I agree but there is already state team challenge. Steve Brinster is in charge of that and it's 50$ a man.


Brinster s thing is not Nefa. We are talking about nefa TC.

How hard is it for people to get one day off a month hasn't everyone played organized sports where you had to make a commitment twice a week? Schedules come out in September it gives you more than one months notice for your October match and 6 months notice for your march match. Flex schedules can give u as little as 2 weeks when captains finally decide on a date. There's no argument set schedules allow for far more notice. If u can't make an engagement with that much notice than you can't be counted on for anything. If you have a situation where you can't make commitments with that much notice then you shouldn't participate it has nothing to do with your ability, but the fact that your team can't count on you. I've run sports teams before and when guys can't show all the time I tell them not to bother coming anymore. Tc isn't for everyone it requires a commitment the least taxing commitment in all of sports.


THE only last minute scratch we've had is b/c a blizzard hit the night before a challenge. If the B pool is having issues with it, then go for it, have your own damn set schedule, this year, you are essentially a different league, B pool teams jump up next year, I'd go with letting the B pool testing this theory next year, I know that 2 out of 8 A pool teams like the current system, 3 more, A Pool stays with current system, if the B pool teams coming up don't like it... go play your own league.

Sloblo the troll at it again. Give it a rest Dbag! ...and get your facts right. Can you tell I am in a bad mood. I try to ignore, but the troll beat me!


This is coming from who? Oh, a Borderland person, who actually was probably at the center of his teams scheduling... how many challenges are scheduled around you over there? lol. The main culprit pipes up, love it! This year it's Redd, Issac and Mikey, if they aren't available... Borderland will NOT schedule!

Hostility? Wasn't talking bout the blizzard was cool with that cancellation was at my course. Just don't see how a set schedules not the way to go? Not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but letting headcases battle an easy improvement to a league is fn stupid. "I wrote the rules so f u, we don't need new better ideas" just vote it and see what happens.

Alright.. I feel like it's straight logic. Set schedules. period. (just follow the yes/no count on this thread)

That's my .02


I propose a committee to take on these talks. I think that the TC is absolutely becoming an organized sports league and should be treated like such.

Now this might be way too many politics and sh*t but I think there should be a committee for people to work this out. The Captains Thread is the area for that right now but it's too expansive.

There should be a small number of people on a board to re-structure this league based on the growth of disc golf. In my limited experience with this league (last 3 years, this past as a captain, which is MOST telling) I think that it needs re-structuring. This is no fault whatsoever of Todd's. He has done a great job and I'm really really appreciative of someone taking the bull by the horns and running this sh*t show.

My vote as of right now for who should be on this committee if they were interested would be Todd, Mullen, Tufts and ima throw Dakai in there too.

Look at me volunteer people to work their asses off!! :D

All of these guys speak logically and clearly, have good senses of humor and seem to have the best interest of the league on their minds.

Alright so that about wraps it up.. Get to work guys... I'll tune in in a few months, don't disappoint now! :P

This is a problem man.. There's one thing that really gets to me... And that's divisiveness..

The big problem with that logic Steve is that we all play disc golf in this area. B Poolers, A Poolers.. And I don't want to be overly-confrontational in any way but what's with this B Pool, A pool junk as if it distinguishes who's good and who's not? I know that there are a large number of "B Poolers" who are better at disc golf than you are Steve. And better than many of those who play in the A Pool. Nobody will argue that because it is true.

You gotta get off your high horse brother. In order for disc golf to move forward it needs people to work collectively, not to dismiss other's ideas and teams as "stupid."

It's actually really amazing with the amount of scheduling difficulties that has been had with A pool this year, that you think it unnecessary to change the system.

Perhaps I'm in the wrong here, if so, fine. But I clearly don't think I am, andddddd I'd imagine most wouldn't.

If changing it doesn't work and people aren't getting behind it to make it happen then maybe a new league should be established. But I would hope an effort towards unity would be made before dismissing the idea altogether.

If you can't get 10 of your 20 people to a challenge in a scheduled MONTH, after all there already is a SET schedule, your team should not be in this league... PERIOD.

The problem is teams trying to field the best team possible. Hell, if it had snowed a little more Saturday, Burgess would have been without 3 of our top 8 players. Including Troy. Our best player, and guess what... we still would have played.

What if the set weekend doesnt work for a team? And works for the other? I think the weaker teams want this setup b/c it makes it restrictive they'll take their chance that one weekend won't work for the other team and their key players... A pool doesn't give a [bleep], our teams are deep, we can show up with 10 and still beat most teams. Cranbury can, Wick can, Burgess can.

