Play-Offs!

2009-07-21T10:01:00.000-04:00

It's time for the play-offs!! All we need to do is win two games and we are headed to the Champ of Champs tournament!

We start off the evening with a rematch against the VC Lollygaggers (we may have to institute a mandatory take first pitch rule just to get back at them for last week… but who am I kidding… we are the Goat Rodeo Cowboys! We hate to walk.)

After we crush them we take on Santa and Team Hell. It should be a great night of softball.

Game is at 6:15pm vs. VC Lollygaggers on field 5 (the usual). Please let me know whether or not you will be able to attend.

PS... Tarsh, we could really use some heckling this week to throw Jimmy Dugan off his game.

Game 10: Team Hell

2009-06-26T08:33:00.001-04:00

Although things started off strong with some surprising offense by the Goat Rodeo Cowboy's, we just couldn't overcome our calamity of errors last night to pull out a victory.

Let's hope we can pull out two wins next week at our double header against our rival (aka the only team we've beat so far) Scared Hitless.

Next Games vs. Scared Hitless
Date: 7/2
Time: 6:15 & 7:15
Field 5

Game 9: VC Bandits

2009-06-19T09:33:00.000-04:00

Unfortunately we racked up another L instead of another W, but the team definitely started playing tough this week and I really started to see the team cohesion build. As always, if we could only improve on our offense we'd be a real contender for the league title!

Next Game vs. Team Hell
Date: 6/25
Time: 6:15 pm

**Also, one make up game has been posted. We now have a double header against Scared Hitless next Thursday, July 2nd.

Game 8: VC Lollygaggers

Rain Delay.... again...

Game 6: vs. Scared Hitless

2009-06-05T09:58:00.000-04:00

Woo Hoo!! The team played great last night. The defense was really clicking... and, while we still weren't hitting that great, we did manage to bring in enough runs to rack up our first (real) victory of the year!

Congrats to the game MVPs: PYT & Grinder

Next week's game:
vs. VC Lollygaggers (the re-match!)
7:15Pm, field 5

Game 1

2009-04-09T16:03:00.004-04:00

4/30... rain delay :-(

5/7 - Hopefully this is our first game!! Everyone do your anti-rain dance.

Game Summary:

And so the season ends. The Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys enjoyed another fun season... and another play-off appearance. Unfortunately, they missed the chance at the Champ of Champs yet again... but they still had fun on the ride!

Back by popular demand, Jack Footey will install a few last words of wisdom. Thanks to all the fans! See you next year!!

Deep Thoughts by Jack Footey

Before you criticize the umpire, you should walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes.

Is there anything more beautiful than a girl who has just hit a beautiful, beautiful softball hit and she is running around the beautiful softball field? And as she runs the bases she's carrying a beautiful rose in her teeth, and also she's carrying a very beautiful painting. And also, you're drunk.

It's funny that softball players are always running the bases searching for victory, and they never realized that the real victory was the fond memories they were creating.

Probably the earliest softball bats were nothing more than some sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.

I bet one legend that keeps recurring throughout history, in every culture, is the story of Spanks.

We tend to scoff at the beliefs of the umpires. But we can't scoff at them personally, to their faces, and this is what annoys me.

If you're a young softball player out on your first date, I bet it's real embarrassing if someone tries to strike you out.

Instead of having 'runs' in a softball game, they should just call them 'attempts to score' and in the end if you all end up with different 'attempts to score' so what, can't we all be brothers?

As we were playing, we saw a sign that said "No Alcohol Allowed at Park." Chaser said it should read "No Alcohol Allowed at Park Except when Playing Softball." I told her she should write in her suggestion to the Parks & Rec department, but she started saying it was a joke - just to get out of writing a simple letter! And I thought I was lazy!

I wish I would have a real depressing softball season and get so bummed out that I'd just quit my job and become a bum for a few years, because I was thinking about doing that anyway.

It's easy to sit there and say you'd like to have more hits. And I guess that's what I like about it. It's easy. Just sitting there, rocking back and forth, wanting that hit.

