AND I TRY WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM MY FRIENDS

I wasn't kidding when I said it was all about a day of games....we weren't messing around.  We played hard until the sun went down...21 games were scheduled and we completed 19!!!  I'm telling you the Ref's did their job.  Unfortunately I fractured my lower ass bone as the first participant in the Standing Broad Jump (I know... I know it seems nearly impossible to do in an event like that but when you are A)stupid  B)wearing two different shoes and C)jumping in sand that is over top CEMENT it can and did happen) so that event was cancelled (PS it took 3 months before I could tuck and roll like a ball again!) Also we ran out of time for the ping pong tournament.  Extra games of battleball were played for supposed fun and the boys had no mercy for the girls...one after another came off the playing field sporting, welts, bruises, and sprained digits.  The games ceased after the final pull on Tug Ohhhhh War. 

To review all the game scores and stats go to Game Results.

Kosmo's Homeroom

 

Digger's Homeroom
Awards
Homerooms throw balls at each other in a cruel and unusual manner.  When you are hit by a ball and fail to catch it you are out of the game.  The last person standing wins for their team.
Incoming
 
 
 
Somebody get that guy a belt, suspenders...something!
Donald, can you protect the harem?
Kim's out
All this work is making me thirsty
 
 
No comment
break it down now
Now it's Boys vs Girls
Go girls!
 
Donald's throw....
WHACK...got her...she's out!
We need a time out!
Working on a new strategy 
The boys remain confident
Even hanging back by the fence didn't help.
Just cuz they killed us doesn't mean we can't have fun.
Each homeroom gathers at one end of the rope and whoever pulls the other teams knot across the line wins.
Everybody in position..
Ready...
Pull..
High five

Digger's win 

You must fling 5 beer coasters inside or within a coaster length of the plate where points are added up and go toward a team total.
Lynne gets the spot light
You try to flick 10 smoke butts into a Maxwell House coffee can.  (rubber gloves optional)
 
The competitors were "smokin'"
The edge went to Kosmo's team with a 5 person smoker advantage to Digger's one (Smitty) even though Kosmo's only ended up winning by one point it was a close match.
Crit cans only 1, how lame!
Ahhhh the girls get to rest the whistles
Look at Chet focus
or maybe it's the reach as he sinks 3 for his team
Stacey's pulls out his 2
Smitty, the only hopeful for Dig's, knocks in only 2
Danny, an occasional cigar smoker, nets 3
Donny got burned with ZERO
Kari's choice to kick the habit several years ago hurts her as she missed them all too.
Guys are to blow up the inflatable bone, place it between his leg and run up to the girl where he puts it between her legs and both run to the finish line connected together.
 
Billy you need to be saving your oxygen for that bone.

Chet...it's limp..how do you expect to be a winner with that?

Blake said "Look Laura is still laying on the ground over there"
At least he could come over here and help me up!
hmmmmmm
Female partner runs up to a pair of jeans, places in one leg and runs to their partner where he puts in his leg and they run to the finish together.

Start by chugging a beer, jump rope 10X, play mini basketball, write at the desk "I will not talk in class" 5X, paddle ball 5X, unlock the lunch box and throw back a Jell-O shot.

Stacey sucked...9th place with 3 min 47 sec
Jump Lush Jump, gets 2nd with 2 min .07 sec

The wind up...
the throw...
and yes baby...but wait, you got 4th and that doesn't count for points, oh well it landed at 61ft 4in
Okay...I need to beat 48ft?
How about settling for an A+ for form and 5th place with 41ft
But Kim this is my weakest event, my little wrists put me at a disadvantage for the Shot Put....
Chet and Di size up Lisa's throw but Lisa is happy with her 8th place finish at 33ft 10in
