Bracket Results
We had our best participation in the bracket pool ever yesterday. It came down to the final game between myself, Smithkey and Frank. Thanks to a controversial call that sent the game into extra innings, I was able to win $57 in a tie-breaker. The official results are below. Great season everyone.

Thanks for the bogus call Nate.
I still owe you some drinks as a consolation, Mike. Don't let me forget. haha
Sorry Mike, I made the best call I could...in hindsight I think we should have replayed the whole play. I just made a safe call at first and no one could definitively overturn my call. I never saw the ball hit Sandra, and she told me it never hit her. I know people will say "why would she say it hit her" but I trust her word. Also I didnt award Superbad a run for obstruction.
I didn't see it hit her either, either way the jammers scored 4 runs that inning. They didn't all come from that call.
Not sure what you are talking about Geoff. The play in question was in the bottom of the 5th with 2 outs and the Jammers winning 3-2. Had she been called out instead of safe when the ball hit her sliding into first it would have been the final out of the game and I would have won the bracket because of the tiebreaker. Does not really matter the Jammers still won the game but I have to give Nate shit for costing me the dollars.
I tend to trust the reaction of the 10 people watching from first base sidelines that it did hit her. Besides, WTF is up with so many people sliding into first base? I think it slows you down.
Smithkey I dont know what you are talking about. I made the original call and my call was safe. I never deferred from that, only asked the other umps if they saw it differently and not one of them could say they did. Maybe you heard the crowd calling Sandra out but I never called her out.
Might need to think about a no sliding into 1st base rule...I know Souder would agree...
Red Card!
Nate- I never said you called her out, you made the call of safe and stuck to your guns. I am just saying you blew the call.
I agree with the no sliding into first rule. I have played in another kickball league in Lakeland that had that rule as well as a softball league that also had the no sliding into first rule. You are allowed to overrun first base for a reason. Someone is going to get their ankle broken. Good thing I never play first.
Agree to disagree...sorry you lost money tho...
