A good friend of mine is captain of an ultimate frisbee team, and she always defined Spirit of the Game as "Don't Be a Dick" #sotg

So when I saw a patch and sticker with that on it, I ... went a little crazy and ended up with a bakers dozen. Thanks, retrogradesupplyco, for having so many excellent choices!

This article about #ultimate reads like a Valentine’s Day love letter.

It’s one of the more interesting and well-reported stories about the sport that I can remember. #sotg

The Parking Lot Frisbee Game That Started in 1968 Is Still Going Strong

In the New Jersey parking lot where high school students invented Ultimate Frisbee nearly 60 years ago, some of the original players are still throwing the disc every week.

#ultimate is a dynamic, athletic, non-contact field sport played with a frisbee on grass, turf and beach. It's based on the principles of self-officiating and Spirit of the Game. Come play and find out what makes it so joyful and unique. #sotg

I support raising money for diabetes, and even more, sports communities acting in positive ways that support Spirit of the Game #sotg

Why Are Buffalo Bills Fans Giving to the Charity of a Ravens Player?

A charitable drive for diabetes research in the name of the Ravens receiver Mark Andrews, who missed a pivotal play in a game against the Buffalo Bills, has raised more than $120,000.
