There's not a lot to add commentary-wise to this video, which is a German report on the Brooklyn kickball league. Hipsters, Germans, a Beavis and Butthead quote... it's well worth your 6 minutes and 43 seconds.
Fluent in German? Feel free to translate for us, we'd love to know what the Deutsche really think of the Never Scared team captain.

Basically just says that there's a kickball league in Brooklyn and that the sport is pretty stupid, so we're going there to find out who plays this stupid sport, and why.
Goes on to suggest that Kickball is an excellent Sunday Afternoon time-killing device and also great for beer drinking, wearing goofy outfits, and occasionally physical movement.
Sorry, I hate to be so incredibly negative, but what the hell is newsworthy about this?
Please note the top of Gothamist, where different categories besides "news" are listed. Gothamist is a weblog, or "blog," that covers a variety of topics, some of which do not fall under the category of hard news. If you desire strictly news, may I suggest cnn.com?
Alternatively, my mouse comes with an application that enables me to scroll down a website past items that don't interest me. Of course, then one does miss out on the feeling of smug self-assurance derived from commenting.
gas station attendant: 'i'm picking up on the sarcasm.'
richard: 'good, because i'm laying it on pretty thick.'
"If you desire strictly news, may I suggest cnn.com?"
But beware! Pretty much every mainstream news source has done a kickball story, so be careful about what you click on even on the cnn site.
sure, you hate it. you hate to be negative. you would prefer, say, to eat cherries jubilee. but you must. you must be negative. because it is righteous.
Touche. Thrown out, or tagged out, or struck out. Maybe all three.
Why do you even bother reading this blog? Seriously.
Hey i wanna play kickball, how do i join

There's a link to the kickball league's site at the beginning of the post.

No Mr Burn's quote?
"Ooh, the Germans are mad at me. I'm so scared! Oooh, the Germans!"
"We're more like Germany: ambitious and misunderstood."
Wow, talk about a bunch of people trying to be unique SO much that they all turn out being the same.
Who says it's about "being unique"? Seems more like the goal is hanging out with friends and having fun.
If you think that's unique... well, that's sad.
I wasn't talking about the kickball. I was talking about the general style of the participants.
i like these human interest stories.
anyone has anyone actually gotten laid by joining one of these kickball leagues?
confirmed. kickball is really drunken hook up league.
I tried to interpret but after 2 minutes, I couldn't take it anymore. I hope the Germans really embrace kickball. After all that's happened there in the last 80 years, it would be the latest and final ring of Hell.
There is more interessting videos from my german friend.
He reports only on Brooklyn and meets a lot of interessting characters. You can see his stuff on:
