Wednesday Rant(s)

Oh... where to begin?
  • The Alcoballics and ToeJammers could not agree on a time to play their game BEFORE week 8.  Therefore, they're now playing on our "make up/fun week" (the 21st).  Too bad week 8 is based on the standings... which means there's no good way to order the teams (based on points and runs against) since AlcoJammers will be a half-game behind the rest of the league! Ugh, what a cluster-fuck.  This is just like the "Butterfly Effect," and completely invalidates the entire tournament seeding process. Way to go 'Ballics.  I'll see you in Hell (ie: Vegas)!
  • Florian is refusing to make picks the rest of the year due to his team getting their feelings hurt.  In his own words, it's "just better for the team" if he doesn't pick anymore.  Way to drop the Ball of Justice, Florian. I'm sure if your teammates did something that upset you, they'd totally change their routine.
  • DPT first reported in August that our party budget was reduced to pay for PAL parking. However, we have MLoop on camera saying they "worked it out" so we don't have to pay parking this year.  Call it what you will...
  • On an average night, about 200 cars go to PAL. This gives them about $1,800 a season.  So if MLoop negotiated us paying, say, $1,500 for parking... he actually got us a deal.  The PROBLEM with this is more people go to games than the party.  So taking it out of the party budget hurts the Party People more than having the general population pay PAL $1 each night. And you should NEVER fuck over the Party People.  Also, don't imply that we're getting free parking (see bullet point with video above).
  • Bull had a long phone conversation with Ginnie Springs. It then called me and left me a message. I'll probably call it back this weekend, but everyone else should check your voice mail too.

Flo you officially have no balls...new nickname "Hermy-Flo" I'll stop calling you that when you make your picks Flo.

Ginnie Springs has left me 22 messages in the past 3 days, told her that I would make a decision next week!!!

F U MLoop

Maria said...

So, did they ever update the rule book to accomodate the new rule of playing for one hour or 6 innings? Becauase if they didn't we technically beat Yeagabombs and just played an extra inning for "fun."

Nate Dawg said...

Maria are you still talking? lol...jk...haha???

trinihic said...

VEGAS BABY!!!! whoooooo

Chandler said...

Maria and the Ligers are desperate for a win.

Brie said...

Hey, it's not our fault that the fine folks up at WAKA decided to have a game scheduled for Founders Cup week...especially knowing that there was a team from the Bayshore league signed up for it.
It's also not our fault that the only time they could accommodate us was a Tuesday night when people have other places to go, things to see and people to do.

But for now, all I really care about is that in 24 hours, I'll be getting ready to leave work so I can head out to board a plane for VEGAS, BABY!!

Maria said...

Nate, that's not nice. All I want is to win one game. Preferably this weeks. :D

Nate Dawg said...

Sorry Maria, you know I am just kidding. :) Dont worry you will win next week!

Brie/Ballics coming up with excuses like Rob/Shockers...lol

While you guys are all hungover on Sunday I will be running the Chicago Marathon...look for me next to the Kenyans...

Geoff said...

Just give us and the jammers a tie for purposes of figuring out who plays who on the last week? Does it really matter? Problem solved!

Now Flo, if you stop making picks I'm going to personally kick you in the balls; and tell anyone on your team that wants to bitch about it to come see me and they can get a nut punt too.

Man up to your team tell them this little secret: IT'S KICKBALL! What do you care if they don't like it? It's not like you were going to stay on the team... you've never been on ANY team more than two seasons. BOOM!

Florian said...

Little known fact Geoff. I was actually on the Beer Nuts for like 5 seasons.

Nate Dawg said...

God those were some rough seasons...lol

bull said...

It took awhile for me to answer, but I'm sooo glad I took the call!

Reeeealllyy WAKA, don't bust me up with your $1600 party budget!!

Alison said...

Geoff mentioned the best idea I've heard go around so far. Give the Ballics and Jammers a 0-0 tie for the time being.

Flo, make picks! Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it!

Smithkey said...

I agree as well, Ballics/Tj's get a 0-0 tie for the time being.

barflett said...

Nate, I think the proper nickname is Hermaph-flo-dite

Chandler said...

A 0-0 tie is not a "great" idea due to Runs Against being the first tiebreaker. Obviously... when you do play... Gorecki is going to give up 3 runs himself.

Butterfly Effect. You've already ruined the season. Thanks a lot, 'Ballics.
