WARNING VIDEO CONTAINS CRUDE LANGUAGE!

Movember 2010 Winner is.........

After tallying the many votes, a winner of Movember 2010 has finally been crowned.  This years finest stache goes to Junior with his rendition of "Merry Movember".  Congrats to all that participated, Burt Reynolds would be very proud.

"Merry Movember"
Incorporating the Dodgers jersey, bat, chest hair, and a child's hair cut made Matt this years MOvember champion.

Notable Mentions

"Brokeback Dodger"
ET was a close second, as there were 2 things that Tom Sellick rocked as Magnum PI, the stache, and a Lions mane of chest hair.

"The Perve"
Shaye surprised everyone when he went with style over volume this year.



"The Soldier"
Rhino quit Champion, and has enlisted in the army.



 

The Trim Down

With any mustache contest with the Dodgers it is inevitable, that the man that can grow hair on his face as if it were a chia pet, Shaye Anderson will likely be a top contender.  For this "Movember" Shay thought it would be fitting to give everyone a week head start, and gave us a little glimpse at the "MO" one might be able to obtain with a little dedication, and the appropriate hedge clippers needed to whack through such a formidable beard. 

                  Yep Still Hairy!             

   "The Mean Biker"

 Somebody untie that dog from under his lip!

 Week head start given let the race begin!

Movember 2010

Its time for the Kernel to make another appearance!That's right its the month of "Movember", time for everyone to grow the "stache" to raise awareness for Prostate cancer.  Visit the Movember website and make a donation if possible. 1 of 6 men will be diagnosed with Prosate cancer.

Sponsornight postponed

do to not enough people being able to make it, the sponsorship night has been postponed.  which is very very weak€......needless to say lincoln is't very impressed.

2010 Sponsor Appreciation Night

The 2010 Sponsor Appreciation and wind up party will held at the Lloydminster Original Joe's on Oct 22, 2010.  It will also coincide with the towns annual Oktoberfest celebration, held at the Civic Center, where hopefully the Dodgers will be crowned champs in the Boat Race contest. 

The Dodgers will also be using this evening to discuss the steps required to return to ISC competitions next season.

Other events of the night will be the annual "what time of the night will Shaye fall asleep standing up contest"

Post whether or not you will be in attendance in the comment section, if you can't make it then you'll be cut from the team for next year............or you better have a pretty good excuse, like explosive diarea, or you were in a horrible farm accident like getting your balls caught in the gears of a combine.  Seriously the least you f$%^ers can do is come to Lloyd for one night drink a pile of beers and show your gratitude to the people that pay so much for us to play for pretty much free every year.

League Fails to Complete 2010 Season

Due to a cornucopia of reasons......what cornucopia is a word look it up. Anyway the 2010 CCFL season will be unable to finish due to lack of umpires, lack of teams available, rain outs, plagues, and whatever other reasons you could think of that "BF'd" this season. So basically epic fails all around, almost as bad as this kids driving test.



Though the season is over keep checking in, as the blog will still be getting updated with Dodger news, and what ever hairbrained ideas I have to share.

Jester and Bessie

An German farmer named Jester had an accident with a big truck ,and was sueing the trucking company,

In court their hot-shot solicitor was questioning Jester.

Solicitor : 'Now didn't you say to the Police at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine?' .

Jester: 'Well, I'll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite cow, Bessie, into the...'

Solicitor:'I didn't ask for any details','Just answer the question.. Did you not tell the police officer, at the scene of the accident, 'I'm fine!'?'

Jester: 'Well, I had just got Bessie into the sidecar and I was driving down the road.....'

The solicitor interrupted again and said, 'Your Honour, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the police on the scene that he was fine. Now several weeks after the accident, he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question.'

By this time, the Judge was fairly interested in Jester's answer and said to the solicitor: 'I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favourite cow, Bessie'.

Jester thanked the Judge and proceeded: 'Well as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favourite cow, into the sidecar and was driving her down the road when this huge truck and trailer came through a stop sign and hit me right in the side. I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurt very bad like, and didn't want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible pain just by her groans. Shortly after the accident, a policeman on a motorbike turned up. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning so he went over to her. After he looked at her, and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes. Then the policeman came charging across the road, gun still in hand, looked me up and down, and said, 'How badly are you hurt?'

'Now what the F**k would you have said'?

Playoff Tourney....trying it again.

The Capital City Fastball League will try this upcoming weekend to wrap up the 2010 season with a double knockout style tournament. The tourney was unable to go last weekend due to the lack of umpires.  Dodgers games will be Thursday the 26th at 7:30pm at Colchester, then 12:00pm Saturday the 26th.  The outcome of those 2 games will determine when or if the Dodgers will play again on Saturday, and Sunday, but in all likely hood the Dodgers will playing again Saturday, and later into the day at the 5pm final, because they are pretty sweet.

