USA TODAY ran a story a while back about adult dodgeballers, so this is a growing trend.  However, GSN is once again ever so slightly behind the curve.  A Ben Stiller movie ridiculing the concept will be out on June 18.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

The trailer for the Ben Stiller/Vince Vaughn movie "Dodgeball" can be found here. There's also an extended clip of the actors talking in character about the situations in the movie.

Next for GSN...Extreme Kickball! Mega Hide and Seek! Death Tag!

Random thoughts:

- Sadly enough, I'm sort of excited about seeing what they come up with for Dodgeball on GSN.

- I'm not too interested in the movie, however -- I liked Baseketball, I knew Baseketball, Basketball was a friend of mine... Dodgeball is not going to be another Baseketball.

- Speaking of adapting school games to game shows, does anyone think WinTuition would have been better if they had just licensed Milton-Bradley's Go To The Head of The Class?

- Forget Mega Hide and Seek.  I'm holding out for the $1,000,000 Celebrity Red Rover.

 I'm glad I'm not the only one to think of that. It certainly couldn't have hurt.

What, they couldn't get ESPN2 to show it at 3 a.m.?
Protecting idiots from themselves just leads to more idiots.
