You Say Goodbye, We Say Hello

PRESS PLAY!

The season is officially a third of the way over, and we have noticed a lot of changes this season from the last. Some of these changes are for the better, some for the worse and some for the more dramatic, our favorite being the latter of course. We obviously won’t cover all aspects of change in this post, and we encourage our vets to comment on what they see as the change from last year’s epic season to this year’s rather hum-drum season.

1. TEAMS: Goodbye American Apparel, Hello Penelope

We have to say, American Apparel had to be the cutest team last season. They had Lukus, Vanessa, both Matts, and Castellano. Even Rob, who was obnoxious and self involved, was a looker. We couldn't help but giggle to ourselves watching Wind parade around the gym every week with that pink dodgeball. Not content being just pretty faces, they were fun, excitable and even their uniform flair boosted how cute they were. Off the court everyone wanted to be their friends and on this blog everyone seemed to want to be in their beds. But we seemed to have lost that sponsor and the Angels/Princesses (which was it by the way?) have been split-up more than Vinny and James. Then stepped in Penelope. Perhaps the cutest place on Earth to have brunch has somehow been blessed with the cutest players as well. The common dominator being Lukus (yes, yes, we are totally in the LFC: Lukus Fan Club, who isn’t?), but he has now been joined by cuties Dom, Giuggugiolioguoili (that's how you spell it right?) , Dykey Mikey and completely dreamy newbies Nick and Tamika. Even their team name, Inglorious Brunchers, is cuter than if kittens and puppies could mate under a rainbow. They may not be the best players, but we’d catch or throw for anyone on that team.

2. CAPTAINS: Goodbye Mikey, Hello Monica

A whole diatribe could be written about how thrilled we are to see Eastern Bloc disbanded, but that would just encourage them to do that annoying cheer more at the after parties, so we’ll just focus on the fact that their annoying behavior stemmed from their loudmouthed captain, Mikey. All hatred aside, we are slightly jealous at how well Mikey was able make a team that tight, but we won’t miss having to hear him and his disciples on the court every week or watch their displays of public affections at the after parties. The good news is Mikey has been demoted to merely a player this year (obviously with much chagrin) and thusly cannot rally a new class of annoying teammates. The even better news is that now that Monica isn’t Mikey’s second banana, he has risen back to power and is the captain of Gaydar.net (make sure you check out their awesome shirts). We felt that Monica got a little soft playing with Eastern Bloc last season because of all the team love, but now, if the Facebook pictures are any indication, the fully agro, double throwing, Carrie Underwood loving heartbreaker is back and ready to rock the Tony D center. We’re also glad to see him rocking the after parties too. Steve, we love when you’re like this… Keep it up. Now if you were only single again…

3. LESBIANS: Goodbye Niki, Hello Stacey

Now we always love the ladies, and you never forget your first love. The first lady we fell in love with was none other than Niki. A woman who can pull off pigtails and still take out most of the best guys in the league with her mad throws and amazing catches is hard not to love. What we’ve noticed lately though is Niki has been getting quiet with age. We remember our first after party many moons ago where the flip cup table was dominated by Niki and she was unstoppable on the dancefloor. Now at the after parties she opts for a quiet moment with board members or sharing a drink with the other ladies in the corner. Well, thankfully our super fun lesbian spot has been filled by Stacey. This relatively new member has stepped it up this season. She’s made every after party a little more intense, stepped up her skills on the court, could out-wrestle Hulk Hogan and sings a fierce karaoke. Just as it was with Niki before, it’s hard to find a person in the league that doesn’t adore this lady. Maybe Niki has settled down because she’s found her soul mate Jacob, but that just gives Stacey more traction to keep up the great job she’s done in representing the ladies this season.

