'Ballics - *Alert! KB Society News Flash: Gorecki plays a damn-good catcher. YOU WILL WIN.

Ligers - can't see them losing back-to-back games in the "Boobies" conference...get the offense going so the refs can't blow it!

Soul Glooo - Goodwill Games night...last season was a 2-2 nail-biter. Will SuperRandom shake up this weeks picks with a loss? I picked this winner out of a hat.

Nickel Beers - They need more scoring after the 1st inning, but a close loss to the Jammers could be the spark they needed this week.

Yeagabombs - 'bombs can still score...this week is "pad-the-stats" week to make up for their loss. Sorry TBN. Crush Brew!

Shockers - heard I'd Kick That is the early dark-horse team...Not So Fast! The Shockers are in town... WHOOPS!

Balls 'n Dolls - Game of the Week. Gut-check time for the Frollos (literally). Get your doughnuts ready..this one could be good. Balls 'n Dolls in a close one.

Off Constantly - gotta pick a winner...uhhh Team Fab made B'n D sweat last week...but maybe Ty finally breaks out the sharpest tools in his shed this Thurs. Idk I'm reaching here..

Smithkey said...

Alcoballics vs PMU- The Ballics find themselves in an early season must win game if they have any hope of being regular season champs. The task will not be easy as they face a PMU team coming off a come from behind victory against the Ligers last week. Just like the cast of Jersey Shore the Ballics were losers last week but I do not see this as a trend and think the champs will bounce back. Ballics win a close one.

WAKAshame vs Ligers- Tough pick as both teams played a great game last week although only WAKAshame came away with something to show for it. As long as the ACC officiating crew isn't overseeing this game, I like the Ligers in this one because WAKAshame has not shown the ability to string together wins very often.

Superbad vs ToeJammers- If Frank sticks to his promise of playing every game with random positions I do not see them winning a single game this season. It will not matter this week as the Jammers win no matter what lineup Superbad goes with.

CT20 vs Dollar Wells- Still not sold on CT20 as they barely beat a Superbad team that played with a random lineup. Dollar Wells will win this one as long if their lead off man leans to keep the ball on the ground. Dollar Wells win behind the wheels of their best player.

Yeaga vs Beer Nuts- Despite being shut out last week the Yeagabombs will put on an offensive show this week against a suspect Beer Nuts defense. Thee Beer Nuts shrug it off and continue to drink beer.

Shockers vs POG (Pants on the Ground)- This week the team with the most unoriginal and cliche name in recent kball history will learn what it is like to play a good team. Shockers shut them out and shut them up even though Flo still knows how to play all positions.

BND vs PGB- Two teams who hate to lose square off in what looks more like a scene from Gangs of New York then a kickball game. After all the blood is shed the Dead Rabbits and PGB emerge victorious.

Team Fab vs Off Constantly- Who cares, Team Fab wins

Alcoballics - PMU's win last week had more to do with Liger errors than their own ability. I'm taking the Ty-less Alcoballics here.

Wakashame v. Ligers - I'm taking the Ligers to bounce back from that Chandler error by forcing him to apply stick em or some other tackified substance about which Chandler could write novels (thanks to Souder?). Either way, I'm glad I'm not playing in this one.

Superbad v. TJs - I really want to put my money on 00 and pick Superbad, but I can't against a typically solid toejammer team. TJs ftw.

Cameltoes 2.0 v. Dollar Wells - Why cameltoes 2.0? I would have gone with a different name that kept in the spirit of CamelToes: MooseKnuckles. Maybe that will be for the third iteration? Even with the lack of name progressiveness, I'm picking them to win as I just don't think DW's win 2 in a row.

Yeagabombs v. TBN - With a team name like "yeagabombs", I have to ask: when is Jersey Shore theme night? Might I recommend tonight? TBN, coming off a loss to IKT, yall can don basketballs and come as Snickas. Yeagas, you'll be the guido gym teacher and knock them out in one fistpump. Go! (Yeagas to win)

Shockers v. I'd kick that - Good first game for IKT. It helps to start with TBN, but a win's a win. Yall will want to keep those pants high and tight this week with the shockers coming in aiming for penetration. Whether or not they get two in the pink and one in the stink is irrelevant, though, as they're leaving with a W regardless.

