Untoucha-Balls - Tuesday @ 6:30pm! Lower EastSide

Hey 'Bugalugs'!

Isn't this weather a 'beaut'? Well unfortunately tomorrow will be our last Dodgeball game of the season. It looks like it won't pick up again till the fall. Don't get your 'knickers' in a tizzy. I'm sure we can come up with something to 'rattle your dags'! How about roof top happy hours or drinks on the patio!?!? However if you plan to 'skull' your favorite beverage, you'll have to look forward to the 'long-drop'!! Some of these places can get messy. Anyway... don't be a 'wet blanket' and let's have fun Tuesday!

- Captain
Larry and iCaptain Dave spent some time last week learning some Kiwi lingo from Kim and Ursula. "I should have passed on the conversation about sheep castration!".
-
Rachel skipped out last week. Apparently she was singing! "Up from the basement to my best friend's farm, Where we'll work so hard, we can do no harm... We'll till the land and duck our debts, Underneath soft sun, chewing Nicorette.... This will be a better year.... This will be a better year." [Here is the catchy tune...] Is there karaoke this week Rachel?
- If you like to gamble, bet on
Barlow taking out our opponents best people. Don't spend your money on the 181 million dollar lottery!
-
Laura plays in her second game tomorrow. I think she is really bummed about missing last week. It's okay Laura, bring us the "W" this week!
- There were a lot of girls playing on the opposing teams last week. We caught
Shaun getting their numbers before the game. As a result, I think he took it easy on them. Shaun, wait till AFTER the game!!

Where: Henrietta Szold (PS 134) - East Broadway (near Grand Street)
When: 6:30pm
Directions: Take F to East Broadway Station (Exit subway at East Broadway entrance/exit)
Walk East - You will pass Jefferson, Clinton, Montgomery and a playground on your right. Entrance is right before intersection of E. Broadway and Grand

Drinks after the game at Bar 169! It's right near the subway entrance.

Thanks,

Untoucha-Balls - Tuesday @ 9:30pm! Upper EastSide

Hey Everyone! Awesome game last week! I hope you had a great time! Our game this week is Tuesday.

- iCaptain Dave Griffin is back. Have you ever seen someone sing while tagging our opponent on the other side of the court? Watch! He actually takes requests.
- I believed it and then I saw it. Wow! Laura's got skillz. Why did you miss the earlier games?
- Riva may have to play back to back this week. We may have enough though. Warm up the bar for us Riva!
- Cynthia is riding a camel in Egypt! We can't bust her chops about that. I like Dodgeball, but not THAT much.
- I wasn't kidding when I said diversity is in our DNA. The Kiwi's Kim and Ursula return. Although I thought they first said they were Aussie! Are people confused "down under"? I thought Kiwi's don't like to be called Aussie and vice versa. I'll have to find out this week.
- Our Canadian peeps Shaun and Itai were afraid to come close to the 'border', we told them we don't check passports here. Don't be afraid!
- It's always a pleasure to have Rachel join us. I know she's busy so she may need some coaxing..... pitchers of Guinness Rachel, "Pitchers"!! And this is the bar that has PBJ! "*whistle*, *whistle... and we don't care about the young folks, talkin' bout the young style, and we don't care about the old folks, talkin' 'bout the old style too, and we don't care about their own faults, talkin' 'bout our own style, all we care 'bout is talking, talking only me and you"
- Team MVP Barlow came through and guaranteed our only victory last week by nailing the last player on the court on the very last game!

When: Tuesday @ 9:30pm
Where: Robert Louis Stevenson (PS 183) - E 67th Street between York and 1st on the south side of street.
Directions: Take the 6 to E68th Street Station. The school is located 419 East 67th St (btw York and 1st Ave). You do not need to enter the school to get to the gym. Walk through play yard on 67th street!

Let me know if you can't make it!!

Untoucha-Balls - Wednesday @ 8:30pm! Upper WestSide

I'm psyched! After a week of rest, we will finally have the chance to be fully "staffed" for this weeks Dodgeball game!

- iCaptain Griffin could be back in action after throwing out his back several weeks ago. He has a prior engagement, but should be able to make it out after his duties are done.
- Laura makes her Dodgeball debut and will be showing us how they really throw down in Florida!
- Riva likes to cheat on her team. If they don't mind, we don't either!! "disaronno on the rocks" anyone?
- Cynthia continues to avoid it. We ALL can't understand why? Quit teasing us Cynthia!
- Our Canadian peeps Shaun and Itai will finally get to be on the court at the same time!
- Barb will challenge us to shots at 'The Parlour' as she stands TALL at the bar!
- Our most experienced Dodgeball player, Rachel 'Boom Boom' Foster, has played with the rubber balls. Nobody intimidates her!
- Team MVP Barlow, will lead us to victory with his well rested arm and jedi like dodging abilities.

When: Wednesday @ 8:30pm
Where: Sara Anderson (PS 9) - 100 West 84th Street (corner of Columbus)
Directions: Take B or C to 86th Street Station (CPW) or 1 to 86th Street Station (Broadway) then walk a few blocks.

Drink at 'The Parlour' after the game!

Anyway.. let me know if you can't make it!!