4. HOTTEST NEWBIE: Goodbye Trevor, Hello Andreau

Mezz may have won the hottest newbie last season, but people, he has a boyfriend and he’s 100% faithful (read: boring). So we are moving the title over to Trevor, who caused quite a few waves last season and some even this season. We’ll miss Trevor’s vacant glances around the flip cup table (“Is he checking me out or still trying to figure out how this game works?”) but we’ll happily welcome the come hither bedroom eyes of Andreau. Andreau has already been busy this season and seduced a few boys with his oddly huge arms, mischievous smile, and seamlessly unending supply of tight, slogan-laden shirts. The worst part of it all is that Andreau also is incredibly NICE. We remember meeting him at an after party and *he* started the conversation with *us*. We were so flattered, that is until we realized he was that nice to everyone, sssiiiigghhhh. So gone are the days of forced conversations with Trevor (he's REALLY pretty, but too quiet and shy for his own good) and now are the days of endless flirting with Andreau and the endless fantasizing of him playing dodgeball shirtless.

5. FLIPCUP: Goodbye Truth or Dare, Hello ???

We remember last season where you didn’t come to the flip-cup table unless you were ready strip on a pole or suck on a toe. From the moment the first person uttered the words, “Now that you lost you have to do a truth or dare,” we were in love with the idea. It landed us some prime makeouts, hilarious memories and more fodder for this site than we knew what to do with. However, some little natches complained that the truth or dare aspect of the game deterred them from participating. So the board, in their infinite wisdom, has been trying to keep the nasty factor out of the game. Policing a drinking game? Really? What next? Salad bars instead of pizza at the parties to curb adult obesity? Flip-cup is fun and all, but it was even more fun when spiced up. We’ll play along with the board and say that maybe truth or dare flip cup isn’t the best way to go, but let’s think of something to make it more fun than just the same way every college kid plays. If you ask us, “Strip-Cup” has a nice ring to it…

6. THE BOARD: Goodbye Old Vanessa, Hello New Vanessa

After what we saw as a lukewarm attempt at being Commissioner last season, we have to say Vanessa has stepped it up this season. We weren’t sure she was even the right person for the job last season because she was following some incredible people before her. Paul the *old* Commissioner could command a presence like nobody’s business and ran the league with an iron fist and a devil's laugh. Vanessa came in a little weak, but this season she’s hitting her stride. We don’t know what happened down in Brazil, but she’s stronger, more decisive and shaping the league in a more fun, welcoming way. She’s even thwarted some of our best attempts at turning this league into a big gossipy mess (like with number 5). She’s also given a lot of respect to the sport we play. The refs are better, the rules are tighter and most of us have a pair of shorty shorts that would make Norman blush all because of her. Keep up the good work V.

Those are a few of the differences we have noticed and welcome you all to submit yours; good or bad. Earlier we stated that this season has been pretty hum-drum but we have 8 more weeks to make this perhaps the best season yet for BAD! We encourage you all to be bold: make out with that guy or gal you’ve had your eye on, take your shirt off at the flip cup table or get in that cage and dance your heart out to that Bon Jovi song. Just please make sure we’re there to see it. xoxo

And The Winner Is (Thrice As Nice)...

So what maybe we didn't win an award at the End of the Season bash, we decided it was best to create our own so here are the 3rd Annual results for the The GG's! We asked for you to vote for your favorites, and a lot of you told us who was the hottest and best in BAD! So without further ado, the winners:

Best HHB (Hidden Hot Body): Seth - looks like you figured out the secret behind this tall, dark, and handsome stranger. Now how do we get his shirt off more?

Spunkiest: Thai - C'mon is there anyone who bounces around the court better? Or for that matter makes playing look like so much fun? We think not.

Lady you would most like to make your lady: Niki and Gladiator Jen - we love a good tie and who doesn't love these two?

Most agro on the court: Symmes - If you have seen this man play you will know why everyone thought he can be a tad aggressive when you are on the other side of the court.

Person You'd Most Like To Be On Your Flip-Cup Team: Monica - listen they don't call her the one flip wonder for nothing. If this bitch is on your team, you ain't got nothing to worry about.

Makeout Bandit: Gary - listen we have heard he's a good kisser, so why should someone hog all of his affection? He's cute, young, and well if the bottle at the flipcup table is any indication, he's got lots of fans.

Cutest Couple: Carolina and Lori - these two are so cute it makes us feel all tingly inside. Who doesn't love a happy ending?

