun. except not at all.
katie "hands" stiteler scares the crap out of me every time she catches the disc above her head or to the side of her body. it's like she's catching with three fingers and not even looking at the disc... if that indeed is the case, there is no reasonable explanation of how she came down with so many. yikes. andy, you picked a good one. it pleases me to sit out points to have her play in my stead. oh, and katie, you're in that same boat as tracy: i'm going to teach you how to get d's at will. i think you're going to like it. i think andy's going to like it.
andy: thank you for being a trustworthy, tall, fast, back-up handler. another guy who gave me an opportunity to go downfield (and that's my favorite, for those of you who haven't yet figured it out), he helped us eat up some zone defenses with patience and stepping out around the cup to complete big swing passes. i'm pretty sure that the few times we had him in the stack with the ladies, we cut him off a bunch, but as the team offense smooths out, look for him to be a big part of our success in mid-field. long strides, great hands, completed passes... yep. that's a guy you can count on. oh shit... i didn't even mention the string cheese and m&m's. thank you, andy. thank you.
and where would any of us have been without michael? um, lost in delaware, i'm pretty sure. keeping stats, fetching pizza, and posting me on situations one can only see when paying close attention from the sideline, michael's off-field game helped immensely in keeping the sidelines active and involved, happy and social, and well-hydrated and fed. oh, and the hotel, the directions, the tournament bid, all the emails, most of the posts, most of the intelligible captain advice, the tent, the lowering of the tent for mass cuddling during our bye when everyone else got well-rained upon and cold due to the shitty weather... i'm not surprised if he also created the break in the storm that gave us ideal conditions for our final game on saturday, which we took 15-13. 90% of the behind-the-scene work and 100% of the enthusiasm. thanks, michael, for making it all happen.
everyone who missed bell crack but is headed to easterns owes every player a big "thank you" for giving the easterns tournament director something to think about when he does his initial seeding. it should be a hell of a lot easier to play our saturday games when we don't get put at the bottom of the barrel just 'cause we're new and from pittsburgh.
i am s-t-o-k-e-d. what time is it? game time HUH.

Game 1 vs. Philly Swillers (seeded 2 in pool A):
Won the flip, started on D which we got and converted with some patient O for the upwind break. Score 1-0. They take the next point to tie it, and our O-line follows up with another score. Score 2-1. I don't think I can go point to point like this anymore. Let's just say that they started clicking, and we made a handful of minor offensive mistakes that they capitalized upon. Final score 6-15. I'm still pretty happy with the way we played though.
Game 2 vs. Deceptisomethings (seeded 1 in the whole tournament)
Won the flip, stating on D, although I'm not sure how much that mattered. We went in knowing we weren't going to win this game against them and used it to try a few things out (e.g. deep throws). The game went by quick, but we did pull down a couple. Final score 2-15.
Game 3 vs. Grey Till (seeded 4 in pool A)
Won the flip, starting on D, we got the D and easily converted. The rest of the first half went pretty much the same way, although they were able to snag one downwind swilly huck in the half. We gave up three in the second half (one was due to a really awful upwind pull I threw on one of two points I played on the day that gave them great field position). Final score 15-4.
Game 4 vs. Animal (seeded 3 in pool A)
Won the flip, starting on D, which they scored and quickly were down 0-2. We traded a few, but then got two breaks to go up 5-4. We traded until half at 8-7. Starting the second half on O, we scored to go up 9-7 and followed with a break to go 10-7. We traded until they got a break to close it to 11-10. More trading, then we got another break to go to 14-11. They got one more break before we were able to close it out with the final score 15-13.
Saturday results: 2-2, finishing 3rd in the A pool. The way they're handling the brackets is pretty strange, so we don't know whether we'll be in the bottom half of the B-bracket or one of the top 2 teams in the C bracket. We'll find out in the morning.
Highlights of the day:
* 4 for 4 on flips
* Matt ~McGettigan caught his own footblock
* A nasty rainstorm (no lightning, but really high wind gusts) came through, but we happened to be on a bye, so we didn't have to play in it.
* "Take your top off" and other heckle-prompt posters
Lowlights:
* Moshe's car broke down, so Gabe and Moshe didn't arrive until our third game.
