Times of India covered Chennai Ultimate Frisbee last week. Nice article but I still don't understand the emphasis on ruthless work ethics, mentioned on the title. I know that this guy is referring to the abusive language on the field. Yes, we do shout at our own friends when they drop a disc or don't get a proper throw across to us. But that's part of the game. Even during our 5 minute break, we forget all that. Its just the intensity of the game that makes us behave that way when were on the field. Its a different kind of passion.
When you read the article, you'll see that the words "ruthless work ethics" are actually borrowed from someone who mentioned that on the field.
My point is - let it be that way, but why do you, as the press guy, go on to say "Chennai's professionals borrow from ruthless work ethics when flinging a disc around"
There were so many better quotes about Ultimate Frisbee that were given to you that day. Very inspirational ones. Ones that would actually get someone interested in taking up this sport. And what did you do with all that?
Is someone writing a paper titled "Why we hate PRESS" on the lines of "Why we hate HR"? I'd really like to contribute.
