2007 Week 2
Week Two-- Too Good
The Pirhana's show why they are the most fun team!
They have customized thier uniforms and have an alias for each player.

Something very unusual happened week two.
Perfect weather. I thought I
fell asleep and woke up in Southern California.
This week the league would like to welcome some special Olympians from
St. Camillus Special Olympics. They
will be setting up a net and playing alongside us.
They want to be known as the Volley
Warriors. Feel free to stop by and
cheer them on.
The team formally known as Abbracciamentos took the young Turks from the
Sugar Bowl three games to two. The
taller, older Abbracciamentos used every trick in the book to overcome sped and
`youth. In the end though---size
matters.
Simon Says Sea Bar took five
straight ………losses. Oh well you
can’t win them all. The Flip Cup
All Stars beat the Mighty Boosh 4-1. Who
need Tricia? They have Tyrone! They
have their sights on Ozone Layers.
Pier 92 Pirahanas just broke their own record from last year. They won three
games which is one more than they won all last year.
The Harbor Light is not happy.
It’s kind of like giving up Roger Maris’s 61ST home run.
Yet again, the Pirahanas have creatively personalized their jerseys. They
are the Andy Warhol’s of the league.
The Beach House took four from whoever they played.
Eileen couldn’t remember.
Bob Fash was not there due to real estate courses he has been taking.
Without Janet and Bob, the Beach House has lost only one game all year.
Any comparison to Ethel and Julias Rosenberg is merely speculative.
The New Irish Circle would like to welcome Debbie back after her
maternity leave and she is better than ever. They won either two or three (see
standings). Apparently the Bay
House Babes left booby traps……on their side of the court.
Steve G. as always is a pain in the a__
_. If the rest of the team
shows up at the parties it would certainly add to team morale.
The Sands Point Physical Therapy lost to Blarney Castle four games to
one. Youth over experience.
Sands Point is waiting for your pulled muscles. Jimmy and Peggy are off
to Hawaii. What does Hawaii have
that Riis Park doesn’t? Welcome back
Jake. He is now 18.
EZ Knights had a great turnout on the
Beach but most went to an AARP meeting instead of going to the Kerry Hills for
some great food and cocktails. Jack
Weber is not only getting old but now he is acting old.
The Senior Living Sharks put the bite on last year’s division champs,
Connolly’s, due to the fact that Jack (the sissy Mead) quit the team. Steve
showed up late due to T-Ball finals.
Priorities. Dennis Clark, be
on notice-you live on Beach 127th you play for Connolly’s.
Be advised the Cookie Runs are Thursday at Beach 94th at 7 PM.
26 weeks to go, did you get your invitation to the limited wedding?
Jimmy, the youngest Shark, reminded the team of how they used to play with
some good overall play. The team
came back for some soft food and hard liquor.
Thanks to Carmel for the great and ample food at the Kerry Hills.
It is always abundant, home cooked and terrific.
It’s like going to grandmas for dinner. When Cubby walked in at 1200
o’clock he was astounded that there was still food.
The Kerry Hills not only put out a terrific spread but had food all night
long. The Kerry Hills have raised
the bar very high for the other sponsors. The Kerry Hills won two out of five
games against the over confident Wave/Kings Pharmacy.
Katherine met a new man tonight but unfortunately he is not of age for
the bar. Rob you are warned…..no
gym before the game. Mike Stone was
not there due to an important date.
How old is she? Is it true she TiVo’s the cartoon network?
To the rest of the Kerry Hills
team……..learn to keep the ball in bounds.
See ya----F.
It’s All Good when you’re on center stage!
After being in the boon docks and feeding the plovers---we are back.
Was it Baby Love that inspired cement shoes and TBG to pick up their
game? Paris had a furlough---15
points for her. Will she be back
next week? And, as far as Baby Love
goes, where does that put Kim, Mary and Marybeth?
Seal how was medal day? The
Postmaster General is on the lookout for TBG, no deliveries due to four games of
awesome MVP play. Was that Mr. Happy checking out your game?
Oh where oh where was the co captain and ‘Blondie? Luckily Last Call’s
captain came out to help the team win four games.
Greg Costanstanza needs to keep his flapping towel in the right spot.
Just ask your girlfriends and we will help you out.
If J and J don’t show up next
week the back hoe and team will show up at your house for a luxurious
swim----Beware! Gabriella where are you?
Rumor has it she was out scouting for Sunday’s trash to treasure.
Costanza states Obyrne should inquire in the gym if they have
coordination classes……please enroll.
Spotlight: Every once in awhile
we like to focus on people involved with the league that bring something
different or interesting to the table.
This week we interviewed
Tony Redunzo, sponsor, owner and chef de cuisine of Redunzo’s round pizza.
Hey Tony, how come you only have round pizza and no squares?
That’s the way I bought the place.
It only came with round and rectangular pans so we couldn’t make square.
Plus it was too confusing.
Tony is originally from Red Hook, Brooklyn and had some reputation with
the ladies. “That’s right I was known as the Make Out Man of Red Hook.”
In fact I was never on a date I didn’t make out on.”
Wow! That’s hard to believe.
“We’ll one girl didn’t want to make out but I loosened her up with a couple of
fancy cocktails. “ Yeah, they were
one ounce bottles of Southern Comfort.”
How did you come to live in
Rockaway? “We’ll you see I
knocked up-- err-
impregnated Ten Ton Tony Jaboni’s daughter
and he wanted me to marry her” “ I
tried, but the judge said no because I already had a wife and kids. “
“They got some kind of crazy rule about not being able to get married if
you are already married.” “So I had
to hide from him. I changed my name
from Anthony Redunzo to Tony Redunzo and “disappeared” to Rockaway.”
Aren’t you worried he will read this in the Wave?
“No, the Wave is a Queens’s paper and he lives in Brooklyn.”
I don’t know Tony Redunzo well, but I would guess he is not a threat to
win final jeopardy.
Please bring the nets up after the games as soon as possible. We can’t leave
until the last net and shovel is put away.
