  • BOS – Ultimate Frisbee

    Timberwolf was jam packed today! According to the geese doing flyovers, here’s what went down.

    Made our way down to the field and set up cones, but with 22 HIMs we needed a bigger boat, so we widened just a tad. Patriot Games were eager to get going, but the Yips wanted to warm-up. YHC split teams up evenly 12-10. It may only be Flyboys second post in 2026, but he doesn’t miss a beat and we settled at 11-11.

    Both teams came out executing their playbook to perfection, moving the disc up and down the field with a few aggressive swings at that plate along the way. The first 20 minutes gave us a close 3-2 match.

    The YIPS started to get a groove, tightened up their defense, and took DTH’s advice to heart and stuck to the ground and pound short game. Hei Hei, Festivus, Cookie, OC, DK, Wildcat, Pad Thai, Trespass worked the middle like poetry in motion. Da Bear, Yoda and YHC worked the sidelines and played Legion of Boom-era defense.

    Patriot Games played better than the score would infer. Between the 20s they were moving, but in the red zone they couldn’t quite get a rhythm. Rudy pulled an Antonio Brown – had a great catch at NoToll and let it go to his head. He got paid and focused more on songs written about him and his bonus, forgetting what got him here in the first place. Snip has a 99% accuracy rating, but 1% of the time he throws it to Powhatan. Machismo dominated the middle of the field, and Fandango got more cardio in today than he has this year.

    YIPS victorious 8-3.

    Beatdown currency has been handed out, be sure to use it to your advantage! a $20 firecracker is making it’s way north…

    Good to see some NOS brothers join us today! All are welcome to come out next week for some Ultimate Football – same rules, different object.

    Good luck Trespass in your interview today.

  • Dodgeball

    A beautiful 70 degree morning to kick things off with Boys of Summer, The Yips versus Patriot Games. Today did not disappoint!

    15 HIMs came out to dodge, duck, and dive their way through madness. The odd numbers required a gentleman’s duel to see who got the advantage. Warby > Rudy

    Game 1 – Classic Dodgeball rules. Get out once, 5 burpees, twice – run the field and back, three times – have a seat. Winner: Yips

    Game 2 – King of the Castle. Each team nominates one player to be the king, and like chess, when your king goes down, you lose. Festivus vs McGruff. Winner: Yips

    Game 3 – Kick the Can. 3 cans stood on each side, first to knock them all down wins. Winner: Patriot Games

    Game 4 – Hefty Lefty’s. Classic rules, but you can only use your non-dominant hand to throw. This was a very entertaining battle, most HIMs have a wet noodle for a left arm. We shrunk the battlefield to speed up the game. Winner: Patriot Games

    Game 5 – Kick the Can 2.0, Patriot Games game of choice (since it doesn’t require them to knock out the Yips to win). closely contested match, had to go to double overtime that involved several rule changes that led to chaos. Eventually though, a dart from either Futon or Pad Thai ended the match, right at 6:15…just as YHC planned.

    ***Editorial note: YHC could see that Rudy was taking the gentleman’s duel loss pretty hard with his team going down 1-0, so YHC gave them the 1-man advantage to lift his spirits. Rudy, find a way to pay it forward today, buddy.

    Patriot Games are up 1-0 on the Yips after week 1. The Yips are proud to welcome Meatball and Pad Thai to our team, and Patriot Games are pumped to have McGruff! Big Rig’s little rig was not harmed today

    Next week: Ultimate Frisbee

    Prayers for Meatball as he looks for a job, Big Rig and his mom’s scans, continued support for Christian.

  • BOS Combine

    8 STUDS came out this morning to test their mettle against the best of the best, and they did not disappoint! Coach Crabgrass and Coach Matlock had their whistles ready, let’s mosey!

    Dodgeball
    First test – a duel style turn and fire. 3 attempts each, turn and fire the dodgeball and knock out a solo cup from the fence
    Second test – dodging. 1 v 2, the 2 get 9 balls to throw at the 1, who must dodge them all. Fandango and Da Bear were dancing bears today

    Basketball
    Suicides for time
    Free throw > layup > full court layup > 3 pointer to show off the skillz
    half court shot for points

    Running
    3 cone drill
    40 yard dash – Da Bear is not a guy I want running after me!

    Football
    FG attempts. ONLY Boberry made it, heck he may have been the only one who got it high enough off the ground.

