It's hard to believe the 2009 Maryland Beer Pong season is almost over. There's only a little more than three weeks left until the fifth annual 2009 Maryland State Beer Pong Championships™. And then after that, the World Series of Beer Pong in Las Vegas.
For me, the 2009 season has been disappointing for the most part. I've played in less than ten tournaments total and for the first time since 2007, I may end the year without a first-place finish. The talent level in Maryland has increased dramatically and there is a huge disparity between the elite teams...
After what seemed to be an exciting night of beer pong in week 7 of the Washington, DC Fall League, the seeds have finally been planted. Although going 8-3 on the night, Who's In Your Mouth? secured their 1st place seed going into the Washington, DC Fall League Championships. With the best record for the night, going 12-3, was Carlton Banks finishing up in 2nd place. The tables were turned as the Chugsters went 11-4 to move themselves up a spot to 3rd place overall. Behind them in the standings are Random White Guy who after going 6-9...

It's week 9 in the NFL. It's really hard to believe that the regular season is half way over already. We're also just about at the half way point of the Maryland Beer Pong Fantasy Football League.
This week, the featured match-up is going to be A-Train versus the Barn Animal. Lately, the two of us have been on the same team in most of our contests. Whether it be the greatest show on machined particle board, Team Woodshed, or on the kickball or Ausball fields, we've been teaming up much more than facing off....
With one week still to go, Team Woodshed (14-1) has clinched a first place finish in the Federal Hill Fall League and will be the #1 seed entering the League Championship Tournament. Also clinching their spot in the #2 slot is Urinal Cakes who finished 13-2. The Booze Hounds had their best performance of the season with a 12-3 showing. Fresh off a Las Vegas fling, Epsilon 7 enjoyed a 11-4 night which included a big win over Urinal Cakes. Check out the complete results on the league page. Next week is league t-shirt night!
The end is near for the Washington, DC Fall League as week 6 wraps up. The intensity was at an all time high tonight with very polar outcomes. Teams were either at the way top or all the way at the bottom this week with 8 double digit winners and 3 winless teams. At the top were Chugsters, We're Comin' To Getcha, and Who's On? all at 13-2. Behind them were Carlton Banks, Clownbaby, Epsilon East, and Random White Guy all at 12-3 on the night. And to round out the double digit winners was...
Out with October and in with November. The results of Players' Poll are in. There was not a lot of action in the top spots except for Wet Ballz regaining sole ownership of the #1 spot, displacing McAllister back down to #2. Who's In Your Mouth? took #3, followed by Just Give Up Now and We're Comin' To Getcha. Just like the team rankings, there was not a lot of movement in the singles poll. Foster led the way with five #1 votes making him the odds on favorite to win the upcoming Maryland State 1-on-1 Championships....
Welcome to the Monday edition of The Woodshed. Unfortunately, the A-Train was a bit under the weather towards the end of last week and writing blogs fell beneath holding down solid food on my priority list.
Today's topic will be potential rule changes for 2010. The rules have changed a lot since the inaugural 2005 season. Unlimited rollbacks giving way to the one-ball-back rule has been the biggest change. I can't even imagine playing unlimited rollbacks anymore.
Today I am going to unveil two potential rule changes for the upcoming year. Both of them came to light in a recent...
WARNING: Ravens-centric Monologue... Football is returning to Baltimore this Sunday after a break of almost two weeks. It will be nice to return to M&T Bank stadium for the return of Ravens football. I'll be able to end my two week media blackout, well, that is if the Ravens are able to win.
My topic today will be about hype and how hype can lead to expectations.
Last season the Ravens were not supposed to be good. They started 2-0 but they were sloppy wins over terrible teams, the Browns and the Bengals, both of which were at home. After...
When Bryan of What, What? In the Cup needed a partner for Week 5 of the Federal Hill Fall League, he dug deep into the waiver wire and pulled out Steph. It proved to be a good acquisition as the "professional beer pong player" hit 6 rebuttals in a win over Team Woodshed and led What, What? In the Cup to the night's best record at 13-2. The aforementioned Team Woodshed closed out the night with the week's second best record at 11-4, keeping them in first overall. Urinal Cakes retained second place with a 10-5 record but...
Week 5 marked the beginning of the final stretch for the Washington, DC Fall League. With only three weeks left to prove themselves before the league championships, teams fought their way through the tough competition. Some may argue that in beer pong, perfection is hard to come by, but Who's In Your Mouth? just makes it look so easy. After conquering another 15-0 week, the duo is now 30-0 over the last two weeks, sitting comfortably in 1st place. Behind them in the standings is Carlton Banks going 10-5 on the week. Back in 4th place is the Chugsters...
