Week 3

Lots of forfeits in Week 3. Just a tip for everyone, try to carpool, take public transit and/or get to the field early. Parking's gonna be a pain in the butt this fall.

Recaps:________________________________________________________

Captains send recaps, recaps end up here. Captains don't send recaps, your team gets no love (thefinalbunt@gmail.com) and don't forget to send in player of the week nominations too!

SF Natives:
We went all out at the bar in celebration of another team victory Sunday against the Frisco Donkeys. Twice the Donkeys had bases loaded, and never once did they make it across home plate. Thanks to our impenetrable defense, we shut 'em out with a final score of 5 to 0. We rock Donkey balls!

Balls of Glory:
Balls of Glory unfortunately had to forfeit due to the horrendous parking conditions! Only 5 people were lucky enough to find parking. However, a few team members were lucky enough to discover a huge parking garage at 2nd and Irving. Its $3 for the first hour (Parking Garage Website). You're welcome, and you can thank us all on Sunday. :)

Team Deathballs:
I think the captains for the Deathballs might actually be, in fact, dead!

Team SAAS:
The team arrived late this week due to our stressful and fulfilling aid work for starving children in Africa. Thereafter WAKA regulations caused the team to receive a forfeit, but we still played an AMAZING game winning 4,598,438 to 3 over the Deathballs. Despite this past weekend's turn of events we plan to continue our work to help starving children, and kick ass at kickball.

Also, we have a special bulletin! We are missing a very integral member to our team, if found, would you please return to June Mangers. She's a pink, stylish facilitator-of-intoxication and mascot to our team. She answers to the name of Flabongo. Our team does not negotiate with terrorists, so we are premptively issuing a warning in place of a reward; if she is not returned within the coming week, we will ransom the league funds and suspend any and all season parties.

(With 2 members of the Social Chair Committee on their team, they could do it too. Whoever has that Flabongo, make damn sure you return it!)


12 Step Sloshers:
Breaking News! The 12 Step Sloshers are dominating the world by forfeit! Yeah, that's right, be jealous! We're in 1st place and we didn't even have to do anything to earn it, besides finding a good parking spot and eating jello-shots! Take that Morningwood! Looks like your face chalk isn't so intimidating now.

Sleazy Bandeezee:
Jeremiah Boehner, get off your butt and send me a recap.

Frisco Donkeys:
Step up your game and shoot me your deets.

Morningwood:
Lost by forfeit to 12 Step Sloshers, but despite being short-handed won the scrimmage thereafter, and kicked butt in the bar (as always). After last weekend's shenanigans in Vegas we've got victory and a return trip to World Championships on our mind! You've all been warned!

Mid-Season Party: ______________________________________________

We're having our Mid-Season Party this fall at Butter on (TBA: Working over deets right now. More news next week)!

This party's going on in coordination with one of our theme weeks on (TBA). That theme is going to be White Trash. Butter is a trendy spot, known for repping the white-trash genre to the maximum! Take a look at their website (particularly the menu) and you'll catch our drift!

Go big or go home gang! Feel free to dress up at Butter for the theme, but definitely come prepared that following Sunday! The team with the most players dressed in support of our theme week gets money for pitchers of beer at our sponsor bar, the Blackthorn Tavern!

Need tips on how to look the part? Check out pics from this google search to get your ideas flowing: White Trash Party

Get pumped people! More details on the actual date of the event soon! Including specials!

Vertigo taking over the bar!

Pointless Predicitions:____________________________________________

1) Less teams will forfeit this weekend. I'm a bit shaky on this prediction to be honest with you.
2) Balls of Glory will post on Sunday, play, and then vanish without a trace. (All kidding aside, we like you guys, why don't you play with us on the field and in the bar too? We don't bite! Well most of us don't!)
3) 12-Step Sloshers will win the regular season purely on forfeits.
4) Morningwood may or may not attack Matt (the league pres) for calling a forfeit on their behalf again.
5) Sarah Ovies, of Vertigo and team Morningwood, will go down in history as the first chick to be wed during the Kickball World Championships.
6) Her husband Clint will legally change his name and move to a new city, once the annulment papers are filed of course...
7) Rob Ray will shave a new symbol into his chest by the end of this season. Until then, he will been seen without a shirt on at every innoportune moment.
8) I will learn the definition of innoportune, and thereafter use it every chance I get.
9) Alpha Bar will start up again... Soon. Sooner than later, I'm pretty sure.
10) I will run out of things to predict for this week.
11) Done!

Ridiculous Photo(s) of the Week:____________________________________

Photo of Flabongo that went missing in action.

No amount of alcohol will wash this image away!

Why?

Players of the Week:______________________________________________

Captains submit your players of the week to thefinalbunt@gmail.com!

Everyone who forayed the impenetrable ring of parked cars around Golden Gate Park this past Sunday, and made it to their games (either on time, or way late after foraging for parking). Sunday really got out of hand gang, I mean people in San Francisco have an ungodly amount of love for opera music! Lets avoid issues like that again, if you're driving I'd advise you to try and get to the park 30 minutes early this Sunday!

Quotes of the Week:______________________________________________

Submit quotes you overheard this weekend to thefinalbunt@gmail.com!

Quick Kicks:____________________________________________________

1) Mid-Season Party is at BUTTER! Get psyched up for that and our for our White Trash theme week!
2) We're raising money for charity. Yes, that's correct. We'll be helping out others instead of ourselves for once. INSANITY! Deets on that soon too.
3) If you're upset about your squad not getting any love on the blog, its cause your team leaders don't participate by submitting info. So players hassle your team captains, and captains shoot me an e-mail after each Sunday. Thanks!
4) The theme for October 5th is Superheroes as decided by the readers/voters in last week's poll.
5) REMEMBER TO SHOW UP EARLY THIS WEEKEND! PARKING WILL BE TOUGH!

Of course Morningwood would have returning to the Kickball championships on their minds, so they could get their asses kicked even MORE embarrassingly next time!

Cap'n Rob said...

Damn, will... that was pretty harsh! But seriously Wooders... If you are going to go back, let's try and get more than 9 people... make that more than 8 people and one in a walking cast...

flabongo is in a safe home don't worry...but only bribery will get him back.

Erica and John said...

If you want to get in Team SAAS' pants, I am sorry that is just not an option.

Sully said...

Morningwood would like to say that we didn't take the flabongo but we greatly applaud whoever did. Good work. And SAAS sucks. That is all.

June said...

Okay Tom, gig's up. Give back the Flabongo before it's too late....

Anonymous said...

we have it. but who's we?

hint: bribery

Emily Marissa said...

The only bribe we will put out to the terrorists who took our flabongo is a quick and painless death for them...Otherwise, when we find you, and rest assured we will, we'll make you wish you had never set your filthy paws on our little pink friend...

June said...

BRIBERY?!?!!? Who do you think you are?!?!!? This will get dirty...

Dirty hu... OK you bringing the Oil and we will build the wrestling ring.

Erica and John said...

We have enlisted the services of a hacker, you anonymous coward. IP addresses -- unfortunately for you -- do not lie.

Charles said...

VP/Newsletter guy writing in here; Please resolve this issue over the weekend - Members of Team SAAS are seriously (read: completely and some inconsolably) pissed off. If you have the "Flabongo" hand it over this weekend. Your joke is not funny, and its pissing me the f*ck off.

If this issues isn't resolved by next week, I will find out whoever is responsible for the theft, and thereafter take measures to have them removed from the league. You've stolen something that is not yours, and started to upset those not directly related to this issue. Measures will be taken to find you, and thereafter punish you, regardless of who you are.