BND v. Playground bullies - PGB didn't look like the team coming off a 2-season hiatus last week, as my team managed to make every mental and physical error, offensively and defensively, we could short of crapping our pants on the fi... hell, for all I know someone might have crapped their pants on the field. We were that bad. I won't be sold on PGB until I find out that they can win when their opponent doesn't play like the Gorrie Elementary girls b-squad, or that my team actually is the Gorrie Elementary girls b-squad. So even though PGB has proven their ability to beat Off Constantly in an astoundingly flacid state, I'm still taking BND.

***GAME OF THE WEEK***

Team Fabulous v. Off Constantly - last season this game ended in a 4-4 tie thanks to a late inning bases clearing triple from the yet to be known as OC. This season a retooled Ty's team is looking to bounce back from the ugliest defensive game we've played since that 4-4 draw v. the pinkos. Meanwhile TF is coming off a close loss to BND. Can they bounce back from that to beat Off Constantly? My bet is no, at least not until after the game. OC 2-0.

Alcoballics - Gorecki-itis consumed the team last week as balls were dropped and mental errors were made. Maybe it was the cold...maybe it was all of the hair product and fist pumping...or maybe it was the afterglow of last season (although nothing was glowing quite like Lifshin's face). Whatever it was, I assure that you it was nothing a team huddle at MacDinton's couldn't fix. Ballics return to play solid D tonight and prove that they are still the team to beat.

Wakashame - Two teams with opposite opening weeks. WAKA played a stellar game on defense, even the bumpit girls were making plays (could be they were upset that the Alcobitches had better hair). The Ligers fell apart against an undermanned squad. WAKA wins this one big.

Jammers - Which team and lineup comes out from Superbad tonight? Will it matter? If Frank sticks to the random lineup, this one won't be pretty. Rumors were circulating last week that his team would return to its normal ways. I'm picking Soul Glo in a close one, as even if Frank goes random to start the game, he'll abandon that as soon as needed, but it may be too late.

Camel Toes 2.0 - I don't enough about either team to make a pick here, so I'm going with the team that has proven it can win

Yeaga - Yeaga played a fantastic game last week against the Shockers only to come up empty handed. They will be looking for some revenge this evening.

Shockers - I'd Kick That couldn't get their chant right last week. I look for that to be the only thing they excel in this evening. The Shockers play solid defense and that should be enough.

Bullies - BnD wins by 1 run over Team Fab while the Bullies dominated TY's JV squad. I think the Bullies needed week 1 to shake off the rust and until BnD starts acting more like the team of old (arguing calls, biting the heads off of kittens), I can't side with them.

Off Constantly - another crapshoot, but I'm going to say Ty gets his only win of the season tonight.

Some really good commentary coming in with the picks this week.

Here's mine (and I guess Grifter's picks, but I'll wait for him to re-post this to make it official)

AlcoBallics -- Let's see the team with stacked hot chicks vs the team with no chant that only had 9 players at the start of last week's game. That's a real tough one. Put Ball/Rhyme Dropping Gorecki at catcher and it's a slam dunk. Alcoballics! 1,2,3 Boobies!!!

WAKAshame -- I really want to see the Souder era get off to a better start, but not as much as I really want to win a free jack & diet tonight.

Soul Glo -- I flipped a coin. It was totally random. I figured it would add more to the experience, but disappointingly it didn't. I feel jipped.

$1 Wells -- thanks to Supebad's randomization in week one, we go into this week with still no info on Camel Toes other than I enjoy looking at one when I see one depending on the size of the camel. I tend to go for the smaller camels. Just sayin'.

Ybombs -- Orange Thongs vs Nate's boxers, Charlie's skidmarked tighty whities and Cathy's RRR shorts. I'm always a fan of the skimpy stuff so this seems like an easy pick. I'm going with the 70 proof.

Shockers -- I don't even know who they're playing but I'm not going to be the only one not to pick them and have to buy drinks. Nuff said.