A pool will not agree to this, and we don't care which two scrub teams are coming up next year, you'll have the same fate as the 2 that came up this year... likely to be heading back. I have talked to a few of the A pool captains and the "Set Schedule" aint gonna work for them... I know I got atleast 50% right now...

Set schedules is not logic for such a fluid league that is over the winter and involves 10 person minimums... the B pool, AS USUAL is complaining about something, why don't you guys try a set schedule next year and see how it works, one of your new teams, Borderland... might not like it, they are tough to get a challenge with in the scheduled MONTH...

The answer is simple. Penalties for not playing within a set month, whether that's being given a lead before the challenge starts, a forfeit etc. People who think a set schedule will work in New England winters... Morons.. that is all.

PS. I aint the commish, so stop with the MY RULES [bleep]. funk annoying B poolers.

It's my opinion... don't like it, I'll give you the option I give people online all the time... don't like it? MUTE ME, IGNORE ME. I am not the commish, and personally, I feel if a team can't field 10 people in a given month, then yes, they are retarded. You have god damn 20 people on a roster, you can't get 10 to commit to one of 8 days? Your team shouldn't be playing then. Period.

Also, scheduling conflicts in the A pool? Why b/c one team has been through some crazy [bleep] this season involving a majority of their team members clearly affecting even their ability to bring 10 players? Hell they brought 10 on Sat, including their chick and without one of their top 2 players...

Why doesn't the B pool mind your own business, you guys having issues with scheduling? Try the set schedule for the rest of the season.. see how much strife that causes people... lol. I love how people think that restricting the schedule more is going to lead to LESS arguments about what weekend a challenge is being played on... completely moronic...

High horse? Yeah right buddy. It's CONSTANTLY the B pool bringing up [bleep], YEAR AFTER YEAR... "we wanna play A pool teams, but we don't want to travel", "we do/don't want to play for money", "regional divisions", waaaaaaaaaaaaaaah... this year "set schedules", dumb just like the previous funk 90 ideas the B pool comes up with, if I am being divisive? Good I don't give a [bleep], b/c I had to deal with this bullshiz for 2 years. Assign B pool commissioner, let him make decisions, cuse the people complaining about Todd not updating the schedule real time are retarded also... jesus christ people. I wish we could just separate these leagues, clearly there are 2 different mantra's between the leagues, you guys want fun... we play for fun and for money at a high level.

I will BET large SUMS of shift 4 that set schedule would work better for the MAJORITY of the entire league A/B

The TC has become huge..TD''s could then schedule winter events around TC as TC is the bigger monster

yes Solbo 10 peeps should always be able to show up agreeeeed! BUT would they still not with set schedules? I only see more being able to attend...

Its not always about having your "best players" its about getting players qualified sometimes...IF the schedules were set and a team member can't attend at least ya know in say SEPT...and ya can make the proper move..maybe cut them if that is the case...

it would be more efficient IF a team captain/manager could just give a sheet of paper to the players and discuss pre season the season...besides for funerals ect ect...peeps seem to make things happen...esp if they had a solid date to clear schedule for they will come...rather then contacting 20 peeps 5 times....possible 100 amount of times players need to be polled rather the 1..hmmmmm seems to be I will use your word SIMPLE math reallllllY

I am going to propose the league splits. Yup, we are elitists and we know we can crush every B pool team.

Discuss.

You guys can have your own Blue Ribbons, your own set schedule, and if the Champ of the B pool wants a piece of the A pool champ... BRING IT ON!

You got a way with words.. What I think is funny about this is that you act as if scheduling an event happens the week of the event so as weather can be predicted. That's not the case at all. Winter really has no play here at all because these challenges are set up too far ahead of time to know if the weather is going to be bad or good so that point is completely moot. AKA the proposed set schedules or the monthly set schedules we have now makes no difference what-so-ever in relationship to the weather.

I think it's awesome that there is such a collection of talent on some squads. It's ill and I love it. I'd love it even more if some of these players and matches could get exposure as the sick athletes and sporting events they are.

How many tournaments did you play last year? The year before that?

How apart of the disc golf scene have you been lately? How can you possibly have your finger on the pulse of it?

Do you realize how much this game is expanding? How it's absolutely BLOWING UP in New England?

What is your claim to fame to talk so damn confidently on this forum man?

