First practice is a week from today - Saturday, May 3rd, at Memorial Park from 11-2.
***Practices will be once weekly on Sundays at Memorial Park in Omaha, unless for some reason we decide to change the location. All practices will be in Omaha after discussion with several of the Lincolnites. We are moving back an hour to 11AM, and practices will run until 2PM. Conditioning/skills workout pods will be forming and happening this season as well. First practice is May 3rd - SATURDAY. All other practice will be on Sundays after that.

Initial team planning meeting was yesterday at the Moon, and some things were accomplished. We will need to have one more meeting prior to the start of the season to hammer out a couple more details. Here is some tentative/preliminary info....
***Practices will be once weekly on Sundays at Memorial Park in Omaha, unless for some reason we decide to change the location. All practices will be in Omaha after discussion with several of the Lincolnites. We are moving back an hour to 11AM, and practices will run until 2PM. Conditioning/skills workout pods will be forming and happening this season as well. First practice is May 3rd - SATURDAY. All other practice will be on Sundays after that.
***Captains for 2014 are StewBuck and Hoarty. Sheets will retain whatever role he had last year (honey jack commander). Line callers will be from among the veteran leadership core of the team, TBD.
***Commitment in 2014 - a lot of guys at the meeting expressed desire to make 2014 more committed in terms of practice and tournament attendance. More on that as we get closer to practices starting.
***Recruiting - More activity at SOUL and LUDA this year to get us numbers at practice. This means all bonehorns doing their part.
***Tourneys - Post on the FB group with suggestions. Some people have mentioned Monkey Bowl. We will be attending Solstice for sure in June. Jumpin Joe's remains a great option for season kickoff - male bondhorning, practice weekend, partying, and more. Dan Gabor Savage 7's in Fayetteville the Saturday before that could work out well for us too.

Spring is here, Nebraska - hone your bones and sharpen your horns. Soon there will be NED-style disc to be had in a field/meadow near you. What will 2014 hold for the great Bonehorn and its bony band of horned men? Will we sacrifice our pig to the Solstice gods in Tulsa this June? Will we live up to our reputation as the dark stain of Midwest ultimate? Will the Steward of Bonehorn lead us to the promised land in September? We may start practicing soon, who knows. Hell, we may even have a "team meeting." Hopefully there will be more detailed info to come. But do you really need more than that?
In the meantime, something to think about: You can't clock the speed of a chicken cause it doesn't run in a straight line

Bonehorn has another third place finish for 2013 - this time at Cooler Classic in Delafield, Wisconsin. From afar and on paper, the bones put up some pretty good victories and finished 3-3. Look for Colin's wrap-up in the Captain's Log coming soon, and likely some good horn footage as well.
Jumpin Joe's Ultimate Paradise in two weeks! Sectionals in three weeks! Huzzah! Schedule updated. Practice Saturday in Lincoln.
Another flashback video of the week - 2007 Harvest Moon - Mark Milburn produces a tasteful one-man highlight film? Note Joey Spicha as Hillary Clinton (Hillary bonus footage is up in the media section). Somewhere in this wide world, Joey Bear is getting his bonehorn on as we speak.

Now that moving is over and internet is back on, here are some updates:
MUDI last weekend - good work horns. After a 4-1 Saturday of pool play (Loss to Climax, 2nd in pool), NE beat Superior YCC in the quarters. After going up 9-6 vs. Imperial, they battled back to make it 10-10, 11-11, 12-12, 13-13, 14-14. Unfortunately a big huck on double game point took us down and denied us a chance at the MUDI championship against General Strike. Overall - 5-2, T-3rd. Highlights will be up soon on the media page, including Paul's greatest score to Cole in the Semifinals.
Upcoming events - No practice this Saturday or next. This weekend is Cornhusker State Games, and next Saturday is the SOUL tournament and party at O'Leaver's. Local horns are working out on Wednesday evenings at 6PM - contact Stew Buckley with any questions. There has been some discussion, especially with SOUL ending soon, of starting a "competitive" pickup game on Sundays - keep your ears to the bonehorn for more details coming soon.
Cooler Classic is August 17/18 in Milwaukee, WI. Make your plans for rides and work off now! We will be camping at Nagawaukee park with pretty much everyone else that is going. Info such as pools and such will be posted soon, when it becomes available to us.
Schedule page has been updated, this time accurately.

It is official, Tulsa Ultimate has been taken by storm. Bonehorn happened to Solstice in 2013 and it will certainly be a year to remember. Greg Meyer and Newt dominated the Chariot Race while the older horns stayed the course and finally made it to the adult swim at the pond to seal the deal on the party victory. Bonehorn also had a good weekend of ultimate, going 4-2 (T-3rd). Check out the full story in the upcoming recap in the captain's log. Solstice highlights coming soon.

