Word on the Street

Written by: Kyle the Kickball Junkie

My name is Kyle and I'm a kickballaholic. Sad but true, I know. But it feels good to get that off my chest. However the worst part is that I can't play kickball. A horrible kickball accident caused me to blow out my knees. The accident left me unable to bend my legs. So I'm forced to live my life like some-sort of kickball Frankenstein. The only way now to quench my insatiable kickball thirst is to watch from the sidelines and report on what I see.

A couple of nights ago, I was down at the field reminiscing about my kickball glory days. While at the field I noticed a team practicing. Upon closer inspection I saw that it was the Balls & Dolls. Looks like they are amping up for the new season. It looked like they were getting down to basics and trying to put in some good solid practice time. However their practice was cut short. How many Balls & Dolls does it take to change a light bulb? Well more than 11, that's for sure. They were unable to figure out how to turn on the field lights and so they disappeared into the night.

Word on the street is another team also just finished an intensive training camp at the ol' Roger Brown Field. The army of Los Totally Awesomes is gearing up for some kickball battles. They have a stacked roster of 18 players. Last season this team was destroyed by the short bunting game of opposing teams. However with a new bunting rule in place hopefully their Achilles heel will be covered. Looks like this team will be coming out of training camp ready to bulldoze thought their opposition.

Word on the street is SCK will have its first all ladies team, well almost. Coached by their only male member, Rick Macias, the Violet Femmes are ready to show that anything you can do, they can do better. Im very excited to see how this team does.
