A Banquet and a far far overdue blog post


Cue the Sinatra music:

Ladies and Gentlemen, the events of Thursday, November 17th's  I'm Kick James End of the Year Banquet Extravaganza were neither extravagent or banquest-esque... but they were pretty fuckin awesome.

I'm Kick James
    5 - 1 - 1 Regular season record
    0 - 1 Post season record

Simple highlights and awards:

Team MVP's - 
    - Katie - Violence, anger, alcohol, tiara's
    - Timmy -  Magic fingers that brought joy and awkwardly titillating feelings to all of us
    - Lady Parts - Whatever it is our ladies had, the guys need to get some of that... oh, it was Estrogen and a Uterus. Can we get those things? They probably have pills, right? Sexually Reconstructive Surgeries are relatively common now, they must be expensive though. I'm not sure if my insurance would cover that for the sake of kickball. 

Paper Plate Awards - 
    - Pearson - Paper Plate Award for Insisting on Having His Own Paper Plate Award

Ruining My Toasts and My Life - 
    - Jim's clap... I mean clapping

Best Party Favor -
    - Shot's for Tots

Best Slide Show -
    - The Slide Show we played at the banquet... duh

Looking back at the season, I would like to share the following reflections.

- Our team is too big.
- Our team almost always falls apart in the last or second to last inning.
- Our team's drinking habits are far from consistent.
- Our team's hygiene has been seriously called to question.
- Our team really isn't that good at kickball.
- Our team is genuinely the most fun and welcoming group of individuals I have ever had the pleasure to spend time with. Even with the terrible hygiene and the lack of morals or values, I wouldn't change a thing. When the Spring season rolls back around, I hope you'll all be able to to come out once again to destroy our competition by having more fun and being just plain old awesome.

Thank you all. Not so much Jim, because of the clapping thing and because he admitted to not really reading most of the blogs. But everyone else. Not really Dave either, I'm not going to bring it up, but he know what he did. Or Gabe, no thanks to Gabe either. Really, Sweeney, Phil, Pearson, Coops, Jesse, Amelia and a lot of the rest of you didn't do much for me either. Hmmm... Let's just cancel the thank you section. Pretend I didn't write any of this and let's just go back to pretending to be nice about all the other stuff. Thanks, yeah, that's better.
