2001 Bi-Weekly Report (5-18-01)
Sunday gameday approaching
What else can I tell you that you probably already know? Well,
keep reading. Sunday marks our fifth gameday and afterwards, all
teams will have played an equal amount of games. Well, assuming
no teams have to forfeit, which hasn't happened yet (knock on wood).
The Holy
Whites have the bye this time around, meaning the run
production might be a bit down compared to usual. Clint
Wattenberg will be "in uniform" for the first
time since opening day. Jordan
Lockhart is supposed to make his return for the Y&R.
Luke
Carriere is questionable however, which could be bad
news for the Road
Warriors. Luke is a coach for the American Legion team
up here, and apparently, Sunday is their team's opening day festivities.
Hopefully for the Warriors, Luke will be able to make a game...or
two. Other than that, the rest of the expected cast should be out
there (Seth, Casey, Dean, Jeff, Terry, Darnell, Aaron, Greg, James, and Derek).
Also after Sunday, every team will be exactly 1/3rd the way through
the season, so if you're the type who likes to project stats, just
multiply player numbers by three to get their (rough of course)
projected final numbers. See, I told you we'd be playing much more
often.
I don't know why I bother writing about the upcoming gameday, since
few of you visit us on the weekend. Oh well.
Play of Month Voting going smoothly
In the multimedia
section, you may have noticed the voting booth for March/April's
POTM. After 40+ votes, Clint Wattenberg's diving HR rob has a sizable
lead, with something like 55% of the votes, which are split between
five nominees. Recently I got my first vote, which I think is stupid.
My play wasn't that bad...it sure was a lot more impressive than
Darnel Uhlandl's little "running catch" which would be
an embarrassment had he not caught it. I guess I'm not going to
win every month this year, like I almost did last year. Hopefully
May's POTM nominees will form a stronger field than the weak current
crop. Keep
voting though, up until the end of the month!
News and Rumors
--School's rumored to be officially
done for me...at least for the summer that is. Who cares?? Well,
those who like updates sure do!! We got time now! Of course, once
school gets out, it starts to get ungodly hot up here, which conversely
makes it HARDER to update, because you start sweating and feeling
really gross if you sit at a computer for longer than an hour. We'll
try our best though to block out the misery, so long as you promise
to keep coming over every once in awhile during the summer months.
--Currently, league officials are trying
to guage interest for next year's crop of rookies in order to set
how many teams we will have. I don't know if the league could handle
more than 7 teams if we keep playing the way we are. We'd need to
play either once EVERY weekend rather than average every other weekend,
or find more fields...or both. Of course, there might be no interest
in which case everything would be the same. There will probably
be more than 2 people "cut" next year, and hopefully I
won't live with any of them this time, like I did the first time.
Live in Chico? Think you could contribute? E-mail
us...I know of a few names already, but e-mail
us anyway and let us know if you plan on trying out in
December. It's a pretty fun league.
--Calendar shoots are soon going to
be taking place, now that good ol' Mr. Sun seems to be here for
good. Got ideas for settings for us? Particular players in particular
poses? Want to see any particular player completely naked? We can't
guarantee it will happen, but go to our message
board and let us know your ideas or thoughts or sexual
desires. We can guarantee that unless you're female, you'll be flamed
for wanting to see a guy naked, justified or not, so if you're worried
about that, you can always use e-mail.
--Back in the day, there was this "hot
chick" who lived in Australia who apparently thought Casey
Sylvester was the shit. She let us know by e-mailing Mark Montgomery(???)
and saying something to the effect of "I'm from Australia.
I like your site and think that this Casey Sylvester fellow is really
cute" or some other kind of hot high school girl lingo. Well,
actually, we don't if she was hot since we never saw her, but for
the purposes of this piece of news, she was. We're talking 1998
now...old school wiffleball webpage fans. Anyway...Casey wanted
me to see if I could find her, and this is my effort for the man
who made me a genius.
Australian hot chick? Are you out there? Casey's been hitting the
weights recently and looks twice the man he was in '98. Drop us
a line and we'll give you some "privileged information".
--Current goings-on in the message
board is as follows:
1. James Vassar and one of Clint's wrestling teammates from NY are
having a really bad argument revolving around guys hitting left-handed,
guys named Scott, fantasy wiffleball, and bj's.
2. A discussion is hot and heavy over this VH1 program about bands
or something. Apparently, Flickerstick sucks.
3. A local boy named John Deatrick has apparently agreed to play
Mickey
Kendall in a hilarious "1 on 1" wiffleball
game. How will it be played, since "1 on 1" is impossible?
We don't know...that's why it's hilarious!!
--Alright...I'm starting to sweat.
--Later, enjoy the site...please.
