Dodgeball: An American Classic!
July 28, 2008 by Joe
Hey all…. I’ve been so busy lately. I love writing on this blog, but I just can’t justify staying up till 2 am to write posts! The Dark Knight has been absolutely kicking my butt recently. That movie’s set all sorts of records, and I’ve felt all of em :-P.
It hasn’t stopped me from having a bit of my own fun though! I went to a company picnic today, and recreated one of my all time favorite movies, Dodgeball! Well, actually not really recreated, but we’ve been playing it at the picnic since the movie came out. My team had a corny name, The Jokers Wild. Yeah, we’ve really gone for the Batman theme. Anyway, it was a ton of fun, and I really wish I had some pictures, cuz yours truly had one of the most epic dive/catches ever!
It would have been great… if I caught the ball. I love it when life goes in slow motion. I had it in my hands! I could hear the crowd going crazy as it fell into my hands, slipped out, got hit back up… into my hands again, then PLUNK. I faceplanted on the ground, sans ball in hand. :-( I think I hurt my knee in the process tooo.
Oh well, it was a lot of fun. I’m wondering, did Dodgeball pique your interest in the game again? I have to say I saw it 5 times in theatres… and loved it each time!
Anyway, just wanted to throw out a quick post to let you know that I’m alive. I’ll be getting back to regular posting tomorrow, with the movies this weekend! Later, folks!
