PETE’S PICKS: THE GRUDGE IN THE GULCH
Matchup:
🐂 Tank (San Antonio Outlaws) vs. 🦅 Frostbite (San Antonio Falcons)
The Arena:
A muddy hill behind Playbook Pub, freshly soaked from a sprinkler “malfunction.” First one to plant their opponent’s flag at the top wins. No cleats. No rules. No refunds.
💥 The Tale of the Tape
🐂 Tank – The Horned Hooligan
Snack Speed: 7/10 (once ate six hot dogs and half a pretzel mid-parade)
Stadium Hype Level: 10/10 (will headbutt anything—including the DJ booth)
Signature Move: Stampede Charge – three steps of full-speed fury followed by a surprise tackle
Biggest Weakness: Cannot turn. At all. Built like a battering ram with no steering wheel.
🦅 Frostbite – The Chill Enforcer
Snack Speed: 6/10 (sips iced lattes and judges you for eating cheese dip)
Stadium Hype Level: 8/10 (has his own line of plushies and a TikTok dance)
Signature Move: Wings of Fury – spins in place, slaps people with foam feathers, screeches like a warhawk
Biggest Weakness: Glass ankles. Slipped on a corn dog once. Hasn't recovered emotionally.
🧠 Pete’s Analysis:
Tank is built like a wrecking ball duct-taped to a bulldozer. Once he starts moving, it’s over—unless he has to climb something. That hill’s got a 30-degree incline and Tank’s got a 5-degree patience threshold.
Frostbite is fast, sneaky, and surprisingly scrappy. He’s been waiting for this rematch since Tank body-slammed him through a foam table during the Mascot Musical Chairs Massacre of 2023.
It’s brains vs. brawn. Ice vs. rage. Feathers vs. fury.
🏁 Pete’s Pick:
🦅 Frostbite takes it with a surprise divebomb and flag-plant while Tank is stuck trying to pivot uphill.
💬 “Tank’s rage-powered sprint looked promising until he realized hills require knees. Frostbite pulled a flying squirrel maneuver, and boom—victory. Ice cold, baby.” – Penalty Pete

Next week, the ice meets the inferno. ❄️🔥
Scorch and Frostbite have history—and it’s about to boil over.
Will the Falcon stay cool under pressure, or will the Scorpion finally burn his way to revenge?

Bring goggles. There will be feathers and flames.
