Red Rocket Report: Express Lube Edition

Yellowbird is doing his best Gorecki impression, and totally dropping the ball on these reports. So... Svedka! I'll write the damn thing this time.

Week 3:
Red Rockets Repeat!! took on Happy Endings in the slip-n-slide game.  The Happy Endings are a team led by Frank-N-Jeans, and have made some huge moves (literally) in acquiring Florian this off-season.

The Rockets made a few fielding errors, but the game was never close.  And errors are always present when getting hit in the face with water balloons.  RRR managed 8 trips down the slide, and HE's only 4.

Speaking of getting hit in the face with water balloons... the newly dubbed "Douche Team" of the league (Drunk Again & Looking to Score) decided to "help" out Happy Endings with their water balloon tossage. Come to find out... that includes hitting RRR runners point blank in the face.  The week before they had a little tizzy with the Rockets, after getting swept 7-0 in exhibition flip-cup.  Needless to say... SOME of the people on that time suck at life.

Final Score: 8-4 Rockets win!

Week 4:
RRR took on the Children Left Behind, which is a team made up of workers from the Tampa Police Department. I'm very surprised Ruben even showed up for this game (maybe he didn't know).  Anyway, they weren't very good and lost 14-2 in a game which was called early.  So it should have been a lot worse.

Nothing of note happened... except for Chandler doing his best Gorecki impression and dropping what had to be the easiest pop-fly in existence. This feat earned him the Wendy and the Gorecki. And a ton of ridicule, which caused a bout of depression followed by questioning if the game has passed him by.

Final Score: 14-2 Rockets dominate! 

After the game... it was flip-cup tournament time.  Here's all you need to know:
  • Kickball Society did "time trials" this year to seed the teams. Took fucking forever.
  • Drunk Again & Looking to Score (see: Douche Team) heckled both Red Rockets teams during the time trials.
  • Said Douche Team got bounced out in round one by a shitty Happy Endings team. Red Rockets all sang "hey hey hey goodbye" to them, which resulted in death stares and pouting.
  • Both Red Rocket teams made the finals.  Best of 5. Defending champ "Drunk Lunch" won 3-2.
Drunk Lunch

So there you have it. No lyrics. No anal lube. No nothing.

Kevin, go to your room!
