This Guy is Officially a Cobra Kai.

Change--Just as our nation is about to embark on a historical change in office, one that should bring hope back to our beleaguered nation so too did a New Season of Softball present to the Cobra Kai’s a chance to embark on our first league championship.

The Kai’s lost our legendary utility fielder and Tomahawk chopping JW as he embarked on his own change and vow to trade in his cleats for some of Uncle Sam’s boots to protect this great nation instead of the plate. Well, Capt’ Tucci was excited to unveil our newest addition to the Cobra Kai’s none other than double S himself Captain Smooth, Sean Sullivan.

“I was excited to take the field as a one of the legendary Cobra Kai’s Friday night as this was a lifelong dream for me to fullfill, don’t ever let anyone tell you that dreams don’t come true…..I mean we live in Orland for blimey sake’s……and everybody knows that Orlando is magical and your dreams really can come true. I was so excited I crapped my pants, but I didn’t want to change because it kind of kept me warm” Said Sullivan during pre-game warm-up as he was introduced to the Red Bug lake media.

Well, trying to stay hot ended up being the primary goal of Friday night’s game as frigid temperatures caused the Kai to come out rusty and cold. “It was colder than a witch’s tit out there, and it threw our game off a bit” said Koko as he tried to stay warm in between innings by snuggling with Big Daddy Gutierrez in the dugout.
At the start of the night, the Cobra Kai sat atop the Red Bug Lake league with an unblemished record. On paper the Habenero’s looked good, however on this particular Friday night, they were even bigger. So, on the card was a big matchup of the league’s two top teams with a history for all the marbles and beer league bragging rights. Well, this game was not our game to be, but next game we will be ready I can assure you of that” said Capt. Tucci after the game.

Well, the Habenero’s jumped out to an early lead capitalizing on the Cobra Kai’s rusty skills and cold hands as we had not taken the field of battle together in almost a month so it took awhile for the team to get settled in. Strike First, Strike Hard, and No Mercy…..well the Habenero’s did just that. “I think they were sucking on a special Habenero sauce that kept them warm and jacked for the game, I want to find out what that stuff was” Said Mikey Lemieux after the game.

The Kai’s bats were a little rusty as well as we put together a few rallies to bring the game close at 9-5 but we never were able to get over the hump. DonJuan kept his on base streak alive at 87 games by bulleting a shot over the infields head early in the game and Double S made his debut to the league be known by slicing a single in his first at bat with the bases loaded and thus announced his coming out party………no not that coming out he still hasn’t admitted to that yet…..but that’s another story.

The Habenero’s solid fielding was the main culprit for the Kai’s cold bats. “We hit the ball hard and well tonight, the ball just didn’t take the right bounces for us as they were fielding machines eating everything up that we hit there way” Said Johnny Blaze. This couldn’t have been a truer statement as the gold glove Right Center Field for the Habenero’s robbed nearly every Kai member of a solid hit.

Well, the team has some work to do and is excited to get back under the lights this Friday night to begin our quest at a championship season. The team will be missing Capt. Tucci who will begin his journey to fulfill his ultimate goal of binding his love for Lady Kai Allison this weekend. Chaplain Greiveldinger will also be missing as he must prepare himself to send off Captain under the Lord’s guidance.

As always, the team came through at Gators. We swept in and picked up right where we left off last season and broke our team record of 88 pitchers this past Friday night. Well, good luck this Friday against the “Chosen Few” under the Friday Night Lights!
