Best Dodgeballer Poll

These guys and gals played a mean season, and they fought hard on the court of the Tony Dapolito Center, and now we want you to tell us who you loved..or loathed.

We know at teams their hard throws or articulate catches could have frustrated you during the season, so we thought it would be fun to post pictures of their *ahem* alter-egos. That's right sometimes you play the part of the villian, and sometimes the hero. But c'mon doesn't every good story need a villian? xoxo

In XES?

Those dodgeballers are getting their drink on at XES (157 W 24th St between 6th and 7th St). Here's what we know 2-4-1 until 9pm, then $4 off margaritas, cosmos, and martinis. They have an outdoor patio and if all of that isn't reason enough then maybe the fact that it's the last week you can party like a rock star with the league for a very long time may change your mind. Oh yeah, we pulled the pity card. 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

Spotted: Next Magazine

It seems BAD! at the Bachelor Auction was all over the back of Next Magazine in the Shot in the Dark section. NYC's favorite fag rag found Eduardo and Kelly getting chummy, Weeks with barely a shirt (just the way we like it), and Ed from Splash representing and trying to raise some much need funds for the league.


We love that these guys are recreating their look that gave them 5 seconds of fame. They shouldn't worry because they will always be famous on the court of the Tony Dapolito Center. Isn't that what counts at the end of the day? xoxo

I Ain't One To Gossip 5-8

Which hunky and usually available vet is now currently off the market? It seems they have found love and wish they could put a ring on it, but just not on their finger. xoxo

Sexy Can I?

We can't say we are surprised, I mean we have been obsessed with him since God created dodgeball, but he can add another trophy to his already crowded mantle. Gilbride housed the competition to become the Sexiest Male Vet of Spring '09, and the competition was fierce. What started out a two horse race between Gilbride and Endre, quickly became a fight to the finish as Leven came out of nowhere and commanded the poll over the weekend. But Gilbride fought back, gritted his teeth, and texted his all of his old tricks to vote for him. We could have called it from the beginning. He was the cutest vet last season, and we profiled him back last fall, so needless to say he is one of the most popular, hottest, and loudest people at the Tony Dapolito Center on Mondays. All in all, he has earned his crown and we hope he can defend his honor next season.

What did surprise us was the drama going on in the comment section. We thought we were nasty, but you queens were hitting, amongst other things, below the belt. There were some not so nice things said, but it did open our eyes to the fact that you guys want a little more input to these, so gossipgays listened and we are giving you a voice. Our next poll is for Best Dodgeball Player on the court and you get the chance to pick who you want in the poll. You have until tomorrow Friday May 8th at 5pm to either comment in this section (try not to be so anonymous this time) or send an email to BADgossipgays@gmail.com. We will pick the top 10 entries. If you send us an email you can also send us a photo, because Tyra said it best when she said, "Sometimes only you know your best angles". Now if we could only figure out how to smile with our eyes. xoxo

Reese's Pieces

So to say those dodgeballers just partied at Pieces would be a lie. They took it over, tore it down, then drank it clean. It was crazy in the West Village on Monday as BAD! embarked upon Pieces (for the first time) and we could see the fear on the only bartenders face as players flipped, cupped, danced, and made speeches?!

It seems that Paul the Commissioner has been stripped...of his title that is. He is officially stepping down and V is taking his place as the lord and beastmaster of BAD! Monica, who feverishly was getting everyone to sign that huge ass card at the Tony Dapolito Center, introduced Paul and made the not so shocking announcement that he was stepping down. Paul got us all misty eyed, or maybe it was the poppers, and everyone toasted him for starting the league four score and several seasons ago.

It was quite the busy night as two of our cutest players both were celebrating their birthdays! Michael of Splash and Will of Stonewall both turned a healthy 21 and don't look a day over 16. We are still a little bitter they wouldn't let us give them a good birthday spanking but hey there's always next year.

