Week 6

What's that in the sky!? A bird!? A plan!? No! Its the 12-Step Sloshers! That's right, the 12-Steppers won our theme for Week 6. If you missed that, check out all the other stuff you missed below!

Don't forget to arrive to the fields early this Sunday, or that our theme this week is "WHITE TRASH" or that our MID-SEASON PARTY is this SATURDAY at BUTTER, or that ALPHA BAR is this WEDNESDAY at AMANTE (starting at 7PM) in North Beach!

That's a lot to remember, but you kids are smart, I've got faith in you! Check below for more details on the Mid-Season Party, Theme for Sunday and Alpha Bar!

Mid-Season Party: ______________________________________________

We're having our Mid-Season Party this SATURDAY at BUTTER!

This party's going on in coordination with our White Trash theme day on October 5th! 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 on Sunday! The team with the most players dressed in support of our theme 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 (from 7-10). 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 until 10PM!

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:
SF Natives tied this week against Team SAAS 2 to 2, and we've still got a strangle hold on the first place title (although now we gotta share it with 2 other jokers). It was an intense game, as the competition had us on pins and needles half the time, but thanks to our tough defense and good base running we held on for the tie.

Balls of Glory:

Team Deathballs:

Team SAAS:
SAAS played a great game against the SF Natives and is happy that NO ONE LOST!!! While both teams played well, our team was singled out by recruiters for the Professional Kickball League, and we have been asked to compete in ESPN's Professional Kickball League finals this November. Since the Flabongo has been returned our team feels complete, and will look to win the first ESPN PKL Trophy very soon!

12 Step Sloshers:
"In all my years of playing kickball, I've never lost a game on my birthday." David Zetzer, 12 Step Sloshers

The 12 Step Sloshers BEAT (yes, you ready correctly) Sleazy Bandeeze by a score of 2-1 on Sunday. Sleazy scored 1 run in the first inning but with our super hero powers (and fancy capes) the Sloshers held Sleazy until the bottom of the 5th inning. Co-Captain Logan Presnell danced his way into home plate followed by Alex Carwil, who barely missed getting smashed in the nuts by the big-red-rubbery-ball, and leaped his way home. At that point, Sleazy bowed their heads and the Sloshers rushed the field. Ladies and Gentlemen, we have finally won a game out-right! The conclusion: David Zetzer's birthday should be every Sunday and he's a f*cking awesome cook!

Sleazy Bandeezee:

Frisco Donkeys:
Came out 6-deep in an attempt to face down their opponents, but due to WAKA regulations had to forfeit. Hats off to their players who decided to come out.

Morningwood:
We won our game 12-5 against Team Deathballs the other day. We started out rocky, letting the DB's score 5 runs against us in 1 inning, but eventually we started to play tougher defense, and rocked home some good kicks to finish 7 points ahead of our opponents.

Pointless Predicitions:____________________________________________

1) Members of Vertigo will blend in with their surroundings on Sunday in the park... Mostly cause they'll be sporting White Trash ensembles!
2) The "drum line" behind field 2 will be in full effect, and I will bring my cardboard so we can breakdance in front of 'em.
3) SAAS vs 12-Steppers in an early matchup. Who's gonna win; I'm thinking 12-Steppers by forfeit. That seems to be a trend this season for the Sloshers.
4) Morningwood wins their match by forfeit as well probably, although I'd love Frisco Donkeys to prove me wrong here.
5) Cliff from Morningwood shows up rocking white trash apparel to the extreme, weeks after showing up sporting those same clothes on the wrong weekend.
6) 12-Steppers try to go all out with the theme for the 2nd week in a row, but end up facing some tough competition to win the grand-prize.
7) There remains a 3-way tie for first place in the league for the 2nd straight weekend.
8) SAAS's Flabongo, now returned to its rightful owners, gets tossed around the league like a $2 whore, satisfying everyone's thirst for light beer.
9) Kickballers, who like to drink & socialize, will be spotted at Amante this Wednesday taking it easy and talking about the weekend.
10) Tom Lanahan, our WAKA Rep and pitcher for Sleazy Bandeezee finally makes an appearance on Sunday?

Players of the Week:______________________________________________

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

Sabrina Hanavan is team Morningwood's Player of the Week for her 2 great defensive grabs against the Deathballs, even though 1 of them was on the opposite side of the field from her. She was all over the place on Sunday, and she even tried to catch a ball with her face! She got close, but unfortunately for her the ball bounced away. Someday Sabrina, someday, and make sure you get that caught on camera!

The SF Natives want to nominate Cat Pignati & Jeff Plank from their team as Players of the Week. Cat pulled off a powerful double play in their matchup against Team SAAS, grabbing a pop-up and tagging the SAAS base runner out at first. Jeff gets the nod for his tough pitching and multiple tag outs.

Clara Porter of Team SAAS is another player of the week. She gets some credit for her wicked-awesome superhero outfit. If you don't know who Clara is, she was the girl sporting the American flag, and looking like the Statue of Liberty. Honorable mention goes to the Flabongo for also sporting a cape in celebration of this past weekend's theme.

2) Don't forget about the MID-SEASON PARTY this SATURDAY at BUTTER!
