ABCDEFG- they are due.
Ligers- Pete Rose never bet against his team.
PBC- riding the train till they lose.
Shockers- cause you're mom said so.
Super Bad- They are good.
Jammers- They are hot. Like their team is playing, not their physical appearance.

Chandler said...

Ugh... picks again. Thought we just did these.

Growlers - YLLiaqoawefj can't score any runs. Growlers learn to close a game after last weeks' collapse.

Ligers - Pete Rose probably did bet against his team. He lied about everything else... why not that? Anyway, Ligers win big.

PBC - Although, this could be an upset game. But the fastest Nate has run lately was at Huffman's wedding... running away from the garter.

Shockers - Gorecki is back! And he's supposed to host a hair dye party. Hurry up with that shit, Mike. The grey ones grow too fast!

Supa - Gonna be ugly.

Jam - Wow the 8:30 games are going to be a bloodshed.

Growlers – Game of the week, You Looked a Lot Better Last Year is in the dumps this season. Growlers are gaining on some recent losses and mounting a comeback with a Battle of the Bulge, similar story to every dude that lines up to kick with whomever that Growler catcher’s name is by their side.

Ligers – This is going to be the rebound game for the Ligers. And much like any rebound partner, this team gets abused. HTPT is back in a big way, sporting the SHOCKER for the game as the ligers come back raging this week. Jacked Up won’t stand a chance against the raging Blue.

PBC – I’m disappointed in TBN this season, they showed so much promise last season, of which now I recall was all hype and a fluke their record was as good as it was.

Shockers –Shockers team isn’t nearly as good as the one that beat Ligers 8 – 0 last week, however, they don’t need to muster up much Purple to put up a W against a flailing Ballic team.

Supa - Gonna be ugly.

Jam – Gonna be uglier, at least Supa knows when to have fun and hold punches on a week opponent. The Jam just doesn’t care and Punches Munchkins. No matter what team is up, they bring the YELLOW HURT.

Growlers v. YLL
When I didn’t make picks at all, we lost. When I picked us to win, we lost. When I picked us to lose, we lost. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say there seems to be a trend occurring. Hoping to buck this trend, I’m going to refrain from picking and see how that turns out.

Ligers v. Jacked
So there’s gonna be a guy running around in a giant Shocker costume?? Two thumbs up…er... three choicely positioned fingers up to that – Ligers win!

PBC v. TBN
Hmm I REALLY want to say the Nuts pull this one out just because everyone will assume this is an easy one for PBC and because we were winning for 6 innings against them last week (*tear*). But Deeks will have worked up so much sweat that Nate and the other fast fuckers slip and fall (literally and figuratively) to their demise once again. (Yes, I’m going to ride this Deeksweat thing to the ground)

Shockers v. Ballics
Shockers take this one easy, but neither team makes it to the bar. At least, I never see many of them. But I also don’t see much of anyone outside the peripherals of the karaoke stage sooooo maybe that’s why.

GBD v. Superbad
Yikes! I seriously feel bad for the old folks. Go easy on ‘em, Supa.

HBHT v. ToeJammers
Double Yikes! Honey Badgers will wish they had picked this game for a super hero theme b/c they’ll need all the super powers they can conjure to score a run here. Rubs and his well-conditioned clan show no mercy.

JD said...

Growlers over YLLINAD. Jessica gets fired up over the losing streak wills the team to victory. If they play that same damn song they played the ENTIRE game last week, I will kill each and every one of them....starting with Lauren.

Ligers over JackedUp....Haven't seen either of this teams play, but Chandler's a dick. At least Litman is good people.

PBC over Beer Nuts....Agree that this is probably an upset, but Chandler's a dick. Even without our star pitcher and asian, the kickball gods are on our side after we got screwed out of the Crystal thing. Predict Seiler will accidentally kill Nate and Angie while running the bases.

Shockers over Alcoballics....Ballics have lost their last 2 by 19 runs and the Shockers have won their last 2 by 24. Could be a mercy rule.

SuperBad over Guys and Balls.... Guys and Balls will spend the whole game screaming at SuperBad to turn down that damn music.

TJ's over Honey Badgers. HBHT have a lot of chicks on their team, so good chance Rubs will be receiving a lot of restraining orders on Friday.

Litman said...

So....as of right now I think we should all root for a tie between Growlers and YLLDONHGNOISND. We win and Jess owes everyone :)

Chandler said...

Come on.... TIE!

Fat Kid said...

Growlers - I mean c'mon, the growlers can't be THAT bad....right?

Ligers- Bounce back game for the ligers and my favorite color is blue

PBC- deekSweat + beer nuts = a whole lot of nastiness, and i love nastiness

Shockers- the ballics really are that bad, plus Trini owes me a pedicure

Supa- the big brown turds cruise to a shutout.

TJs- alittle inside info tells me the TJs will be terrible this week, but they still win in a close one. you heard me.

Nate Dawg said...

Growlers over You look like…
Both teams play great defense but the Greenies make the occasional mistake out in the field. Jess and the Growlers will capitalize and redeem themselves for last week’s collapse.

Ligers over Jacked Up
If Jacked Up shows up this week with the rag-tag group of players (mostly girls) that they showed up with last week at the 6:30 game the Ligers will put up double digits for the second time this season. It means something if Chan is actually picking his team to win.

TBN over PBC
I cannot bring myself to pick against my team this week. PBC is riding high but they have played their best on field 2. Game is on field 1 where TBN thrives, Fast Fuck and Nate will own the base paths and keep the Deeksweat to a minimum. Might cost me beers tonight but I have 8 coming to me so maybe it will just be a wash.

