The people who founded the sport were hippies - good riddance and bring on
the TV cameras!

Subject: Ultimate Directions: Do we care about our routes?
The founders of our beautiful game had a vision: a new sport that was
not like traditional sports. Do we reject everything from our culture,
because the time it was written in has gone out of fashion? People who
believed more in that culture have left the sport, they don't like the
conflict and yes to a certain extent it is their fault that they haven't
propagated their vision.
Incidently, I do call fowls when I see them, and as anybody who has ever
played in my team will tell you I am as committed in a game as you will
find any ultimate player to be. I also love the high of competitive
ultimate, the passion, the pain, the freedom of expression, the fight,
and even the social tension. Its what makes us human! Sport is life on
fast forward.
I think we as a community need to be more introspective. Even if we did
want to be on TV then who is going to be interested in a wannabee sport.