For the remaining two weeks of the season the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys are honored to have Jack Footey step in and write their softball blog. Enjoy!

Deep Thoughts by Jack Footey
It takes a big man to walk in softball, but it takes a bigger man to heckle that man.

Maybe in order to understand softball, we have to look at the word itself: "Softball". Basically, it's made up of two separate words - "Sof" and "tball". What do these words mean? It's a mystery, and that's why so is softball.

To me, softball is like a ballet, except there's no music, no choreography, and the whole thing hinges on if the dancers can hit each other.

If bases could scream, would we be so cavalier about stepping on them? We might, if they screamed all the time, for no good reason.

The memories of Byrne's Pub Softball games are still a source of strength to me. I remember we'd all pile into the car - I forget what kind it was and drive to the field. I'm not sure where it was, but I think there were some trees there. The smell of something was strong in the air as we played whatever sport we played. I remember a bigger, older guy we called "Santa." We'd hit some stuff, or not, and then I think we went somewhere with beer. I guess some things never leave you.

If you saw two guys named Hambone and Baller, which one would you think liked softball the most? I'd say Baller, wouldn't you? You'd be wrong, though. It's Hambone.

Children need encouragement. If a kid gets on base in softball, tell him it was a lucky hit. That way he develops a good, lucky feeling.

The face of Tarsh can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face.

I think the mistake a lot of us make is thinking the league-appointed umpire is our friend.

If you ever reach total enlightenment while drinking beer, I bet you could shoot beer out of you nose.

I hope if softball players ever take over the world, and they chose a king, they don't just go by who can hit the farthest, because I bet there are some really bad hitters with some good ideas.

Game Summary:
Baseball, it is said, is only a game. True. And the Grand Canyon is only a hole in Arizona. ~George F. Will, Men at Work: The Craft of Baseball, 1990

The day was Thursday, June 19, 2008 and it was opposite day....

On opposite day, there is no worry about fielding an entire team. In fact, subs were volunteering weeks in advance to play for the BPGRC's for this game.

On opposite day, all the players show up early, and there is never a worry that traffic would hold someone up (or more importantly hold the beer up!)

On opposite day, the ump is friendly and all call's go Byrne's Pub way... along with the call to ignore the beer drinking on the sideline.

On opposite day, everyone bats amazingly well.

On opposite day, Hammer doesn't wear a hat and PYT doesn't wear pants.

On opposite day, our pitcher doesn't give up one walk and the opposing batters swing at every pitch.

On opposite day, the BPGRC's never have that one inning defensively that puts the game out of reach. Oh, the glory of opposite day.

On opposite day, Spanks doesn't sweat, Tarsh doesn't burp and Tree doesn't tell the jelly vs. jam joke.... well maybe not... even opposite day couldn't prevent that from happening!

And lastly, on opposite day, the BPGRC's run rule their opponent to win the game!! Byrne's Pub Wins!! Hooray for opposite day!!

Game Summary:
Well, boys, it's a round ball and a round bat and you got to hit the ball square. ~Joe Schultz, 1969

The top ten rec softball rules that make winning hard for the Goat Rodeo Cowboys.

1. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed at the softball fields. ~ All this sneaking around is getting tiring.
2. Shoes must be worn by all players. ~ It is impossible to believe how much better we would be if only Traveling Dan could wear bright yellow Speedo flip flops.
3. Run Spread Rule: 15 runs after 4 innings or 10 runs after 5 innings. ~If only we had a little more time to mount our comeback!
4. No “trapper” type mitts are allowed except for catchers and first basemen. ~Ahh... the good old days when we all had trappers.
5. Pitches must have an arc no less than 6 feet and no more than 12. ~All of our bowling skills perfected in the off season are a complete waste!
6. A base runner coming into contact with a hit ball is out. ~I can't even count how many outs we have lost because players being hit by a bad throw do not also count as outs.
7. Each batter starts with the count 1 ball and 1 strike. ~I think it's only fair that each batter on the opposing team start with 3 strikes.
8. Any equipment or uniform deemed dangerous or offensive must be removed. ~How can we bring the heat if it's deemed too dangerous?
9. No bunting is allowed. Any bunting action (determined by the umpires) will result in an automatic out. ~When so many of our actual hits appear to be bunts how can we ever get any base runners?

