WYLIE - Want to throw something at your co-workers? Wylie city employees do - but only on Wednesdays. Dozens of city workers play dodgeball at lunchtime on Wednesdays instead of hitting the fast-food window or the elliptical.
"It's really funny to see a different side of everyone," said Steven Harben, who works for the Wylie Parks and Recreation Department.

The idea was the brainchild of fellow parks employee Archie Whitt, who joked that it's a better way to get competitive with co-workers than a pickup basketball game.

"If there's someone in another department that you'd just like to hit with a ball, this is the time to do it," he said.

It's also an excuse to stay active.

"It's definitely a workout," Harben said. "Last week, I was sore for a couple of days afterward."

For months now I've been trying to think of a way to light a little fire under the Sales guys, not to mention wipe that stick eye from Beverly from Accounting's face. Look, Bev, I know you're crunchin' those numbers and can see the cash we're bringing in, but you're still not getting a raise. Maybe a nice Voit imprint will make those cheeks a little more rosy next time the boss heads your way.

By the Way - Not a good look when you're the athlete in the Parks and Rec Department, and you're tellin' us that you're sore for days after amateur dodgeball hour. Catching a line drive from that checkered-shorts, ten-year-old noodle-arm and dancing outta the way of those weak lobs by Wayne from Maintenance isn't the strongest look if you're tryin' to get that hot Marketing intern to take notice.

By the Way #2 - What's the deal with the bro just hangin' out in the stands with the ladies at the :43 mark? These days you can't afford to get caught in the knitting nest checkin' out guys' asses and gushing about those cute things your boring kids did. If you're a dude and you're in that gym at lunch on Wednesdays, you've gotta be on the floor givin' it all you've got, sweatbands and all. The sidelines are for chicks and cripples. Show a little pride, or else do yourself a favor and just go to Sonic for lunch.

By the Way #3 - Sneaky funniest part of the video is the fat guy getting nailed in the face at the :09 mark. Few moments are better than firing away on the slow-footed stocky guy who got a little aggressive and threw a little too close to the line. There's no way he's gonna be able to dodge after that throw, just takes too much out of him. The second that walrus exposes himself, everybody on the other side knows it's cruise missile time. If you play pussy rules and have to sit out for the head-shot, it's still worth it every time.
