The Grand Finale

Le'Veon Bell has kept the Freebirds at #1 all year long in the BDFL, but can they finish the deal?

The BDFL embraces the league's Grand Finale

TITLETOWN - Mr. Webster defines "grand finale" as a very exciting, thrilling, or impressive ending to a performance, or show. You know, like the ending flurry of a Fourth of July fireworks show above Vulcan, the final encore of the Grand Ole Opry at the Ryman, or one of those curtain calls at a New York City Broadway play. In April 2017, NASA's Cassini spacecraft began writing its final, thrilling chapter of its remarkable 20-year-long story of exploration, called the "Grand Finale". Every week for five months, Cassini dove through the gaps between Saturn and its rings. No other spacecraft had ever explored this unique region of outer space. During its final orbit, Cassini pierced through Saturn's uppermost atmosphere, before finally plunging spectacularly into the planet's surface on September 15, 2017 for an out of this world grand finale. Based on Week 16 action, the BDFL's Big Daddy Championship Series (BDCS) is finally down to two surviving teams (the Western Hills Wildcats and the Black Creek Freebirds) and its own version of a "Grand Finale". To finish up the 2017 BDFL season in Week 17, one team will assend to league stardom with all the glory of a BDFL Championship Title and the coveted Grand Daddy Trophy, while the other will plunge to defeat and their season will become just another lost footnote in the annals of BDFL history. Congratulations to the Wildcats and Freebirds for advancing to Big Daddy Bowl XVI with monumental wins in Week 16. This Big Daddy Bowl match-up has all the makings of another classic BDFL title battle. The Big Mullet Series (BMS) also had a great week with five of the top six scores in Week 16. Tune-in next week, same bat-time, same bat-channel for the BDFL's 2017 Grand Finale. Thank you all for another great year in the BDFL!
