Week 2 - Two for Tuesday...
Week Two: A tribute to Eddie Money, “Two
Tickets to Paradise” Bullets Earn Top Dog Honors by
Shooting Down ‘Dillos: All the Duncanville Armadillos
did on Thursday Night NFL/BDFL Football was sit back in their cozy PSL
(Personal Seat License) season tickets in Charlotte at the Carolina
Panthers game and watch their kicker score more than their team. The sly
kicker for Carolina put up 18-points, while the team only scored 14.
(4-FGs, 2-over 50). So… K.P. and Company opened with an 18-0 lead in
their Week Two match-up with the Benton Bullets. But, the Bullets never
panicked. They stuck to their guns and “total team mentality.” The Boys
from Benton battled back in the Black Belt, and ended up getting
production up-and-down to line-up to score an amazing 50-points to
defeat the ‘Dillos, 50-39. The “Little ol team from Texas,” can blame
the dreaded schedule maker, because they would have defeated 14 of the
16 BDFL teams with their Week Two point total. With the vict’ry, the
Bullets moved to 2-0 and have established themselves as the “hunted”
early in the 2019 season. Week Two: Two Pina Coladas
(one for each hand – Garth Brooks): Juggernauts Roll to 2-0 in A.W.
of Blitz: The Jugtown Juggernauts moved
to 2-0 too, on the young season, with the second-highest point total in
Week Two. The ‘Nauts blew out the Blitz in A.W.-style, 42-16. Even the
new @$$-scoring system had this one down as an @$$-whipping. The Druid
City Blitz is in early season trouble, but that’s really nothing new for
Jerry Fritz and his motley band on not-ready-for-prime-time players. As
for A.E. – fresh back from Columbia, S.C., and an Alabama A.W., and
revenge for a 9-year-old wound – she and her Gardendale Girls appear to
be poised for a playoff run this season in the BDFL. Week Two: Two Hearts Beat as
One (U2) Dogs Ignite Brookside
Rebirth with Vict’ry over BioCats: The Brookside Dogs scored
36-points in Week One. In Week Two, Mark’s Mutts only managed 25-points,
but that was just enough to earn a two-point vict’ry (25-23) over the
Western Hills Wildcats on the banks of the Five Mile Creek. And, not
since the watershed rebuilding of the Creek has the town of Brookside
enjoyed such rebirth. The Dogs are 2-0 so far in 2019 and there is
significant excitement all over town, including on Main Street just
outside the closed doors of Wayne’s Place and the old Five and Dime
store. Oh, no one expects the old stores to open, but like the Cleveland
Browns – it’s just nice to win a game or two for the old town (and old
Dodie Goode, Booger Bass, & Dwight Slowees). Week Two: Two Doors Down
(Dwight): Freebirds Two-Step to a Narrow
Win vs. Sloths: Jaimie interrupted the classic
duo of Mukes & Albert just long enough this past weekend to come away
with a crucial, early-season vict’ry. The Black Creek Freebirds managed
to put “scouting” above “partying” just long enough to defeat the Shades
Creek Sloth Monsters by the final score of 19-15. It wasn’t easy for the
team formerly-known-as the wooden warriors to dislodge the Three Toed
Tree Dwellers from their trusty lower limb, but the Freebirds pulled off
the feat and commenced to celebrate with a case of ponies. “Ponies,”
said Jaimie, “because we didn’t want to drink too much.” Week Two: Two Outta Three Ain’t
Bad (Meatloaf): Grenadiers Top Cheetahs 24-18
in Return to Green Springs: There was no way the Sin Wagon
was rolling into Mineral Springs in Week Two for obvious reasons. So,
the Commissioner and Butch quickly got together and decided to play a
“neutral site” game in Green Sprangs. How soon they forget (especially
Butch), but the Grenadiers used to own Green Sprangs. Old Sharped
Dressed carved out a good deal of his lasting reputation on the softball
fields there, some of the once hole-in-the-wall establishments and the
quick, easy sales for the once-media-magnet, Birmingham News. In the
BDFL action, the TWO grand-dads slugged it out all day, posting pictures
of their grandkids, and bragging on social media. When the proverbial,
invisible cloud of cyber smoke cleared… the Grenadiers had a nice
vict’ry over the Southside Cheetahs. Week Two: Love me Two Times
(The Doors): PowerSleds Edge Mayors, 19-18: In what turned out to be the
closed game of the weekend, the Fairfield PowerSleds outlasted the Magic
City Mayors in a “Magnificent Seven” match-up, by the final score of
19-18. These TWO original BDFL franchises battled it out in a West Side
Story war of Jets & Sharks that started on Thursday Night crossed into
Sunday and didn’t end until the curtain finally closed following Monday
Night Football. Mad Jack was able to capture the 1-point win over the
Cronies with trickery, deception, and tactical superiority. For A.A. and
his Mayors, the defeat was a bitter pill to swallow, but he vowed to get
back to his campaign promises, finish construction on the new
state-of-the-art downtown stadium, get the Commodores to play at
Boutwell Auditorium, and move on to Week Three. Week Two: Two Hearts are
Better than One (The Boss – The River): Bellcows Fall to 0-2 with Loss
to Gamblers: The Fieldstown Bellcows barely
made it out of the barn and into the dewy meadow for their second-ever
game in the BDFL. They looked a little better in Week Two, but were
still denied their first-ever franchise vict’ry, as the Gulf Coast
Gamblers topped the Bell Heads by a touchdown, 17-10. The Dixie Mafia
was just glad to get the win, after having one snatched from their
greedy hands in Week One. As for Belrose, he’s just glad he didn’t get
the Toilet Seat award for the second straight week. Week Two: Two Princes
(Spin Doctors): Bishops Embarrassed by Dorians: The “Toilet Seat Team of the
Weak,” for Week Two, goes to the Mt. High Blue Deacons, who scored in
single digits (8). Mr. Anthony’s Hayden District Bishop Squad (HDBS) was
embarrassed in the second week of the BDFL season by the Altadena
Dorians, 23-8. The Dorians poured it on, on Sunday afternoon, dealing
the Blue Deacons their first loss of the season, while at the same time
picking up Mr. Stephenson’s first win of the new season. Both teams will
now venture onto Week Three with identical records of 1-1. Week Two in the Jr BDFL - “It’s all
about the kids.” In the
Junior League, the kids continue in the fancy world of ESPN.com. In Week
Two action, the Selma Southpaws remained undefeated with an 89.6 to 58.5
vict’ry over Team Stark Dismukes. In other games, the Barn Burners beat
to Junior Bishop Squad, Walker Stephenson defeated Milton Hand, the
Onion Turtles lost to Jacob Wood & Company, the other Burr (Jacob Burr)
fell to Ethan Arrington, and Meredith Hand dropped a 10.7-point decision
to Ben Hand, 92.9 to 82.2 in a game that was closer (by a couple of
decimal points) than the scored indicated. |
