fresno kickball
fresnans, any of you out there interested in some kickball? i've been missing my sport fix since i stopped playing soccer. softball was aight, but just didn't do it for me. today i saw this, which led me to this. i'm interested.
it's for a kickball league that is starting in fresno. so, we get to play. if we sign up. i've sent them an email, and these people have expressed interest in it: heather brian adam
Mellow, they recommend that you subscribe to their email bulliten so that they have a good estimate of the people involved and so you can be kept up to date with the goings on.
not a problem. it would be quite eas to hook up some soccer uni's, the shirts at least.
depending on our team name, we could even get some sweet orlando pirates t shirts (they're a south african club). i actually just ordered some indoor soccer shoes that have some skull & crossbones on the side.
here's an email tv sent me, although you don't get the benefit of the drawing: 1. the black parts (stripes and shorts) should be navy blue, but i dont have the proper pen at work. 2. i wanted a shorter short, but thought men might not want them. 3. the shirt is fitted, its cuter that way. 4. i wasnt sure about the socks 5. lol, i cant believe i wasted time doing this
my response: 1.uhh, why would you have the black parts be navy blue and not black? 2. short lengths can vary. i have several black adidas soccer shorts, of varying length. as long as we all go w/black shorts, some difference is aight. 3.fitted shirts are only good on euros. and, last i checked, none of us are. trust me, nobody's gut is going to look good w/the shirt all tight on it. 4. well, white or black. or, depending on the other color we bring into the scheme. 5. i totally can
so, i think black is part of the proper color scheme. i would say we go w/one of these options: -black & orange - we're giants fans, and i've got a grip of orange shirts from fpu as well -black & white - sort of germany looking, the white shirt is not going to be all hot in the sun -black & yellow - well, two of us are tigers
really, black shorts are primo. i also think all of those different color shirts would go nicely with a pirate them.
and apparently someone that can count. we've got our minimum for gents, although it sure would be helpful to have like 6 more guys and 7 more ladies. you know, subs and such.
totally down for it. i could see the fresnan, famous whitewater being into it. in fact, famous posted something and i told him he could be on our team. not sure if either would be into it, but the fresnan may be intrigued due to his love for wiffle ball.
if they read this post, they can feel free to leave a response.
Ok I will join up but was there any info on when this is going to start and what nights or anything specifics? I am going to be picking up my marathon training this month and it really does take up a lot of my time so I may not be able to make them all.
And Mellow we are not all Giants fans, I favor the Dodgers. I was with Adam with yellow, black and orange is halloween to me (and hot), but whatever it sounds like you have already decided so I wont pout too much;)

i want to play. also, ill design the outfits. any color ideas?
woody is in too
well, i am partial to black.
C'mon Ed, can't you give up that color at the very least for running around in the sun? How about sunshine-y yellow? =P
im gonna pick orange if you cant come up with something good. orange with magenta accents.
how about turquoise?
can't we all agree on orange and black? we're all giants fans here

crap, i mean three of us (so far) are edison tigers. wasn't woody a tiger in wasco?
"theme" not them.
sara texted in that she likes orange & black.
I can roll in orange and black.
we got to do some more recruiting. you play a minimum of 8 on the field, max 11. they recommend 18-26 players on a team (subs, missing people).
here's who i've got:
ed
heather
brian
adam
sara
woody.
so, we need @ least two more ladies, and one more guy. and then we need more people for subs & such.
and apparently someone that can count. we've got our minimum for gents, although it sure would be helpful to have like 6 more guys and 7 more ladies. you know, subs and such.
How about some of the other Fresno bloggers outside of our circle?

Our news friend is interested. Maybe he can recruit some folks from channel 30.

Joe'l is in as long as the league is not on Thursdays and the shorts are long enough! Haha.
I on the other hand...will watch from the sidelines.
Yeah, well, Dodger fans don't get no say 'round these parts lady.
Apparantly that means no one with any taste has any say, thats unfortunate.
trick please, i roll with so much flavor you can taste me through the screen.
Unfortunate for you, but not for all us tasteless folk.
I'll take having no taste and still getting a vote. =P
I'd be down for some kickball action.
i spread the word at my place of employment.
P.S. the league doesn't show up on the WAKA website any more. Or am I missing something?
Look again - Registration is now OPEN!
Games are Friday nights in Clovis.
