The Eagle Has Landed

They said no one could beat them and for 11 weeks they were right. Although last night XES took down the mighty Eagle Team to make sure they didn't go the whole season undefeated. It was star players Symmes vs. Eduardo in a showdown that was surely brewing behind the scenes. We have the whole video of Game 3 (after both teams each won a game) and you can tell the game came down to the very end with Symmes making 2 amazing catches with less than 30 seconds on the clock. Although we don't know who was happier: Symmes or the guy behind the camera. xoxo

I Ain't One To Gossip 11-16

How about a group blind item? Which newbie was found in very compromising positions this weekend? Our spies attended a certain underground group party and spotted this hot young guy's legs over his head with a lot of admirers around him. His team may not be doing so hot this season, but that doesn't mean he's not red hot. xoxo

Something's Fish-y

Ok, so maybe we have been watching One Life to Live recently not just for the ongoing gay plot line of Kyle and Fish on the show. We are mostly watching the show because we knew eventually on every soap it's hot stars usually get somewhat nekkid. Well the hot star in question is actually Scotty from D-Tox, and what do you know he has been getting quite shirtless lately. If that isn't enough for you, Out Magazine named him as one of the Out 100 most influential gay people out there. Out Magazine said, "The gay world is just like high school—but bigger and with fewer rules. We approached all cliques to find the most outstanding and inspiring men and women of the year." They took the words right out of our blog. This got us thinking...should we do a gossipgays most inspiring people and who would totally rule the school? xoxo

Spotted: Sandwiched

We spy with our eagle eyes an actual Eagle. Well a couple of hot C-IN2 boys (one even in dodgeball getup) and an Eagle dressed as a bee in the back of Next Magazine this week. Jeff may be the meat in the John and Kurt sandwich, and we hear his meat is something to savor. xoxo

One Big Happy Dysfunctional Family

So we have seen the message boards literally explode over the past weeks, and some of it is totally deserved. Like how the HELL did we leave off Lukas, Chris, and Kirk off the Hottest Newbie poll...we will forever feel shamed. But just remember at the end of the day you guys are one big dysfunctional dodgeball family. You can say whatever you want about somebody, but just remember you all play at the Tony Dapolito Center every Monday and you will all eventually drink out of the same flip-cup at the afterparty. You all probably will also compete for some trick's affections at the end of the night, but just like on the courts, the competition is fierce but all is fair in love and war.

We are about to do something that we never thought we would do, but we are going to quote Star Jones. When asked about her often turbulent relationship with the other ladies of The View she stated: "We fight a lot, you know, but that's family. We may be dysfunctional but we're still family." Translation: "We may hate each other and talk bad behind each others backs, but god damn someone else try to mess with any one of us, we won't be afraid to cut a bitch." We couldn't agree more. xoxo

I Ain't One To Gossip 11-11

It seems like the spin the bottle flip-cup game was just a warmup to a long gestating crush this fall. One of the people who kept "losing" was just trying to land a kiss on the boy he has been trying to mack on since the beginning of the season. It may have worked since they eventually slipped out together, much to the dismay of many of his other admirers. xoxo

Who You Be: Spin Dat Bottle

So you don't play in the league, but apparently you are really good at flip-cup and even better at Spin the Bottle at Pieces last night. Someone even went so far as to describe you as adorable, hilarious AND a really good kisser (a hard combo these days). Apparently you also had a few cuts, scratches and bruises which for some reason drove the boys even more nuts. If you are feeling a little bit like Rihanna lately, we will totally be here to nurse your back to good health but god dang it who you be. xoxo

Say What: Face, Face, Face

We think we know what Kevin is thinking, but
what do YOU think he is saying with that adorable face? xoxo

Let's Get Political

So we aren't ones to get political, but when you tell us we can't marry our tricks, twinks, or boyfriends/girlfriends, well that shit just ain't right. There isn't much time left, but we thought if you wanted to give someone a piece of your mind here are the links:

