Yo yo yo...

Rumor has it that Kansas City is playing host to an elite college CUltimate tournament in the beginning of November.  Carleton, Colorado, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, Texas, Luther and Kansas, among other teams have been mentioned as attending the event.  What's the validity of this?  I went to CUltimate's website and nothing of the sort is listed:

Whats the word on CUltimate?

It looks like they might have done a little to work on the UPA relationship.

Looks like they now help manage tournaments that are UPA affiliated?
How does this help the process? What are the benefits?

From what Ive heard CUltimate usually puts on crappy tourneys, and they only get the Elite teams by paying them/giving them free bids.
Whats going on currently with them? Anyone know some factual information?

Managed to hit the final game for the BorderBrawl in KC.
The fields were nice, weather was great, very windy though.
Not a lot of people hung around to watch the finals but there were a few fans.
Managed to catch Axl throwing up a couple of times, awesome, he still had his shirt off though of course.

It seemed to go smoothly but that was just the one game. Colorado won it pretty easily 11-8 hard cap.
