It's Showtime

We are slowly turning into Week 3, the King of Kickball prospects are starting to rise to the top. This week will give some teams an opportunity to shine and see if they are really worth all the early season hype.

One More Shot v.s. Los Totally Awesomes
LTA is pushing hard to show they are true contenders this season and I love them for it. Romo, Chucky, and the Team Leader are my guys, they are showing that LTA has what it takes to win. Unfortunately for them they just ran into the new and improved One More Shot. During Week 3, One More Shot really showed they are a good solid looking team. They had the #1 Confused Kixxx shaking in their boots last Wednesday. You just know after this very close game and after Kixxx's 2o min post-game ritual of berating the umpires, they had to change their shorts. One More Shot lost by a very respectable score of 5-3. That being said, if they were able to keep up with #1 Kixxx, they should be able to easily manhandle LTA.
Los Totally Awesomes - 3
One More Shot - 6
The Shockers v.s Kick N Da Balls
This match-up is actually starting to turn into a little rivalry. However with all the turn-over that KNDB has seen, the Shocks aren't playing the same kickbal kiddo crew. KNDB is no longer the kiddos of the league. They are just a regular team like all the rest. Now that doesn't mean they can't play, because they can. They just blend in a bit more now. Also they are sporting a surprising 2-0 record, but that is quickly going to change come Wednesday. As much as it pains me to say this, the Shockers are back! Plain and simple. They are embarrassing teams be scoring into the double digits and shutting teams out. Looks like it's time to dust off that target and put it right where it belongs...on the Shocker's back.
Shockers - 8
KNDB - 4
Warriors v.s Hash House Harriers
The Warriors are a team that has been flying under the radar. If you listen to Rick "The 3-Second Fuse" he swears up and down that this team will be strong contenders for the King of Kickball title. He says he knows this team from that dark, scary place I call Thursday nights! One a side note, there have actually been some SCKers claiming they may venture into that desolate waste land that is Thursday night. They promise to slay all that is unholy and evil for the sake and in the name of all that is right and just in the kickball universe!!! But I digress...so the Warriors look to be a good team. However they are going up against the new Upset Alert squad the Hash House Harriers. Now comes a true test for these drinkers with a running problem. As long as Hoser doesn't kill the umpires, the Harriers just might have a chance...
Warriors - 1
Hash House Harriers - 3

I agree with my #1 fan, this was a pertty good post. But your giving the EPHH way to much credit. A tie with the Monkeys doesn't have the same value as it would have last season. The Warriors should punish them good 7-2.

I agree. I think Rich hopes the H^3 beat the Warriors so that last week's tie seems more legit. If it was a cross country race, I would pull for the Harriers. However, in a game of kickball, the Warriors should be the true favorites.
