Sarasota yeeeeaw

We made it! We flew in to Tampa on the red-eye this morning from Seattle, and a bit of luggage and rent-a-car hassle later, we made the drive down to Siesta Key. Next few days include a bit of prep before games start on Thursday, but I'm so psyched to be here that it's hard to complain about anything at this point. Psyched to see old friends, some hot games, and just to hang out at our booth chatting with peeps (X and V went out and bought three used couches today, so we'll be rockin those in the shade of our tent). Natties, here we come!

Copy Cat?

Aman Nalavade, who are you?

You're messing with our program, and you might want to look in to developing a second facial expression while you're skying the bejeezus out of someone. We recommend Blue Steel.

For those of you who don't know Aman, go ahead and click on the "Ambient" wrip-out on our website, http://www.fiveultimate.com/, and you'll find him goin' up big over some sucker at this year's Youth Club Championships. Aman played for Philly's SEPDA, and rocked a solid 2 goals in the Mixed final against Atlanta.

Unfortunately, you can also find Aman on the cover of this Fall's UPA "Ultimate News", in a very similar picture skying somebody facial-expression-and-all at YCC '07.

The only practical difference between the two shots is the color of his shirt. Nevertheless, we're not copy-cats. It's a coincidence.

And Aman - well played, my friend.