Shockers over Ballics
Shockers have scored the 2nd most runs at 37 this season. Ballics have given up a league leading 34 runs this season. Gorecki is back with his league leading 72 errors on the season and with the wind blowing out on field 2 this game could get ugly quick.

Supa over GDB
GDB will have a lot of trouble scoring runs off the great pitching performance from CJ which he brings game in and game out. Plus half of GDB leave the game in the 3rd inning to get home for a 9:30pm bedtime. No Frank and Sandra, no problem. Supa wins big.

Jammers over HBHT
I think HBHT is turning into a sleeper team for the rest of the season. They are a lot better than their record shows but the Jammers come in playing at the top of their game. Game is closer than most will think. Jammers still win, Tony still screams Jacob’s name after getting a single.

Natalie said...

Not a lot of deviation in the picks this week...

Growlers - last week I was the ONLY person to pick YLLINaD...and that decision is going to cost me 4 beers. I'm choosing to learn from my mistakes this week.

Ligers - I still don't know who Jacked Up is... and, well, Ligers are awesome. Liiiiiigers!

PBC - PBC not only has Deeks, they also have my lucky shoes. With that awesome combination I am predicting an undefeated season! Yep. Mark it down, DPT.

Shockers - the Ballics have been off all season. I think this will be a close game but, in the end, the Shockers come out on top.

Superbad - I would love to see GBD pull off the upset of the season this week, but we all know that isn't going to happen. This, unfortunately, will be a blowout.

Toejammers - I don't know what Kevin's special sauce is this week, but I'm betting it will overcome the HBHT defense. Toejammers by a landslide this week.

If I owe you a beer from last week, I'll be at the bar for about an hour tonight.

Growlers v. You Look Like I Need A Drink
Game of the week, for sure. These are two closely matched teams and it could go either way. Growlers are feisty…..You Look Like is….ummm….huh. I guess I don’t know much about YLL so I’m going with the Growlers to win. Especially now that Jess is making picks and has deployed her secret non-pick weapon it will push her team to victory.

Ligers v. Jacked Up
Ligers have great defense and I don’t know anything about Jacked Up other than what I see in the standings. I’m not aware of a theme game or anything this week so I predict a snooze-fest. Ligers win. But…I’m still hoping for someone to bring back a little Bull and throw a chair or do something crazy just to spice things up a little.

Pitches Be Crazy v. THEE Beer Nuts
As Deeks rounds the bases he leaves a trail of sweat and TBN just can’t keep their footing. TBN slips and PBC beats them while their down. DeekSweat FTW!!!

Shockers v. Alcoballics
It’s a battle of the Urkel’s tonight on Field 2! While the Ballics out pocket-protect the Shockers, Field 2 has been spelling bad news for the once mighty Ballics. Shockers pull out a win but fun is had by all. Ballic will pwn the spirit category tonight, though. Hot Tub Party Todd makes many guest appearances throughout the game.

Guys, Balls & Dolls v. SuperBad
Favorite commentary this week…. “Guys and Balls will spend the whole game screaming at SuperBad to turn down that damn music.” LOL!!! Yup. Probably so. It’s usually loud enough that I can’t even hear the catcher or base coaches. GB&D is going to feel like someone put sandpaper in their Depends tonight.

Honey Badgers Hit That v. ToeJammers
HBHT is bound to pull out an upset pretty soon. Just not sure it will be this week. Christian shows up this week after not having washed his feet for 3 weeks waiting for Trini to deliver on the pedicure he is due. Sadly for everyone, it still doesn’t happen tonight and Christian continues to let his toenails and feet marinate another week. All the while he bides his time waiting for her sweet, sweet chocolate fingers to be ready for the mess he’s got brewing in those cleats.

Alison,
In response to your comment 'I’m still hoping for someone to bring back a little Bull and throw a chair or do something crazy just to spice things up a little.'
I'm sorry I've let you down this year. I know some of my teammates might be surprised too. I'll crank it up a notch. Let the games begin.

Alison said...

Thank you, Brian. Thank you so much.

Griff said...

Too many lobsided matchups this week...

Yeaga's v. YLLINSP - Two top-tier teams from last season desperate to find a win. But a lowly 1-4 start for the finals runner-up has those green shirts wreaking of overachiever last season. I expect Jess to rally the orange crush this week to keep the over-.500 season alive. Growlers win.


Ligers vs. Jacked Up - Last week's Shame of the Week, Big Blue big blew. After this week, it'll start getting bumpy 'til week 10, which is a looong time to wear a giant stink-finger costume. They won't lose this week but I'm not giving up hope. I have 9 free beers coming my way so who do I need to inebriate to make this upset happen?? Ligers still win, but it'll be close.


PBC v. Nuts - There's not enough baby powder for all the sweaty nuts this week...yea i know, obviously. PBC won't be on upset alert till Superbad in 2 weeks. Nate needs a "beat-the-TJ's" kinda performance to hang in this one. PBC wins...deodorant loses.


Shockers v. 'ballics - Well the reds could still compete for the most theme games played this season...that's Crystal Pitcher-worthy, right?? Grimace rolls this week.


Supa v. Old Spice - Getting worked 13-0 by the other winless team.....who ALSO did a theme? That's pretty bad, gramps. Superbad wins...Geritol loses.


Toejammers v. Honey Badgers - The Honey Badgers' Superheros theme was cute last week...couple that with a losing record and you have a team posed to switch over from the Chalice of the Others running and into the Crystal Pitcher hunt. The Axis of Lovable Losers will embrace you. Matt did a solid job pitching last week so Soul Glo is giving Rubs another week off. Fat Kid's toe-jam will continue to marinate as Trini will probably not show up tonight. Toejammers win.

Alison - excellent commentary. Griff - I am bringing the belt this week for good luck.