B-bracket Quarters vs. Vitamin I
Lost the flip, and then lost 5 straight breaks to go down 0-5. We also lost Red to a concussion in the third point after a poach D resulted in him colliding with the offensive cutter. Oh, and Galati was out for the game with messed up knees. In the 6th point of the came, Andy threw a huge flick into the endzone which everyone was sure was a throwaway since it was sailing way over ~McGettigan's head. Damn, that guy can jump when he needs to! That single play woke us up and got our heads into the game. We proceeded to stay neck and neck, each having one break to reach half at 3-8. We opened the second half with a break, and slowly began chipping away at their lead. I believe we had reached 10-12 when the time cap went on, making it a game to 14, at which point they decided to kill some of our comeback time by calling a timeout. That was enough to ice us enough to stay on serve for the remainder of the game. Final score 11-14. It's worth mentioning that Moshe was on fire in this game, throwing 8 of our 11 goals and assisting in another.
B-bracket consolation Semis vs. Cheburashka
Lost the flip again, and gave up a break for the first point. We then traded in pairs swinging from 0-1 to 2-1 to 2-3 to 4-3 to 4-5. On the next upswing, we tied to 5-5, but then they scored to bring it to 5-6. We took the next two though and traded to half with us up 8-7. In the second half, coming out on D, they scored, but when we rattled off a few in a row, 10-8. They score and we rattle off a couple more, 12-9. At 13-10, we realized that the hard cap should have gone on during the previous point (no one was watching their watches and we didn't hear the horn for the soft cap). We played one more point as Melissa and I argued with the other team about actually enforcing the cap. We pulled down the final score and ended the game, 14-10. Oh, Red decided he was well enough to play again, so he was back for this game. Galati also decided he was just a pansy in the first game and decided he was ready to play again after the first 6 points of this game.
B-bracket consolation Finals vs. Big Red Death Machine
I think we finally won this flip, although it may have been a result of a pokey match. I can't remember which was for the pull and which was for shirt colors, but I believe we won both, so it doesn't really matter. They converted the first point and followed it up with a break. We then converted our score and followed it with two breaks of our own, 3-2. They got the next three bringing it to 3-5, but then we came back to tie it at 5s. They took the next three to bring it to half though. They came out in the second half pretty strong getting the first break, followed by a few more to bring it to 6-13. we only got one more break in the game before we hit the caps for a final score of 9-15.

Throughout the weekend, the wind was pretty brutal. On Saturday, almost every point was upwind/downwind with something like 20 mph sustained winds and gusts up to 35mph. The wind let up quite a bit on Sunday, but was still somewhat of a factor. We started as the sixth seed in a pool with the first, third, and seventh seeds.
First game was against AMP, the number one seed in our section (and now number one seed for regionals this coming weekend). They win the flip, taking the wind. We were able to force one turnover, but on offense couldn't convert upwind, allowing them to get the disc back and take the first score. On the next point, a couple downwind hucks were a little off their mark, and we couldn't prevent AMP from slowly walking the disk upfield with their first break. They followed that with a downwind break to put us down 0-3, but we then figured out how to play the wind a bit, and managed to trade through half at 4-7. There were a few occasions were we almost had upwind breaks, but after working the disc to the goal line for a near break, we got a bit excited and couldn't hold on to the disc. Second half started downwind on O and converted. On the next upwinder, we once again were able to get a d and work the disc to the endzone only to throw the disc away once again, allowing Amp the disc back and their downwind score. Don't know how the game might have been different if we were able to convert either of those breaks to take the early ones back, but at this point I think we relaxed a bit and AMP turned things up as they took the next four, making it 5-12. We traded the last two, finishing the game 6-13.
