Kickball Standings, For Your Amusement

An earlier version of this post erroneously reported a Prison loss to the New Frontiersmen. So, with that win and a mercy-rule over the Gingerballs (as predicted), Prison is the current top dog of Brooklyn Kickball. Good for them, and their kindler, gentler approach to Sundays. Isn't it fun being nice?

However, I can guarantee that after this Sunday, all the top teams will constantly vie for position. Enjoy the battles.

In other notable news: The Bacon Bits beat the defending champs, the Non-Commits, with a dramatic, bottom 5, 2 out, bases loaded single by their captain, Tien Mao! The 2006 Champs, the Fun Club, proved they're always in the mix, with a solid victory over the Dream Team. O, and the Bourgy Ballers won their 3rd game of the year! Hit the victory parade in the Village this Wednesday!

O, there was a hawk in Lawn Candy's protective big tree. According to some know-it-all passerby, it was dying. Hopefully the ASPCA came to the rescue. Shots of it are in the slideshow below.