Make sure your voice is heard. xoxo

Hot Stuff

So we had a poll of which team was the hottest this fall in the league, and what do you know the American Apparrel team won that shit hands down. We have never seen such a commanding lead taken in a poll on gossipgays, ever! We have to give the Cubbyhole team some credit for attempting to de-throne the Angels of their title, but alas, they could only muster half of the votes. So do you think AA has the hottest team this season, or was Cubbyhole robbed? We think America may have finally gotten a vote right for once. xoxo

I Ain't One To Gossip 11-5

Which dodgeballer should really calm down on their constant use of Grindr? We have heard from people that the late night booty calls are fast and furious, but when it comes time to put out or shutup our dear friend Grindr Gabe backs out at the last minute. Tsk, tsk Gabe, didn't your mother ever teach you that you shouldn't ever stand up your tricks? xoxo

Mad As Hell

So we know a lot of anger sometimes spills out of the Tony Dapolito Center but usually it's left on the courts. Although it looks like one of our readers is mad as hell and not going to take it anymore. See what they said:

"Grrr. I'm sick and tired of the way Tony D staff treats us each and every week. Plus this place is rampant with mice and cocha rocha's and never has soap in the bathrooms. gossipgays do you magic and get people to voice their opinions to the Commisioner of Parks and Recs. This is some serious bull shit and the gays need to stand up to this crap."

You feel the same way? Well take 2 minutes out of your day and write to Parks and Rec center here. Maybe if enough people get as mad as this something will actually be done. xoxo

Rock the Vote

So Kurt from The Eagle team is not only a total cutie, ok maybe we are suckers for guys in pictures with dogs, but he needs your vote! See he's competiting on the Time Out NY website for Best New Bottom, err, Arrival. If that isn't reason enough to vote for him, he gives a shoutout to BAD! in his bid for America's Next Top Model, we mean, Best New Arrival.

Kurt Dyer, 29; program and operations manager, Public Allies New York; Greenpoint, Brooklyn
“I just arrived to New York about five months ago from Milwaukee, and I’m bringing my down-home Midwestern-ness to the fast-paced new life I’ve already come to love. I get to do amazing social-justice leadership work for an organization connected to Michelle Obama. Every Tuesday is ‘Topless Tuesdays’ on my blog (dyertimes.com). I have a heart-on for roller-derby queen Suzy Hotrod. And my dodgeball squad, Team Eagle, can beat up yours.”

Even though we know his team literally can't beat us up, vote for his fine ass anyways. xoxo

Spotted: Dirty Dancing

It may have been the end of the night, but these two still managed to get down and dirty on the dancefloor of Splash in the wee hours of the morning. We have seen moves like these before, but it usually involved putting Baby in the corner. xoxo

Making A Splash!

Don't let those dodgeballers confuse you. You may have seen them stumble upon Splash for it's weekly Musical Mondays, and while they claim not to be theater queens, we saw many a Mary singing along to Xanadu like it was their job. Yup, for the eighth week of the season Splash was the afterparty but it wasn't your normal Musical Monday. Pizza, flipcup, and the World Series game filled the downstairs, while those who wanted a little Barbara in their lives ventured upstairs. The 2 for 1's were dangerous, but not as dangerous as a good ol' game of Truth or Dare.

The dares were going around like the swine flu. We saw lap dances, there was break dancing, and the occassional go-go dancing, but it was the truths in the game that really got some of the boys blood bubbling. There were some confessions from certain people about crushes, sexual preferences, and who was, ahem, cut at the table. Every week the game gets a little more intense, and the stakes are raised just a tad bit more. For the most part we saw a certain vet working his magic on the newbies, and one by one they fell under his spell. We always knew he was the quite the dodgeball hearthrob, we just didn't realize how good his game was. Oh who are we kidding we have seen him play dodgeball, we know he's that good. xoxo
