Scott Dogg falls on Paul
Paul was running deep into the end zone for a catch, and Scott Dogg was close after him. Suddenly, Paul dove
for the disc, but Scott Dogg did not see until too late. But instead of falling, he somehow managed to land
on top of Paul. Everyone could see Paul sliding face-first across the ground with Scott Dogg sitting on his back.
Sasha's behind the back toss
Sasha had the disc, but was heavily guarded and could not make a pass. Using a fake toss as a distraction, he turned
and made a throw behind his back, for a perfect completion.
Arakell's huge defense
While playing a game against the MAD FIGS, Arakell had the opportunity to make a block. The throw was not aimed well,
and headed straight towards him. With a sweeping gesture, he knocked the frisbee out of the air and slammed it to the
ground. He then proceeded to congratulate himself on his amazing defensive skills. Now, it is a tradition among the
MAD FIGS to knock easy throws out of the air with a huge flourish.
Angry Bear's tackle defense
In a game against Clovis West, the Angry Bear was guarding the smallest and weakest player on the other team. Angry was
getting... well, angry because of the physical defense that was being played. So in response, instead of trying to block
the disc on one play, he simply tackled his opponent. This nearly lead to a brawl between the two teams, instigated
further by Thomas. Luckily, it was avoided, and the MAD FIGS team went on to win two straight games.
Kim Church rescues Paul
During a night game at Bullard High School, the MAD FIGS were near the end of an intense game. The other team was in
scoring position, but Paul had possession of the disc. He made a bad throw, and the other team gained control. It looked
like the end, but suddenly, Kim Church blocked the throw that would have won the other team the game. Paul told her,
"When I made that throw, my schlong fell off. But then Kim Church reached down and put it back on." Kim was disturbed.
The Hand of God Play
The standard Ultimate Frisbee plays for the MAD FIGS are based off the "FAN" offense. The player with the disc calls
out either "Flash" (where Jacob outruns his defender to the end zone), "Anything" (where they just throw wherever), and
"Navy" (where only short passes are used). During one of the numerous Flash plays in one game, Jacob lost his balance
and began to fall into the end zone. However, the frisbee bounced off of his head, landing perfectly in his outstretched
hands.
