It seemed pointless to put her on the top seven list when she's been on that list before and virtually everyone would put her there. The same goes for Anne Mercier and Emily Baecher. I didn't want to repeat what most followers of the division already know. That would be dull and limit exposure for the division. <br /><br />As for Courtney, I like her game and her attitude. She won the Callahan last year. I don't think you can say much more when you've already won the Callahan. That said, I do sincerely believe that there are several outstanding women who deserve to be on the Starting Seven as much as she does (if not more). <br /><br />FYI, I did watch BD at Nationals last year (vs. Texas, UW, UCSB and Oregon), and we (USC) played them at Centex this year. I've also gotten the chance to see every top team in the division this year (except Michigan). No disrespect to Wisconsin meant as I think they are one of the top three teams in the division.FJRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08415502639804775422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17185944.post-71598703878958250922009-04-06T11:51:00.000-05:002009-04-06T11:51:00.000-05:00Could you please fill me in to the significance of...Could you please fill me in to the significance of Sandie's resignation.

This implies some absolute value determination (in other words, saying that this list is everyone that is THIS good of a player or better).<BR/><BR/>You need to name the omission AND name the incorrect included parties. If you can't tell us who should NOT be on the list, then why should we assume you are correct in pointing out the omission.<BR/><BR/>Example: Brad Miller is a sweet basketball player...he shoulda been an all-star. The first part of this statement is true, but the conclusion drawn has no basis in reality. I need to say "Brad Miller is sweet, he should have been an All-Star over Shaq". That has a basis in reality.<BR/><BR/>Anytime you see an omission described without the author telling you who should be replaced: your bogus-alarm should go off.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17185944.post-20453946458293677762009-04-03T20:04:00.000-05:002009-04-03T20:04:00.000-05:00I realize your post is focused on the women's side...I realize your post is focused on the women's side, but I'm having trouble thinking of seven college players better than Jim Foster. And I say that with no particular love for the Hodags.<BR/><BR/>Last year I ended up watching far more women's ultimate than I'm really comfortable admitting. Georgia was the second best player that I saw all year, and one of only two that jumped out at me the first time I watched them play. The other was Kira. They were the two that it took about thirty seconds to peg as game-changers.<BR/><BR/>Courtney didn't stand out the same way, but it certainly speaks volumes about her that she received her team's nomination over Georgia. While I haven't watched enough women's teams this year to be able to speak with certainty, it seems unlikely that there are seven better players than both of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17185944.post-45406128573428993682009-04-03T10:57:00.000-05:002009-04-03T10:57:00.000-05:00I'm picturing Tom Annen playing frisbee in a panch...I'm picturing Tom Annen playing frisbee in a pancho right now, and I think that--were he to smoke little cigars and rape women in the middle of the day--he could be a fine Drifter. <BR/><BR/>But since tex-mex isn't his style, I guess you just have to leave that up to Georgia. <BR/><BR/>-FrederickBrian Frederickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08511375599460304511noreply@blogger.com
