The BDFL's Weekly Game Summaries

By Bob Bullet

Week 13 - Steve Earle, Kiss, The Eagles and Cisco

“Hey pretty baby are you ready for me. It's your good rockin' daddy down from Tennessee.
I'm just out of Austin bound for San Antone, with the radio blastin' and the bird dog on.
There's a speed trap up ahead in Selma Town, but no local yokel gonna shut me down.
'Cause me and my boys got this rig unwound, and we've come a thousand miles from a Guitar Town.”

Who else but Steve Earle?

Who’s hot?

Can you believe it? The Mayors: The old Cronies took a little (afternoon) delight in being the team to officially put the Cheetahs out of their misery, dealing them loss number 8 to eliminate them from post-season.  The Mayors vict’ry over the Sin Wagon derails any chance of Butch defending last season’s BDFL Championship.

Who else is hot (or at least warm)?

The Wildcats; Playing for pride, the James Gang put a whipping on the Dogs, which it seems everyone has done in the second half of the season.  Still, Mark’s Mutts remain in a position to possibly make the playoffs with the 16th or lowest point total in the BDFL.  All they need is a win next week, and a loss by the Slovaks.

Who’s not?

The Fighting Slovaks: The Pi Cap Caravan is in the same derailed ditch as the Cheetahs, albeit with a lot less points.  Cousin Jaimie and the wounded Wooden Warriors… “Not so fast my friend,” said Lee Corso.  On Monday Night Football, the Slovaks rebounded with a resounding effort to overtake the Tribe by one-point, and earn a much needed, clutch vict’ry.  It continues Chief Kawliga’s horrible season, but puts the Helena Hellions in prime position to make an improbable run to the BDFL post-season for the first time in Euro-trash hist’ry.

Stat of the week:

Rookie Reggie Bush (Saints – Slovaks) left the San Francisco 49ers grabbing at air in a series of jaw-dropping plays on Sunday, catching nine passes for 131 yards and a touchdown and running for three more scores to lead New Orleans to a 34-10 vict’ry at the Superdome. Last year's Heisman Trophy winner scored on runs of 1, 8 and 10 yards and on a 5-yard shovel pass from Drew Brees, tying Joe Horn's franchise record for touchdowns in a single game and scoring 21-BDFL points.  Too bad the Slovaks had him on the bench, excellent move, Einstein; a move that earns Adam the “Bonehead of the Week” award.

(Non-BDFL) Stat of the week:

DeMeco Ryans (Houston Texans) 13-tackles, 1 sack, 1 fumble recovery, 3 pass deflections, and 1-interception

Quote of the week:

“I know it has to be difficult to accept an “AW” from one of the “have nots” in the GBD,” said Mayor General Manager Alan Arrington.  “Sorry, you know us bottom feeders have to beat our chest when we get the opportunity.”  See above in “who’s hot” section; you remember how the Cronies ended the Sin Wagon’s season.

Edspiration, or in lieu of this:

Coal truck driver Cisco’s son on the Fraternal Order of Eagles: “They ain’t nothing but a bunch of drunks.”

Cisco: “What do you think I am?!”

Play of the week:

Rob Bironas (Titans – Grenades) kicks a 60-yard field goal at the buzzer (for the 2nd straight week) to give the Titans another thrilling come-from-behind vict’ry over one of the Mannings.  D.K. and the other Eagles in attendance cheered wildly at the end, mainly because there is no 7th-inning-stretch beer cut-off rule in the NFL.  The points did not, however, help the home standing Grenades.  They were throttled by the Mean Machine.  Mad Jack’s Power Sleds improved to 11-2 on the season and continue to hold onto the top seed (most points) in the upcoming BDFL bracket, with only one week left in the regular season. “You say you’ll be mine for a while.  You’re looking fancy, and I like your style.  You drive us wild, we’ll drive you crazy.” You want the best, you got the best! Kiss.

“Out there” of the week:

Or “out of the playoffs” of the week; the Juggernauts rebound a week after being jilted from the BDFL “all boys” post-season by cutting down L.A.’s Blades at Rice Rocket Stadium.  A.E. was spotted not far from the stadium after the game at Uncle Ray’s house, apparently getting some information on how to “bring down” the dreaded Schedule Maker.

“Seinfeld Four” Sit-com moment:

“And you want to be my latex salesman,” said Jerry to a prostate, pants-down George.

Reason #72 to be in the BDFL:

Giddy is not.  You don’t have to decipher if you are speaking to the Old Barry or the New Barry.

Phil Rizzuto WW Award:

“Wasn’t watching,” or WW is what famous Yankees’ broadcaster (and prior to that, shortstop) Phil Rizzuto would write on his scorecard when he missed a play and didn’t know what happened.  What did he tell listeners?  Anyway, the following games get a “WW” from the Bulletin this week, all wins by Wizards, Woosiers, and Whiskey Runners: the Wizards whipped the Sloth Monsters, the Woo Crew topped the Gamblers, and the Bootleggers shot down the Bullets.  By the way, all six of these teams have already punched their tickets to the BDFL “winner’s bracket” Big Daddy Championship Series, and are in the process of getting ready for their post-season runs.  Also, all but the Bootleggers are former BDFL Champions. Nuff said.

Generation Next:

Frank Hand (son of the commissioner) is in a band called “Killer Quails”.  He has “made it up to Music Row, don’t the wheels turn slow.”

Next week:

The last weekend of the regular season is upon us and the “Brookside Duo” – Slovaks and Dogs are in position to battle for the last spot in the winner’s bracket, and likely possibility of getting crushed in Round One by the Power Sleds.
