 7/24 - Game 16, A Swing and a Prayer - Rain Out
"Puddles of Mudd"
Just another ho-hum day in paradise? Not really. With the threat of intense thunderstorms last night's 6:15 games were all cancelled. The later games, however, were played. Perhaps the best thing to come out of the bad weather was an increase in bar time.
For the second week in a row "The Bomber" Mike Gross proved he is a special person, indeed. Endulging openly in moist towelettes and providing comedic entertainment for the entire bar, The Bomber charmed the bartender (our new bestest friend) and patrons of the Landmark in South Amboy. Good food and good set ups makes one think about next year. "We're keeping our sponsors open for next year. We are a highly desireable team to sponsor as we are that damn good," nWo Manager, Jim "Hollywood" Sorochen, commented at the bar last night. Decked out in work clothes resulting from an injury sustained in the Sunday debacle, Hollywood laughed easily at the upcoming playoffs, "we're going to kick everyone's ass...we know it...they know it...it's just a matter of going through the motions."
Some comments from other team mates after such strong words.
"Ponytail Mike" Peleskey: "Can I have another Beck's?"
Carlos "Los" Almedia: "F-ing work...get me another beer, Mike."
Jim Coffey: "Can I get it draft?"
The Bomber: "This is my wedding song."
Alan Sorochen: "We have two more minutes until the train comes...another beer over here, please?"
On a positive note, The Bomber set the new world record in losing a pool game to Los: 30 seconds. The sad part, however, was that the poor Bomber kept going back for more...
Around the league: Perhaps the most talked about team in Woodbridge is Mass Brothers with 12 straight wins to find themselves in fourth place. Rumor has it Mass Brothers was also the reason for the letter sent around to all the teams about drinking after games...yeah, ok, you see we all took that seriously. Woodbridge Elks continue to lose miserably. Teddy's Bar has put together a nice 6 game win streak to move into fifth as Chase, chases nothing but the basement, losing 9 in a row and catching 15th place for their efforts. And no...I don't have any boxscores because Hollywood sucks.

7/2 - Game 13, Chase - W, 20-7
"Lucky Thirteen"
To kick off the holiday week/weekend, Team nWo spanked Chase into submission. Exploding like a Macy's fireworks display, nWo Offense scored 13 runs in the first inning last night in Port Reading. In the dripping heat and humidity that soared temps into the high 90's, the boys showed that they have what it takes to compete. "The humidity was bad," said nWo manager Jim "Hollywood" Sorochen, "you can sneeze and break a sweat." It seemed the only thing that was cool was the Chase bats.
Amongst the highlights, Alan Sorochen went 3 for 3; Mike Peleskey stroked a triple with 5 RBIs; John Novak and Mike Sorochen both hit doubles.

6/25 - Game 12, Redhawks - W, 17-7
"65 Feet"
In a rare lapse of the usual intelligence level we're used to, Blue (AKA the Umpire), measured the bags incorrectly. The first inning of this game lasted almost 45 minutes as Team nWo quickly ripped through the line up running the sub 65 foot baselines including an inside the park home run by John Novak. "It was the fans that tipped us off," said Jim "Hollywood" Sorochen, "they kept giving funny looks...then we finally realized what was going on."
Blue, in a press release after the game commented, "I don't really know what happened. I believe it may have been directly related to a spacetime continuum flux caused by the rapid accension of warm air parcels into a cooler upper atmosphere." We here at the site, believe Blue was an idiot and should have been forced to eat his tape measure to teach him a lesson.
The team celebrated it's first win in three weeks with a couple coolers of beer and some general mischief making.
Around the league: Rug's and Riffy's continue their decline losing the sixth straight and slipping into 12th. The Mass Brothers, despite reports of fierce fighting equal to that of Bonds v Kent, has risen into third place with 5 straight wins. Woodbridge Elks have yet to win a game...but goddammit they won't forfeit out of the league! I guess they just play for the fun of it...