Solstice and Swiss are this weekend. Bonehorn ignite! Neb-Hur/Bone-Hur is ready to cross the Rubicon and take down every last plebian and patrician at Valley Park in Tulsa this year. Remember to find a red bedsheet for your toga - after all, we are going as Maximus' Legions of the North as well as the whole Charlton Heston thing. The two stories are really very similar anyway. Also remember to grab plenty of roman candles and artillery shells on the way down. Solstice rides are figuring out on facebook.
Solstice info can be found at http://www.tulsaultimate.com/tournaments/2013-summer-solstice/information. Make sure to use the Keetonville Road entrance to Valley Park, the bridge on the other side is usually out every year. Bring a lot of sunscreen, bugspray, shade tents, ego, bone, and horn. Friday party BYOB apparently. Car one will arrive roughly 7PM and will have home away from home ready for your tents. Bring coolers and whatever you will need for the whole weekend along.
Everyone going to Swiss should talk to Kyle O/Jimmy/Grant/Austin.

Good practice yesterday. SOUL this Tuesday, Solstice and Swiss this weekend. Rides via Facebook - there are early and late cars leaving Friday. Be sure to hit Watson, MO for some fireworks on the way down. Bring a red/white and a bedsheet for a toga - this year's theme is Roman Solstice, or something to that effect, including chariot races and gladiator fights. That in addition to the usual slip-n-slipe and piñata. All information can be found here http://www.tulsaultimate.com/tournaments/2013-summer-solstice/information.
Among the teams... The Karllisseum, Huckules, Julius Scoober, and of course yours truly, Bone-Hur.

Great Plains Showdown 2013 is in the books! It was wet. It was wild. Gnarwhal made the finals of our event for the 5th time out of 5 tries and brought their 3rd title back to Des Moines by beating Nebraska 15-10. The streak of Iowan domination at our tournament continues. Bonehorn was forced to split into bone and horn, with both making the semis and getting our younger dudes plenty of PT. Thanks to all the people who made this weekend possible, especially Tom Sitorius, John Boyd, Muddy Watters, Aaron Brooker, the whole Ultimate Disc Store crew, the people at Lucky Bucket, Colin Punt, Joel Peterson, La Vista Parks and Rec, and many more. Full long-winded GPS recap can be found in the captain's log. Full results updated on Score Reporter - http://scores.usaultimate.org/scores/#open/tournament/12480

Practice is this Saturday at Norris Middle School at 10AM. The second half of the season starts after Solstice in 2 weeks, but we are going to be ramping up the intensity starting Saturday. Cleats on by 10AM, bring a white/dark and water.
Solstice is June 22nd/23rd in Tulsa, OK. Bonehorn huzzah! Solstice is the best tournament in the Midwest. It is 100% hot and skanky. We may also be sending a batch of horns to Swiss for a mixed weekend. Whichever way you slice it, bonehorn gets lucky in 2 weekends!!

Bonehorn has returned from another long journey, this time to Nashville, TN. Despite low numbers and mounting injuries, the NE crew found a way to go 2-1 early, crushing fools from what we gather. After a disappointing finish in the final game on Saturday, NE was still in the contention bracket. We had the lead on the ATL squad Six Pack on Sunday morning and found a way to let it slip away late. Even so, a successful weekend it was. Colin Punt's writeup coming soon to the Captains' Log.
GPS2013 is this weekend! Alert all bones and hoist the horns. All info can be found in the GPS section of the site. Be there or be a complete nutjob.

The results are in from a good weekend of Nebraska Disc - a podium finish at Fayetteville and a good time at Joe's. Our guys n' gals represented well, going 5-1 and taking 3rd after losing in the semis to the younger Arkansas squad. Tom and fellow party rats were able to come back to defeat the older AR folks on double game point to win the pool as well. Check out Tom's breakdown in the Captains' Log, coming soon. Nice work, and don't forget - Nashville is this weekend! Rides and hotels organizing on the facebook group, or talk to someone at SOUL tomorrow.

The bonehorn train leaves tonight for Fayetteville, Arkansas. We are sending a crew to investigate the Dan Gabor Savage 7's Memorial Tournament and also to bring us back some hardware. Interesting note about this event - fundraising is a major aspect, and the dough goes to 1 scholarship each year for a U of A ultimate player (pretty bonehorn).
If you are staying in town, there is still practice to be had. Omaha guys are meeting at Memorial Park at 10AM on Saturday morning (May 25th). Expect to run a few drills, work on individual weaknesses, yada yada. Lincoln guys and gals, ya'll figure it out for ya'll.
Monkey Bowl is next weekend in Nashville, Tennessee...get ready for some dry-rub bonehorn and moonshine.