By being obstinate and ignorant you're only going to contribute to stalling the advance of this sport my brother. I hope that can be overlooked for the greater good, and if not it won't much matter anyway. If your A pool super athletes rally behind your super awesome and athletic self(???) then a new league will form and it will most likely become THE league because it will address the fact that the DG landscape is changing and you're going to see a lot more "b poolers" every year. And ya know what Steve. That's awesome. That means we're growing.

It's great that you could be a part of it in such a big way (NEFA Prez) and I commend you for that man. That's great. I just hope you can continue to be a part of it's growth and not just sit back being divisive.

another simple math problem...look at the views/post for this thread in short time...seems it at least has the interest of the majority

also I think we finally have the solution solbo....yes split em up...doubt it would be blue ribbon fest...and what happens when nobody wants to play in the A pool..and your elite teams slowly die from not realizing the B pool helps them in long run...and you guys can go back to your intrastate bromances of elite players...BUT when your elite league dies..and it will in time as all things elite eventually are not..then what? when we are 20 teams deep and having a blast and your 4 team elite league gets tired of playing spin the bottle on over nite sleep overs I bet the tune changes...

I say make the league 1....and if ya want this super competitive skill level of top players man up and play Steves B's state challenge..get this league back to local courses breeeeeding local talent in a common cause course pride and fun!

It's great that you could be a part of it in such a big way (NEFA Prez) and I commend you for that man. That's great. I just hope you can continue to be a part of it's growth and not just sit back being divisive.


Lol. Have a kid, see what happens to your playing time. Yes, I am a PDGA member, just not current, don't play enough right now, but when I was playing regularly, ecspecially towards the end of the summer of 2010, I was routinely shooting 965-975 rated rounds, I just looked at yours... nice middle of the pack AM1 numbers... just saying. Typical B pooler, but that's good, atleast your playing at the appropriate level. Probably at the top of your teams roster...

Also Burgess is still mostly homegrown... I don't think the "powers" of the league are going to do anymore combining...So, I'll be content with my spot on Team Burgess.

People think these super teams are gonna form, I am pretty sure teams are pretty happy with where they are now. I wonder if the B pool could form a "Super Team" that could contend with the top A pool teams... lol.

See how good of a mood I am in...? lol. People on this board are so easy.

Yeah, Dakai said that with the 3rd weekend of each month could be the prospective make up date if need be.

Ha.. personal insult definitely. Nah, I think there are a bunch of really qualified individuals to be a part of a committee to save a unified TC league. I just named a few and realistically I think it should be kept to a small number of folk so as to make it easier.

So essentially we move from a four weekend window, to a 2 weekend window... lol. b/c you know teams will use that makeup weekend if some of their feature players aren't available.. people say use common sense, but I can simply say on the phone, "sorry, we only have 8 for the scheduled weekend, but I have 14 for the following, so I guess we are going to the make up weekend."...

lol. and people say the set schedule is "common sense"... i rest my case. what's your proposal for penalty for a team using this excuse? what if it's not an excuse? set schedule... sooooo simple! lol.

Yeah, I specifically remember you shooting a killer round at Amesbury (46/47?) to crush in AM1. It was my first year playing tournaments. I choked and lost in Am2.

I'm playing pro this year for the whole year. Last year I was 3rd in points standing in AM1 and 2nd at finals. I'll prob get smoked in pro for most the year but I will keep on working at it. I want to be good, better and better and better. I love this game so I'm gonna keep working on it.

I can only imagine about having a kid, I knew you did and I knew you haven't played much as a result, that was my whole point.

I've put in a lot of effort to be where I'm at right now as far as rating is concerned man. And I'm sure you did too before you consistently were shooting 965-975 rated rounds. It's just sad to me that you can't remember those times and now disenfranchise enthusiastic members of the disc golf community because they're not "on your level."

I hope to be around a 960+ rated golfer by the end of this year. A personal goal, we'll see how it goes..

My whole point with this thing is to be inclusive man. Have some love, GROWWWW the game... And I understand that your point is we A poolers don't have time to mess with you B poolers who aren't as good as us.

My counter-point? Dude, you're not that good.

And it's not a finger-pointing contest because I have no delusions about my play I know where I stand and I'm happy to be there and happy to keep working on getting better. It's all you can do ya know?

Probably still could beat you heads up though. Rust and all.

Trust me, I am working hard enough with the Cape Cod Disc Golf Club to grow the sport down here where it needs it.

I believe it man and all I gotta say to that is kudos, and keep it up! It's great fun work for a great game. But just because you're doing a bunch of work out there doesn't mean you shouldn't be open-minded on these forums and try to do work to grow the game here too ya heardddd???
