Week 9 Predictions

Can you believe that it's already week 9? Its crazy right? If you have had a good time, be sure to fill out your survey that WAKA sent you in your email. If you have not had a good time, be sure to delete that email quickly. So how is this week going to pan out? I'll tell you how.

Vicious and Delicious vs Raging Balls on field A
Vicious and Delicious has been on a terrible 3 game slide as of late. They started the season looking like rockstars and have ended it looking like burnt out roadies. Raging Balls is pretty psyched for the game, they can't wait for their first win of the season, even if it doesn't ever actually come. I think its finally Raging Balls' time to shine as they pull off the upset against the downtrodden Vicious and Delicious. Prediction: Raging Balls 2 Vicious and Delicious 1

New Kicks On The Block vs Your Mom Makes a Dry Roast on field B
If Vicious and Delicious loses and New Kicks on The Block win, this matchup will be rehashed in the first round of the playoffs. If not, then who knows what the hell will happen. I mean I'm sure I could figure it out if I wanted to and lay out all of the playoff possibilities with you but I'm feeling lazy so I would rather have the easy outcome happen. Prediction: New Kicks On The Block 4 Your Mom Makes a Dry Roast 3

Tech USA - Where My Pitches At vs Anything But Blue Balls on field C
How will ABBB play this week? Isn't that always the question? Have you wondered how crazy it is that a team with 4 words in their name is NOT the longest team name in the division? Ever wonder what the inside of a kickball looks like? Have you noticed that all of the sentences in this paragraph are questions? Have you thought to consider that that may be because ABBB is just one big question mark each week. Will they be good? Will they be terrible? Prediction: ABBB confound reality and both win by a huge margin and lose by a huge margin at the same time.

Don't Touch Our Balls vs We've Got The Runs on field D
We've Got The Runs captain, Anne, started her kickball career on Don't Touch Our Balls last season though it's not certain that anyone from DTOB remembers her. She's hoping they will remember her after this game as she hopes to knock off the kickball titans. I hope to win the lottery too. Prediction: Don't Touch Our Balls 6 We've Got the Runs 2

Bull Gators vs The Balled and The Beautiful on field A
The Bull Gators are probably the most improved team on the season. The Balled and The Beautiful improved for a little bit and then remembered that they weren't really all that good at this kickball thing. They are really good at having fun and wearing snuggies though. Prediction: Bull Gators 6 The Balled and The Beautiful 0

I Already Hit That vs Kick In A Box on field B
This could be the most fun game of the week. I fully expect Erik and the Limeys to show up in full Halloween costumes. I also fully expect to collect royalties if Erik ever creates a band called Erik and the Limeys. Prediction: Kick In A Box 1 I Already Hit That 0

Ball Kickers vs Quit Yer Pitchin on field C
Tuesday night is bobble head night. No, no one will be handing out little dolls. There should just be plenty of offense to allow Courtney to run the bases with her distinctive running style. Why should there be plenty of offense? Ball Kickers have a runs against average of 4.88. That's second worst in the division to Raging Balls and their astronomical 7.00 but Raging Balls is playing Vicious and Delicious who are notoriously quiet on offense. Prediction: Quit Yer Pitchin 8 Ball Kickers 3

Seminoles vs Suck My Kick on field D
This is the matchup of the week even though it may not count for anything by the time the game starts. Don't Touch Our Balls is the only team that can unseat the Seminoles but even if they win, it may come down to the Runs Against tie breaker (which the Seminoles currently have a slight advantage in). The only way for the Seminoles to lose the division is if DTOB wins and the Seminoles lose and give up more than 2 more runs than DTOB gives up. Confusing? Maybe but I'm sure the Seminoles are hoping that I didn't just jinx them. The division Regular Season Champion Trophy will be on hand for the game. Prediction: Seminoles 2 Suck My Kick 1
