Big Daddy Bowl Re-Match (AW #1)

The first of three (3) A.W.’s in Week One goes to the defending champion Black Creek Wooden Warriors who put it on the Duncanville Armadillos, 58-21, in a re-match of last season’s Big Daddy Bowl. Old Kawliga & Company scored early and often (while Kurt was just “going ugly early”) in the kickoff game of the new season. So, you can go ahead and start tracking Prewitt’s “Sophomore Slump.” Meanwhile, in the early “power polls” the Totem Poles look down at the rest of the field, smear on their war-paint and announce to the “rest of the field” that they will be hard to catch, and even harder to pass this season.

Gamblers Kill Commish (AW #2)

The Riverboat Ramblers and Gamblers ran up 53-points in the first week of the season, to easily put an A.W. on Chris Hand. This one was never close. The “Real Deal” rolled up a huge night behind Peyton Manning on Thursday Night Football (7-TD passes) and routed the Mineral Springs Grenadiers by 4-touchdowns. Iron, who has barely recovered from the draft, is now combing through Coalburg, Republic, Daisy City, and Hooper City, looking for some ball-players just in case he get another shot at the Dixie Mafia down in the loser’s bracket.

What?! Wildcats Whip Bullets (AW #3)

Yep, Bullet’s draft night gaffes (not quaffs) came back to haunt him in Week One of the 2013 BDFL Season. The Bullets were shot down by the Western Hills Wildcats in A.W. fashion, 45-11. So, now the Benton Bullets will comb the league (NFL) waiver wires for some players to add under the auspices of the RICKA Rule. Meanwhile, the James Gang takes a big step to start the season and will have a big target on their backs from this point forward as they go from the hunter to the hunted in just one week.

Dogs Hang on by a Paw Against Three-Toed Tree Dwellers

If you are scoring at home (and we know you are), you’ll notice that Mark Burr’s losing streak has reached 18-years. And, with Jaimie winning the BDFL Championship last season, Dog is now the veteran member of the Null Set Club. In fact, he’s the chief cook and bottle-washer, captain of the ship, head honcho, and Big Dog when it comes to those who have never won a BDFL Title (Null Set Club). Of course, Mr. Burr hopes to end all of that this season (so he has a plan, it’s the same one he’s had for a dozen-and-a-half years). Anyway, the Brookside Dogs got off to a huge lead in Week One, only to watch the Sloth Monsters charge back on Monday Night. However, when the hay-dust cleared (from the white Grenada with the Yellow Canoe tied on top), the dogs edged Mukes by one, 35-34.

Wizards Finish One-TD Ahead of ‘Nauts

In another close game, Jeff Parks’ Pixie Dusters held off the Jugtown Juggernauts by a touchdown, 28-21. It was a vict’ry inspired not by the Wizards’ NFL coach (Jerry Glanville), or his college coach (Pat Dye), or his high school football coach (Ed Bruce), but by his GHS Rockets’ basketball coach Jimmy Armstong – whom The Wizard has tried to model his life after. The win give Parks a 1-0 start to the season, and it serves as quite a downer for A.E. who has to be thinking, “Heck, if I can’t beat the Wizards who can I beat, expect maybe the Slovaks.”

Topless Cheetahs Top Blitz

In other BDFL Week One action, the Riverchase Cheetahs appeared to be in mid-season form as they dismantled the Druid City Blitz, 36-17. “I was hoping it would be an A.W.,” said Butch. “But, I guess I’ll have to accept just a 19-point win in the first week of the season. Like Bama against Va. Tech, I didn’t want to show too much too early, even though that’s kind of against the overall policy at Sammy’s.”

Mayors Subdue Sleds

The Mean Machine did not have an answer for the newly elected Mayors in Week One. Politics aside, the Cronies were still benefiting from some “left over” campaign money in one of their selected shoe boxes, and they put it to good work against the working-class Power Sleds. Not even the home field advantage of the Dolo Dome could help Mad Jack, as his 2013 teams gets off to a slow start by falling to A.A., 30-18.

In case you missed it…

Honorary BDFLarian… Curt Jarvis tailgated with a quorum of BDFL regulars prior to the Bama - Virginia Tech game in Atlanta. The Best Fantasy League on the planet was represented by 1. The Commissioner, 2. The Defending Champ, 3. Bullet, 4. Woo, 5. Butch, 6. Dog, 7. Jack, and 8. Allyson (along with some Maxwells and other friends and family members).
