Dangerous Russell
Wilson has the Gulf Coast Gamblers on a roll over the last two weeks
in the BDFL
The
Gamblers are on a hot streak in the BDFL
EASTERN
SHORE - The
Rolling Stones' classic hit Tumbling Dice was originally
entitled Good Time Women and was co-written by Mick Jagger and Keith
Richards for the 1972 double album Exile on Main Street. The
song was recorded in the basement of the chateau Villa Nellcote in
France. It peaked at #7 on the U.S. Billboard charts and reached #5 in
the United Kingdom. The lyrics tell the story of a down on his luck gambler who cannot
remain faithful to one woman. I'm the lone crap shooter, playin' the
field ev'ry night. The music features a
boogie-woogie blues rhythm and has been noted for its irregular lyrical
structure and funky groove.
The song's slow tempo is credited for creating this unique groove sound. Richards wrote the musical riff upstairs in
the elegant front room of the chateau and they took it to the basement the
same evening and cut it for the album. Jagger came up with the song's
final lyrics after talking to the Villa Nellcote housekeeper about gambling
and her love for rolling dice. With Charlie Watts on the drums and Mick
Taylor on bass, Tumbling
Dice is a Rolling Stones staple. It's basically an old blues track about gambling
and love. The Gamblers are loving this roll they are on over the last
two weeks in the BDFL. Here is
Tumbling Dice

It is time for
the BDFL's annual Pucker Factor Poll
TITLETOWN -
The Pucker Factor Poll (PFP) doesn't apply to all the teams in
the BDFL. Some are able to coast to the BDCS playoffs
while others are already out of it altogether. However, the poll does apply to a select bunch in
the middle that are on the proverbial pot. The Poll is neither
subjective, nor objective, but does go by an intricate W-L-PTS
secret formula that is more complex than the Colonel Harland Sanders'
Kentucy Fried Chicken recipe. The Colonel's
Kentucky Buckets will get a game during Throwback Week 2018. Check out the
latest PFP here.
