Team Saucony isn’t your typical sports team. It’s a league of true Originals. It’s a place to come together and play the sort of sports that don’t require cleats, pads or helmets. It’s less about the goals you score, and more about the hang.
That’s right, after suffering his near season-ending hamstring injury, Johnny was back and a full XRT team was ready to take this game by storm.
With the return of Johnny Mars, Venus didn’t stand a chance against Team XRT.
After finally figuring out that the game wasn’t pronounced “cub”, we grabbed our Kubb sticks and went to work with two big comeback wins against Venus Zine.
This proved to be the first victory for
Keep a lookout for some new Kubbers in
We’re not convinced… We believe this game was manufactured solely for the purpose of destroying our phenomenal season. What happened to wiffle ball!? Perhaps this game was created by IKEA to get rid of their unsellable dowel rods? Everyone knows ninjas are adept at throwing stars.. but sticks? RIDICULOUS!!
You see the shot above? That killed a man! Which much to our chagrin did not earn us any bonus points… but we did get a really great picture of a frozen high-five..
L’Oreal may have played a nearly flawless game, but we’re blaming it on the beer..
First Class
defeated!
Who in the what now? Team Shark Attacks fell to the undefeated Total F*cking Nightmare Storm during the Kubb matchup. We had no idea was Kubb was. All we knew was that it looked like an item that you could buy in Ikea next to the frozen Swedish meatballs.
Turns out it was less annoying than Bocce Ball and more fun than Cornhole. If Kubb is truly a Viking game, then I should of prepped by playing a good ‘ol fashioned round of Crossbows and Catapults.
Team Shark Attacks unsure of the murky water ahead
Rannell throws a mean wood.
Can you handle the flash AND the pressure, mr. photographer? CAN YOU?!?!?!?
Clayton makes a big play. Lizelle is the only one somewhat interested.
If I’ve learned anything from Lost, it is to throw together or die alone.

Well, we had yet another rain filled Sunday at McCarren Park Pool but as always we still had a blast.
Cub Scouts represented and played even better than the Care Bears at times.
The line up was cut at the last minute from 4 bands to 3 due to a travel issue, but the three that played were good. I can always relate to the lyrics “I put some whiskey, in my whiskey”.
Some of the females that played dogeball this Sunday were the hottest of the summer and according to that female vote Ben H@ynes wins hottest male.
This next weekend is going to be huge.
The only Hip Hop line up of the summer rolls through featuring AESOP ROCK!
See you there.
There are some smartypants teams in our San Francisco Office League. No, not you Revolver/Midheaven SLOTH!
We’re thinking those liberal know-it-mosts over at KQED and Hyphen Magazine probably played their fare share of educational video games like Number Munchers and Oregon Trail (well, the hunting part was cool at least) and to this day, likely don’t even BOTHER with spell check.
Yeah, so… we’re going to even the playing field and do an ALL PICTURE EDITION of last week’s game of KUBB (pronounced KOOOOOOOOOOOB).
For those of you who DON’T know, KUBB is an ancient Viking game, similar to lawn bowling, only much more BRUTAL.
The goal is to knock down the other team’s pins. The winning team then gets to burn down the losing team’s village.
Here goes. If you guys INSIST on narrating events, feel free to leave some illuminating comments and/or post yer own recap.
