Is it possible to just give Vapor trails the victory. That way they do not have to drive to Milo just to find out a bunch of a-holes did not sow up.

Hey big winds helped end the three peat!!! Well it will be a good championship, last time we played it came down to the strokes. Plan on it being windy we will bring the wind to Milo. Told you not to count the winds out.

Susie Sunshine · #4 February 9th, 2009, 09:35 AM

Good times yesterday! Way to go, Vapor Trails, for kicking ass in the afternoon!!

Hey - we get to play Good, Bad, and Sassy now!

Sam · #5 February 9th, 2009, 10:01 AM

Yay! Awesome! One team can't bother to show up in any numbers and Big Winds gets to go to the Championships! YAY!

I hope that next year, teams that have shown poor representation at this year's events - and I can only think of one team that consistently failed to represent - are turned away. Nothing personal... just sucks that the season was determined by one team's delinquence.

Thank you Sam. Those words sum up my team's thoughts on this matter perfectly. We did nearly everything we could to win the division--seemingly for nothing.

Ok, I'm done whining. I'm super proud of how my team swept the second round. You guys kick ass and deserve to be playing for 1st in the finals in my book. Well done.

.

Thanks again to Jordan for putting on the best reason to play disc golf in the cold for another awesome season. We owe you big time!

This coming from the guy who couldn't bother to get out of bed and show up before noon.

Kevin Madrid · #9 February 9th, 2009, 10:46 AM

Jevon
Your missing the point. He showed up!

THIS GBP feels the same as to what Sam stated. And probably everyone else on my team will agree with that as well. If you don't show up to play you don't deserve to play the following year.

How many times did AC have 7 players...6 players... ok how about 5 players? Then after morning round how many AC were there still to play 4...NO. How about 3..NO probably just 2 will stay

That is not TEAM GOLF.

jevon · #10 February 9th, 2009, 10:57 AM

I will agree with the statement that our team does not deserve a spot for next year, due to our attendance this season. I was more referring to his point of rolling out a red carpet for BW to roll into the finals. This is a SEASON, not a one day tourney...

The only weeks we did not represent well were Milo, Timber, and Trojan.

Sam · #11 February 9th, 2009, 11:09 AM

Yes, but how many matches did you not show up for in any numbers? You were all there against us and beat us. You had a poor showing versus at least two of the three teams that beat us - one at Milo where the excuses were plentiful and one yesterday where I have seen no excuses, just a vacuum where a team was supposed to have been.

So, yeah... your team's CONSISTENT lack of attendance hurt our team and other teams. Had it been a one day tourney, your team's poor attendance probably would not have affected us at all.

As for my attendance, our team got the seven member bonus point yesterday. Did you guys get the seven member bonus ever this season? Oh wait... you did against us, I believe. Just awesome.

jevon · #12 February 9th, 2009, 11:26 AM

We lost to GBP by 8, and BW by 10. WSS won by 5. YOU guys BEAT us by 3, VT beat us by 3. Where are these big numbers you speak of? How many times did you get the 7th man point?

I didn't realize that you were the excuses police. We had people out of town in a National competition. They thought that was more important than disc golf. I hereby remove the Assholes from consideration for next years team selection.

Celeste · #13 February 9th, 2009, 11:38 AM

kudos to you Jevon for showing up when you know your team has no shot, mostly because of lack of numbers. It happened on my team last year too.
This year I cared more about team attendance than the wins. Our whole team I think felt that way and we had a warm fuzzy team feeling all season.
It does suck that final standings came down to attendance, but that's part of the TEAM challenge. I think you're talking ish to the wrong guy though (the one who showed up).

Yep, Yep, I was in the same boat as Celeste last year. Maybe more so! Anyway it was soooooooooooooo cool to be wiith D&D this year. We may not of won as many matches as we would have liked but I can guarandamnteeya we had one hell of a time losing.

We beat you by 3 and you lost to GBP by 8. That is 11. We beat you by 3 and you lost to BW by 10. That is 13. Either of these numbers do for that big number I was speaking of. Had you guys shown up and actually played against either of those teams, we would be playing for the championship, I believe.

Quote:

I think every time but the time we played you, actually. That means we had 6 for 1 event and 7 for 6 events. I believe that that is how it should be for ALL teams.

Yeah... the only issue I have with that is that all of the teams knew the schedule beforehand and if it was clear you guys were going to have so many conflicts, you should not have taken a spot from a different team that might have actually showed up.

Well... you don't have to be THAT way about it... but thank you. I, for one, appreciate you recognizing that your team did a poor job of showing up - regardless of the excuse.

Hopefully next years' finals will not be determined by a team not showing up so many times and the best team will win - not just the team that got the benefit of playing a team that didn't show up.

karlvelaman · #16 February 9th, 2009, 12:23 PM

Let's not drag our victory through the mud TOO much, please. Thanks.

So, we took a lot of points from AC, but remember: there were 6 points that AC could have taken from us had they won the match-ups. They didn't. They took 1 point. We got the other 5. Oh yeah, plus our "free" points. But hey, who's counting?

... Didn't we win some other rounds too? That's right. To GBP I believe (8/3) as well as to a couple others during the season.

Oh yeah, and we'll bring it for the last-dance at Milo.

It's been fun everyone. Looking forward to many more years worth of Team Disc! Thanks for everything everyone, especially Jordan.

Ciao for now,
Karlito

Hi everyone:

I wish that this hadn't ended this way. I enjoyed Team Golf and liked very much the rounds I played with some of you. My sincere apologies to everyone who feels as though our team ruined their chance to play in the finals (however attenuated that chance may have been).

See you at Milo,

Erik

jevon · #18 February 9th, 2009, 12:25 PM

It's always about YOU, isn't it Sam? Maybe if YOU would have played better YOU could use that argument. As it stands, if we could have won 4 more points from BW it would be WSS in the finals, not YOU. If YOU would have done better all season long, YOU wouldn't have to rely on other teams to get YOU in the finals...

Sam · #19 February 9th, 2009, 12:50 PM

Jevon, your teams' lack of attendance wasn't the whole shebang, no... but are you seriously sitting here and trying to say that your teams' attendance DIDN'T affect the outcome or negatively impact our team and others?

And... about me? Pretty cheap, Jevon. I think I have made it pretty clear that this is about you guys and not about me. Yes, it might have been WSS or it might have been GBP or it might have still been Big Winds... but the truth of the matter is that we will never know for sure, now, will we?

Honestly, had it been me and my team that did this, I would be abashed and apologetic and not try to make more excuses or deflect from the issue being discussed.

I don't mean to be a dick about this Jevon, and I apologize if I am coming across as one. It should be clear that while I am - per usual - the most vocal about this subject, I am clearly not alone in stating that this bothered me as members from each of the teams affected by this have stated their angst, as well.

Sean Phillips · #20 February 9th, 2009, 01:06 PM

Team AC pretty much ruined my life.

See you all at the championships!!
