Week 5 Recap

Week 5 Recap

Ladies and gentlemen, Lounge absolutely Balled this weekend. If you have any nails that are not bitten after this exciting week of action, I applaud you. Without further ado, let’s get right into it.

It was a magical Monday in København as the hometown koks rang in Leif Erickson day with a bulging, veiny W. Kok enthusiasts were treated to the team’s 3rd win of the season in yet another comeback win. The koks have bad a habit of cumming from behind as they hoist their third straight W to move above .500 for the first time in franchise history. Keep an eye out for these dangerous, streaking koks!

It was a record setting weekend in Clifton, but not for the reasons you’d might think. The Crackpipes showed up to the game high off their asses and put up a meager 21 points. This is an all time low for Lounge Ballin’ and handed a win to the struggling Sween’s Weens.

In an absolute nail biter, the Chungus Champions edged out the Fairport Phishermen on Monday night in Fairport. Chungus players were seen dancing on the Fairport logo, gloating the narrow victory and end of Fairport’s unbeaten streak. The Chungus Champions and their swagger are taking the league by storm, and while many may be upset by their antics, their talent is undeniable!

Matthew 5:5 “Blessed are the Meek, for they shall inherit the Earth.”

Protobot 6:9 “Blessed is team MeekDADDY, for they shall inherit Lounge Ballin’”

Team MeekDADDY stands alone as the final unbeaten team in Lounge Ballin’. At 5-0 Team MeekDADDY has done it all by week five. Shatter records, play with style, talk trash. You name it, Team MeekDADDY’s done it. When asked his thoughts on Team MeekDADDY’s historic start to the season, coach Meek McDaddie raised his eyebrows and smirked.

“Mission accomplished,” McDaddie said sarcastically. “We had the whole time, the whole offseason, that was our goal — was output after five games.”

Where will Team MeekDADDY go after this? The sky’s the limit.
