Some Links on Wednesday

Sport Link
Tennis: a sport with many similarities to ultimate. Here are the BBC write-ups on the spectacular performances at Wimbldon last weekend. Fed is still my favourite.
Mens Final (Federer vs Nadal)
Womans Final (V Williams vs S Williams)

The Physics of Frisbee
Here's a link to a scientific paper on the physics of a frisbee in flight. http://web.mit.edu/womens-ult/www/smite/frisbee_physics.pdf
Fairly interesting stuff... if you're into that sort of thing.

Fitness
I'm embarrassingly out of shape at the mo.
Here are some inspiring conditioning tips on the huddle.

Hooray, you started posting again!

I enjoy that the photo of Frank to which you linked is in the Potlatch gallery with photos of DarkHorse, taken by a member of DarkHorse (Michael Prude). Small world, Brickers.

And, finally, I'm going to keep on saying this to all of you: Laywatch/Flump/someteam needs to come stateside for a tournament.

Hey Man! I saw a comment of yours on Match's site and knew Brickers had to be you. Cool to see you writing about the game, I look forward to keeping up with it. Hope things are going well overseas, and that you're getting pumped for next season.

Cheers,
TJ