Next up, the three seed, Delmarvelous. We started with the wind, made a deep shot that didn't connect, but were able to force a turn right outside their endzone for a one throw score. On defense going upwind, we set a hard zone, denying the downwind hucks, and forced a turnover 5 yards outside their endzone. That allowed another one-throw score for the upwind break. We followed that with another downwind break with a crazy score were Red threw into a poached defender, but Matt Troup was able to get a tip on the D'd disc to keep it alive, sending it fluttering into the endzone where ~McGettigan made an amazing rolling maneuver to keep the disc off the ground, eventually controlling it for the score. We're up two breaks at 3-0. We traded a few to 5-3, including a great layout score by Red on a downwind huck. Delmarvelous cleaned up their act a little, getting a little more patient with the disc, and were finally able to capitalize on our downwind huck that was just off its mark. They got their upwind break after a lot of throws; one guy on the sideline came over to me and asked if I was keeping track of number of throws -- they needed a ton to get the disc up the field successfully and we didn't get the D. They followed with a downwind break tying things up at 5s. We were able to take our next downwinder, and then once again force a turn near their goal line and take the upwinder to close out the half with us up 7-5. Second half was mostly uneventful as we traded downwinders. With us up at 9-8, the soft cap goes on. The next couple of points take a while, and thinking the hard cap had gone on during Delmarvelous's downwinder, the game ended with us up at 10-9. There was a bit of a disagreement on whether the hard cap really did go on though since there was no horn (it actually hadn't; there was a miscommunication between me and the TD at the captains meeting in the morning about the hard caps), but eventually the Delmarvelous captain agreed the game was over and we shook hands over The Muff ’n Men win.
Third game of the day is against the seventh seed, Fission. Just as we're about to start with the game (I think we had already flipped at this point), the sectional coordinator and the Delmarvelous captain came over and explained that we enforced the cap incorrectly. The SC said that after we both finish our last round game, we'd have to play to the 11 point soft cap with us starting downwind on O. So, the game was no longer over. And now we start our game against Fission. We start on O and trade points until 3-3 when a a couple of turnovers allow Fission to get the upwind break on us. Didn't help that the wind died down a little bit at this point. We were able to prevent them from getting the immediate downwind break, but then allowed them their upwind O. The wind returned at this point, and they followed with the downwind break, taking a 4-6 lead. We traded to half down 5-7. After half, we continued trading until it was 7-9 when the +2 soft cap went on. After an amazing layout D by Galati, we were able to get an upwind break, closing the gap to 8-9. We followed with the downwind break, tying things up at 9s. At this point, the regional coordinator and the sectional coordinator were discussing things with the Delmarvelous captain. I joined them to find out that the RC stated that since the captains had agreed the game was over, it didn't matter that we had followed the cap rule wrong, and that the final 10-9 score would stand unless both teams wanted to play the game out. As much as I hate winning a game without scoring the last point and prematurely ending a game due to a miscommunication, I also didn't want to risk unnecessary injuries to our players to play points we weren't required to play. As we're debating things, the RC also comments that it doesn't matter if Fission ends up winning the game because Delmarvelous would win the tie breaker between us, them, and Fission since they beat Fission by five. The game was tied up at this point at 10s. Double game point. We're on D with Fission coming downwind. They score, and the game ends with Fission up 10-11. Delmarvelous wins the tie breaker to enter Sunday with a guaranteed finish no lower than 4th and a Regionals bid. Fission and us drop to a round robin with the other pool, carrying over our records against each other ( i.e. we had a one point loss to Fission, they have a one point win against us).
In the other pool, Matt Pippen and Jug Handle each went 3-1, moving them up to the bracket with Amp and Delmarvelous for 1-4. Your Mom and Germ Circus went 2-2, and Lafayette went 0-4. For the purposes of the Sunday pool play, however, Your Mom entered Sunday with a 2-0 record, Germ Circus entered 1-1, and Lafayette entered 0-2. Out of these 5 teams, 2 get bids to regionals. To guarantee a spot, a team needed to be 4-0 or 3-1. Getting a bid with a record of 2-2 in the pool depended on tie breakers which we didn't want to consider at that point. Shooting for going 3-1, we had to win all three of our games on Sunday.
With the wind quite a bit calmer on Sunday morning, but still affecting things, we began our first game against Germ Circus by giving up an upwind break and then allowed them to get an easy downwind break (easy because we dropped the pull -- ugh). We then traded a couple, but things started to get a bit testy on the field and that may have got into our head a little bit. The call disputes continued getting worse to the point where I found the sectional coordinator to see if there happened to be observers around, but none were available. Although we did start playing better later on, it didn't seem to affect much. We ended half at 3-7 and finished the game 7-11.
