Last night had quite the predicament. On one side of the after party tug of war was BAD! and their 'official' after party at Uncle Charlie's. On the other side was some rowdy dodgeballers wanting to change it up and head to Boxer's for some after party unofficial fun. While neither seemed quite appealing (Uncle Charlie's is so out of the way and Boxers is next week's after party) it seemed like people were rallying for a change. So the line was drawn in the sand, either you go with the official after party or you head for the unofficial after party. The lesbians have been doing it for seasons, so we found it hilarious some dodgeball people got into such a huff over it. So in the event of not wanting to go to the "official" after party, is it wrong for people to have their own "unofficial" after party at a place of their choosing? Sound off and let us know what YOU did last night. As for us, we said to hell with both and choose our own cozy bed instead. xoxo

One team and 3 extra people while a quaint gathering is more anti-social then a after play social. I do agree with GG that UC's location definitely deterred people from coming out last night.
One team plus three sounds social to me.
The ugly boys from Therapy were trying to get all of the pretty people of the other teams to go to Boxers, because well none of them ever get laid.
PARTY FAIL.
UC location is so out of the way, it can't be surprising that many people chose to go home or chose another venue/bar.
All I know is that I went to UC and had a great time! Free pizza and whiskey, plus all those cute boys? How could you go wrong?!?!
I was at Uncle Charlie's and i will say that it is one of my favorite after parties so far. Great group. The rest of you missed out!
I think it's ridiculous that there was such a big deal made. Like GG said, (most of) the girls do it every week (no judgment of course). I understand that we want them to be our sponsor but this trail is indicative of what would happen next season and it seems to me like very few people care to travel down that far.
With all that said, I had a blast! Music, Wii and Pizza = fun, fun, fun!
Good music at UC...
I'm sure UC Lounge is wonderful. It's also one of the most (read the most) inconvenient bar we've had an Post Play at the last 2 seasons. Without taking a cab, there is literally no way of getting there in less than 30 minutes (unless you feel like jogging) so on a night where the play finished so late (I was the last one out at 9:45) that's a long way to travel so far out of the way. this is the first post play i haven't attended since the first one last season, and while being flat broke right now played a part in the decision, had I had money to drink I definitely wouldn't have gone to UC.
Speaking of finishing so late last night, could the refs maybe take a chill pill and not scream at the teams that happen to be last on the schedule when things are running late? It's not our fault things are behind. if you maybe kept tighter reins on the time between games throughout the whole night, the problem wouldn't exist (also, incorrectly informing Splash they had to forfeit, thereby forcing them to to go get their phone to show you that's nowhere in the rules might prevent unnecessary delays, basically, KNOWING THE RULES MIGHT PREVENT UNNECESSARY DELAYS)

hahahahahahaaaaa, did that actually happen? That is bad. But not in a good way. Like bad as in embarrassing.
Uncle Charlie's is far and caters to old men who couldn't get into the townhouse or the east side club... if you want them to be a sponsor then let us know this is the case to show more support...if not it just seems random and pointless to go to the east side I mean Eastern Bloc was already kinda shot down for its location... how bout we go to Metropolitan in Brooklyn for that matter...
we should try to pursue sponsors that aren't bars!
The polls are so pointless. Therapy, Penelope and Woody's-- it would be one thing if your teams WERE actually the cutest, but they aren't. Going around to all the computers in your office to vote only makes you look sad. There is no way any one of those teams would have gotten more votes than the number of people actually on those teams. So silly.
yea woodys is the hottest team in their shit-colored shirts ....barf
seriously? mike mezzano, scott ryan, nick p, lukas, chris hudson... and youre saying these aren't the cutest teams? get over yourself @anon 10:29.
@Anon 11:33 PM,
I went to Uncle Charlie's and did not see anything close to what you are describing. All I saw was a friendly empty space, with a very generous bartender, for us dodgeballers to take over.
Have you ever tried to secure 18 sponsors for a league? You learn to take what you can get sometimes. Want to make a difference join the dodgeball board, otherwise quit yer bitching.
For all of you debbie downers...shut the "f" up and be grateful for having such a great board!
@11:32, you're right those are some hot teams. Even if they weren't there's no reason to be nasty. But 10:29 is right, the polls are pointless. Someone always stuffs the ballot box. It was someone on Woody's who made Chance win the biggest freak in the sheets thing, or at least claims it was him.
Apparently GG is on Woody's. My guess is Jason
Who says gay men are vapid, stunted, catty, immature, women-envying (and emulating) little boys? These posts, polls and bitchy anonymous comments are really working to disprove those unpleasant stereotypes! I'm so glad to be part of the gay community. Carry on, boys!
I completely agree that we need more non-bar sponsors. Why are so many bars sponsors? We should pursue sponsors that give us more. No matter what bar we go to, we can get drink specials or some special treatments. It doesn't matter if they are a sponsor or not. If BAD brings 100 people to a bar that usually has 8, we should get specials and they should know to put on more bartenders. The league should make sure these places know we are coming and just how much liquor we put away.
I like the idea of clothing sponsors, or stores; places that would offer us more than just 300 bucks and a feeling of entitlement to go to their establishment and spend most of that back on booze. I liked the days of free underwear, shorts, gym passes and blowjobs...
@strange Bird - I think the blowjobs are still free or at least mine are.
Reason to go with the plan: OK so I plan these after parties for us all to have a good time and successfully get these sponsors to sponsor us next season. Without these sponsors, we will not have the money to run the league. Everything I do, is in the best interest of the league. I love this league and want us to continue to grow socially in the community. I agree that everyone has the right to go where they want to. I just hope everyone knows that I really plan these parties with everyone in mind. And im not GG. Haha. XOXO
i love you Jason K and appreciate what you do!!
As far as the poll goes, I'm not on Woody's, but I voted for them. They've got Jason, Richie, who for an older guy is HOTT, and Mini-Norman, who is YUMMY!!!
Richie the fireman with the hose and that cute New York accent.
"How you doin'"
people will do what is convenient. uncle charlies is in an inconvenient location so therefore wasn't well attended. so what if a small group of people wanted another option - why does it concern any of you?
No disrespect to the board or Jason who truly do a great job (thanks for the massage guy on monday btw!), but if you're going to insist on chasing sponsors in faraway locations, then don't be surprised if some people don't want to go.