The boys and girls rocked it out hardcore on the flip cup table with a lot of Milwaukee's Best to keep them from getting thirsty. It was wet and it was wild. We saw lots of skin, and better yet, we saw it from some hawt newbies. First of all, who knew that Pets at Play could quite possible de-file WOOF! as the hottest team in the league? With Jacob finally showing us what the good lord gave him, Luke's a-dor-able smile, Mandy's fine ass mallet finger, Spencer's gorgeous eyes, and Ken's six pack, they are definitely bringing it. Why did you have to wait all the way until the end of the season??

Speaking of skin, we have a vet who happens to have an affinity for his balls and loves to show them off on our hands. This has happened before, and not that we mind, but don't be a cock tease, literally. We also saw someone whip out a leather harness (perhaps they got it from WOOF! last season?) and boy were we surprised who was modeling it off. She might just have a career in leather modeling cut out for her if this whole dodgeball thing doesn't work out. In all seriousness it was getting late as everyone started finding their tricks, and after closing down the bar at 2am, we headed to the after after party and by after after party we mean our beds. xoxo

Spotted: Keg Party?

With all of the 6 packs in this picture, we think there was a keg party at Pieces on Monday. Either that or God finally threw us a bone and we got 2 of the hottest guys in the league (who coincedentally play on teams with animals WOOF! and Pets at Play) in one picture sans shirts. Let us be the ones to tap that. xoxo

Pieces of Me

We think we may still be drunk from last night at Pieces, but one thing is for sure, it was a totally insane after party. We are going to nurse our hangover, try to find our clothes, say goodbye to our trick, and get back to you. xoxo

Say What?

We have seen some pretty impressive talent in our days, but this may be one of the most useful we can think of. So if Mikey could say something, if his fist wasn't lodged down his throat, what would he be saying? xoxo

Blog Wars

http://newyorkgossipgays.com/Blog/Blog.html

We think imitation is totally the most sincere form of flattery. Though if we start to see shirtless pictures of Weeks playing flipcup on the site, we won't be afraid to cut a bitch. xoxo

Who You Be: Newbie Edition

Sometimes we goto the after parties and sometimes we have a few drinks. A lot of times we just have no clue who some of the hotties playing flip cup or getting shots at the bar are. So we want to call out those hot guys, who just may be a little quiet and shy, so we can finally figure out WHO YOU BE?!?

This dark haired hottie is usually out and we haven't quite figured out what you are up to. So we just have some general questions -

Name:
Likes:
Dislikes:
Drink of Choice:


So if you know any of the following details, PLEASE hook a brother up and tell us what the deal is. No hottie should go unnamed. xoxo

After Party 5-4

For it's 11th crazy after party of the season, BAD! is going to keep in the West Village tonight and head over to Pieces (8 Christopher St.) for some much needed flip cup and fun. If this dodgeball after party is anything like those crazy football parties consider us there. xoxo

Sexiest Male Vet

Mirror mirror on the way, who is the hottest of them all?

Now that we know how you feel about the lovely ladies, let's get to boys in the league. Understand us when we tell you, we couldn't put EVERY guy from BAD! on here, but we thought we would pick some of the more popular ones with our readers. If there someone you feel is totally sexy and not on the list, tell us!

JT may have brought sexy back, but these boys are totally keeping sexy around. xoxo

Your Favorite Lovely Lady Vets

We asked who your favorite lady vet was this season, and boy was it a fight to the finish. Mandy from Pets at Play and Esther from WOOF! came out swinging and in the end tied for first. That's right, you queens couldn't make up your minds so we have crowned them both because let's be honest, these two are totally fun.

Of course we have to say, we LOVE all of the ladies in the league. Those gay boys could not be more lucky to have such a banging group of girls to play on the court and attempt to beat in flip cup after. While we wish could give them all crowns, but unfortunately there are too many queens in the league and what the Tony Dapolito Center doesn't need is another broken tiara on the court. xoxo