At this point, the team was asking me whether there was still any chance for us to make regionals. After finding out that Fission beat Your Mom by 3 (12-9), I did some quick calculations. We required Fission to beat Germ Circus so that we can end in a three way tie that has to go to point differential for the 6th bid with Your Mom and Germ Circus. And, we had to beat Your Mom by 7 to win the point differential. So, it was still possible.
We came out firing. I don't know whether Fission's victory over Your Mom broke their will to play anymore or whether they just couldn't keep up with our incredible aggressiveness and athleticism, but they stood no chance. We won 13-4. Meanwhile Fission beat Lafayette, which guaranteed their spot at regionals and the last round determined our fate. While our game against Lafayette was a mostly uneventful* win, we also needed Fission to win their game. Despite pleadings with them to play hard to get the higher finish (5th instead of 6th), the score made it seem like they just didn't give it their all since they already had a guaranteed bid. They got crushed 13-4 and the only chance we'd see regionals would be if a bunch of teams dropped.
Now, the interesting part about the 9/6 tourney format, where your records against the teams that move up to the 1-4 bracket are dropped for the 5-9 pool, is that it seems like we could have had a better finish had we been blown out (losing by 10+ points) instead of losing on universe to Fission. If that had happened, the tie breaks would have Fission with +5 (or more), Delmarvelous with +4, and The Muff ’n Men at -9 (or less), putting Fission in the top four instead of Delmarvelous. The big difference here is that The Muff ’n Men would have entered the 5-9 pool play with a 1-0 record (win against Delmarvelous) instead of a 0-1 record (loss against Fission). There's no telling how Delmarvelous would have done against Your Mom, Germ Circus, and Lafayette, but examining each case and assuming the same Sunday results for The Muff ’n Men, it doesn't matter whether they won all their games or lost all their games; we'd end up finishing 5th or 6th in the section.
But alas, we really should have won against Fission in the first place to secure our bid to regionals. It also exposed a few weaknesses that we think can be corrected for 2008.
* The most interesting part of the Lafayette game, at least for me, was seeing that we only had six players on the line and rather than call in some other guy, I put myself in for my first point of the tournament. A few great cuts, a couple touches on the disc, and then wham! I was on the ground with a turned ankle. I stared up at the sky for a second and thought, "You gotta be kidding me!" I know I'm injury prone, but I hadn't even played a full point yet! Then again, I hadn't stretched and wasn't really warmed up. I'm about to hop up and continue playing (it was only a minor sprain), when I hear someone call "injury" for me. "What? Who's injured? Not me! I didn't call injury! Ok, ok, I guess I did kinda injured myself." And off the field I went. Ok, maybe not that interesting of a story...

Entered tournament seeded 19th out of 32 teams, placing us in a tough pool with the 8th and 9th seed, along with a new, unknown team seeded at 30th (well below where they should have been).
Saturday weather: Hot. Very Hot (may have hit 90). Overcast to start the day, but full sun by the end.
Our first game against the 8th seed, Bashing Piñatas, who eventually finished 5th in the tournament, had a lopsided first half with them going up 8-1. Geoff Atkinson tweaked a hamstring towards the end of the half and was out the rest of the game. In the second half, we started playing better, although they probably weren't trying as hard. Shortly into the second half though, we lost John Montoya to some type of foot/ankle injury, leaving us with just 6 guys. Still, we outscored them 8-7 in the second half for a final score of 9-15.
Our second game was against the 9th seed, Chinstrap, who eventually finished 7th in the tournament. They didn't let up the entire game. Half at 3-8, final score 4-15. Geoff Atkinson came back for some O points, but John was still out.
Our last pool play game was against the 30th seeded Sketchy. It didn't take long to realize that they were grossly under-seeded (somewhat expected with a brand new team with no other tournament results to compare). John gave a try at a couple D points, but that was about all he could muster with the pain in his ankle. We fought hard to an 8-5 first half lead. In the second, they broke our offense a few times and our defense wasn't able to get any return breaks. Final score 13-15.
After the pool play, our crossover game was against previously played Chebarushka. First half had a few breaks on both sides, but the score never differed by more than one. They finished the half up one break at 7-8. Early in the second half, they got a couple more breaks. We really didn't want to lose this game though and we buckled down, taking advantage of their inexperienced women to take 5 of the last 6 points of the game to close out with the win. Final score 14-12.