Bullies -- If they can win with Frollo's ass out there, they can win any game.

Off Constantly -- In Vegas I took Team Fab +2 so hopefully it's close.

Florian said...

Ballics - Gorecki got the ding dong back (or did he lose it again?). Doesn't matter. With Duc back, the Ballics will win this one.

WAKAshame - Inside sources tell me that Chandlerina's pinky injury is worse than first thought. He will drop 2 maybe 3 balls tonight.

Jammers - The randomness confuses Frank and he lets the Jammers score the game winning run after making a throwing error.

Dollar Wells - They score just enough to win a close, low scoring affair

Yeagabombs - They look to score their first run this week and second and third against a suspect Nuts defense.

Shockers - Rob is extra motivated in this one looking to avenge a defeat on the volleyball courts last season. I'd Kick That keeps it closer than most expect but this Shocker team is now the favorite to win this conference.

BnD - Frollo looked slow last week. In a tight game with much arguing, BnD does just enough to win.

Fab - Sticking with the beat Off Constantly theme. Early in the season and they have not gelled yet.

YellowBird said...

Anyone like the idea of a side bet and pick who's going to be buying drinks tonight?

Grifter said...

This Week, Grifter's Picks brought to you by Grifter

Pick Me Up - because the Alchoballics 1,2,3 STINK! <-- actual text from NateDawg... not funny Nate.

Ligers- Bumpits. Book it.

Superbad - Frank, you better not blow this one like you did last week. The only thing "Random" about kickball is whether or not TY wears pants.

Dollar Wells - Without Thomas a victory might be tough this season, but Nate says they'll win, and they have those two fast fucks on their team.

Yeaga's - The Beer Nuts have Brooke on their team... she hasn't won a Bayshore KB game since the Winter/Spring season of 2009.

Shockers - Let's be honest, the ladies love them.

Bullies - kicked our butt last week, and with Officer Farva back in action I wouldn't drink anything without checking for a bar of soap.

Off Constantly - because you can't Beat Off Constantly... It loses its luster.

Florian said...

I hope you are wrong Nate! Geoff has the exact same picks as me so if he loses, so do I.

M. Gorecki said...

Alcoballics- Yes, I'll be catcher. Yes Duc will be back. And yes the girls will be in the shiney new red shirts that hopefully theyve "jeanette'd up". Ballics are back and so will be our victorys. Oh and suck it nate.

Wakashame- gotta root for them to stay on top of the standings so our embarassing 5-0 loss wont look so bad.

Jammers- im on the same bus as everyone else. until frank concedes with this whole random assignment thing, they will randomly keep getting picked by me to lose.

Dollar Wells- will these 2 teams please stop playing the same time as the ballics so i can do a "scouting report"? seriously i know nothing about you two. guess ill pick dollar wells so if i get caught staring at the camel toe ill blame it on the cheap liquor.

Yeaga- lock of the week. again suck it nate

Shockers- flo's pants will definitely be on the ground after this game.. he might even like it!

BND- i didn't hear any arguing nor did i see any decapitated kittens on the field last week. does that mean bnd is accepting my challenge to become crystal pitcher champs?!

Team Fab- pink vs blue. im choosing nates favorite color here. suck it nate!

Nate Dawg said...

Ok, I got Flo and Geoff losing...sorry guys had to go with someone and Im not picking myself

Rollo said...

Well I see one def wrong choice on flos list. Btw flo, slow? Pfft pleasssee. Race ya for a beer!

YellowBird said...

Cool, Nate. I'm going with Kristen buying drinks this week. I guess if none of us are right, nobody buys.

Any other takers out there? Who will be buying drinks tonight? This is a one drink side bet. Pick someone, if you're right all other takers owe you one drink.

Nate -- Geoff
Yella -- Kristen

Grifter said...

Side Bet - Maria...

Grifter has spoken.

Griff said...

I'll get in on that....

..ummm...is it possible for more than one person to pick Kristen?? She's got the most...daring picks on the board.

If not, then put me down for Marla I guess?

Brooke said...

SideBar: Bri/Grifter, neither have you!!!

bull said...
