I've come across a fun event I'd like to share with the kickball world: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=134290387305 PirateCon NYC 2009! It looks similar to the SantaCon that went down last December, but this time with pirates invading Manhattan! If anyone needs proof how amazingly fun SantaCo...

Also at stake tonight is the future of many NBA teams... for anyone interested, a few Pirates will be heading to Blue Room around 7pm to watch the first hour of the draft before heading to the fields...

PLAYING FOR PRIDE: Pirates- The Pirates are in a favorable position to improve in the seeding… but first they need to beat Swift Kick. Then if Pitches beat Boozers, or Pitches drops both games tonight, Pirates are the five seed. If Pitches lose against Boozers, but win their nightcap against Ramrod...

=KP= wrote:don't mean to harp on this again, but the #1 seed will play the winner of the #8/#9 game. the seeding guidelines were adjusted in the 2009 rule changes.

changed it... that would make sense as most brackets are seeded that way...

PLAYING FOR PRIDE: #1) Bulletproof Tigers – Win, lose, or draw the Tigers are headed into the post-season as the number one overall seed.* Only Flip Cup stands in their way of a shutout season. #2) Chipwich Nation- See above. Chipwich has locked down the two seed, aligning the NY Stars for a possib...

This might not work as well... but worth a try...

I'm sorry - I have to disagree - there were a TON of Ramrodders there into the weee hours, way after BJ left. We deserve at least a top three finish. :-bd You will be happy to know I have officially been impeached from the post ;) No bar ranking will be perfect, especially in a league like ours whe...

Wooo hoo! GO RAMROD! Thanks for posting BJ - also if you need any help with bar rankings- we can help you. We were still going strong after you left... i'm open to any info about events past 2am... i unfortunately had to be to work by 8am and I knew my bosses would be in... lame excuse, i know, but...

For anyone who doesn't know me... I'll be wearing my red and white striped ratty pirate shirt... and promise to be completely fair... I can already say it will take a miracle for SPB to place in the top 3 as we will be missing over half our roster tonight. So it's pretty much anyone's game. Who wil...

#1) Bulletproof Tigers 4-0 Last wk: #1, BT 4 – WBYL 0 The Tigers are in cruise control, but need to be wary of potential Ivan Drago Syndrome. The Commie warrior in Rocky IV became too invincible… and the first site of his own blood completely shattered his will. How will the Tigers respond when/if t...

Full weekly scores and standings...

haha, that tiger was teh shite. i gave it to wrobel as a forget me not. it will make an appearance every week now. the props will not stop for us. next week there will be pirate swords, sure, but what are the tigers going to bring next!? I think your underestimating the Pirates as a one trick pony....

Rebecca also deserves a shout out for the amazing, funtastic prop of the night... everyone looked amazing rockin' the neon shades...

Agreed. I think the communication trickled down the bouncers really, really well ... felt like a complete attitude change on their part, which was welcome. Yeah, it was like a completely different vibe. The music wasn't as loud either, so I could actually hear J-Hard insulting me. Also, I hope ever...

The board deserves a HUGE for their efforts. Things were much better last night and (as far as my team is concerned), we had a GREAT time!

Crazy week at work, so I apologize for the abbreviated rankings... #1) Bulletproof Tigers 3-0 Last wk: #1, BT 2 – CN 0 Took down Chipwich and kept their shutout season alive. Can anything stop them? This wk: vs. #5ish WBYL #2) Chipwich Nation 3-1 Last wk: #2, BT 2 – CN 0, CN 2 – TR 1 Could have suff...

P-p-p-pirate face, p-p-pirate face!

Drinking in "social masturbation" situations -- pre-gaming, on-field imbibing -- does not and should not ever count in bar rankings. On-field debauchery can certainly boost a team's standing in the team spirit/enthusiasm category (historically, the megaphone award in our leagues), but no ...

ahh touche my friend... all valid points and duly noted. And admittedly, the pirate booty is a def plus in the books nevertheless I’ll have to go back and check the time stamp on the photos--I’m pretty sure when the clock struck 1 your mighty ships turned back to row boats. Longevity is ends up bei...

