SYMON The Entertainer (pictured here) is one of Florida's greatest Billy Idol impersonators of all time.

But ever since October of 2005, SYMON has refused to play anywhere near the Ft. Myer's Beach area during the Roy Hobbs World Series.

When asked about this, SYMON only mutters what sounds like "monster" and something about "elderly wife abuse."

Long time Ft. Myer Beach residents won't talk either. Many just say it was a night they'd like to forget. But one local divorced woman, who was in traction, said that she was still hoping for the return of "Deuce"

Cobalts Look Ahead to Roy Hobbs World Series

Posted by Mark Dietz at Aug 13, 2007 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

The 2007 Cobalt Season nows goes into "Part II" with the boys taking a few weeks off before gearing up for Florida and the World Series.

 

Want to thank those old and new Cobalts that made this whacky, sometimes kooky, 2007 CRC Season a fun year. We have a lot to build on. Obviously, 20-10-2 is not where we hoped to finish, but '06 was a hard act to follow.

NABF Regionals Done-and-Gone for Cobalts

Posted by Mark Dietz at Aug 10, 2007 5:00PM PDT ( 0 Comments )

No Repeat performance in Louisville for 2007.

Cobalts drop Game #1 to Cincy Chiefs who had a 4 run rally to beat the 'Balts 4-3.

Game #2 was better with Shannon Morgan humping a no-hitter and bats came alive for a nice little win.

Then the clincher on Friday...A 4-0 loss with the Cobalt 9 struggling to support Paully either in the field or at the plate.

Good Morning, Good Afternoon, See ya in Florida!

Cobalts finish like a wounded duck...Coach takes the blame. He apologizes to the 9 guys who did make the trip to Springfield. You deserved better support! That WILL NOT happen again!

No Lipstick Gonna Make This Loss Look Perty

Ouuuchhhh...Up 2-1 in the 7th inning with 2 outs and 2 strikes on the batter, Mike Wagner splits the center of the dish with a fastball. Batter takes it and....ball 3 ???



Well, you can pretty much write the script after something as gut-wrenching as that; bleeders, high chopps, and 2 runs get home and you now have a new CRC Champion - the boys from Yorkville.



Hats off to them - GREAT Season! Consistent all year and proved to have the heart last night.



The true shame was Mike Wagner's unbelievable night of 10 innings pitched across 2 seperate games giving up only 1 earned run.



So Cobalts drag their tired butts home after drowning their sorrows in 104 Natches and get ready for Thursday's NABF Regional Tournament in Springfield, OH against a field of 11 teams - including our old friends of Jet Box.



Games begin as early as 11 am on Thursday and Friday so start thinking of those sick-day excuses now.
