The People Have Spoken

From time to time, It's Just Kickball likes to feature Kickballer Polls on various topics. This week's topic was Who should be considered the Real #1 team in SCK?

The I.J.K Top Ten Poll is basically based on loosely complied statistics and other arbitrary methods. From now on,  the Kickballer's Pick factor will be added to the list of arbitrary bogus qualifications along with the normal statistical considerations and possibly the Angry Umps #1 pick, the Commish's #1 Pick, and the I.J.K #1 pick.. This week's kickballer's pick is the once mighty Shockers.

The Shocker Era has been on a steady decline for 3 seasons now. In the beginning, it looked like the Shockers would quickly become SCK's first kickball dynasty. However after winning two back-to-back King of Kickball titles, they have done little to show they will ever reach true dynasty status. Yes, they win games. Yes, the destroy some teams. Yes, they are always in the playoffs, but what good is that when the rival Drunken Monkeys eliminate them from King of Kickball contention season after season. At this point, the only thing the Shockers are known for is eliminating the Balls & Dolls from the playoffs every season and even that is quickly becoming a novelty. However if the Shockers meet the Balls & Dolls in the playoffs this season, hands down the Balls & Dolls win that game. Easily.

For now the Shockers sit at #1 simply because they scored the most runs during Week #1 and basically digested a rookie team, which is what Top Ten teams are suppose to do.

Rich, you need to stop writing about us. Your a lil shocker hating drama queen. We're here to play kickball and nothing else. Why dont you write about your stupid Monkeyz and how they replaced yo ass? Oh and how can you call winning B2B ships and making it to every semi final since SCKs existence a slow decline for the so called "Shocker Era". Uhhhh I dont get it. One more thing you've only beat us twice, I repeat twice in the semis so get over it buddy. We've been handing Balls & Dolls their asses since day one. Come to think of it I dont think they've ever beat us. So until we meet them again, hands down Shut Yo Mouth! Peace Out.

I agree. This entire blog is fucking stupid. No one even reads it. 1st week and already starting with bullshit. Just a way to get attention.

How do you get to write a blog? I think each division should have a blogger. That way every team can be represented.

Fucken Rich is always looking for an angle and his blog is always at its best when the Shockers have that big red target on our back! Were not even that good, because hes right until we beat the Monkeyz or any other top-tier team we'll also be an also-ran.

Didn't the monkeyz beat shockers the first season in regular season? So 3-1-1 monkeyz?