Sunday weather: Cold and overcast (maybe low 60s?), with some misting and light rain later in the day. Moderate wind for the first couple games, then somewhat of a cross field breeze for the third.
On Sunday morning, we arrived at the fields considerably later than we should have. When the first group arrived, the other team, Gratuitous, was already split in two groups doing go-to drills spread across the field. And we were a bit slow and still feeling the pain from Saturday (neither Geoff nor John played in this game). Their small army with many subs may have been a little intimidating early in the game, allowing them to take a 3-6 and then 4-7 lead, but we battled back to take the last four points of the half. We continued our domination in the first four points of the second half. With the cap on, they managed to scrape by a couple more points before we finished off the game. Final score 13-9.
Our second game on Sunday was against Big Red Death Machine who we also previously played at [[Bell Crack|2007 Bell Crack]]. We started really slow and unable to convert on O. They took a 1-6 lead. We were able to take 4 of the next 6 to end the half at 5-8, but we couldn't finish things off in the second half. AP spent some time injured in the game (I think caused by Red), Geoff spent most of his time on the sideline (but played a bit), and John couldn't play at all, so fatigue probably came into play a little bit.
Our loss to BRDM meant we had to walk about a mile or so to get to another field for our third game of the day against White Rhino. The weather turned a bit misty and after staying neck and neck for the early part of the game, they pulled out ahead for a 4-8 half time lead. We got things together in the second half (including an actual dump-swing for a score), but weren't able to collect the points fast enough before the cap went on. The result may have been different had we not started so late due to the long trek, but we still should have played better early in the first half. Final score: 9-11.
We then moved one field over to play Vitamin I. While flipping, they called "flip for the game" and actually won the flip, but we wouldn't have anything of the sort. They said they were too broken and tired to play another game and thus forfeited to us. Despite not having many subs through the weekend and a number of injuries ourselves, some of us still wanted to find another team to scrimmage against to get a fourth game in, but we eventually decided to pack it in and go find an early dinner before Brandon and John needed to head to the airport for their evening flight. It's a good thing we did too since about 5 minutes after we actually left the fields it started downpouring. As in, needing to slow the cars down to about 30mph on the highway 'cause you couldn't see very far in front of you. Ok, maybe that's a bit exaggerated, but still. By the time we found the Friendy's we were looking for, the rain had pretty much completely stopped.

Representin the ~P-G-H,
Hurry up, you best equate
My team with our sick grabs and breaks,
aint finishin Brandon’s colossal of steak.
How do you get to Ses-me street
where the letter’s always layout D,
brought to you by dave galati
can’t be duplicated on Nintendo wii
put on SPF 50, skins too fair
Red’s poached, he goes through midair
plays D like a transforming bear,
Do you care,
Bout the muff n’ men game
We aint livin on no drury lane,
We run by M. smith, the core, the brain
And bliss, the cougar is the name
Given to her
Finger bent, getta protractor
Speaking of math,
Katie plus tequila equals naked pool bath
Andy’s right after her, just as fast,
If you ride in Fish car you don’t have to buy gas.
Geoff runs so fast,
Can he fly
~TKs moustache like that monopoly guy
collectin 200 dollas everytime
Passin go,
Nernberg noticed my short line railroad.
Oh look Rachel throws a score again,
how many balls were on the table, shut up mcgettigan
and do anything by the dashboard light,
Lez and fish would do anything by Montoya’s porch light
We were in tents, Fish pitchin his own that night
Cincci’s still funny even after awhile
No surprise, LP’s playin with a smile.
Troup plays out of this world, an X file.
Noelle like tony the tiger is great,
I hope to escape
A mofia fate
Oh wait,
what’s the ace of spades do
How dare you
It a mystery like the game of clue,
Colonel mustard, in the hall with the candlestick
Or was it mrs. white with galati’s ball on a stick
Josh’s skies are sick
in the tree top
Maria is cocky, get her a tank top
But she never fails, plays huge though she’s smalla
She’s got four quarters if you needs a dolla
We need the sidelines to holla
Count to ten that’s a stalla
No one plays D like jen bakala
I love that we are men with muff
But do you have the stuff
I don’t think your muff enough

Write-up by Michael:
<<<
It was hot. Really, really hot. And humid. Both days. Occasionally there was a breeze. It didn't help to cool things down though.
