Player Update

They got off the bus in D.C. late for their White House celebration.

Sgt. Pepper: Don't worry, men. I know an underground shortcut.

5 seconds later.

Paul: Whoa! The White House.

Sgt. Pepper: You boys look around. I have stuff to do.

Chris: Hey, Raul, John, let's follow the Drill Sergeant.

Raul: Sounds stupid.

John: You're going.

Raul: Yes, sir.

Pepper walked down a bunch of hallways and through a bunch of doors into a bathroom.

Raul: You two made me walk for two hours for this ?!

Chris: Shhh! Just watch.

Pepper slipped into a secret passage to a secret underground tunnel.

The others followed.

The President: Pepper! You're late.

Pepper: I'm sorry Mr. President. I needed to make sure no one was following me.

President: Never mind. First order of business: How are the anklets?

Pepper: Had 'em taken off by Agent X, in Norway.

Young Secret Agent: That would be me, sir.

President: Perfect.

Pepper: All except for Azul.

President: The Blue Grandmother? What's wrong with him?

Older Secret Agent: That's where I come in. He spray painted his anklet blue so we couldn't get it off without killing him.

President: Then why didn't you kill him?

Pepper: Mr. President!

President: I was kidding, Pepper. Cool your jets man.

Older Secret Agent: That's not in my "Hip Lingo Used By Kids Today" book, sir.

President: It doesn't matter. Pepper!

Pepper: Sir, yes, sir!

President: This older gentleman to the right of me is stepping down from his position here.

Pepper: You mean Agent Cool is retiring?!

President: Yes, and I want you to be his replacement.

Agent Cool: Whaddya mean I'm retiring?! I never said that!

President: Yes you did, you just don't remember. Remember?

Agent Cool: Oh yeah.

Pepper: I'm sorry President (Insert future President's name here), but I can't leave these guys. I just can't do it.

Raul: You tell him Drill Sgt.!

Agent X: What was that?!

President: Probably Abe Lincoln's ghost.

Agent Cool: I'm pretty sure honest Abe wasn't Indian.

President: You would know cause your so old. Oh, Pepper you're still here. You're dismissed. See you later. You can take our Scranton Representative job.

Pepper: As you wish.

*Pepper leaves*

President: So Pepper's gone soft, eh? X, you get the job!

Agent X: I'll prove to be far superior over Pepper!

Raul: THAT'S IT!MY MANAGER ISN"T SOFT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Raul attacked the President, but was easily defeated by Agents X and Cool. He was arrested for attempted assassination.

Chris: We-eeeell. It looks like we're late.

John: Yeah, let's go!

Now, leave comments below.

I like it. Keep up the good work!

Pablo:Pepper has a heart and cares about us! And he's a secret agent!

Brian:That's so black ops!

Part Deux

President ------: Is everyone here?

Pepper: I believe so.

President: Let's begin.

Summary of President's speech: Great team. Blah, blah, blah. Great people. Blah, blah, blah. Corny joke. Fake laughs. God Bless America.

Things didn't go very well for the Stranglers in reality.

Chris and John were so nervous that they would be arrested next for conspiring with Raul. Paul fell asleep standing up because he was so bored. Azul walked out in protest of the immigration laws. Sgt. Pepper was still conflicted over the job offer. All he did was fix his tie, smile and nod. Brian dropped the F-Bomb. Not the word (though he dropped that a few times too) a fake bomb fell out off his pocket. Two secret service dudes tackled him, but they touched his beard and started crying.
Then when they gave the President his jersey, they spelled his name wrong.

Afterwords the Sgt. screamed and hollered, but didn't seem to get through.

Later Mr. Goldman walked in.

Goldman: After hearing of his arrest, Raul Gaddaba has been traded to the Cardinals for cash.

Brian: What the f---?!

Mick: Brian, pick up your F-bomb. You dropped it.

Brian: Oh sorry. I'll have to get the hole in my pocket fixed.

Ringo: *budumcrash!*

Joey: Bono has also been trades to the Cardinals.

Brian: Holy S---!

Keith: Brian, watch your mouth.

Bono was in tears. He hated the Cardinals almost as much as he loved the Stranglers.

Sounds like Pablo had a good game.

This is spring training?

Nope. Regular season. We're 2-1.

Ha, Wilson got a save too. I didn't see that before.

In the second he loaded up the bases the next thig you know , Jose Reyes hit a three RBI triple. George Harrison ran into the wall and had to be taken out of the game for a right shoulder bruise and concussion like symptoms. Reginald McLeary replaced him. Rocky Racoon came in giving up two runs, but one was unearned.

The Stranglers were down 2-0, but Ringo Starr hit a rare home run and Chris Kennedy followed with a homer of his own. 2-2. The Stranglers were down 6-2 when Keith Richards blasted a home run to the deepest part of the park in left center field.
