Power Rankings
1. Speed Bumps No one can slow this team down! The Speed Bumps ran over
the Beasts 5-1 in a grueling rival match! Can they continue to reign at the
top or will they be pulled over by the Licensed professionals?
2. TITS This team wiped those Mudders clean last week and added another
W to their record! Will they continue their streak or get Kicked by James
Pitch?
3. Beastmode The Beasts were trapped last week by
their rivals, Speed Bumps! Will they be to Scared this
week or will they regain their spot at the top of the
food chain?
4. Scared Kickless This team proved to be anything but
Kickless last week, outscoring Kick James, Pitch! Will
they be able to Scare the Beast this week and continue
to move up the ranks?
5. Ligers The Ligers are crawling their way up the rankings this week after another victory over Licensed to
Kick! Will the Mudders dirty their record or will
they soon be kings and queens of the jungle?
6. The Better AlcoBALLics The Better AlcoBALLics earned their name last
week by closing out the AlcoBALLics 6 to 1! They face another tough
match up against the Sneaky Snakes, can they take home another victory
this week?
7. Sneaky Snakes The Snakes captured All About That Base last week in a 6-2
victory! Will they sneak past The Better AlcoBALLics this week or will they
slither home without a win this week?

8. Bases May Not Be Loaded But We Are This team showed those Pitches in
Low Places that they know how to load the bases and get loaded at the same
time, winning 4-2. Can they keep up their skills in the Dual of the Drinkers
game this week against the AlcoBALLics?
9. Licensed to Kick These Kickers fell to the Ligers last week in an exciting
game but more importantly rocked the Super Hero theme like champs! Are
they ready and Licensed to Kick against the Speed Bumps
this week?
10. AlcoBALLics Suffering from a tough loss last week
against their rival team, these AlcoBALLics are ready for
another week of kickball action! This week they take on
Based May Not Be Loaded But We Are in the Dual of the
Drinkers game this week! Who will prove to have the
stronger livers and the better kicks??
11.Im Kick James, Pitch These Pitches might have
been a little Scared of their competition last week, losing
5-3. Will they be able to cop a feel this week against
TITS and another W to their season??
12. Ive Got Pitches in Low Places These Pitches lost a
tough game last week to Bases Loaded! Will they be able to overcome their opponents in the Orange Rival game this week?
13.All About That Base AATB got bit by the Snakes last week in a 6-2 loss.
With the Orange Rival game this week, will they prove to be the best orange
team this season?
14. Mudder Fockers These Mudders were wiped clean after their game against
TITS last week! This week is their Rival game against the Ligers will they
dominate and show them they are the better half?

VETERAN of the week

Derek Fenech
Speed Bumps
Q: How long have you been playing WAKA?
A: Since 2006

Q: If you could create a dream team of kickballers, using

celebrities, who would be on your team?
A: Celebrities suck at Kickball. Ill take Mike Wolff, Jake Nohe, Eric
Daddy Flecthner, Mike Angry Genson, Kenny The Future
Vierling, Sabrina Wolff, The Shersty Sisters, Danielle Aluisi, Lauren
Saunders, Meghan Forbush, Molly Anderson, Tyler Smith, Al
Elchert, Franky Moulton, Jason Rivera, Matt Sherman, and Cody
Lets Greez Helcher any day. I even through in some loser
Beastmode Players. However, I may consider Will Ferrell and John C
Reilly because those guys are hilarious.
Q: What theme week would you like to see happen?
A: America, or something for a good cause, like breast care awareness.
All other themes already have a day set aside for them. It is called
Halloween.
Q: If youre not busy being awesome at kickball, what are you up to?
A: I am the President of a Large National Home Builder/Developer.
When I am not working, I enjoy flying (I have a Private Pilots
License), maintaining my 600 gallon aquarium, exercising,
spending time with my wife and dog, and using my excellent
Photoshop skills to make my friends feel self-conscious about
themselves.
Q: At OSheas, what is your go-to drink of choice and
favorite item on the menu?
A: Any IPA Beer and a Grilled Chicken Sandwich with Fries.
Q: What advice would you give someone who is a rookie
this kickball season?
A: I would say its a tossup. Either playing in my first competitive
kickball tournament with a great group of friends that I met in this
very West Palm League. Or having the honor of being asked to
marry four of my friends who I also met through this very West
Palm League. The Wolffs wouldnt be the Wolffs, and the Angrys
would be the Angrys without me. The reality is we are more family
than friends.

Mark Lesco
All About That Base
Q: If you could create a dream team of kickballers, using
celebrities, who would be on your team?
A: Dan Marino and Dwayne Wade, mainly because I really
want to meet them and I guess Kate Upton, I mean have
you seen her in those Game of War commercials? Her
leadership skills seem impeccable.
Q: What theme week would you like to see happen?
A: I know most themes are for during the games, but I think
a great theme for post-game at OSheas would be a lip
sync battle night. Each team sends a rep and best
performance gets some free drinks.
Q: If youre not busy being awesome at kickball, what are you up to?
A: Being awesome at drinking beers and watching sports and
getting ready to become a Daddy in August
Q: At OSheas, what is your go-to drink of choice and
favorite item on the menu?
A: I am a simple man, give me Bud Light and chicken wings
and I am happy as hell.
Q: What is your favorite kickball memory so far?
A: I am a team guy so our first win was a great memory,
everyone contributed in some way, it was great.
Q: What advice can you give to a kickballer to help them survive Friday at work?
A: - Call in sick!
Q: What advice would you give someone who is a rookie
this kickball season?
A: Do not be afraid to bunt. It may not be as sexy as going for
the long ball, like the chicks dig, but it wins games.
Q: What would you like veteran kickballers to know?
A: Youre old, get out of my way.
What are you looking forward to this season?
A: Getting on base, because we are All About That Base,
making some more great catches and trying to win
another game or two.