Game Summary:
Good pitching will beat good hitting any time, and vice versa. - Casey Dillon Stengel

How the game would've gone if Spanks did not skip the game to watch Office Space:

As the BPGRC's arrived on the field they could feel the excitement in the air. They knew this was going to be a special night. So when Coach Cubby Bear pulled them over for a pep talk, a hush fell over the team. Cubby Bear whispered, " Before we go any further, all right, we have to swear to God, Allah, that nobody knows about this but us, all right? No family members, no girlfriends, nobody, " she whispered. "I have been authorized by Mr. Stein-Byrne-r to bribe you with anything possible to pull out a victory tonight. So you just tell me what you need to win this thing. How about 40 subscriptions to Vibe? Anyone want a PC Load letter? Or what if - and believe me this is a hypothetical - but what if you were offered some kind of a stock option equity sharing program. Would that do anything for you?

The teamed like the idea of the bribes and they all yelled in unison, "Fuckin' A, man!" and ran out to the field. They were finally motivated, but also slightly confused as to what they'd just agreed too. On his way out to the field, Hussle was overheard whispering to Hammer, "What am I gonna do with 40 subscriptions to Vibe?". To which Hammer quietly pondered, "PC Load Letter"? What the fuck does that mean?"

Despite the confusion, the motivation seemed to be working. Everyone was hitting and the BPGRC's were racking up the runs! But as is always the case, the team had one difficult inning and the score was all tied up again. With the defense struggling, Coach Cubby Bear took a trip to the mound. Coach Cubby Bear tried to tell Tummy that he needed to switch up his pitching style if we were gonna win the game. The ump was clearly favoring a low strike zone, and Tummy's high arch pitches just weren't gonna cut it. Tummy was not happy, "No way. Why should I change? He's the one who sucks.“Unfortunately the ump overheard this comment and was none to happy; he slowly strolled out to the mound and glared at Tummy. PYT quickly stepped in to divert attention from the pitcher, yelling at the ump, "Doesn't it bother you that you have to get up in the morning and you have to put on a bunch of pieces of flair?" This infuriated the ump and he quickly yelled back, "Yeah, well, that may be. But at least I never slept with Lumbergh." Seeing things were quickly getting out of hand, Bubba Kyle sprinted in from left center to diffuse the situation. At first Cubby Bear held him back but he quickly explained that he had training in this specific type of situation. He explained, "I deal with the god damn customers so the engineers don't have to. I have people skills; I am good at dealing with people. Can't you understand that? What the hell is wrong with you people?

After Bubba Kyle calmed everyone down, the game got back on track. But not before Coach Cubby Bear had a quick talking to with the catcher. She instructed Chaser to show the ump a little extra lovin' to get him back on the team's good side. So after a few bad calls resulting in men on in scoring position, Chaser backed up a bit and whispered to the ump in her most sultry voice, "I wanna take you out to dinner, and then I wanna go back to my apartment and watch 'Kung Fu'. Do you ever watch 'Kung Fu'?" And that was all it took, strike 1, strike 2, strike 3. The BPGRCs had kept their opponent from scoring any runs. The score was still tied! Now they just needed one run for victory!

