Da Blitz wins without glitz Pitiful week sees three teams score in single-digits, and the Slovaks and Grenadiers push the “awful envelope” to a staggering 0-6 each, as they remain painfully WINLESS MEDIA VOID - One of the teams that L.A. used to throttle back in the old days (Tuscaloosa Academy), is watching one of their alumnae experience a resurgence this season. The Druid City Blitz has moved to 5-1 on the season, and they may actually be a contender this year. Now, Fritz will be the first to tell you that it is all about "The Process", and that he would like to see his team’s point total a little higher (last – at present – in the Yellow Hammer, but the Blitz is in seemingly uncharted territory – for them – and that’s in a contender instead of a pretender spot, almost half way through the season. The Woodies – who lost to the Blitz – have a mediocre 3-3 record but are the top point team in the league. The defending champs have to be sweating under their head-dress, worrying about missing the Big Dance with a losing record. |

Still Winless: Part 1 At least the “winless” Mineral Springs Grenadiers put up a fight. At least the Commissioner’s team fought to the end and forced overtime, on the road, against the Fairfield PowerSleds. At least they blocked their man. But in the end, it was the same, sorry, result for the Commissioner in Weak Six, as the Grenadiers lost again. Reportedly, old Iron is dropping f-bombs like it was draft night, and dog-cussing the schedule-maker in a week where his Gut Grenades would have cleaned up at the late-night Krystal’s and beaten eleven other BDFL teams. Meanwhile, the Mean Machine will take the vict’ry and keep marching toward a potential playoff scenario and a match-up with the San Quentin Guards (or is it Folsom).
Still Winless: Part 2 The Bulletin can’t say that it hasn’t been fun beating up on the Slovaks this season. But, it is starting to get old. Come on ASlo… win a game for (Uncle) Pete’s sake. The EuroTrash Talkers continue to lose at a record-breaking rate – even for themselves – and set a mark of futility that may never be equaled in any Fantasy Football League at any online source (CBS, NFL Network, ESPN*) known to man. This is getting to be ridiculous. In Weak Six, the Slovaks were defeated by arch-nemesis – The Wizard – by a touchdown. The Pixie Dusters have really benefited from a “soft” schedule and are now 5-1 on the season, with a paltry point-total. *Note: These nationwide “minor” leagues can’t hold a candle to the BDFL. None feature WARTS, Iron Hand, or the award-winning Bulletin.
“Naut Bad” In the biggest A.W. of the weekend, the Jugtown Juggernauts slammed the Sloth Monsters 56-27 in a much-anticipated match-up at Ed Bruce Field at Rocket Stadium. The Nauts – looking like Hueytown – took out Mukes’ knees in the early going, and then cruised past the Three Toed Tree Dwellers, which according to 2nd grader, Milton Hand, are “one of the slowest animals.” The boy knows his science (and Legos). A.E. looks to have a real contender this season, as she tries to break from the uncomfortable confines of the Null Set Club.
Woo Crew Clubs Bullets: Speaking of “clubs,” the Bullets got clubbed like a bunch of baby seals this weekend. Tommy T. was swinging the night stick and bashing the hapless Benton Bullets into total and complete submission. This one was never close. The Bullets got three from Shady Brady, and one from Janikowski for a grand total of 4-points. It was a bludgeoning of epic proportions in what is usually the jeweled, bespangled match-up of the Rugged Red Neck Division. The final score at Rebel Stadium was 36-4. By the way, they renamed the field at Hayneville to “Mac Champion Field at Rebel Stadium,” with past Lowndes Academy stalwarts Jim Mason, Dave Lyon, John Causey, and Preston Gothard in attendance.
Dixie Mafia Downs Dillos: Who is 2nd in the “point total” category? How about the Gulf Coast Gamblers, who moved to 4-2 on the season with a big win, at home, against the Duncanville Armadillos (now 2-4). The Dixie Mafia have it rolling in 2013. Whether it’s the Grand, or the Beau Rivage, or the Municipal Park at Biloxi, the Gamblers are hard to beat (at least this season) on the Gulf Coast in one of their Class B, ASSSA-sanctioned, shoe box tournaments. Let’s see if they can keep it up and re-live their early BDFL-hist’ry as a championship-caliber team.
Five Points… 5-points, Seriously (Part 1) Jerry James’ Mildcats ventured away from Five Points West this weekend and were attacked by the Brookside Dogs, 15-5. But the headlines in this one (and the next one) was the complete Bonehead moves by the coach. The Mildcats scored an embarrassing 5-points and left a lot of points on the bench, and got whipped by Marks Mutts in the process.
Five Points… 5-points, Seriously (Part 2) Not far from Five Points South, the Riverchase Cheetahs were embarrassed by scoring only 5-points, and embarrassed by the Magic City Mayors. Butch had some Bonehead moves of his own in a bad Weak Six for the Sin Wagon, several other teams, the Bulletin, and the BDFL as a whole. In the immortal words of (Uncle) Ray Fields, along the sideline in a Metro Game, “You better tighten up, or there’s gonna be a layoff.”
In case you missed it… and, we did… The Commissioner made an appearance on Friday Night at Rocket Stadium (along with Chris Orazine – and others) for some kind of Gardendale Hall of Fame deal. My invitation musta got lost in the mail. |
