The Standings: Shakeup City

Here's what we can tell you, C-IN2 has clawed their way up to the top spot. What we can't tell you is exactly how that is possible since they have played less games than Eagle and Duplex. This who bye-week thing has thrown us for a loop, because we aren't sure how they are on top. And we can always spot who's a top from a mile way. xoxo

Rock Bottom?

The temperature continues to rise outside and things are really heating up in our little league as well. After a kumbaya-tastic weekend of outdoor play in the beautiful weather and a picnic that looked like it was more fun than any of the after parties this year (where was our invite???), tempers seemed to flare-up this past Monday. Perhaps it’s the lack of newbies or that the vets have all hooked up with each other already, but the after parties this season have been… lacking.

On the courts there was some great drama though. Eagle and Duplex went head to head for the first place slot and it was a great game. Endre and his sweaty sexy arms really dragged Duplex along, but Eagle wanted it too much and pulled through for the win. Sorry Duplex… no undefeated season for you. Although in a bizarre twist of fate Project Sandwich, or as they have dubbed themselves "sand-bitches" (how fitting), took down the once mighty Eagle for a surprise win. They were almost as surprised they won as we were. Also, we will never complain about having to hang around to shag late again.

We got to hear Jason K. of Woody’s and James the Ref go at it. Jason K. was not happy with James’s performance as a ref last night and lit into him. To which James replied to his rants by saying he was going to throw him out of the game. Jason K., sounding like a privileged Upper East Side celebutante, threw down his board status and told James there was no way he was leaving. Dearest Jason, buying a few pizzas doesn’t mean you get to behave like that. Even though James was probably high as a kite when reffing, he is still the ref and deserves some respect. And James, we agree with you: if someone is being a bitch on the court, toss their asses out (it makes for a better post)!  Plus, we like it when you act so butch.

Then when we finally got to Rock Bar, we learned there was drama there too. By the way, we aren’t too thrilled with that space for after parties, are you? It was small, dark and it smelled worse than Leven’s arm pit in back, but hey, we have to pay our dues to the people on the back of our shirts right? Apparently, there was live music at the bar when the dodgeballers started to roll in and one of the performers was upset that they weren’t paying attention to him and his ukulele (no joke). He started singing a song where he screamed at the bar to “shut the fuck up”. Now, I know they banned smoking in bars, and now you can’t dance without a license, but talking? Luckily the guy realized that no one was listening to him and that no one wanted to listen to him and stormed off the stage. That’s show business!

With that tragedy off stage, they reverted back to real music and it was about time that Rock Bar earned its title. The tunes were pumping and not your standard dodgeball fare of Whitney, Britney Gaga, and Madonna. We’re talking some fierce 60’s, 70’s and 80’s tunes. We saw Stacey and her attached at the hip partner Jeremiah rocking it out to Tina Turner’s “Proud Mary” so hard that they made all us Mary’s proud. Although Stacey why the long face after what seemed like a bitchfest with Erika outside? We couldn't hear, but judging from your face, we are guessing you girls weren't discussing puppies and rainbows. Over at the pool table the ladies were knocking balls with some of the boys. Sergio was up against some fierce girls like Cyn, Tamika and Nicole. He got beat harder than Ike beat Tina on that pool table. Sergio, you’ve been voted the flip cup champion. Maybe you should stick to that. We also saw Jerry hanging around too and, we must say, we are happy to see him with those piercing blue eyes and a smile that would melt even Ricky Martin’s newly gay heart.

After the feeding frenzy of pizza (so much for that Fire Island diet, huh boys?), the table was cleared off and prepped for flip cup. It was a little improved from last week, but not much. We didn’t play much at all because the corner they stuck the table in was about 100 degrees and smlet like a mix of must and dust. We heard ladies were taking off their bras and Mezzano was putting them on. We thought we all agreed that it was better when Mezzano was wearing less clothing, not more (same applies to Endre, Conti, Lukus, Trevor, etc, etc). We heard that after we left, spin the bottle came out and some vets and newbies were mackin’ it up. We need to learn how to weight the bottle so it’ll land on Andreau. Also, Andreau, who was your special guest? He was quite the tall drink of water. You have hot friends; keep supplying the parties with fresh meat, we really appreciate it!

The flip cup table played a very quiet second fiddle to what had our attention: the NCAA championship game. We are a sport league, right? So we put on our best butch face and pretended we knew what was going on. Everyone seemed to be going for Butler except Southern newbie Adam. What’s his story by the way? He catches like a pro on the court and he catches our eye at the after parties. He has that sexy deep voice, those gorgeous eyes, he's friendly to everyone (shocker we know) and that adorable smile. Adam, your North Carolina team won the championship and you’ve won us over with your charm, so keep it coming!

