Well let's see...
I guess I won't bother posting about Centex and Easterns, since everyone seems to have covered the bases on that. I will say that I'm feeling really good about how we've been ramping up leading into the Series. We may have started a little slow, but I'm confident from our performance recently and from the rising quality of our practices that we're going to be jumping, jiving, and wailing come swingtime.
TallE started counting tournaments so I started reminiscing a bit too, and despite what I counted in the ride back from Easterns, I've played in 20 states (well, one was a province). The list is: Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Missouri, Louisiana, Oregon, Illinois, Ohio, Texas, and Ontario. I've won tournaments in eight of those. Some were high school though, and I guess those don't really count.
Kinda wish I'd thought to write everything down as it happened to me. There's a whole lot of tournaments that will probably fall by the wayside of my hole-ridden memory. Ah well. Maybe I'll try to recollect em, and if I can remember enough I'll put em up here.

As I've watchec TallE and others compile stats about total tournaments, I've thought the same thing about writing things down. However, I didn't. I've tried with the webpage to get stuff down for everyone, but other people couldn't fill in all the gaps. Such is life.
I think getting bogged down in details can dilute the experience - say if you are so worried about stats you forget to enjoy the game. I do love stats, but I'll take the feel of the experience more than anything else. I mean, if I was looking at stats, I might not be an avid follower of sabah because there were some rough years in there :)

Not even thinking as much about stats, just a record of where I've played and who with. We were trying to piece together how many different states Sabah had taken each of us, personally, and then also how many ultimate had taken us to individually, and I forgot a bunch.
Personally, I'm pretty anti-stats because so far I haven't found a stat-taking method that actually tells the story. But tournaments played/won and miles travelled and states/cities visited and number of teams (or even people... whoa) are fun trivias.

Not to be a pain, but who you've played with, where, and how many games are stats. They aren't individual game stats, they are career stats and that is what I was referring to up there.
Good luck this weekend. I wish I was there to see the domination, Brody