The finally inning started strong for the BPGRCs. And quickly the bases were loaded. With ducks on the pond, the BPGRC's just needed one solid hit to seal the deal. Coach Tree noticed that Tarsh was up to bat. She also realized that statistics show that Tarsh hits down the left field line 9 times out of ten. She knew to really ensure a chance at victory she must take over as third base coach and try and distract the third basemen. Tree decided to consult with Traveling Dan on what the best thing to say to distract the third basemen would be. "Are you a Michael Bolton fan?I'll be honest with you, I love his music, I do, I'm a Michael Bolton fan. For my money, it doesn't get any better than when he sings "When a Man Loves a Woman"." was her first suggestion. To which Traveling Dan immediately replied, "No. No, man. Shit, no, man. I believe you'd get your ass kicked sayin' something like that, man." They quickly brainstormed and decided the best distraction was to talk about the most boring topic imaginable. So Coach Tree got the third baseman's attention and began talking, "You know what I do all day," she began, "I sit in a cubicle and I update bank software for the 2000 switch. You see, they wrote all this bank software, and, uh, to save space, they used two digits for the date instead of four. So, like, 98 instead of 1998? Uh, so I go through these thousands of lines of code and, uh... it doesn't really matter. I just stare at my desk; but it looks like I'm working. I do that for probably an hour after lunch. I'd say in a given week I probably only do about fifteen minutes of real, actual, work. " And with that, the third basement looked over at Coach Tree with pity and said, "Human beings were not meant to sit in little cubicles staring at computer screens all day, filling out useless forms and listening to eight different bosses drone on about mission statements. You deserve this win, I quit." And he walked off the field. Allowing Chaser to get on base and score the winning run!!

BPGRCs win!! BPGRCs win!! That's what I'm talkin' about when I talk about America!

Unfortunately, Spanks did skip the game to watch Office Space and the BPGRC's were run ruled yet again. But never fear, with only 6 teams in the league, Coach Cubby Bear still has high hopes for a play-off birth.

Game 3: Joe Dubya's

2008-05-15T08:05:00.001-04:00

WIN!!

Score: Joe Dubya's 9, Byrne's Pub 10

Game Summary:
What difference does the uniform make? You don't hit with it." ~Yogi Berra

After a stern talking to from their owner Mr. Stein-Byrne-r, who threatened pay cuts and popcorn rations if play did not improve, the BPGRC's took the field extremely focused in their match up against the new team on the block, Joe Dubya's. The BPGRC's started out tough with a quick three up three down inning. And after that first solid half inning, while they were running off the field, the ump yelled, "Game Over, Byrnes Pub Wins!" It was the quickest win in history!! But the BPGRC's didn't like the feeling of a win they didn't really earn. They didn't want their first victory of the season to come by forfeit, so with the Joe Dubya promise of a 9th player arriving at any minute, Coach Cubby Bear made the hard decision to allow the game to continue even if it meant possibly throwing their first win away.

Luckily, the Pubbers came out swinging in the first inning with the first three batters getting on base and eventually scoring (after some great acrobatics by Tummy). So far the decision to play was looking like a good one. The Pub was up 3 runs! But with the ump calling a strike zone the size of a shoe box, both pitchers were bound to struggle and three runs was just not gonna cut it.

So it was no surprise that just as quickly as the BPGRC's gained the lead they lost it, with a quick 6 run inning highlighted by a grand slam for Joe Dubya, their lead was gone. Humbled a bit, the team quickly rallied to push three more runs in and tie up the score. And then it happened. The worst call ever made by an ump, and the most unethical and flagrant lying ever witnessed by a manager. Since Joe Dubyas was playing a man down, every time the 10th batting slot was encountered they would be forced to give up an automatic out. With Joe Dubya's last out in the 4th inning being made by their 9th position batter, the BPGRC's were able to breathe a little easier at the start of the 5th inning knowing they were starting with the automatic out. Instead of that happening, the manager of Joe Dubya convinced the ump that the automatic out was already used in the previous inning. With no way to sway the ump in our direction (we definitely could've used Slavenator's power of persuasion) the team was forced to get four outs that inning. And unfortunately for the BPGRC's between the 3rd and 4th out Joe Dubya's scored 3 more runs.

Going into the bottom of the 7th, the BPGRC's led by 1 run. The team needed to hold strong and play tough defense to wrap up their first win of the season. And to really test their talent, fate had it so that the grand slam hitter was up to bat to try and tie the game. With an ENORMOUS hit he had Tree running wildly deeper and deeper into right center. Back and back she ran to the shouts of "Home run! Home run! Just touch all the bases on the way in" being yelled from the Joe Dubya sidelines. Farther back she ran when finally, with the ball just in reach, she came up with the catch and made a huge out and created a huge momentum swing for the BPGRC's! Nothing could stop them now, and despite all the fiascos of the night, the good guys finally pulled out the victory!! With their nice new jerseys and their two out-of-town fans cheering them on, the BPGRC's tacked up their first win of the season!

