Damn, what a nice evening for ultimate!  Anyway, Gold was eagerly
anticipating this rematch and really wanted to jump out to an early lead. 
Unfortunately, Green would not comply and the two teams basically traded
points until 5-5.  Gold finally managed to string a few consecutive points
together to take half at 9-6.

The second half started out like the first half, and both teams started
occasionally mixing in some zone defense.  Last time these teams played and
Gold threw a zone, Green would basically just toss the disc around for 10
minutes without turning it over --- much to the frustration of Gold --- and
eventually wind up in the end zone.  This time Gold's zone was a little more
effective.  But Green ran hard on D and made great cuts when they were
manned up, and managed to keep it close up to 11-9.  After that, Gold went
on a 6-2 run to close things out.

Highlights included the usual 2 or 3 Vet to Petros hucks, and Eric Weis
macking a D'ed disc with his head.  Also, thanks to Josh of Green for coming
through with the instant ice pack (again) to help an injured player.

Oh yeah, the cheers....  Well, Gold did one of the lamest cheers in history,
and Green countered with one of the best cheers we've heard all year.  All
in all, a fun evening.

The rain earlier in the day and the heavy highway traffic made for low numbers

the first half was played with 6 men and 1 woman on the field.

Craisin started hot and converted many of the Naked turnovers into goals and

The second half was one of trading points and small runs.  This half was much

both teams followed.


Gold 17
Sky 11

Did anyone notice that it was so humid that the disc got wet just flying
through the air?  Anyway, both teams were a little shorthanded at the start
of the game.  Sky was without Mike  S. and Eric M, and Gold was without June
(who arrived midway through the second half), Ryan W, and Sarah.  In fact,
Gold's women were savage for the first two-thirds of the game.

Gold got off to a quick start opening up a 5-1 or maybe even 6-1 lead. 
Despite having no women subs, both Kira and Cate-o were big on both sides of
the disc.  Especially Kira.. during a couple of stretches of the game, all
of Gold's offense went through her.  It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say
that she scored 50% of Gold's points.

Anyway, the score was 9-5 at half.  The second half featured a lot more zone
defense.  There wasn't a lot of wind, but the slippery conditions made
handling a little more treacherous than usual.  The start of the half
featured at least 3 consecutive scores by (who else) Kira.

There were a couple of other highlights that featured people other than
Kira.  Chip of Sky made a great layout catch for a score.  The disc was a
little low and Chad of Gold had a great read on it and layed out, but some
how the disc squeezed through to Chip who bobbled it but made a great second
effort while lying on the ground to complete the pass.  Jeff of Gold also
made a great effort to hold on to a macked hammer in particularly slippery
conditions.  Once again, there was much bobbling, but Jeff kept his
concentration to hold on to the disc.

In the end, Gold went on to win 17-11.  The final point was an incredibly
long point where Sky threw a zone and forced Gold to make like a jillion
passes.  But Gold stayed patient, didn't turn it over, and finally managed
to zip a forehand into Paul for the win.

Ok, on to the cheers.  Does anyone do better cheers than Sky?  They should
consider marketing their talents to other teams.  Gold cheered first to the
tune of "purple haze" (cause it was hazy, get it?).  By Gold's standards it
was a pretty good cheer, but we were once again put in our place by Sky, who
not only write great cheers, but sing all harmoniously and stuff.  They sang
to the tune of some Sting song that I don't know the title of.
