DRUID
CITY - Grease is a 1978 American musical romantic comedy film
based on the 1971 musical of the same name. The movie depicts the high
school romance of greaser Danny Zuko (John Travolta) and Australian
transfer student Sandy Olsson (Olivia Newton-John) who develop an
attraction for each other during a summer romance. Zuko blows it in the
fall trying to be too cool for school, but wins her back in the end.
Hopefully, you've all seen it by now. Grease was successful
both critically and commercially, becoming the highest-grossing musical
film ever at that time. With a $6 million budget, the film has grossed
over $366 million. The soundtrack ended the year (1978) as
the second-best-selling album of the year in the United States, behind
only the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (which also starred
Travolta) and the album earned an Oscar for "Hopelessly Devoted to You"
at the 51st Academy Awards. In 2020, the film was selected for
preservation in the United States National Film Registry by the Library
of Congress as being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically
significant". In the movie, Coach Vince Calhoun (Sid Caesar) was Rydell
High's stereotypical coach and PE teacher. During the 1958-59 school
year, Coach Calhoun helped the T-Bird's leader, (Danny) find a sport
that he could handle, eventually settling on "long-distance running" for
the track & field team, so Danny could try to win Sandy back. Coach
Calhoun also coached the Rangers football team and he delivers one of
the best sports lines in the history of comedy film. At the outdoor pep
rally prior to an upcoming football game, Coach Calhoun ends his
awe-inspiring speech with the classic line. "...And after the slaughter
is over... We're gonna come back here... And ring that vict'ry bell...
Like we've always wanted to". In the opening week of the 2022 BDFL
season (Week 1), the Bellcows mosied on down to West Alabama and
slaughtered da Blitz (47-28) at Kentuck Park in a match-up that wasn't
even that close. Once the Bellcows returned to Massey Hill you could
hear that vict'ry bell clanging all the way to Cluster Springs until
midnight.

TITLETOWN -
Improving your BDFL roster during the season has never been
better, thanks to the league's new, innovation WORM Rule.
Instituted last year to deal with instability on BDFL rosters,
the WORM Rule gives all BDFL teams the flexibility to make one
roster move per week from Weeks 1-12. The weekly one roster move
(WORM) per team was very well received last year in its debut
year. There could be a few tweaks in 2022, but the basic concept
should stay the same. There was a ton of value found in the ol'
proverbial "Worm Hole" of the BDFL last season with players like
Elijah Mitchell, Cordarrelle Patterson, Davis Mills, Emmanuel
Sanders, Randy Bullock, Taylor Heinicke, Hunter Henry, Van
Jefferson, Zach Ertz and Tim Patrick, just to name a few, were
claimed via the WORM Rule. Look
for more WORM value this year when teams need an in-season
roster boost. Email Iron Hand prior to the weekly starter
deadline to make your WORM move. Typically, the weekly WORM Hole
window is open each week from Monday at midnight until the
starters are due on Thursday.|
