Game of the Week
[* Sweep the Leg vs. Ball Busters *] 4:15
This Game has the potential to be the most watched game of New Haven Kickball History. Sweep the Leg came out the gate a little slow but their foot is heavy on the throttle, and Ball Busters are still out to prove no matter how much the league changes, they are the champs!
Sweep the Leg just a couple of weeks ago were 1-2-1 and were coming off back to back losses to Ballstards and Balls Deep. With their backs against the Wall, they came out swinging; Blanking the on again-off again Uniballs 6-nil and then completely destroying Blue Ballers 12-0. However, most of the league still isn’t impressed with this STL team. An almost championship atmosphere game for them they’ve heard all summer and most of the fall how good this Ball Busters team is; Almost sparking the legendary 1uck to come back completely. Those 1uckers that remain have been itching at this game for awhile. The newly trained STL pitcher/captain Kharim Jones has been flexing his stuff for a late season push for IVY Best Pitcher.
But, no matter how you slice the bologna… To be the best, you have to beat the best. Ball Busters have never had more than 1 loss in a season in their franchises history. Probably one of the best infields not only in the league, but probably New Haven History. Powered by their All-Pro 3rd Basemen Gabe Johnson, bunting is almost not an option. However, as good as they are… they do have their weaknesses; But Can STL find them? Or will they crumble under pressure?
STL - Busters
Who ya got???
Game of the Week Predictions
STL is on the comeback trail and the Busters have regained their form of last year. Who wants it more? I think the Busters do. BB wins. ~ gmot
Ball Busters win…though I think it will be a good game. ~ glot
Easily one of the better games of the season, with STL seemingly figuring out what ailed them. But the Busters should be a tough test. I like the Busters, but not by much. ~ Handsome Tom
STL is looking better every time I see them, but the Ball Busters will take this one. ~ Strawberry
This match-up should live up to the hype. Two top pre-season contenders, STL has a chance to snatch some swagger back…. But I still don’t think they’re ready yet; Ball Busters by the 1 run ~ el Presidente
And the rest of the
GMOT Kickball Predictions
Hamden Mafia vs. Balls To The Wall
This one is going to be close & could heat up. BTTW comes away with the win. ~ gmot
Hamden will use their black team skills against these red beasts and kick some butt. ~ glot
Hamden Mafia have quitely been one of the stronger teams in the league, I see them taking this one as well. ~ Handsome Tom
The Mafia has been going strong, home runs galore. Mafia! ~ Strawberry
A must win game for Balls to the Wall. I think a lost in round I will pay dividends for round II, I have Balls to the Wall. ~ el Presidente
I Got A Fever vs. Uniballs
Both teams are coming off of a loss; both teams hungry. I think the Fever will show that they are a real contender and squeak by the Uni's. ~ gmot
I have Uniballs with the comeback here. Tough lost last week. ~ glot
A tough game to call, it all depends on which Uniballs team shows up. I wouldn't be surprised either way...but I'm gonna go with Fever. ~ Handsome Tom
I've got the Feverrrrr ~ Strawberry
Who knows which Uniballs will show up but against the Fever… it won’t matter. I have a slight Fever as well. ~ el Presidente
Kickelback vs. Balls Of Fury
Two teams that are here to have fun and are usually good sports...I hate to pick a winner here, so I won't. It ends in a tie. ~ gmot
Kickelback sticking with the wins. ~ glot
As much as I think the Furys are good, its hard for me to see them beating the new look Kickelback. ~ Handsome Tom
Kickelback, hot off their last victory, shall prevail once again! ~ Strawberry
The ones they call kickelback are not bad as a team. One even predicting championship this season- I won’t go that far but they have this game; Kickelback ~ el Presidente
Inglorious Ballstards vs. Blue Ballers
I can guarantee that most of the league will be cheering on the Blue Ballers in this one. But that won't help. Team Maroon wins. Again. (sigh) ~ gmot
Blue Ballers will finally come together and show the Ballstards some competition…hopefully. ~ glot
Wow how the once mighty have fallen, what used to look like a great matchup at the start of the season now seems boring. I have the Ballstards big. ~ Handsome Tom
The Blue Ballers have been crumbling more and more each week, and, very very unfortunately, the Ballstards will add another notch to their belt. ~ Strawberry
I don’t know how the Ballstards will handle being favored but…. It’ll be closer than everyone thinks… Ballstards ~ el Presidente
Balls Deep vs. Saved By The Balls
Balls Deep (a.k.a. The Haters) will get the win over the fun-loving Saved crew. Sorry guys, everyone is on to the pitching...um...distraction. ~ gmot
Sorry Saved by the Balls, I have Balls Deep with winning this week…again. ~ glot
Never really sure to which Balls Deep team will show up, but I don't see them having any problems with this game. ~ Handsome Tom
This will be fun for Balls Deep. BD! ~ Strawberry
With the weather changing, maybe its time for saved by the balls to go back to school or start a spin-off team; Balls Deep ~ el Presidente
Wrecking Balls vs. Elm City Teabaggers
The Teabaggers could win this. And the earth could tip off it's axis causing colossal devastation. Neither will happen this Sunday. Sorry. ~ gmot
Wrecking balls with an easy win. ~ glot
This game has the potential for the most adult beverages consumed before the game starts, but I think the Wrecking Balls will get back to their winning ways. ~ Handsome Tom
Oh dear.; Wrecking Balls ~ Strawberry
Wrecking Balls, but they will show them so mercy…. ~ el Presidente