    Frisbee
    30 yard throws into the net (and in the wind) showed we have some work to do if we want to beat NOS
    Pick a partner and throw a GO route
    disc golf, see how many shots it take to get to the basket

    Finish with some dodgeball to warm up for next week. Big Rig got jacked in the Little Rig twice. Hope he’s feeling OK

  • Don’t Skip Leg Day

    A motley crew of 8 came out to stretch for 45 minutes and watch a pretty pink sunrise. To the chagrin of the New Market clowns, YHC had other plans. Let’s get some leg work in!

    Longer-than-normal into a warmup with an obscene amount of SSH and intermittent light stretching.

    The THANG – Build A Beast

    Too bad Rudy slept in today, he would’ve learned how to do a proper BAB!
    6/6/6/6/6/6 Firecrackers > Monkey Humpers > Flyboys > MTN Climbers > Lunges > SSH

    Circle up at the flag for MORE SSH, Merkins, and abs to take us out. Great work today fellas!

    ANNOUNCEMENTS – Boys Of Summer kicks off tomorrow at TWOLF. Come out for a combine-style workout. NTB going away 5/16, Convergence 5/25 @ Dogpile

  • May the Fourth

    https://claude.ai/public/artifacts/de13e548-9725-4b1c-98f1-f54b538a178c

    A long time ago in a parking lot not so far away…

    The PAX assembled in the darkness. No one new the suffering that awaited.

    The dark side of fitness called to them. But the force – and the Q – was strong.

    Armed with nothing but their bodies, and a serious lack of sleep, they would face the Empire, and each other.

    May the fourth be with you. Always

    Link above for the beatdown. Welcome to Patrick “Autotune” Newbie, the latest FNG to make his way out to Alamo. He is neighbors with Futon and they’re daughters go to school together. He is a music producer and a lot of his stuff can be heard on the radio.

    Prayers for Christian & Rudy

  • Getting Hot Out There

    16 HIMs came out for a burner this morning! According to the Winnebago that costs as much as a boat, here’s what happened…

    Mosey through the bunker and back and warmup at the tennis courts.

    Revolving 4 Corners:

    Corner 1: 10x SSH, shuttle run, 10x Merkin, shuttle run, 10x WWII

    Corner 2: Sandbag lunge up hill, run back

    Corner 3: 10x – skullcrusher, overhead press, curl, squat, KB swing, plank pull through

    Corner 4: 15x manmakers

    Finished up with circle of fire dealers choice

    Boys of summer coming back to Timberwolf this May! Memorial Day convergence, save the date.

    Prayers for Dumar’s friend who passed, Globetrotters last treatment, and Excel’s wins

  • Nancy’s Still Got It

    12 men witnessed a feat so legendary, every last one of us will be recounting it at the dinner table tonight.

    After a short mosey to the Modern Homes, we set up for a triple check: HRM / Squats / runner to the end of the cul-de-sac. What happened next can only be believed if you were there.

    The running group: Nancy, Futon, and Wildcat. As YHC was grinding through his HRM, I heard Nancy shouting from the far end of the street. Why? No clue at first — but it turns out he was absolutely SMOKING Wildcat and Futon. When they returned to the PAX, Wildcat was sucking wind, Futon was curled up in the fetal position, and Nancy stood with both hands raised in victory.

    Honestly, who even remembers what we did the rest of the workout after that majestic display?

  • Two to Tango

    SOS is well rested this Thursday as 2 of the most mightiest, best looking studs this group has to offer, rolled out of bed and got after it this morning.

    Mosey down to track and around one lap as a warmup, followed by a variety of stretches and warmup exercises.

    Thing 1 – Something Big Rig/Bobbery/David Goggins do

    Around the track for two laps, then 25 merkins. Two more laps at a faster pace, 25 merkins. Two more laps at a faster pace, 25 merkins. Two more laps at a faster pace, 25 merkins.

    Thing 2 – Field Work

    Start at FG post. Perform exercise then run to other end and back. 100x Squats / 80s APDs / 60x LBCs / 40x Heels to Heaven

  • Shedding Wood in other ways

    How much wood can a woodshed shed if a woodshed could shed wood? Only Gotham knows. According to a grunting deer, here’s what took place today:

    7 HIMs *although after our count I am not sure how many HIMs it was* came out for a classic Pyramids beatdown. Mosey around the dark field aimlessly and then circle up for some max effort stretching.

    Run down the road a bit for Pyramid 1: 10x squats/toe taps/calf raises/sumo squats/firecrackers

    Run up the hill for Pyramid 2: 8x merkins/CDD/walk backs/arm raises/HRM

    Run down the hill for Pyramid 3: 10x LBC/heels-to-heaven/hello dolly/APD/Freddy’s