Game 2: Varsity Club Lollygaggers

2008-05-01T08:05:00.002-04:00

Loss

Score: Varsity Club Lollygaggers 18, Byrne's Pub 9

Game Summary:
There ought to be some other means of reckoning quality in this the best and loveliest of games; the scoreboard is an ass. ~Neville Cardus, A Fourth Innings with Cardus, 1981

Hot off their disappointing first game the BPGRC's came out with new found spunk in Game 2. Pitted up against one of their ultimate rivals, the Lollygaggers, the BPGRC's new they would have a tough game ahead. And after the first inning, the score remained tight and the BPGRC's felt like their luck was turning around. Unfortunately this glimmer of hope only lasted a few moments as the Lollygaggers bats were on fire in inning 2. Unable to muster up much offense of their own, the score quickly got out of control and the umpire had to inform the BPGRC's about the 3rd and 4th inning run rules (Article 17b of the ASA bylaws states: If one team leads the other by 15 or more runs upon completion of the 3rd or 4th inning the game shall immediately end and the team leading at that point in time shall be the winner.)

After the talking to, and allowing the opponent 14 runs in 3 innings, the BPGRC's stepped up their defense and only allowed 4 more runs over the next four innings. But in order to really make it a game, the BPGRC desperately needed to find some offense. Luckily in the bottom of the fourth, the BPGRC's started to find their batting groove and racked up 4 runs. The team had survived the 3rd and 4th without a run rule humiliation, but once again the umpire wandered over to the bench to explain the run rules for the 5th and 6th innings. (Article 17c of the ASA bylaws states: If one team leads the other by 10 or more runs upon completion of the 5th or 6th inning the game shall immediately end and the team leading at that point in time shall be the winner.)

Down 17 to 3 in the bottom of the 5th, the BPGRC's knew that the key to their survival was 5 runs. Starting the inning off strong, Hussle knocked out a great double and got the energy pumping on the bench. Up next, PYT showed amazing restraint and was awarded a walk for her patience at the plate. Hammer followed up with a single to knock in Hussle, and put the BPGRC's four runs away from their goal. Tree stepped up to the plate and advanced the runners but also racked up the first out of the inning. Bubba Kyle, Cubby Bear and Tummy all got on base with singles, with Bubba Kyle knocking in one run and Tummy knocking in two more. With Cubby Bear on second and Tummy on first, the BPGRC now needed just one more run to avoid the run rule. Tarsh strolled up to the plate and had a solid hit, but unfortunately caused a force out on third. The team now only had one last batter before the automatic out would squash their hopes of avoiding run rule humiliation. With runners on first (Tarsh) and second (Tummy), all the pressure was on Spanks to get a solid hit and allow Tummy time to score. Ball one, strike one.. the pressure was mounting! The Lollygagging pitcher floated one in and Spanks hit a solid line drive into the gap!! Tummy got the legs pumping and never quit running until he was home. Tummy scored!! BPGRC avoided the run rule!

Unfortunately the excitement peaked in the 5th inning, with each team only scoring one more run each in the last two innings making the final score Varsity Club Lollygaggers 18, Byrne's Pub 9. Despite the final score, the BPGRC's really came together in the last few innings and things seem to be looking up for next week's game.

Score: Byrne's Pub 11, Cardinal All-Stars 12

Game Summary:

Don't forget to swing hard, in case you hit the ball. ~Woodie Held

As it has been said by many teams before.... this is bound to be a rebuilding year. Slated with the challenge of replacing 5 veteran players (including the coach!) the 2008 season for the BPGRCs started out a bit questionable. But luckily without much convincing, interim Coach Cubby Bear was able to call on last years Subs to sign on for a full time commitment and, by a pure luck, was able to sign 3 hot rookies from the minor leagues.