In our first game against Chinstrap, the offenses on both sides of the disc were pretty sloppy. Almost every other point was a break for the entire game with plenty of lead changes. Tied at 1s, 2s, 3s, 4s, and 6s, but we took the first half 8-6 and came out with another break to start the second to go up 9-6. They battled back to bring things to 10s, but we took the last two to close things out at 12-10. Chinstrap beat us [[last year at Easterns|2007 Mixed Easterns Results]] 4-15 in a match-up that [[I didn't really think was close|2007 Mixed Easterns Write-up (Michael)]], so starting out the tournament with the 12-10 win against them was a great to give us some confidence that we were a greatly improved team over last year (as if our performance at [[Bell Crack|2008 Bell Crack]] wasn't enough).
In our next game, we played the Canadian team, Gecko. This game was incredibly fun, although our performance left something to be desired. They had an incredibly efficient dump-swing offense that we were unable to slow down. We managed to get the disc on D only twice in the game, but were not able to convert on any breaks. We were able to get the disc back a number of times after turning it on O, but for the most part, a turn on our part was a score for them. They won 5-15.
Our final pool play game was against JHOP, where the outcome of the game wasn't ever really in doubt. I even managed to entrust the stats sheet to someone else so I could put myself into the game for the last point of the first half. Of course, that turns into an "ISO Michael" with everyone trying to force the disc to me which usually results in some sloppy play (making a throw to me that shouldn't have been made), but the only turn on that point was when I dropped a beautiful break throw from Red in the end zone. Luckily, we got a D and I ended up getting the disc again in the endzone to close out half 8-2. I played three more points in the second half without injuring myself (to the surprise of many) and we finished the game winning 15-4.
At this point, we wondered over to the next field to watch the final points of the Gecko vs. Chinstrap game. It's outcome would determine whether we were second or third in our pool. Most of us were rooting for Gecko so that we would finish 2nd in the pool. Some were rooting for Gecko so we'd get our crossover game against Big Red Death Machine (apparently, our 15-11 win at [[Bell Crack this year|2008 Bell Crack Results]] wasn't enough to avenge our 3 losses to them last year at [[Bell Crack|2007 Bell Crack Results]], [[Mixed Easterns|2007 Mixed Easterns Results]], and [[Sportsfest|2007 Lehigh Valley Sportsfest Results]]). The rest of us didn't care or wouldn't have minded playing a new team (no sense flying to a tournament to play the same teams you can play at closer tourneys!). Anyway, while watching the game, there was discussion about inviting Gecko to party with us on Saturday night, but the planning for that fell through when they ended up losing the game causing us to end up third in the pool after the tie breakers.
Our crossover game started really late because the Gecko-Chinstrap game went well past the start of the next round. We were playing Monster whom BRDM had characterized as having about the same play-level as them. We took half 8-3 and closed things out 13-6.
The 3-1 finish on Saturday had us entered into the Sunday bracket as the 16th seed in the championship bracket. That had us matched up against Saper Family Cruise which we later found out was made up mostly of Tandem players (finished 8th at Nationals last year) plus a few try-outs. We went down 0-3 to start the game, but generally played very well after that, getting a couple breaks back to tie things up at 5s. The first half ended with us down 5-8 though. In the second, we played well early to recover one of those breaks, but we couldn't hold out through the end with them taking the last five to win the game 8-15. While the scores may not reflect it, it really seemed like we were running with them and had chances for the game to have been closer. There was no doubt they were the better team though.
Our loss moved us down to the 9th place bracket where we were matched up against Vitamin I, playing on a field well away from the main set of fields. They were considerably more athletic than I remember them from last year at [[Bell Crack|2007 Bell Crack]], and we didn't seem to find the firepower in the incredible heat to slow them down. We ended up losing 6-13. This field, the same one where we lost -- and shouldn't have -- to White Rhino [[last year|2007 Mixed Easterns Results]], has notbeen kind to us. Immediately after the game, however, Vitamin I said they were going home, bailing on their last two scheduled games of the day. The team we were supposed to play at that point also felt like bailing, so after some discussion with the three other teams involved and the TD, we took Vitamin I's spot and moved on in the 9th place bracket.
