When the Cat's Away...

The Mice Play!
Or so I hear. I couldn't make it to this week's game (a wedding in sunny California was my excuse). But I heard the game went on. Sadly, I have no pictures to post- but if you have any you want to share- pass them along.

Word Up From The Captains (The Captain's Corner)
Sofa Kings
We played hard, but the Abe Lincolns had a solid (and somewhat excessive) bunting strategy that helped them take the lead. I'd like to give a shout out to Eileen, who is the first person I've ever heard of getting walked in kickball, and to Hakan, who came to our game post-call and unfortunately pulled a muscle on his first kick. Thanks for your dedication and we hope you're feeling better!

Balls Deep

Leader on offense was Gio who nearly kicked for the cycle. There were some nice fielding plays: Brock Williams had a nice double play "peg." Mike Simpson "terminated" himself after losing his shoe and dropping a fly ball. We also had some intense post-game flip cup action at Christopher Martin's after the game.

Uniballs

It seems as if Uniballers also have lives on the outside of the kickball diamond. This was the dissapointing news uncovered this past Sunday, that and the fact that we tied due to the generous offer of Team Wrecking Balls to let the game go on despite the fact we only had 7 players. There are 7 uniballers that eat, breath and sweat kickball. Ryan, Dean, Sara, Saif, Rachel D, Christina, and Greg all met up at Studio Zee Tattoo parlor for matching Uniball tattoos after the game. We all got inked in unmentionable areas. The Play-of-the-day was an unassisted double play by Sara Smiley Smith, who caught a rocket up the middle then fired overhand to first base to nail the wrecking balls shell shocked baserunner. If the rest of the uniballers don't show their hearts next sunday, you're fucking fired.

Overheard... (The Gossip Corner)
"Wait, are we playing kickball or buntball? 'Cause I'm pretty sure I signed up for kickball."

"Second base was the farthest I've gotten!" "Then you should consider getting laid"
