CrossFit and Kickball

kickballmayhemKickball. It’s all you’re thinking about, admit it. The big showdown is tomorrow at 3pm. PowerBarners start crying at 3:15. Cook-out afterwards.

Forget how to play? Here are the basic rules. (Although those rules don’t show any of the “Hold the player at first base” move employed by Sam in this photo. Hmm.)

Reminder for CrossFit schtuff: Classes today at noon and 5pm. Sat at 8am. Sun = no classes and get your booty outside day.

Finally, in case you’re a big moron, WikiHow has an article on How to Be an Awesome Kickball Player, with stunning tips like “Don’t let it [the ball] slip out of your hands.” (PowerBarners, go ahead. Read up on it.)

  • Jen

    I win!

  • Jen

    Who’s coming to the noon class?

  • Jen

    are you all asleep?

  • Jen

    Janice kicked ass today at 6am!

  • Jen

    Get off FB and get on the CFW blog!

  • Jen

    ROck star your going down!

  • Jen

    Has anyone seen Viv?

  • Jen

    How about Lis?

  • Jen

    Powerbarn….I hope your ready!

  • Jen

    The platforms are ready!

  • Jen

    Slow…..your all so slow!

  • Jen

    Welcome to the jungle baby!

  • Jen

    Beat it just beat it…Nate what are the rest of the words?

  • Jen

    They told him don’t you ever come around here
    Don’t wanna see your face, you better disappear
    The fire’s in their eyes and their words are really clear
    So beat it, just beat it

    You better run, you better do what you can
    Don’t wanna see no blood, don’t be a macho man
    You wanna be tough, better do what you can
    So beat it, but you wanna be bad

  • Jen

    Just beat it, beat it, beat it, beat it
    No one wants to be defeated
    Showin’ how funky and strong is your fight
    It doesn’t matter who’s wrong or right
    Just beat it, beat it
    Just beat it, beat it
    Just beat it, beat it
    Just beat it, beat it

  • Jen

    You have to show them that you’re really not scared
    You’re playin’ with your life, this ain’t no truth or dare
    They’ll kick you, then they beat you,
    Then they’ll tell you it’s fair
    So beat it, but you wanna be bad

  • Jen

    @ Nate,
    Name this song:
    Love is like a bomb, baby, c’mon get it on
    Livin’ like a lover with a radar phone
    Lookin’ like a tramp, like a video vamp
    Demolition woman,

  • Jen

    @Nate, Ok here’s another one take a guess….don’t use google!

  • Jen

    “Say you don’t know me, or recognize my face
    Say you don’t care who goes to that kind of place
    Knee deep in the hoopla, sinking in your fight
    Too many runaways eating up the night”

  • Jen

    C’mon Migs this ones for you take a guess…

  • Jen

    “I’ve seen you on the beach and I’ve seen you on TV
    Two of a billion stars it means so much to me
    Like a birthday or a pretty view
    But then I’m sure that you know it’s just for you”

  • Jen

    Can we sign Beat it when the PowerBarners show up?

  • Jen

    If they show up!

  • Jen

    Did Toon run away or is he still one of us?

  • http://www.crankfire.com Nathan

    OMG.

  • Jen

    Migs, this is one you should know.

  • Jen

    Don’t wanna spend another year facing the same wall
    “Don’t wanna play another game bouncin’ the same ball
    Don’t wanna wait for that lucky break
    Got a feelin’ someday I’m gonna make
    Yeah, all the right moves”

  • Jen

    Rockstar this ones for you….

  • Jen

    “I’m unusual, not so typical
    Way too smart to be waitin’ around
    Tai chi practicing, snowboard champion
    I could fix a flat on your car
    I might even be a rock star!
    I might even be a rock star!

    Sometimes I wish when the phone rings that
    It would be you sayin’ let’s hang out
    Then you confess that there’s something special between us
    Why don’t we find out”

  • Jen

    Rockstar ….your song is by……….Hannah Montana! LOL

  • Jen

    DONE!

  • Chris

    OHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGODOHGOD

  • Chris

    I’m too late :(

  • migs

    Hahaha! Don’t Hassle the Hoff

  • Jen

    Anyone,,,,,,

    “Working hard to get my fill,
    everybody wants a thrill
    Payin’ anything to roll the dice,
    just one more time
    Some will win, some will lose
    Some were born to sing the blues
    Oh, the movie never ends
    It goes on and on and on and on”

  • Jen

    Nice Migs! Strong work!

    If anyone still uses those shiny discs

  • Lady V

    Dude ur nuts…don’t u have a job or something?!?!?lol!!!

  • Jill

    Jen!!! Your out of control!

  • Jen

    It’s the new hair cut! Now I’m wild!

  • Chris

    I think this part of the kickball rules is worth noting:

    “The game is over when the school bell rings, the ball pops, or the ball is lost in such acts as kicking the ball into the street or onto the roof. At the end of the game, the team with the most points wins. However, if a team loses the ball by kicking it one[sic] the roof etc., that team automatically loses. Also, the kid that did it becomes instantly unpopular.”

  • lisbeth

    Oh. NOW she’s wild?

    Oh yeah, clearly the song is “pour some sugar on me”. Though I believe the best line is:

    “I’m hot, sticky sweet, from my head down to my feet”

    Did I mention I saw the Lep at the Big E many years back. Awesome stuff. Oh yeah.

    Jen.. put the coffee and the speed balls down… Holy Crap. I’m on my way to CFW to do Tooner around nooner… since I’ll be a little late.

  • kirk

    Was one of those songs seriously by the Hoff? No Migs and Sue for the CFT last night? I was looking forward to your marches toward 1000. Great job by Big D. You still underestimate your strength…but watch out next time!

  • migs

  • Rich

    I would like to CFT tonight too.
    Only after I have some of whatever Jen is havin!!!

  • Chris

    ♪Pour some shook-up ramen…♪

  • Rockstar

    Holy crap Jen….Way too much time on your hands and lay off the caffeine….must clarify that you did have a fragment in your blog challenge…..so disqualified! I’m still the current longest blog holder….IT’S GOOD TO BE ME…HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! :)

  • Jen

    What’s this fragment you speak of? Did Darsh point it out to you?
    Who is having a drink with me after class?

  • Jill

    Me Me Me!! That’s too having a drink after class…in case no one takes u up on the offer-I’ll be drinking at the harley bar (jen u’d love it) & u’ll be in “no sun or warm weather” connecticut it may be long distance but its better than drinking alone!

  • becky

    Dear Tanner

    With Love
    Becky
