From Underneath The Rock in Media Void By Bullet Head Week
14 in the BDFL... Wizards
Whack Blades (Greystone)—“Merlin ought to just get down on
his knees and thank Kawliga for drafting him such a quality team.”
That was the observation made by one member of the media
following the Wizards whacking of the Shelby County Sod Farmers on
Sunday. (Kawliga has
successfully drafted the top two teams in the Green Horn Division.)
“Your @$$ is grass and I’m a Briggs & Stratton,
self-propelled, 3.8 horsepower mowing machine,” said Merlin after
completely embarrassing the Blades in front of a packed house of
Cardigans, khakis and bow ties at the Tea & Crumpet Coliseum inside
the pearly-gates of Greystone this weekend.
(And, the bow ties were the “geeky” kind, not the
international symbol of excellence that is the Chevy logo.)
At any rate, it now looks as though Merlin might actually
challenge the Woodies for the Green Horn Division championship, (not!)
however both teams are the product of one person’s football
knowledge and it’s not the one who did his apprenticeship in
Lee County. Woodies Roll Toward Big Daddy Bowl II (Black Creek)—“It’s not that he drafted
that much of a better team than he drafted for the Wizards, it’s that
he is doing a better job handling his team than Merlin is.
He drafted equal teams. He
just knows more about football than the not-so-great Wizard.”
Those were the comments of a BDFL insider this week, following
another brilliant performance by the Wooden Warriors.
Kawliga’s Tribe has been on the warpath all season and shows no
signs of urinating on the fire and calling in the dogs until the hunt is
over. Sunday, the Woodies
scalped the Sloths on the reservation and then made Mukes buy the adult
beverages and parade around in women’s clothes. Correction: Hime
“only” made the Three-Toed Tree Dwellers purchase the beer, they
dressed in women’s clothes “on their own.” Bullets
Win Again (Gardendale)—A standing room only crowd
gathered at Rocket Stadium to “officially” witness the retiring of
the metal and wood, maroon and white bench on the home side of Ed Bruce
Field as a tribute to the man who made that bench famous.
Bullet even put his buns prints in concrete under a plaque to
mark the occasion and the bench was forever encased in glass.
Following the ceremony, the “fired-up” Bullets pulled a
“ready, aim, fire” routine on the ‘Nauts and blasted their way to
a two-point vict’ry over a bunch of girls, which is probably the only
group that the Bullets could beat right now.
“A win is a win is a win!” exclaimed Bullerino.
“We were pumped up after all the pre-game stuff, the tribute
and all, and just decided to go out there and annihilate them.
We showed ‘em how to play a little smash-mouth football.
I have to credit my offensive line of Mike White, Roger Shultz,
Williard Scissum, Hardy Walker and Bill Jordan for really blowing those
girls off the line of scrimmage.” Bullet’s
other post-game comments: On
the retiring of the home bench at Rocket Stadium:
“You know the first time I really got hit and I
mean smoked good, Round Man sent me over to sit on that bench.
I fell off. But,
that was my sophomore year. As
I got more experience, I learned how not only to stay on the bench, but
to really perfect the art. I
used to hate to go on road games because they just didn’t have the
same kind of accommodations. But,
you know it is really an honor to have this, and to join the other
prestigious awards. You
know Hotdog had the fence, Ledlow the toilet, Roy the locker, Guffin the
downhill ramp, Chris the golden tooth, Win and Crandall the wet track,
Orazine and Mann the back of the bus, and Tommy Kinney the Champ to
Chump. So, It’s an honor.
Thank you very little.” No
Aid For the Cheetahs (Green Springs)—The places in Atlanta have
their rules and Sammy’s has the famous “touch and go” policy, but
when old Iron has the home field/club/bar advantage, “watch out.” The Banana Eaters hit the weight room for six-straight days
leading up to their showdown with the showgirls, and it paid off.
The Johnny’s “scored” at opportune times and kept the
Cheetahs “off balance” all night with bar hopping around Southside
before going for the kill at the Upside Down Plaza. When Pistol got to the pool tables with a reserve PBR in his
starched-white business shirt pocket, it was all over but the shouting.
The Sin Wagon now appears to be rolling down hill and may end up
blowing, pardon the pun, what was once thought of as an
“insurmountable” lead in the Gray Beard Division. “It’s no longer rolling, baby,” said a beleaguered Mike
Price. Bootleggers
March Toward Top (No Teeth, Tenn.)—The “old” Mad Jack
finally reared his ugly head (DuBose size, but not as big as Big
John’s) this weekend. That’s
right, he protested. It
seems Mad wanted nothing to do with venturing up into the great suction,
which is Tennessee. Strangely
enough, Mr. Wood also wanted out of No Teeth for a time and agreed to
play the game in Fort Payne. That
turned out to be the “pretty, pretty pain cave,” for the
Sleds as the Bootleggers landed numbers shots of their size 12½, Mac
Sanderson, Tom McCann, patented leather, pointed toe, genuine
rattlesnake boots to the backside of Mr. Barnes. “Thank you sir, may I have another.” After the game, the Wood Brothers returned to No Teeth for a
“family reunion,” while the Sledheads walked – albeit slowly,
slowly, slowly – back to Fairfield after absorbing an official A.W. Woo
Crew Traps Dogs (Brookside)—The “Smoke Riders in the Sky”
pulled off an excellent “road trip” to Brookside this weekend and
left with a big vict’ry over the rival Dogs.
Woo got the surprising win against Mark’s Mutts, broke some
furniture doing the gator, and proceeded to parade around the banks of
the Five Mile Creek in a toga. However,
Woo also managed to leave some calling cards of own that were discovered
later and really embarrassed Dog. It
seems that some suspicious magazines were left scattered about and in
the upstairs bathroom someone left one to “fester.” Mayors
Outgunned by Gamblers (Biloxi, Miss.)—Everyone knows that you got to
“know when to hold ‘em and know when to fold ‘em,” no one more
so than the Gamblers. Now,
it is officially time that the Mayors – the Defending BDFL Champions
– learn that lesson. It’s time for the Cronies to pack it up and call it a year.
Don’t even send starters in next week, just take the “L,”
and wait for next year’s draft. In
the biggest “Champ to Chump” slide in memory, A.A.’s team has not
lacked “competitive spirit,” they have lacked a pulse.
This weekend, the Mayors brought home another Toilet Seat Team of
the Weak award and appear to be clogging up the schedule by actually
showing up each week. |