After a long game of flutter during the mid-day bye, we matched up against Mogwai to see who would be playing in the 9th place game against Slow White-X (apparently, the other side of the bracket had teams drop as well so they already knew they were in). We took the first break of the game to go up 2-1, and continued with a couple more to go up 5-3 and then 7-4, although they recovered one of those breaks before we closed out the first half 8-6. They broke us to open the second half but didn't give up another for the rest of the game. With one other break on our side, we finished off with a 15-12 win.
We started our last game against Slow White-X a little early and agreed to shorten the game and play only to 11. We gave up a break to go down 1-3, but immediately took it back, tying things back up at 3s. We stayed on serve for the rest of the first half. At half time, we lost three players, two of which were starters, due to an "early" flight (we weren't really expecting games to be scheduled until 6:30pm!). The second half didn't go as well as the first, losing the game 7-11. But really, this is Slow White. They finished 2nd at the Club Championships last year.
Overall, a pretty solid performance for us in our second tournament of our second year as a team.

The tournament director posted a write-up on the tournament on RSD. Head on over to Google Groups to [[read the full write-up|http://groups.google.com/group/rec.sport.disc/browse_thread/thread/c13ef9cdae4ab986]]. Alternatively, here are excerpts related to The Muff 'n Men (spelling and grammatical errors are from the original):
Re: Pool A on Satuday
<<<
The other big game of this pool was to be Muff n’ Men (Pittsburgh) vs. Hybrid (Ann Arbor). These two teams are both very good and have never faced each other. It seems that since this is Muff n’ Men’s third tournament of the year that extra experience was enough and beat Hybrid 11-9.
<<<
Re: Quarter finals
<<<
Muff n’ Men faced off against Prion (Champaign) in the last quarter who picked up Tania Reitz, who was a star for the Illinois womens team who just got off a trip to nationals. Muff n’ Men after a late night were ready to play and won 14-8.
<<<
Re: Semi-finals
<<<
The Abusement Park vs. Muff n’ Men was the other semi. I will say more about these two teams and the party a bit later. These two teams came out with a bunch of intensity. With the strong wind, both teams played zone and hucks went up as usual to save field position. Muff n’ Men started the game off strong by getting the D and score to go up 1-0. The teams traded and it was 2-1 M n’ M. Something then sparked in Park again and continued to roll of score after score to take have 8-2. Park didn’t falter at half and scored the first two of the half before M n’ M got one back to make it 10-3. M n’ M got 2 of the next three and it was 11-5 park. Park amped it up the rest of the game and ended it 15-5. Very strong showing for Park against of very good Pittsburgh team. If it weren’t for the strong wind this game would have been very different.
<<<
Re: Saturday night tournament party
<<<
After a long night and 3 ½ kegs. The music was still loud and I looked around at a room that was trashed and I saw one team remaining that was dancing their asses off to Michael Jackson. That team was Muff n’ Men from Pittsburgh, the winners of
the party for sure!!! They didn’t just have one or two remaining people they had 10-15 people still partying it up. Great work Muff n’ Men.

The Muff ’n Men logo was a result of the creativity of Laura Perkins. Her sketch was provided to [[Five Ultimate|http://www.fiveultimate.com]] who cleaned it up and vectorized to create an appropriate graphic for printing on our [[jerseys|Our Jerseys]]. The logo now also adorns some [[discs|Team Discs]]!

}
1) Create two tiddlers like these one (same name and content):
[[SEOTiddlyWikiPlugin]] [[SEOTiddlyWikiConfig]]
NB: double-clic on each tiddler to get edit mode and copy-paste their content.
2) Fill in shadow tiddlers SiteUrl, SiteTitle and SiteSubtitle.
3) Edit this tiddler and see the code behind the following link to understand how to launch the process, once the plugin installed: <html><a href="javascript:generateSEOFiles();">Generate SEO files</a></html>.
4) See http://www.google.com/webmasters/sitemaps/ to register your sitemap.xml file.
Tips
1) Feel free to modify html template [[SEOTiddlyWikiConfig]].
2) Use tag //excludeSearch// to disallow the export of a tiddler.
Limitation
If you remove a tiddler after an export, you have to manually remove the corresponding html file.