I'll have to respectfully disagree with SPB getting snubbed at the #5 spot. Every team can debate crazy antics 'til we're blue in the face, so I'll move this argument in a different direction... It sure seems odd to me that if SPB was a mid level, #5, run-of-the-mill bar fun team... then why did eve...

Full weekly scores...

That's it.

I hate Turtle Bay with a passion, always have. When it was announced that this was the division bar, I was very sad. They constantly tell me to take off my hat, they tell members of SPB to take off bandanas, WTF!? I vote Blue Room. SPB was there Week 1 and I'm sure we'll be glad to go there from no...

The hype is palpable for the Bulletproof-Chipwich-Ramrod games this week. But the excitement for the after bar is at a fever pitch as well. Several teams think they deserve the top spot in the bar rankings... and I predict nothing but an all out war of drunkenness and debauchery come Thursday night...

Expect a major reshuffling of the rankings after week 3 (aka JUDGMENT WEEK). With a lot of major games on the slate, we could be seeing previews of what’s to come in the NY Star semis and finals. GAME OF THE WEEK: #1 BT @ #2 CN in a battle for NY Star supremacy. INTRIGUE GAME OF WEEK: #9 SKITG @ #10...

#1) Bulletproof Tigers (1-0) Last wk: #1, BT 6 – TR 0 The Tigers aren’t thinking about an undefeated season anymore… they’ve moved onto a shutout one. Still the team to beat in NY Star. This wk: @ #9 OC #2) Chipwich Nation (1-0) Last wk: #2, CN 12 – SKING 3 Chipwich’s new and improved high-octane of...

**Based on absolutely no logic, rhyme or reason.** #1) Bulletproof Tigers - Returning a seasoned core and some exciting newcomers, the Tigers enter with undefeated aspirations. The only question mark- how in the heck do you kill a bulletproof tiger? #2) Chipwich Nation- Spent more dough than the Ya...

For us teams already eliminated, how long until the next season starts?

I'm already in kickball withdrawal.

I wanted to throw this out there so I don't forget. But when voting starts up, for those that actually vote: Play of the year last night. Team America's outfield, no one takes charge, the ball bounces between a guy and a girl, hitting them a couple times each, they run in to each other, and the bal...

Even if they played a solid, mistake-free game, I still don't understand how they won 1-0. They have a good pitcher, striker, and/or catcher? CN scored a run in the bottom of the 5th after getting runners on 3B and 2B with nobody out. We weren't short on mistakes last night and are very full of hum...

This is true. I think part of the confusion was the Ballers/Team America game ended late so MOnkey filled in at 1st until it was over. Then Rob came over and asked me where he was needed. And I said he could just go take over at 1st for Mike, so I guess in essence it was my fault. Looking at the sc...

A few corrections from the newsletter: "Speaking of TDR, they took part in "statue pong" against Team America..." The game is actually called "People Pong," and is the second fastest growing sport in the country (behind kickball). If anyone would like a quick tutorial, ...

Who's winning? Angel's team. She can give you the rundown of other MB posters from her crew. My team is in second but I've been made privvy to a scheme against us. International chatter suggests there's going to be some "crazy shenanigans" going down tonight in the penny wars... Alliances...

It's time for some Straight Talk Express from Team America... (This is not directed at any specific team/player, just speaking in generalities): When the argument comes up debating the merits of playing kickball for fun versus playing to win, one argument always emerges: Any competitive person shoul...

While I appreciate the level of respect you give Team America, I have to disagree with your predictions. There's one vile vice hampering our team... we likey the booze. By the time the third game rolls around, we will have been drinking for nearly two hours... which could either result in a blowout ...
