The Providence Kickball League season has hit the halfway mark. Head over to the Stan Lutchka Field behind the Cranston Street Armory and watch flamboyant but deadly serious kickballers square off. There are rules and everything. This is one of the few sports in which men and women compete as equals, like dressage. 10am — […]
One way to spend time outside today (and you really should get out of the house) is to check out Week 9 of the Providence Kickball League. Full schedule here. Now, turn off the computer and go outside. 2pm — Scurvy Dogs vs. Gutterballs 3pm — PROM vs. Ladies & Gents 4pm — Mississippi Shakedown

(My intern informs me the proper term is ‘travesty’. Thank you Ivan.) The schedule at this writing is: 2PM
And I really mean smoking. Our kickball team may need to get some nicotine patches from the team doctor so that in the future they can play with both hands. At any rate, the PDD Burnsiders got roughed up by some totally gay pirates earlier today — we need not rearrange the trophy cabinet for