With such great promise displayed by the new talent it was obvious that after a few practices this team could bring back the glory of yesteryear. Unfortunately, the BPGRC's only held one practice this season.. and it had a poor turn out. Consequently this first Game played out more like a practice than a real match up. Most of the team definitely appeared to be dusting off the cobwebs throughout the first few innings, and when they finally came together late in the game, it was just too little too late. Luckily the BPGRC's know where their priorities stand, beer and pizza, so they were not too phased by this first loss (from a newcomer team they should've beat!).

As this season brings many new beginnings to the BPGRCs, true fans should not worry. Although typically more of a crash and burn team later in the season, the BPGRC's look to be more like a marathon runner this year... slow and steady will win this race and take them straight on to the championship game!

Split Decision

Game 1 (Make Up Game) Score: Team Hell 9, Byrne's Pub 15

Game 5 (Make Up Game) Score: Byrne's Pub 4, Varsity Club DA 5

Game Summary :
Well, bite my butt and call me an apple. You would not believe the level of play that was displayed on the softball diamonds last night. It was as if it was a scene right out of the movies as the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboy's could feel their destiny leading them to the play-offs. The team came out swinging (and walking) in Game One and easily took down Team Hell for a second time this season. But as the newly attired Varsity Club DA strode onto the field, Coach Slaven knew the team was due for a pep talk.

As Coach Slaven got up off the bench we heard someone yell, "Phew! Until you did that, I couldn't tell if you were... drunk or dead." With a stern look, Coach Slaven hushed the crowd and began his pre-game pep talk. "All right, everyone, let's listen up now, listen up," Coach Slaven yelled. "Something important has just happened. I was in the toilet reading my contract, and it turns out, I get a bonus when we get to the World Series. So, let's play hard, let's play smart, use your heads."

And with those words of encouragement the BPGRC's took to the field, but not before over-hearing their opponenets pep talk as well. Their coach simply had one short sentence to say to his team, "Okay, let's make like a bread truck and haul buns ladies!"

And so the battle began. The game played out as a tough pitchers duel and, surprisingly, tempers only flared once or twice and in those rare occasions, it was mainly a battle between the batters and the umpire. Repeatedly Coach Slaven would yell, "That was clearly inside. That was a ball." And the umpire would always replay snidely, "Listen, yesterday that was a ball, tomorrow it might be a ball, but today it's a strike."

The game played on and to the BPGRC's excitement and amazement they started to think "We can win this! My god we could actually win this game!!" But just as that joyous thought crossed their minds, they heard the VCDA Coach spring to action. He yelled to his team, "It was made very clear to me what I'm supposed to do here. I smile, wave my little hat... I did that, so when do I get paid? When will my team come through for me?" And as the fear rippled through the infield, VCDA began to pull together.

The BPGRC's saw their victory slipping away, but in one last ditch strategic effort Tarsh came up with a plan. Tarsh suggested, "What if at a key moment in the game my, my uniform bursts open and, uh, oops!, my bosoms come flying out? That, that might draw a crowd, right?" To which The Wall replied, "You think there are men in this country who ain't seen your bosoms?" And with that, the BPGRC's knew they were out of ideas.

The BPGRC's played hard and tough and no one was disappointed with the effort put forth in this last lost. In fact, the level of play seemed to motivate the team like no other. Everyone there seemed ready to fight one more time, fight as hard as they could, and beat VCDA next week for a spot in Champ of Champs. We hope to see all our fans out again for our play-off games as you all seemed to bring us good luck!

PS... If you haven't yet caught on, here's your last clue. Are you crying? Are you crying? ARE YOU CRYING? There's no crying! THERE'S NO CRYING IN BASEBALL!

