SLAM Diabetes

The first annual SLAM Diabetes Tournament, played at Little Fenway and Little Wrigley, appears to have been a huge success. They will be having the 2nd annual SLAM Diabetes tournament in mid-June next year so if you're wanting to get in on that just go to their site and register. This is just one more tournament to consider when you name tournaments that support a great cause. Also, when watching the video you'll notice Luis Guzmán hanging out at the tournament.

The latest episode of This Month In Wiffleball from the Palisades WBL is online! As always it's good but this episode displays just how much the competition is heating up. The Blue Jays (3 championships under their belt) might not make the playoffs...pretty shocking. The White Sox are still dominating with a 15-3 record. One of our magazine's editors, Matt Riegler (Yankees), is in the video a few times as well and seems to be doing quite well at the plate. If you follow Palisades at all and for some reason have strayed from their site, dig your head out from under the sand and watch this video. The playoffs are about to start.

Oh Those Pre-Teens...

This must be their first boy-girl party. I remember my first girl-boy party. It was my 13th birthday party. Only one girl showed up. I never said it was a good boy-girl party, but since there was a girl there - it counts. Anyway I'm sure this party went through the usual motions where the guys stand in one area growing into their faces while the girls huddle on the opposite side of the room fiddling with their braces. The only thing that makes those awkward moments worse is when Will Smith's "Big Willie Style" is blaring from a boombox in the corner. So after the music is either changed or turned off the mingling finally begins. Among boys of varying heights we find David Holland - who apparently gallivants around parties without socks or a shirt.

It seems that a wiffleball bat can be summoned, seemingly from nowhere, in moments of sheer boredom to be used as an instrument of violence. Nothing breaks the ice at a party better than inflicting pain on someone using a yellow plastic bat! You can add this to the growing pile of intentionally hitting people with a wiffleball bat. I keep saying to myself that I've seen them all but soon enough another one is uploaded and I find myself wondering when everyone is going to realize that a wiffleball bat does, in fact, hurt quite a big when swung at full force upon someone's body. Why accept facts when you can hurt somebody, right?

I wonder if they used the chandelier as a piñata after everyone was tired of being hit?
