Recovering

1. Metro*
2. Barrio*
3. 7 Figures
4. BCBC

I'm having some serious post-tournament blues today. Everyday life is seems boring compared to the series. My body is sore like I haven't been sore in a long time.

I'm really happy for Metro taking the region in our own backyard. It's good to see all their hard work paying off in the end. I actually didn't get to see them play at all this weekend, but from far away I could see their big receivers making some huge grabs.

I'm having mixed feelings about the results of our season. I feel like we probably did about as well as we should have, all things considered. On the other hand, things could have been different if we had not had some key injuries and if we had put our team together with a little more organization. That's kind of the nature of the beast, though.

A pretty good measure of an ultimate player is how fun a he or she is to play with. Players that flow well, make big plays, and make you look good are awesome teammates. By that measure, BCBC has some of my favorite teammates that I've ever played with. I would be very tempted to come back to the team just to play with some teammates that are crazy ballers. I doubt that any team (that cared about winning) had as much fun off the field as we did this year, too.

I had a great time during my very short club season and I'm pretty bummed that it's over. BCBC was basically what I wanted out of this summer. We had copious amounts of fun and played some good ultimate, too. In the end, the wins and losses will be buried in score reporter, but my friends and memories will stay with me.

Still, another regionals has gone by and I'm again on the outside looking in.
