DON'T FORGET: This weekend is our "Superhero" Theme weekend. The team with the most participants sporting superhero garb gets mulla for pitches-o-beer at Blackthorn after the games!
Recaps:________________________________________________________
Sloshball Sunday:
Well not all male and female members decided to post for all the teams set to play this Sunday, but no matter, we still had our fun. After having a few female captains come forward to pick players at random and make 2 teams, we went out and put together 3 solid innings of play for the 2PM squads. Along the way we came up with some good improvised rulings, like for instance drinking when you round the bases, making bunting an automatic out, loading up the field with all your players, clockwise base rotations, plays that counted for two outs... It all came together pretty nicely. You really couldn't beat the weather, or the positive energy on the field, as many players who participated in the early game decided to take part in the 3PM game as well. Due to a change in pitching styles there were quite a number of runs, but equally some terrific defensive plays typically made one-handed, while the other handed clutched and supported a beer. For anyone who decided to skip out, or couldn't make it you really missed some good times. Don't worry though, cause we're back in action this upcoming weekend, and hopefully we'll see you all out again soon!
Mid-Season Party: ______________________________________________
We're having our Mid-Season Party this fall at Butter on October 4th!
This party's going on in coordination with one of our theme weeks on October 5th! 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! This party is gonna be COVER FREE to members of Vertigo. And, all our non-member friends that stop by only have to pay $5 to get in too! Oh, and did someone say SPECIALS!? That's right $3 "Tall Boys" and $5 Specialty Cocktails for us from 7PM until 10PM! That's when the bar will open up to the public, and their DJ will start getting his freak on!

Pointless Predictions:____________________________________________
1) Balls of Glory continues their strong(er) showing at the bar well into the end of the season. Eventually proving to us all that they're secretly kickball ninjas.
2) Tiffanie Wong of Morningwood will continue to fool people into drinking from her bag of "Franzia" until its later found out that she's secretly trying to poison us all! Kidding, the contents of the bag are delish, even if her version of slap the bag is different from my own.
3) Jeremiah Boehner of Sleazy Bandeezee will show up to the field still drunk from the day before, this isn't much of a prediction actually, its more like a known fact.
4) Sleazy versus 12 Step in an early matchup, I'm gonna go out on a limb and say 1) that this will be an intense game and 2) Sleazy will come out on top.
5) There will be a team totally decked out in Superhero outfits, and said team will score mulla for pitchers at Blackthorn after their game.
6) Rob Ray of team SF Natives will show up boasting about how he shaved a big Superman "S" emblem onto his ass. "Mooning" will thereafter ensue throughout the entire afternoon.
7) That's it for now!

Players of the Week:______________________________________________
Captains submit your players of the week to thefinalbunt@gmail.com!
Tam Le & Maureen O'Brien of Balls of Glory and Team Deathballs respectively, for their strong "Survivor Flip Cup" showings at the bar post-Sloshball Sunday. Both were fierce competitors, with Maureen eventually besting Tam as well as the rest of the previous participants along the way. My hat's off to them for now, as their fifteen minutes of fame is set to expire by next Sunday undoubtedly. Honorable mention goes to Tiffanie Wong of Morningwood for her performance as well.
Quick Kicks:____________________________________________________
1) Mid-Season Party is at BUTTER on October 4th! 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) The theme for October 5th, which is Superheroes, as decided by the readers/voters in our poll has been moved to THIS SUNDAY!
4) REMEMBER TO SHOW UP EARLY THIS WEEKEND TO GET A PARKING SPOT!
