Best Dressed and Underdressed

Last night's 2nd Annual Masquerade Ball was quite the scene filled with superheroes, leather, half naked men, and lots of drunken antics. Guess it's just another night at the Eagle! Those dodgeballers came out costumed and ready to drink, and they did both pretty well. We here at gg think we need to give props when props are deserved. First off is Wind's mildly humorous take on last season's end of the season party debacle. You see we won't name names, but someone took it upon themself to stand up and fight for dodgeballers rights everywhere. Unfortunately the idea didn't really fly with some dodgeballers so leave it to Wind to rehash last season's drama. While some thought it was funny, others were none too amused. Especially those parties involved.

Eeeek. Who would have thought one shirt with so many signatures could cause so many hurt feelings?? We are always here to pick anyone up...especially if it's the end of the night and we have been drinking for a while.

Mandy rocked the house with her take on the current epidemic in NYC...bed bugs! So leave it her to make light of the situation and win a free season of bowling while at it. Our favorite part of the photo isn't actually Mandy, but everyone around her giving her stankface. Well at least she's current!
Our favorite couple costume of the night were these Rocky Horror enthusiasts. We didn't think Rocky could get any hotter than that guy on Glee...


...but we think we could be wrong. We were left speechless by these two, and for us that is hard!

Runner up for Best Couples Costume was JP and his scrumptious boy toy. Kudos for doing a leather harness two years in row.

Yummy on both accounts.

We love that Scotty and his boys got creative, had some arts and crafts time, and made masks of their names. Sometimes it gets so dark in the Eagle, we need masks like these to let us know where the hotties are.

Hide your kids, hide your wife, and for heaven's sake hide your bulge.



Our favorite costume of the night had to be the ode to our favorite ladies softball team The Rockford Peaches from A League of their Own. 



"The time has come for one and all to play some ball! We're all for one and one for all". Brilliant on so many levels, but to get the outfit down to a tee like that takes some hard work. It also helps to be surrounded by some hot guys in barely there costumes. 

Sorry, we just couldn't resist. One photo just wasn't enough. Thrill us, chill us, fulfill us creature of the night...any time you want. xoxo

i thought last night was fun but last year was better. the costumes were better this time though. and i dont understand how anyone could get mad about wind's shirt. it was just making light of a stupid situation from last season. unless the two dont get along then i dont see what the drama is about. it was obviously a joke so just laugh at it. we are supposedly grown ups. also ms. conti and her boy toy looked better than the originals. good job ladies!

I can't believe you left out that hot new guy in the kilt! He looked beyond hot last night.

Eh, I'm going to take the unpopular side and say that Wind's costume was pretty mean actually. Mikey isn't in the league any more and he left on sore terms. He wasn't even at the party. Plain and simple this was mockery. NOW had Wind brought Mikey in on it and had him go as Andrew or Vanessa (although I don't think the poor kid could grow the facial hair to be either) then it would have been above brilliant.

Interesting debate - was Wind's outfit too mean? Or was the actual event that inspired the costume meaner? It's like what is the lesser of the two evils?

@6:11, I dont think Mikey's intent was to be mean or take anyones job, just to make things fair.

Wind's intent was to be mean and get noticed. Given the attention whore that he is, I'd say he succeeded.

Oh please. Mikey played the victim back then and he'll continue to do the same in this instance. No one gave a shit then and no one gives a shit now.

@Anon 8:30 Mikey, I thought you wanted nothing to do with this league! Andrew may be a lot of things, but he know's a joke when he sees one.

@Anon 8:33, you apparently give a shit enough to comment on it and Andrew gave a shit enough to put a costume together and Vanessa gave a shit enough to let it get under her skin last season. So I'd say you're pleanty wrong.

Andrew and Mikey are both attention whores, people. Both very funny as well. The difference is mikey didn't put a fat suit on and talk incessantly and suck up to Vanessa pretending to be Wind behind his back.

Plus more than anything Mikey showed he doesn't have the spine and quit the league, much to the pleasure of most of the players. He is old news. Get some new material, Wind. But I am happy to see GossipGays' comments are actually interesting again. Leave to Mikey to do it from beyond the grave!

Wait, who put on a fat suit?

Mean or not, that shit was funny. And that is what happens when you are succcchhh a control freak that you get bent out of shape over the voting habits of a not-for-profit dodgeball league because you realllllllyyy wanted to be part of the ultra-cool board. He embarrassed himself last season. Andrew just made it funny. Also, Mikey is incredibly mean spirited so... yea karma is a bitchy queen.

PS Andrew is not fat. I think he is kind of sexy and all types of clever.

Did someone really just say Wind is all types of Clever? Have you ever MET him?!?

Okay, I have to be a dose of realism, and I hate that I am even commenting on this horrible site, but in light of recent current events I feel like I have to. Folks, dressing up like someone to make fun of them, and saying horrible things about anyone on this blog anonymously is bullying. Think for a moment if someone dressed up as you at a party, or these horrible things were said about you anonymously on a public blog. Those things hurt no matter who you are or how "thick a skin" you have. Both these people you're so cruelly disseminating, regardless of past acts, are really good people. I know them each and have been on teams with both. But this behavior, this website, is no better than the behavior of those bullies that helped cause a group of gay youth to take their own lives. It was so cool to see so many people wearing purple last week in solidarity to pledge "It gets better.” Yet, after reading this site and the comments, I want to turn around to Dan Savage and say, "It stays the same." You commenters should be ashamed of yourselves. Demonstrate to the people that we all pledged to help protect last week that it does indeed get better and mean spirited things like this do not interfere with having a great time in a fun sports league. It really saddens me that a blog like this even exists among a group of gay adults that know just how much it sucks to feel singled out, marginalized and picked on. Andrew and Mikey, no matter what people say about you, I think you're both awesome. The rest of you: grow up and actually help it get better, not worse.

Amen, Trevor.

I agree with Trevor that this is all beyond juvenile. But I think equating Wind / Mikey with gay children that get picked on and commit suicide is a little extreme.

If you're going to go to go out of your way to stupidly bring attention to yourself (ie. cause a spectacle at an end-of-season dodgeball party or... parody the ridiculousness of said spectacle) - you're kind of dumb if you don't expect any backlash or attention in response. Especially when you play on a dodgeball league where there is an established website called "Gossip Gays" which exists solely to tear people apart.

I deep down think Wind and Mikey are both good people - and neither deserve to be treated like crap. But I really don't think we can turn both of them into total victims in this situation.

Oh, and yeah.. I'm going to post anonymously. Because the last thing I want/need are total morons talking shit about me on this dumb site.

Why is everyone talking about Andrew Wind? The bigger question is, who in holy hot hell is Chris Conti's boy toy? Speaking of Conti ... seeing him in this costume has finally cured this debilitating crush I've had on him all season. It is now transfered to the man meat in the gold lame hot pants. More info on him, please, Gossip Gay?

He's Matthew Camp and he is way hot.