The party disbanded a bit and we saw a few vets leaving together, but we think it was just to share cabs. The recession has totally messed up our ability to discern whether people are going home together or just sharing cost of transport. Damn economy!! We watched all the cute boyfriends act, well, cute. Dom and his boyfriend, who has been hanging around a lot lately, were caught smooching innocently throughout the night. We even caught Steve with his arm around BBahr. It really pangs us to say it but that was actually pretty endearing to see. Maybe we were wrong when we said it wasn’t going to last… When we realized we didn’t have anyone to put our arm around except another $2.50 Alabama Slammah, we knew it was time to make a hasty exit. xoxo

Who's On Top Now?

My, my, my. How the mighty have fallen. xoxo

And So It Begins...

Taking a look at the scores, you might have thought we were looking at last season's scores. The question remains this season: Is Eagle the team to beat? Looks like they seem to think so. xoxo

And The Winner Is....

Gym Bar! Congrats to coming in first place in the league, with Bamboo 52 and Pieces a close second and third respectively, it was a true fight to the finish. Although none of it matters when it comes to the tournament on Monday. Whichever team is left standing, is the team that can call themselves the winners of BAD!'s 4th crazy season.

We must say, we are a *little* confused because according to the standings the scores were adjusted. Can we ask why the scores were adjusted and what is the disclaimer: "a couple of teams were forced to (incorrectly) forfeit matches. However, there is no rule stating there needs to be a minimum number of players." If someone knows what happened, can you please let us know? We don't know what that smell is, but we think it's bullshit. xoxo

She's Having A Baby!

So first and foremost, a congratulations is in order as most of the league found out on Monday that Robin is....going to be a mom! Don't freak out at the fact that she was doing shots, she's not a boozing it up while pregnant, her partner is the one having the baby. And boy were there shots to be had, we don't understand how Robin stumbled home after Gym Bar, but kudos for still being alive and concious at the end of the night!

So back to the dodgeball of it all. According to the standings Gym Bar is still dominating on the court and narrowly beating Stonewall and The Legally Blondes by 1 match. It is still anyone's game and our MVP award would go to Poppi. We know it's hard to catch Eduardo's balls on the court, but she not only caught it, but she caught it in her vagina. No lie, she caught it and it somehow ended up between her legs. Also keeping the tradition going, Bryan B. of Eagle team hurt his finger really bad. We hear it's something called Mallet Finger, and we think Mandy of Pets at Play has the same problem! Looks like they have something to talk about.

Everyone headed to Gym Bar for the raging after party. They were met by pizza, pitchers of beer, and championship basketball on the television (did we mention this is a gay league?). The flip cup started and it was all down hill from there. We saw some heated runs as the flip cup table was the longest we have ever seen. Technically it was two tables, but still that's a lot of flip cup!

We also saw a lot of making out happen in the evening. We of course saw James and Vinny getting all lovey dovey, Monica was smooching some guy in the corner, Sergio was getting his groove on with a non-dodgeballer, and Kelly was making out with some girl. Did we also mention somehow his shirt magically flew open and he was a little, um, exposed? Not that we minded, we can never pass up a shirtless Kelly opportunity.

All in all, it was one of the craziest and loud after parties we have been to. As the night winded down we hear that some of the boys continued the after after party at Barracuda, but we were far too tired to keep it going. Guess it means we just can't keep up anymore, or maybe it means that we started partying too early. xoxo

The Gloves Are Off!

There were a couple beatdowns last night that happened, and we are still kinda shocked what went down. Let's get to the on the court beatdown which was brought by the still undefeated Eastern Bloc team. Three weeks in a row they have won all of their matches to take first in the league, but they better watch out because Stonewall is right on their tail. Both of the teams are fighting mad, and both won 5 out of 6 games, but Stonewall is still beating them game-wise. All it takes is for one slip-up and we may just have a tie for first.

While we know we are totally in a recession, times are tough, no one has any money, etc etc, we sure do love those dodgeballers love to get the most out of their Tony Dapolito gym membership. That bike looks like the perfect place to gaze at the cute newbies this season.

We headed over to Stonewall for some flip cup and fun. While the flip cup was in full effect, it was an altercation that looks like it came out of an episode of Rock of Love that really got us scratching our heads. Imagine one minute you are dancing with Kelly while he shows off his white boy dance moves, then the next minute you are scrambling out of the way of hair pulling, name calling, and a what, a what, a girlfight.

Yup, just when you thought BAD! couldn't get any more crazy, leave it to the girls to really shake things up. We don't know specifics of the fight, or who even started it, but what we do know is there is an all love, no hate policy in BAD! Let's hope the two girls kissed and made up, otherwise count on some majah tension on the court when the two play each other in the coming weeks.

After the altercation, we continued to salsa dance with Eduardo, double dutch with Leven (who brings a jump rope to dodgeball?), and we were introduced to a new game from James the Gym teacher. He started a little game of spin the bottle, but if the bottle lands on you, you have to dance with the person instead of kiss them. There were definately some interesting partners, and all in all some people got down and dirty.

While we grabbed our coats and headed home from another exciting evening at BAD!, we happened to walk by two guys who were getting hot and heavy by the bathrooms. It reiterated the all love, no hate policy in the league and our own personal policy here at gossipgays. Make love, not bar fights. xoxo
