The Off-Season in Animated GIFs

Guys, the kickball off-season is the worst. Don't worry: we know, and we're right there with you. Luckily, we only have a week to go before we bring all of the power, the glory, and the shame of WAKA back to the holy land that the city calls Gillis Park. To help tide you over, here's your loving GMOT CZAR's interpretation of the off-season, represented by her favorite thing on the internet, animated GIFs.

When you win your FIRST CHAMPIONSHIP EVAR



And then you experience your first Thursday without kickball



And then a few more weeks go by, and you still have no kickball in your life



You get an email telling you that registration is OPEN for next season



When you walk into work during the first off-season Friday looking well-rested, your coworkers are all



When you try to explain to people why you miss kickball so much without sounding like you have a drinking problem



And you get the 105th emailing reminding you to get your team signed up



But then it's okay when you realize that the new season starts NEXT WEEK



BUT SERIOUSLY: NEXT WEEK



When a coworker asks you why you're so excited about playing a child's game, at first you're like



AND THEN



When it's finally game day



And you realize after your first game that you're out of shape



When you spot some new talent the first week that you wouldn't mind getting to know at the bar



When someone suggests the first Fireball shot of the season



Your first post-kickball Friday morning



Turns into your first post-kickball Friday afternoon



And then you start thinking about the stupid things you did/said the night before



But really, you're just so excited that kickball is back



HAPPY NEW SEASON, BALLERS!
