Dodgeball: Yeah, Still Exists

The make-up shake up

With all the H8'ing going on one might think that NYC's BigAppleDodgeball dried up like the rights of gay people in California but that is far from the reality.

Dodgeball is still going on in full swing and last night marked our 9th week of play. Next week's games are the last official games before the play-offs begin and sadly I don't think the mediocre incredible David Barton Gym team stands a chance of making the cut.

In a sucker punch to the gut and a brutal kick to the face, David Barton's Bad News suffered a 6-0 defeat last week knocking our potential 4th place spot down to 8th. Then, during last night's thunderdome we lost 3-0 to Gym Bar's GymNasties but won 2-1 against The Stonewall Riots. Our 2-1 win means we won the game against The Riots but it's still not good enough for us to make the top 4 teams entering the play-offs.

It should be noted, however, that what the David Barton Team lacks in playing we make up for in unlimited flair fierceness and team spirit. Our facepaint has become legendary.

The bottom line is: whether we win or lose, we have fun and we popped some incredible friendships out of this season. But then again, the above statement is just what losers say to make themselves feel better.

RAGE!

Dodgeball: Bring Your Rage

Tops (L2R): Zak, Mehmet, Robin

Trust me. My team knows rage and despite our 3-3 win/loss last night we were a force not to be reckoned with. We played hard and lasted until the last few seconds of every match.

We played The Stonewall Riots at 9PM losing 2-1 but kept them on their feet the whole time and eventually beat them in the last game during the time's up sudden death match.

At 9:30 we were up against the hard hitting GymNasties who we easily defeated 2-1 in the first two games but then swept us out before we knew what was coming. Our last man standing and MVP of the week, Zak, defended our honor by dodging balls like a knife through the air until four balls came at him once and he no other option than to get hit.

Good playing to both Stonewall and Gym Bar.

New standings will be posted later today on BigAppleDodgeball.com
