UNSUBSTANTIATED RUMORS HOVERING
OVER THE NEW YORK ULTIMATE SCENE

WSL 2001

These rumors and innuendoes have not been proven, or even justified. But then again, same with everything you read in the Star or the New York Post. We know that some of these are true, just like we know that Jerry Springer gets some really great guests!

1. Pat Stoltz and Amy Himelbau got married in Prospect Park in December.

2. Ken Dobyns has returned to New York, secretly, and works as a bouncer.

3. Leah Lubin once played Annie.

4. Jason Sehorn threw a frisbee with me once.

5. SUNY Purchase has extorted thousands of dollars out of Marty Brutvan and Jude Frazier and they have threatened to kill them if the word ever gets out.

6. Eric Olson (EO) is an Israeli spy.

7. Pete Konigsberg is not an Israeli spy.

8. Skip Kuhn has a heart of pure, pure gold and incidentally, one of his eyes is fake.

9. One time last summer, during a game against Light Purple, I saw a guy call a foul only because the player who was guarding him was a rookie.

10. That 6'8" guy named Steve - he's really an Airline steward.

11. Several famous people play in the New York Summer League, maybe even Milla Jovovich.

12. Bill Bear smokes pot.

13. That really fast guy with the red hair that plays for one of those other Boston teams - that guy went to school in Long Island.

14. NYU has an ultimate team.

15. The guy that used to run the UPA now runs our listserver.

16. Billy Rodriguez is thinking about returning to New York to play.

17. There's a guy named Doug who shows up on Wednesdays only and plays half a game before he leaves, every time. But he's one of the best players ever. He never shows up to the final tournament either and he's been playing in the league for 12 years. Bill told me.

18. Dogs are allowed on the field.

19. Jenna is an angel, sent down from Heaven.

20. Chicken Joe McHugh got his nickname because he trades chicken futures on the Board of Exchange and one day he made $132,000 and bought all the players on his team a gold watch if they promised to let him play and not get mad at him, so then they started calling him 'chicken' even though that really steams him up.

21. Tony Leonardo is gay.