5/13/13 - Upcoming tournament schedule
Hello Nebraskans and Terp,
We're getting ready for three weekends in a row of tournament bonehorn action - get saddled up and join us for a tubular kickoff to the club season. Here is the breakdown:
May 25th-26th: Dan Gabor Savage 7's - Fayetteville, AR. One day savage tournament followed by a short drive to Jumpin Joe's Ultimate Paradise for camping and more disc Saturday and Sunday with the Tulsa and Arkansas crews. If you've never been to Joe's, check out the updated section of the site. Dan Gabor info can be found at http://www.fayettevilledisc.org/wp/dan-gabor-ultimate-tournament-fayetteville-ar/
June 1st-2nd: Monkey Bowl - Nashville, TN. Traditionally a strong club tryout tournament, Monkey Bowl is far away from the horn but is well-run and worth the drive. With the option to play either Open or Elite, we of course opted for the Elite division. Expect to see tryout squads for Prairie Fire, Castle, and more teams from the south such as Six Pack (ATL) and Iron Men (Birmingham). Monkey Bowl info can be found at http://www.nashvilleultimate.com/tournaments/monkey-bowl

We would love for you, the bonehorn individual, to attend all three events, even if you are currently injured or incapacitated in some way, or if your name is Joel Peterson. Let the captains know what your dealio is, and if there is some way we can help out to get you to these events, we will do it. Practice this Saturday (5/18) is in Lincoln, East Campus, 10AM. Omaha people - let us know if you need rides so we can set up carpools.
Much love,
NE Disc Captains
We're getting ready for three weekends in a row of tournament bonehorn action - get saddled up and join us for a tubular kickoff to the club season. Here is the breakdown:
May 25th-26th: Dan Gabor Savage 7's - Fayetteville, AR. One day savage tournament followed by a short drive to Jumpin Joe's Ultimate Paradise for camping and more disc Saturday and Sunday with the Tulsa and Arkansas crews. If you've never been to Joe's, check out the updated section of the site. Dan Gabor info can be found at http://www.fayettevilledisc.org/wp/dan-gabor-ultimate-tournament-fayetteville-ar/
June 1st-2nd: Monkey Bowl - Nashville, TN. Traditionally a strong club tryout tournament, Monkey Bowl is far away from the horn but is well-run and worth the drive. With the option to play either Open or Elite, we of course opted for the Elite division. Expect to see tryout squads for Prairie Fire, Castle, and more teams from the south such as Six Pack (ATL) and Iron Men (Birmingham).

Practice is on this Saturday - 10AM at Norris Middle School - just south of Center on 45th by McFly's and Wells Fargo. Bring a light/dark, water, and your best Gladiator quotes. Backup fields are at Memorial. Practice next week is in Lincoln, location TBD. Call your fellow bonehorns and encourage them to attend, as you will be greatly rewarded for doing so. How, you ask? Find out this Saturday, 10AM, at Norris.

Second practice today is CANCELLED due to weather and the younguns being gone. Memorial Park is in pretty rough shape, so until further notice we will be practicing at Norris Middle School south of Center St. on 45th-46th. Practice is on next Saturday - bring a light and a dark, water, and the bonehorn you were entrusted with in week one.

First practice in the books, good numbers out there. Good to see so many returning bones and yet so many new horns. We will work on a new practice field location because apparently people get on their tractors and go play at Memorial park in the witching hour. No broken tibias will be allowed.
Interesting notes from Day 1 of the 2013 campaign - No Joel Peterson sighted. Although he attended the pre-practice meeting/debauchery at Douger's last week, Joel was mysteriously AWOL on Saturday. Our trusted sideline manager and handler extradordinaire probably was just sleepy, so lets give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.
Email from Fayetteville, Arkansas today: Invite to Dan Gabor Savage 7's, which takes place on Saturday of Memorial Day Weekend. All the Tulsa and Fayetteville people are heading up to Jumpin Joe's (45ish minutes away) to camp out and do some male and female bondhorning for the rest of the weekend. Notes about the tourney - co-ed, 1 day, bring 9 on a squad but start and finish each game with the same 7. Karl has a supply of ladies if NE cannot find any, says Karl. If NE travels to Arkansas, it is probably more likely that Arkansas travels to NE for GPS2013, so lets do this.

Updates. It is still cold in Nebraska and always will be. Our bonehorns are frigid. Practice starts in two weeks. Coming soon, the newest dance craze to sweep I-80, the bonehorn grind.

Fools Fest 2013 is in the books, and as usual we turned it into a pretty good time. The sun came out, Joel passed out, and except for a little hiccup Saturday
afternoon, the NE boys won out. It was a weekend saturated with zone, booze, and gigantic egos, and the Nebraska handler lines calmly worked it... until, Blade City!! Unfortunately, a lot of good blades died out there this weekend. Fortunately, the zone of our own got us turn after turn, and grindin' is indeed our game. Some of us came back with bruised and twisted horns, but I guess it was worth it, and most improved definitely goes to Chas Busch.

Upcoming events
April 6/7 - Omaha Open - Bonehorn civil war.
April Something - Somewhere in South Dakota, spring tune-up.
Last Saturday in April - First spring practice.