Favorite team: Eastern Bloc - if you remember anything about this season it's how much team spirit this group had. From the chants, the playdates, and all of the group love, we hope an orgy video surfaces one day.

Dodgeballer You Like To Get Drunk With - Monica: Between this and the flip cup we wonder if she comes to play dodgeball or moreso to go out afterwards. There is no one more fun to have an end of the night drunken coversation with than her, that is if we can remember any of those conversations.

Most Likely to Sleep With After Seeing Them Play - Symmes: Listen he may be agro on the court, but apparently it's exactly what turns you all on. Ok so maybe being beautiful helps, but honestly, have you seen this guy play?? He would make a celibate nun wet her seat if she saw him at the Tony Dapolito Center.

Most Memorable Moment Of The Season: The Masked Ball - granted from what you all can remember of it, it was the shit.

That ladies and gentlemen concludes our winners. So did the public get it right? Did your favorites win, or do you demand a recount? Sound off and let us know what YOU think. xoxo.

End of the Season Treason

Hey Lukus here, and you may remember from the American Apparel team aka Princess Power (miss you guys!!), and I am going to be taking a look back at the shitshow that was the End of the Season Dodgeball party. Memories may be hazy, but I have the lovely Cinderella to help me and you piece together the night. And what a crazy night it was, well let's see where to begin??

Well there were girls! Cinderella had a crush on the one in middle, but don't tell anyone.

And of course there were boys. The middle finger was not appreciated! You ruined a photo of some of the hottest guys in the league! Shame on you, Cinderella will tell her stepmother on you!
And of course who can forget Ms. Effie, aka Kiki, doing her rousing rendition of "And I'm Telling You" from Dreamgirls. This was a season in the making moment, because duh her name is Ms. Effie. Keep on rocking it out!

The board talked and gave out awards. Cinderella and I can't believe these people run our league, cater to our drunken antics, and come back to do it again next season. They must have a glutton for pain! Or have a constant thirst for beer.

Eastern Bloc came and cheered, chanted, and then they sang a song about dodgeball that sounded familiar. They even gave gossipgays a shout-out! Cinderella was mad she was left out of the song.

Aw Carrie 2.0, don't cry over your mirror. You are still pretty. Wait, doesn't a broken mirror mean 7 years of bad sex or something? You may wanna find a way to break that curse, and fast!

So Cinderella and I don't exactly know how all of the dirty dancing started happening, but man people were getting DOWN! Niki is showing Koray who is boss and taking control of that hot turkish ass.

Cinderella was surprised that Michael C knew how to get that low?? Just enough stomach to make all the boys go crazy, your mother taught you well!

Wow this is a Cubbyhole sandwich I want to be in! Between Mezzano, Niki, and Jay I wonder if there's any room for a pickle? Mine of course.

Cinderella likes to call this hot picture of Trevor and I "Having a blonde moment". If this were the 50's we would be dreamboats or something.

So when people weren't dancing their asses off, they were showing a lot of love in the form of kisses. Boys kissing boys, girls kissing girls, boys kissing girls, I mean nothing was off limits. Especially for Koray!

Jacob - we see you too! We totally blame the shots Ciniderella kept doing with these two for this kiss.

This picture is so hot, when it hit the internet it caused a small forest fire in Central Park. Cinderella offered you lucky boys a coin to flip to see who could bottom first.

We told you! Boys kissing girls! What you didn't see was Niki's hand up Cinderella's ball gown. Sneaky devil.

Ok, listen Vanessa, Cinderella and I like Mandy a lot. So it weirds us out to see you kissing someone else, especially someone we don't even know! Who you be mystery man?? Cinderella is steamed and she is ready to take off her one glass slipper and throw it at that mystery man so run for cover.

Wow a 4 way kiss, is this a picture from the next episode of Jersey Shore? Well at least Craig the ref looks like he is having fun! Cinderella approves.


