There is never a dearth of examples for why adult kickball leagues are a blight on human existence, but there have been an especially high concentration of stories lately to build a case for justifiable eugenics against the further breeding of the kickballing scum. One visionary organization, the Anti Yuppie Kickball Guerilla Front, is taking the initiative to rid our city parks of the vermin, as profiled by recent kickballing news clearinghouse Steady Burn. With one handy conspiracy chart, they show how the horrible skein of influence flows from these playgrounds of the iniquity. Their noble mission statement:
We, the Anti Yuppie Kickball Guerilla Front, do advocate all ridiculous direct action and pranks persuant to the collapse of kickball for Young Professionals in the greater Washington, DC area. For too long have we sat idle while all the chumps, douche-bags, yuppies, and stripey-shirt imported assholes of this town coalesced their power under this banner.
The recommended subversion tactics include stealing the kickball, paying homeless people to disrupt games through disgusting and revealing acts, and, naturally, violence. If you combine the latter two, paying the homeless person then beating said homelessman and robbing them after they've executed their mission, it adds a hint of Grand Theft Auto-esque fun.
(Full disclosure: I both reside in Northern Virginia and played in one of these kickball leagues a few summers ago. I only did it for the boozy hook-ups with recently relocated and lonely intern girls, I swear! The Ape be not proud. *Sigh* Don't cry for me, I'm already a douche.)


This is amazing! I suggest booting the kickball at the face of the smallest girl playing. I also once played in a kickball league in college, but I defend my involvement because the main rule stated that you must have a beer in your hand at all times, offensive and defensive. But there was STILL douchebags who took it seriously.
Fighting pasty white yuppies?
Now I know how Frodo felt going up against Sauron.
where do i sign up?
I've been paying the homeless to perform disgusting and revealing acts for years. I'm humanitarian like that.
"If you combine the latter two, paying the homeless person then beating said homelessman and robbing them after they've executed their mission, adds a hint of Grand Theft Auto-esque fun."
I'll be damned if this isn't a run on.
when I lived in NOVA I never needed kickball to pick up the interns. I found that some roofies and a van with blacked out windows did the trick every time.
Is my dodgeball league still ok?

You know, that's very well-put. I might have to go and puruse some of the material on their site.
First kickball, then men's softball…let's get rid of all of these fucksticks.
I played kickball last night. It's the Ultimate Frisbee leagues that are the real threat to our way of life.
Geez, I play in a Men's Softball league too.
I suppose my Basketball league during the winter is douchey too?
Softball isn't cool?!?! What the fuck man?! You try hitting a ball after 5 Sam Adams! If that isn't athletic, I don't know what is. Outside of chasing hookers down back alleys with a ski mask on.
People who bitch about yuppies in Washington D.C. are like people who bitch about black people in Washington D.C.
Punch, how did your last Quidditch match turn out?
what? no tits in this post? i didn't read it
Finally the truth about the Ape is revealed. The famous picture with the giant drunk Eagle was in fact photoshopped to cover up a WAKA t-shirt.
Next it will be revealed that the Ape blogs between games of flip cup at the Bottom Line.
I'm sorry, I didn't know playing sports made me a nerd.
/cancels gym membership and turns in football cleats
rock, paper, scissors leagues are still cool right?
@King Jeremy: Or you could just go to Front Page any day of the week.
@Burnsy: There has to be a joke about the Maj in there somewhere.
Kickball = being outside = getting tan. That and the flip cup are all the justification I need for playing on the Mall.
Don't bag on men's slow-pitch softball. It's currently the only exercise I get AND the only way I assert my dwindling manhood. *tear*
On a related note, the catcher for my softball team got thrown out of the last game for arguing with the umpire. That's got to be a first.
How dare you besmirch the good name of National Socialism by associating
usthem with adult kickball.Oh Ape!
It must suck living in Northern Virginia, because you always have to add the "Northern" so people don't think you're an inbred dumbass.
Although I still think you're an inbred dumbass. Your move Maryland's bitch.
Hmm..that was supposed to sound less visceral and more funny.
Sorry I haven't had my 7-11
sugar and syrup injectionfrench vanilla yet.
