2017 Tournament Summary
For the first time in the history of Hume'anity, a HUME has landed wiffle gold.
And if that isn't enough to call one's stock into question, he netted this honor with the likes of none other than MONDRY!!!
You're probably asking yourself: "A HU-MON catastrophe of that magnitude could not possibly catch the King of Beers, 17-Dollars,
and Wiffle Gold, right???!!!!" And you would be correct, sort-of: It was HUME-MONDRY 2.0 - the next generation of HuMon
Wiffler that was able to shed the shame of their forefathers, hook Wiffle Glory, and perch the Prize of 2017. And they did
so in Wicked Awesome fashion.
Kid Row Hume and Tony Big Tuna Mondry recruited the likes of Benny Walleyes Wallinga and Johnny One-Fish Two-Fish Red-Fish
Blue-Fish Dr. Suess to usher in an offensive haul the likes of which have not been seen since the 2014 Grizzly's mauled their
way through the tournament. Not even the resurgent SICKNESS could stop the incessant poaching of the bases by the Wicked
Wifflers as they served up rainbows at the plate. With the MeisterGators missing in action to muddy the waters, look for this
nautical nonsense of a team to defend their spot as Wiffle Champions in 2018.
After being court-martialed by the Wiffleball A-League of Chassell (WALC) for a
crime they didn't commit, THE K-TEAM, a group of wifflers of fortune, found themselves on the run before landing in the Humestead.
After a cruel introduction to Hume-Donovan Wiffle Ball, these krafty wiffle kon-men fought their way to a play-off berth
and managed to give the eventual champion WICKED WIFFLERS a run for their money (all 17 dollars worth). It's hard to say
whether the K's will make their way back to HD in 2018, but if they manage to slip the wifLaw, then HD will welcome them back
with open bats and closed-fisted nucklers.
The storied PRIDE OF THE WHIFFLERS found themselves staring down disgrace and humiliation for the second time in HD history,
but were spared the buzz of shame by the KILLER B'S. The long absences of the King B has been taking a toll on the hive,
but that didn't stop A. Brown and Samantha B from stinging perhaps the greatest wiffle ball player who has ever lived with
the long ball.
The best wiffle ball team on Earth was again ousted early in the post season. Total BULL SCHMIDT. But they were able to
defeat the HOMEBOYS, who still can't quite shake their earlier HD years HU-MON existence.
The WIFFLE WONDERS struggled in year two, but
did just enough to avoid wiffle shame. A potential return of the ON-CALLS should keep them safe from terrible in year 3.
