FALL INTO AWESOME...FALL INTO KICKBALL

Not to speed up Mother Nature or bum anyone out...but the season of falling leaves and falling temperatures is busting at the seems, lurking around the corner. For most of us, the thought of ditching our Speedo's and Hawaiian Tropic (aka "Miracle in a Bottle") for thermals and leg warmers, makes us want to drown our sorrows in a vat of vodka. But before you "go go Gadget arms" for the Grey Goose bottle - there is an upside to the chilliness that is well worth welcoming in.

Yes, fall foliage can be stunning. Yes, sweaters and jeans worn together are pretty damn hipster. Yes, the sound of crinkled leaves crunching under your feet as you walk can be blissfully nostalgic. But more important than all of the crackling fires and warm Snuggies that the cool weather brings, the NACKA fall kickball season will be played...oh yes, it will be played.


Normal registration is open until 11:59pm on Thursday, August 13th. However, there is extended registration available until September 6th for all of you slackers out there. For those of you whose fingers go numb when the temps dip below 75°, the beginning of Fall still offers some pretty warm nights. And when the mercury really starts to plunge...what better way to heat up your bones than to run it out and drink it down at the stadium.

Sign-up, register, and play. Or just sit home on your couch wrapped up to your neck in your cheetah print Snuggie waiting to order the next best As Seen On TV product.

UP CLOSE & WAY TOO PERSONAL WITH DAN MCCOY

At NACKA - our players make our league, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse. No matter how you pack it in your pipe and smoke it...our players make our league dang awesome. To celebrate those who participate in our kickball kingdom, we are going to periodically profile a willing player to highlight on our website. We want to give our visitors what they want...and what they want is the chance to get to know our players on an intimate level that is touching on scary and crossing over to disturbing. FYI: By "highlight" we mean victimize...and by "willing" we mean kidnap and roofie.

Players Name: Dan McCoy
Team Name: Uncle George's Moe & Go
Fielding Position: First Base
Age: 27
Years Playing with NACKA: 3 years
Occupation: Paychex
NACKA Description in One Word: Turf Fields (Dan clearly doesn't know what "one word" means)
Self Description in One Word: Obnoxious (this description was actually yelled out by a team mate and we decided to go with it. Dan's official description of himself was "extremely outgoing" - again, with the two word cheating)


Q: If you were dying tomorrow & for your last meal you could pick a sandwich, made anyway, what would you pack between your buns?

A: "A sandwich? At McGreggors, they've got a build your own. It's like 30 different options. You pick your bread, your meat, your cheese, your toppings and the whole deal. It takes up half the menu. Go there."

**Note: We appreciated Dan schooling us on how to read a menu & order a sandwich in a restaurant - most of us have no idea how to tackle this daunting task. 2nd side note: Dan in no way answered this question.

Q: What's your favorite bar in Rochester?

A: "Favorite bar in Rochester? It used to be Wallstreet when Ben was there. But really it's just who's ever up for giving me free alcohol."

(Maybe the free alcohol is why Ben doesn't work at Wallstreet anymore??)

Q: Who do you root for in the cartoon world...Tom or Jerry?

A: "Like in the mouse and the cat? I guess, I guess, I guess, I guess I'm gonna go Jerry???"

(We we're busy trying to guess when Dan was going to stop sta, sta, sta, stuttering. Jesus it's either Tom or Jerry - freaking pick one.)

Q: If you could have one superpower, what would you choose and why?

A: "Batman cause he's the shit!"

Q: Let's try this again, if you could have one SUPERPOWER, what would it be and why?

A: "Batman!!"

**Note: After having not one or two, but 4 people try to explain the difference between a superpower and a super hero to Dan, he settled on invisibility. Ironically invisibility would have been the perfect power to use at that time.

Q: Can you say "Peter Piper Picked a Pack of Pickled Peppers" 3 times fast?

A: "I don't know about 3 but...peter pepper pikes...nope."

Q: It's karaoke time...you have one song to sing to blow the audience away? What are you telling the DJ to turn out?

A: "Hometown Hero Jukebox Hero!"

**Note: If Dan's singing abilities are anywhere close to his interviewing abilities...we recommend dropping acid and wearing earplugs.

Q: If you could have dinner with one person, other than Dave Hofstetter of course, who would it be with and why?

A: "Aaron effing Rodgers!"

Q: If you were Michael J. Fox and had access to a DeLorean time machine, what year would travel to?

A: "80's! 80's! 80's!"

**Note: After having not one or two, but three people explain the difference between a year and a decade, Dan chose 1985. In 1985 the movie "Desperately Seeking Susan" was released...coincidence? We think not.

Q: What beer do you choose at the kickball concession stand?

A: "If I'm buying...Bud Light."

(What about if former employee Ben at Wallstreet is buying?)

Q: Boxers or briefs?

A: "Boxers. What does that have to do with kickball and why does Dave Hofstetter want to know what kind of underwear I'm wearing?"

(Oh Dan, if only you knew why.)
