1st Round Done

It was play off day today! Kickball's first season is over and we have a 2 week break. Our team was not suppose to play due to not making the playoffs however around 1:30 I received a text about us having to play at 2:30, unfortunately there was no way I would have made it so I informed my team I couldn't I guess the best part about being on the team of the bar who sponsors the league is we do what we want. We got the game pushed back an hour and I was able to hightail it to the city. I met my team at the field nervous and not mentally prepared to play. I learned that the 1st place team had forfeited and bumped us up to being in the playoffs!

We quickly assembled into the field and had a killer game. It was neck and neck and we held them down by 1 run into the 4th inning. We advanced on to the next round, semi finals. We had a break and watched the other 2 teams play and well kinda got in the way of the game cause we were on the foul line and kept getting balls kicked at us.
I think I rolled around in the dirt more on the sideline then I did on the actual field! We started using the phrase twat block as well.

The next game commenced and we had a good lead and then shitty playing came into affect and we ended up losing by 2. So 3rd place in the league isn't bad (considering we weren't even suppose to be in the playoffs) but it surely is not first! The whole time though the Spirit Animals were in full effect and supporting everyone else by giving us some great tunes and supplying a cheering section. They definitely were on our side and wanted to see us advance on to the championship. They had lost their first game sadly and did not reach the championship like everyone thought they would. I did find out that the Spirit Animals are now following my blog so big shout out to you guys! As of now they have unofficially won the drinking portion of the league as well 3 years in a row, so congrats guys!

After our sad defeat I headed to the bar to see if I was needed to work and for some reason it was pretty dead in there. I hung out and watched the Spirit Animals and some other teams show up and the flip cup commenced. I had my brother coming home today from AT so I didn't join in the fun so I could drive home and see him but I definitely heard everyone in the back singing Taylor Swift as loud as possible. I must say it was quite amusing for us because the Animals sure get into Taylor and made sure everyone knew who was boss back there! The yes' and nos' of the flip cup game could tell us who was winning at all times to! I houdinied it out of there and proceeded to drive home with my (now sober) brother trailing behind me. You see the green team fed him alcohol and he got ballsy on the field and definitely called some unsure shots in our favor, again we do what we want.

On the way home there was some asshole going 40 on the highway and then another decided to just stop and sit on a light deciding if it was the right street. I dont know if it's the Cubs fans and their inability to drive today but surely that had to be the case. This jackamo turned on his hazards and blocked an entire lane and it was veerrrryyy annoying. After a long and surprising day I got home to see my oldest younger brother and his medals he achieved at AT. Today ended up being one of the funner Sunday fundays I have had in awhile!
