Overview

Cannonball Sports is a batter for the Miami Dale known for her raw strength, rollerblading skills, street fashion, hostility to authority, and possibly being made of stone. Sports has vitiligo and a number of graffiti-style tattoos, and is rarely seen without her headphones, rollerblades, and spray can.

Early Life

Sports is a Miami native, although there are conflicting reports of her origins. Many of her friends and neighbors say she was born in the XX80s in Hialeah, where she still lives near her parents, Rhiannon and Saul, and her brother, Cannonpaul. There is a widespread belief, however, that Sports was physically born from the Party Rock upon which the city sits. This belief is bolstered by reports that Sports’ body, or parts of it, are made of stone. A profile in the popular extreme splorts blog Splorts Illest-rated: The Illest News in Splorts said that Sports “glitters like moonlight on the Bay, with streaks of white like bands of light reflected.” Despite the questionably purple prose, this is good example of the popular depiction of Sports as made of a dark, shiny stone (obsidian?) with bands of white (believed to be Miami Oolite/limestone).

Skating Career

Sports started roller skating at a young age, and was a big name in the Miami roller derby scene before she even finished high school. Her notoriety as a derby skater initially led some people to believe that “Cannonball Sports” is a derby name, rather than her real name; however, in XX13, she went viral with the quote “with a name like mine, why would I ever need another?” After winning the XX16 Miami Regional Derby Tournament with her longtime team, the Vice City Sirens, Sports set her sights on roller blading and hasn’t looked back. She gained popularity outside the skating scene through her popular trick videos, bolstered by her growing interest in street fashion and art. During this time Sports got a large number of tattoos resembling graffiti art, solidifying her place as a local alternative style icon. Sports continued to expand her splorts horizons with the creation of the Urban Biathlon in XX18. This splort combines urban rollerblading along a predetermined course, with points awarded for trick difficulty and frequency, with periodic graffiti tagging of various surfaces and objects, with points awarded for style, originality, and how mad the graffiti will make some jerk at City Hall.

Blaseball Career

Conflicting reports exist of Sports’ entry to the world of blaseball, but it is generally agreed that she came on the scene with a bang during game 62 of Season 7 following the incineration of Murray Pony. “I could have sworn I saw her fly out of a sinkhole, like some kind of reverse crash landing,” said teammate Peanut Bong, who was not pitching that game. “No, all of us in the dugout saw her skate in and graffiti Mr. Wide’s back while he was watching from the tunnel. He turned around to look for her and on his back was her complete resume. It was really impressive,” said batter Raúl Leal. “All I know is she was tagging a hlotdog cart when I heard Mr. Wide yell ‘YOU PLAY FOR US NOW,’ and then she went and hit a triple,” said Don Elliott. Sports has brought a more aggressive revolutionary spirit to the Dale, exemplified by her campaign to “tag the Gods.”

Popular Depictions of First Game

Lightning strikes over and over as former batter Murray Pony is returned to dust, thunder echoing over the stands of Worldwide Field. There is one last boom, louder than any before, as something smashes a deep crater into the asphalt of Lot J. Moments later, the stands turn to the sound of wheels grinding along the railing behind the dugout. A figure dances--no, rollerblades--along the edge of the field, spraying graffiti over the advertisements on the wall: BOOM! in bright pink and aqua. Cannonball Sports skates up to the plate. - Author Unknown

Abs of vibesbranium

Making a big splash

bat of titanium

hair of gray ash

Cannon the sportsball

Was a rad and vibin soul

With vibesbranium abs and her muscles swole

And her body wet and cold

Cannon the sportsball was a blaseball tale they say

She came from the ground

With a booming sound

Reverse cannonball partay

There must have been some magic in

That pony angel's ash

For when it fell upon the ground

It birthed a cannon crash

The fans in the stands are cheering

And the beats be popping

And its the bottom of the seventh inning

Party foam party foam party foam

THUMPITY THUMP THUMP THUMPITY THUMP THUMP TURN THE SPEAKERS UP