Loss :-(

Game 10 Score: Byrne's Pub 1, Roosters 6

For the great fans of the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys, here is a list of useful softball terminology :

piz-za: nourishment required to sustain softball players

pop-corn: sole appetizer served at Byrne's Pub

beer: synonymous with water

fun: 1. something experienced after mass consumption of pizza, popcorn and beer (see above); Synonyms: 1. Byrne's Pub 2. karaoke at Mickey's

mo-ti-va-tion: only allowing the BPGRC's to order as many pizzas as they had runs in a game

mak-ing the play-offs: 1. a near impossibility. 2. a goal that resulted in the Goat Rodeo Cowboys actually rooting for their arch nemesis (and all around bad-guy team) Varsity Club DA to win a game

em-bar-rass-ment: losing to a team that you previously run ruled

Game 9: Team Hell

2007-06-14T23:45:00.000-04:00

VICTORY!!!

Game 9 Score: Team Hell 5, Byrne's Pub 9

Game Summary :
For the die-hard Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboy's fans, this was the night they had been waiting for all year; the night where their beloved team would pull together some offense and finally win a recreational softball game!! Despite a scary pregame, in which one of our players succumbed to Cheetoh deficiency and was unable to participate, spirits (and beers) were flying high.

Play ball was yelled, and the very confident BPGRCs team took to the field. Immediately it seemed as though it was impossible not to have fun as the umpire screamed and danced and gyrated with each call. The levity of the moment helped the BPGRCs quickly deal with the opponent in a very neat three up three down inning. Thinking almost nothing could boost their confidence any higher, the team took up the bats only to firmly rest them on their shoulders and watch as Team Hell struggled through two innings and 7 walks. After racking up a solid 8 run lead, the jovial side of the BPGRC's that had not been seen for weeks finally made an appearance and it was a beautiful sight. Players were laughing, boozers were boozing, ju-jitsuer’s were ju-jitsuing and thoughts turned to prom as the BPGRCs very happily added a greatly needed second win to their record.

As the team reflected on their win they became existential about recreation softball and they identified two truths that night. A force out is only a force out until it's not and more importantly softball is always more fun when you're having fun (well, really they learned that it's WAY more fun to play an opponent much closer to their skill level...)

Loss

Game 8 Score: Byrne's Pub 4, Varsity Club KB 14

Game Summary :
In an amazing coincidence, a famous late show TV host's cousin, Dove Batterman, was at the fields last night to watch the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys take on Varsity Club KB. And after witnessing such an amazingly awful display of softball he came up with one of those infamous top ten lists about our beloved team.

..... drum roll....

Top Ten Things I learned From the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys
10. No matter what the order, the BPGRCs can't bat.
9. Tranq is an injury soothsayer.
8. Even if the outfielders play on the opposite field's infield, VCKB will find a way to hit it over their head.
7. It's just not a game until Softball Dan re-injures his scab.
6. Taking the first strike causes heated arguments.
5. Nobody wants to see Slavenator's cup.
4. The only activity that the BPGRCs excel at in over 90 degree heat is drinking.
3. Pizza duty really means figuring out how many forms of pork you can get on one pizza. (bacon, pepperoni, ham...)
2. NBA games take waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long.
And the number one thing Dove Batterman learned from the Goat Rodeo Cowboys.... the ladies LOVE Thriller.

Games 6 & 7: Varsity Club DA vs. Byrnes Pub

2007-05-31T23:15:00.000-04:00

Double Loss

Game 6 Score: Varsity Club DA 4, Byrne's Pub 3

Game 7 Score: Byrne's Pub 2, Varsity Club DA 8

Game Summary :
Last Thursday night the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboy's finally had their whole team in tact and uninjured (unfortunately that only lasted for a few innings) and they were ready to turn their losing record around. And after the first few innings of Game 6 it looked as though the tide had turned in their favor.

As is their MO this year, the BPGRC's were managing to stay in the game by pure defensive grit alone and by the bottom of the 4th inning VCDA was shaking in their cleats. VCDA couldn’t figure out how to take down the impenetrable wall that was the BPGRC’s defense, so they decided to play dirty. With one strong whack of the bat, and a whack of Bruiser's shin, the VCDA took out the heart and soul of our infield. It seems, just when we thought the origin of Bruiser’s nickname had faded into the horizon she unfortunately got nailed by another line drive, securing the nickname for another few years.

