Have you ever wondered why frisbee isn't broadcast on ESPN? Why don't frisbee players get the SportsCenter attention that Manning, Kobe, and Pujols receive? Answer: There isn't one.
However, there is good news. For those disc heads out there who have been waiting and waiting for ultimate frisbee to make the big screen, it's coming. Well, at least to your computer. NexGen Network just met a funding goal that will allow them to broadcast some major games (complete with milti-angle camera shots, expert commentary, and instant replay). They will stream the Stanford Invite and the College Centex on their website. Wanna see what they're up to? Check 'em out at NexGen Network's website.
This is a huge step in the ultimate world worthy of some celebration. Look out world. We'll be on the map one day. One day soon.
It is ultimate frisbee in its purest form: the people, the events, the tools, the emotions, the meaning, the mentality, and the method. Everything you wanted to know about the game and how it goes down in the Ultimate world. It's called Ultimate for a reason...