It was a crazy night indeed at Therapy, but it looked like all of you dodgeballers had mucho fun. All of this kissing and dirty dancing really got Cinderella all fired up. You can see how my night ended for myself. Cinderella took full advantage of me, and then her princess friends joined in, and well, I did things that would make even Mickey Mouse blush. xoxo

Coppertone Twins?

We wonder if the Coppertone baby and Mezzano weren't seperated at birth somehow. Our favorite part is that while many of the boys of dodgeball wish they had the balls to do what Niki is doing, none of them actually got the chance to. Thank you Niki, love gossipgays. xoxo

Out With The Old, And In With The Newbies

There is a debate that rages on every season, and believe this if you can, it isn't for "who is the biggest bottom". With every season comes a smattering of new and often delicious boys and girls, and for some reason you dodgeballers devour them like they are a buffet in the Plano, Texas. So the question is which newbie has captured the hearts and attention of BAD! this season? We think we have finally found our answer.

At the Eastern Bloc karaoke afterparty on Monday we practically fell off of our stool when Michael M from Cubbyhole got up to sing his pretty little heart out. Granted we had always had our eye on him on the court, but he rocked out to Alanis on the mike and somehow managed to get even hotter. So now the debate begins, is there a newbie hotter than Michael or has he signed, sealed, and delivered a love letter to your heart as well. xoxo

Balls to the StoneWall

We don't even know where to begin about the shit show that was the end of the season party for BAD! on Monday night at Stonewall. There was dancing, there was hula hooping, there was making out, there were awards, there were shirtless boys, there was beer pong, there were rubber balls pelting people in the face, and there was a whole lotta drinking. BAD! celebrated the end of the season as only they knew how to by drinking the place dry!

The night started out innocently enough. Mixing and mingling for the happy hour special, noshing on some catered food, and flirting up a storm. Poppi and Niki served as the hostesses with the mostesses by MC'ing the Trophies (#1st for Gym Bar, #1st for Eastern Bloc for winning tournament), MVP's, and the "fun awards".

You wonder what the "fun" entails? Some of our favorites included the biggest flirts going to Scotty and Ruby, best hidden talent going to Mikey for his amazing, um, skill, best six pack going to Ken, most likely to have team orgy going to WOOF!, and our personal favorite most likely to end up on gossipgays going to one of our favorite newbies Carrie 2.0. Although our favorite line from Poppi was her commenting on Esther's new haircut. We knew you were the funniest person in BAD!

We know those dodgeballers like to throw balls at each other when they are the Tony Dapolito Center, but god, can't you stop throwing them at each other when you are at the after parties? We narrowly avoided our death from all the little red stress balls that were being torpedoed at our faces after the awards (great idea Niki!). While we know everyone in the league has more than a little stress and aggression, perhaps next season we can think of a less dangerous way to take care of this?

We know the night might get a little hazy from this point on for some of the dodgeballers, but we saw Mikey and Mr. Wind, Carrie 2.0 and Danny, Carrie 2.0 and Scotty, Vat and Craig the ref getting quite friendly. We saw Ruby dirty dancing her pretty little heart out with various boys and girls. We gasped at the shirtless hotness that was Leven, Mr. Wind, and Cutrone. Although nothing in the night could quite top the "Thriller" dance performed by Shane, Vat, and a mystery cutie. We are still shaking the glitter our of our hair.

We have give the drag queen downstairs some credit where credit was due. She got the league's resident straight boy Kelly to take off his shirt for a shot. Every time we go to Stonewall, she harasses all of the boys, and usually she gets one to crack under pressure. We are happy she saved the best for last. We saw Gilbride and Erika in deep discussions downstairs either having a heart to heart or plotting away (we believe in the latter), and it was about that time the party started to move on to the after after party at Eastern Bloc.

A good chunk of the dodgeball crew headed from the west to the east and got their karaoke on. It was rip-roaring good time of a night. We saw a lot of familiar faces, hula hooped with the best of them, and eventually called out sick on Tuesday as anticipated. We have to say we might shed a tear next Monday when we have no one to play flip cup with, but alas fall is right around the corner. But let's be honest, our livers would break up with us if we continued to abuse it the way we have this spring, and god knows we need them for next season. xoxo