With the mighty second basewoman injured, the BPGRC’s buckled down and tried to prove that they could play even with a (wo)man down. The BPGRC’s held the game to a tie in the bottom of the seventh, and a Texas Shootout began. Unfortunately the pressure of just one pitch per batter was too much for the team as they ultimately fell 4-3 in game one.

Taking a que from the crazy knife wielding ju-jitsu fighters practicing their maneuvers behind the BPGRC dugout, the team put on their warrior faces and tried to battled back in Game 7. Unfortunately even with the loud, yet injured, cheering section rooting them on, the BPGRC’s could not pull out a win in Game 7.

Unfortunately, in a recreational sport where the final score should reflect that of a football game, the BPGRC’s still seem to be playing golf. We can only hope that one of these weeks the team will figure out how to get some offense going...

Since the BPGRC’s continue to demonstrate amazing defensive prowess, the Byrne's Pub coaching staff found it appropriate to award one MVP this week for the player with the best defensive outing. And so, the Byrne’s Pub Coaching staff would like to congratulate McDizzy for his amazing defensive plays. He continually sacrificed his body and dove all over the outfield to keep these games within reach. Nice hustle McDizzy!

One positive note... at least Flo won!!

Games 3 & 4: Varsity Club KB vs. Byrnes Pub

2007-05-11T15:41:00.000-04:00

Double Loss

Game 3 Score: Varsity Club KB 15, Byrne's Pub 5

Game 4 Score: Varsity Club KB 13, Byrne's Pub 1

Game Summary :
Strolling out to Tuttle Park field 5 last night, the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboy's (BPGRC) felt confident. They had a certain swagger about them. After their Game 2 domination they were pumped up to demonstrate their softball prowess yet again. And as their opponent approached in the far far distance, the BPGRC's grimaced and put on their game faces. It wasn't until the members of Varsity Club KB got closer that the BPGRC's really got a good look at their opponents, their HUGE muscle bound opponents. After sizing up the VCKB team, it was apparent that these 10 people were raised for only one thing, slow pitch softball.

As the BPGRC's took the field they hoped for the best, but the softball freaks that were Varsity Club KB were just too much to handle. Of course it didn't help that the BPGRC's forgot to bring their bats to the game. Luckily the umpire let them play without them, and of course VCKB didn't complain. So inning after inning VCKB strung together hit after hit while the BPGRC's tried to find anything that might resemble a bat. Twigs were used, empty beer cans taped together were tried, but in the end most people just used their hands to swat at strikes and mostly they hoped they'd get a walk. The result was devastating offensively for the BPGRC's and this disadvantage is reflected in the final score of the games.

Despite the horrible offense, there were two players who really stood out defensively. The BPGRC coaching staff would like to congratulate McDizzy & Pinto Pangra for their amazing effort in both games.

It was a sad day for the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboy’s; they just couldn't win despite their best efforts. But Flo can still win!! Vote now and help a Byrnes bartender take down the competition! Vote for Flo!

After a very productive off-season, the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys took on the 2007 expansion team, Roosters. Boasting a 100% retention on starting players from last season, the Byrne's Pub Goat Rodeo Cowboys felt pretty confident as they hustled to take their defensive positions. In the top of the first the BP-GRC's played tough D and allowed only one run. This was followed up by an offensive shellacking as the BP-GRC's answered back with 6 runs. After dominating the first inning, the BP-GRC's were able to hold on to the lead and eventually run rule Roosters in only 5 innings.

Despite a very promising start to the season, the competition wasn't all that tough and the Goat Rodeo Cowboys played a very relaxed game. Their first true test should come next week with their matchup against Varsity Club KB.

Who loves to drink and has two thumbs (I guess really it's four thumbs?). These guys!

Good work Slavenator. No one should ever let that yummy bacon go to waste.

Time for Karaoke. McDizzy assumes the singing position.

Bunt and The Wall try their hand at some bar synchronized swimming.... I think?

When the chair dancing starts, the fun really begins :-)
