EOS and Summer League Final Thoughts

Congratulations to Mustachio for winning the End of Season tournament! Mustachio took the final game, 6-3 over Grite to win the championship.





















Though weather was apparently unfortunate, I think we can all agree that this year's tournaments were both successes.

Congratulations to Token for taking the Season Champions title!

Congrats to all teams for having an awesome, fun, successful summer league. Thank you all for your spirit and for making BUDA the great organization that it is.

A major thanks to Cory Casella for his work commissioning this year. Those will be hard shoes to fill next year! Thanks to all the BUDA officers and captains for their help and dedication. For everyone who volunteered, thanks for making this season run so smoothly. From finding fields to getting kegs, food, making schedules, drafting players, and setting up cones, every little bit helped.




Cheers to everyone, and stay tuned for information about Winter League. Look for sign-up notices in late October. And as always, open play will still carry on every Sunday at 2:00 PM.


Ultimate!

Updated standings: Thanks to Chad Blackmon for pointing out the mistake.

Week 8 (real):


Week 7 (real):


All MVP votes still stand and only a couple of teams were affected by the mistake. Sorry for any confusion!

Week 8 Standings

We have a new leader as of Week 8. Mustachio Pistachio comes from 3rd to bump off Brian's Fire in the Regular Season Standings. This is the first week that Brian's Fire has NOT been in first place.

Other notables:

Sweet Pink made a huge jump from last week putting themselves right outside of the top 8 teams.

Token has made it 8 straight games without a loss

Grite remains unbeaten since before the MidSummer Tournament.

Toxic Sushi finally claws its way out of last place.

Sparkle Motion snaps a multi-week losing streak

Orchid Orgasm wins both it's games in a week for the first time since Week 1.

The Red Rockets are by far the most stylish team in the league, sporting hats designed by yours truly. If you haven't seent them yet, I will make sure I turn mine backwards before we play your team. That way you can get a good look at it while you are chasing me to the disc.

Giang's own daughter betrayed he and Kirstin by cheering for the super stylish Sweet Pink team. And you guys were mad at me for picking that color out? Come on.

This week, the competition was stiff for MVP, but after hearing the story, this week's MVP has to go to Lauren Tong, slasher of familial ties and recoginizer of superior style. Originally brought to the field to cheer on her parents' team of Giang's Last Stand, little Lauren became enamored with the Sweet Pink Delicious jerseys and switched her alliance. Giang and Kirstin, unable to cope, ended up losing the game 11-4, and contributed to Sweet Pink's meteoric rise up the leaderboard from 12th to 9th place.

Congratulations Lauren. Something tells me you might not be invited to join your parents for EOS, so if you're reading this, follow your heart and never listen to what your parents tell you.

EDIT: due to a captain (DENNIS) submitting late MVP Votes, they were not included. Those not pictured: Austin Guthrie, Jimbo Tucker, and Kate Gaston.

EDIT 2: Due to my being an idiot, I forgot to submit my own teams MVP nominations: Sammy Raviv, Tyler Lewis and Jason Yearout

Week 7 Standings

Sorry for the delay. Week 7 standings...




Congrats to Chris Acree, Week 7's MVP!

Summer League Week 6 Standings AND a Correction

Due to a slight flub on my part, the Season Point Differentials were a little off for the Week 5 Standings. They have been corrected.

Also, in Week 6, I have gone into a little more depth with the analysis of teams, highlighting (read spoonfeeding) for you the teams with the best weekly offense, defense, and point differential, AS WELL AS the teams with the best seson offense, defense and point differentials.

As you can see, Brian's Fire took a slight hit, losing both games this week. they are still number 1, but Mustachio Pistachio is nipping at their heels.

At the bottom, Toxic Sushi commands the dredges of Summer League, capturing all three titles for WORST season point diff, points scored AND points scored against. Ouch.

At the bottom for the week, Sparkle Motion continues to slip down the leaderboard, with two more losses this week. I can just hear Paul Dorsey screaming "I just don't think you are dedicated to Sparkle Motion!" (Donnie Darko reference, for those of you who dont know)

In other news, The Red Rockets jumped 4 spots on the leaderboard with two wins this past week. Red Rockeeeeeeeetttsss!

MVP of the week: Brian Terrell

Honorable Mention: Nate Schmidt

Best Couple to both be voted for MVP in the same week: Cory and Megan

Now the best couple must be going on their date. Gotta shower!