Where Mat King Learned to Dance

You wouldn't think it to look at the flat footed clumy looking base runner, but Mat King is a regular John Travolta on the dance floor.  For those that weren't there to witness the "dance off" last summer in Grande Prarie, which he clearly won, it was epic!  Though it turns out he didn't learn his craft in seedy small town Alberta bars, he actually went to The Douche School of Dance.

Where in the World Is John Spigott?

Word has it that explorer John Spigott, has finally returned to Canada, after his recent adventures to the far east. Rumours have it he has struck a deal with the emperors of Asia to trade Saskatchewan Wheat for fine Asian Spices, and he now speaks 3 new dialects, one of them being Asian. His ragged beard has been fashioned into a skinny fu-man-chu, and he now holds a black belt in the martial art of being awesome.

Just in time for League playoffs, welcome home Spigs.

Last Regular Season Game of 2010

Short Fences, elevated mound, yep Castledown's little league diamond will the field of play for the Dodgers last regular season game of the 2010 season vs the Tomahawks at 7pm..............bring your bug spray!

Recap:
To insure the game would even be played, due to the Tomahawks being short, the Dodgers traded away by far thier best looking player for absolutely nothing in return, and it looked like it would hurt them as the fleet footed second basemen turned an unassisted double play to remove the first two Dodger batters of the first inning.................the Dodgers then rallied with 2 outs and scored 6 runs. The bats didn't stop there as they continued to pound the ball off the awestrucked Tomahawk pitcher, after 4 innings of play the Dodgers lead 15-0, and the game was called due to lightning. Dingers were hit by Jess, Matte, Reinhart, Atkinson, and probaly a few others as it was hard to keep track. Then the clouds let loose with a downpour of rain and hail, and cut short the post game celbrations.

League Playoffs will be a tournemant held some weekend in August, who knows where or when , but they won't be in Lloyd as that is out of the city......maybe Gibbons.

August 3rd, August 4th League Games

A busy week for the Dodgers saw them playing a doubleheader on August 3rd against Blue Devils, then a game fighting the sunlight against the up and coming Roughnecks. Dodgers won both games, not quite sure what the scores were, and frankly who cares, the dodgers won them both. Atkinson pitched all but the last inning of the second game, when Big Red Taylor came in for some zip zip, that made the Roughnecks decide they didn't even want to take the field the last inning. On a side note, a $5 wager was made between King&Atkinson, that King would hit a home run his first at bat, after not doing so he went double or nothing, until he was $20 in the hole, the wager was cleared up when King hit a dinger his last bat of the game........just another Castledowns fly ball home run.

August 4th the Dodgers played the new look Edmonton Reds. With the Shane Mckort pitching for the Reds, and the crafty Atkinson pitching for the Dodgers the stage was set for a good game between the two long time rivals . Mckort's stuff was really moving early on and he was able to hold the Dodgers off for a few innings, then the bats woke up, and the Dodgers were able to score 10 runs from the 3rd inning to the 5th. Atkinson held the Reds off the entire game, and it was all up to the new pitching sensation Mat King to hold the Reds off in the bottom of the 5th, to ensure the mercy rule would be applied. King went 3 up 3 down, and then stayed until all the beer was drank out of the cooler, making his trip to Wetaskwin a memorable one.

Thursday July 29, 2010 Doubleheader

Diamond: Castle Downs #2V 116 St. & 157 Ave H2,
6:30pm
2, 5 innning games against the Twighlighters.

Post games beers will be drank at the north side OJ's.

Post availability in comments.

Recap: 11-11, One game was played for the points for the 2 make up league games.

Mat King got what he has wanted all year. To get the start on the mound in the prestigious CCFL game. After some getting used to some suspect field conditions, and finding the strike zone, he didn't disappoint. Pitching 5 outstanding innings, his refusal to come off the mound may have been his only downfall. As with bases loaded a grand slam saw the pitchers 11-3 lead squander away. And in the last inning with only one out needed for his first career in in the CCFL, he gave up another home run that tied up the the game at 11. Dodgers offense didn't disappoint, as monstrous home runs were hit out by King, Taylor, Atkinson, Anderson, and Atkinson again.

Tuesday July 27 Doubleheader

Allright time to start using this blog for something.

Tuesday July 27, 2010 7:00
Double header at Colchester diamond #1
VS
Twighlighters

Reds

Post your availability in the comments if you can or can't make it. Then we will all have a commone place to look to see if we have enough guys from now on, and we won't have to go through all the emails. I'll post something like this for the remaining league games this year.

Guess it was only a single against the Reds. Dodgers won by a score of 9-3, riding the arm of Big Red for seven innings, and offensive bombs delivered by Jester, and making his debut at 2nd base Don "Deisel" Atkinson.
