Grenadiers get one in a row The Bomb Squad dropped the big one on the Mayors to finally move into the "W" column for the first time all year VOID - Old Iron Hand is finally glad that most of his comparisons with the Fighting Slovaks are over. The Mineral Springs Grenadiers won a game for the first time this season. This weekend, the Commish topped the Magic City Mayors, 36-24. Apparently, Richard “Dick” Arrington and Larry “Lowrey” Langford (and the actual Magic City Mayor) had to go to Grambling, LA, to get the Tigers back in action in the SWAC. The boycott finally ended after the Collective Mayors negotiated new contracts with Chester’s Chicken (in lieu of Chick-Fil-A, KFC, Zaxby’s, and Church's – who would not meet the players’ demands). So, even though the BDFL’s Mayors lost to the Grenadiers, they can now turn their full attention to the remainder of the fantasy football season, and the upcoming Magic City Classic at Legion Field. |

Still Winless After Seven Weeks: The Fighting Slovaks are still winless after 7-Weeks of BDFL action. Now, however, they are the only team in the league without a vict’ry. If that doesn’t surprise you, well, it shouldn’t. They are traditionally the worst team in the BDFL, and after this year’s Miller Genuine Draft, you could easily see why. In Week 7, the Slovaks fell to the Western Hills Wildcats. And, “fell” is a polite term, as the Slovaks were actually given a complete and total A.W. by the “James Gang,” with the final score reading, 49-16.
Nauts Stomp Blanks: At the newly named, “Mac Champion Field at Rebel Stadium” in Hayneville, Alabama, the Benton Bullets came out “shooting blanks” again, and suffered another A.W. – this one at the hands of the suddenly hot Jugtown Juggernauts – by the final score of 34-6. Allyson’s Nauts are now 5-2 on the season, and she has a chance this season to escape the vile, and evil clutches of the dreaded Null Set Club. As for the Bullets, they are so bad that it doesn’t appear that the Supplemental Draft will be able to help them. “What we need,” said Bullet, “is to have some more games scheduled with the Slovaks.” (That’s the only team the Bullerino has defeated in 2013.)
Dillos Dump Cheetahs: The Riverchase Cheetahs were un-ceremoniously knocked off the lead horse of the Sin Wagon in Week 7. The team doing the damage (one-point short of an A.W.) was the Duncanville Armadillos, 31-11. Both of the teams agreed to leave Charlotte and Sammy’s and play their game on Sunday afternoon on the Quad, where the Dillos have been regulars this season, along with their close-personal-friend, Bucket. “Put it this way,” said a victorious K.P., “We had some surprises ready for the 4-time BDFL-Champion Cheetahs.” Musta worked. Butch Neal’s team fall to 5-2 on the season, leaving only one team with just one loss this season.
Sloths Slip – Lose Grip on the Road: …and that team is the Pasco County Wizards of Tampa, F-L-A. Yep, Parks’ “no-show Jones” attitude is starting to pay dividends in the BDFL. The Wizards are the only 6-1 team in the league. The ex-NFL Tight End – who couldn’t hold onto Warren Moon’s bullets with the old Houston Oilers – has found a way to pick up some “close wins” this season in the BDFL. The Pixie Dusters held on to edge the Three Toed Tree Dwellers in Week 7, by the final score of 23-22. The story was eerily similar for the Sloths (for both this season and Mukes’ career) “they just couldn’t hold on.” Everyone knows that is hard to do for the franchise that has no plausible thumbs.
Blitz Craps Out Against the Gamblers: The Fritz Blitz had a chance to move to 6-1 on the season, like the Wizards, but they choked at “crunch time” against the Dixie Mafia. The Druid City Blitz has a low point total, but they’ve been able to win a number of close games in 2013 in the BDFL. However, in Week 7, it was not-to-be for the ‘Host with the Most.’ The Gamblers edged the Blitz 27-23 in a back-and-forth contest. Meanwhile, the Riverboat Gamblers now lead the Rugged Red Neck Division by a comfortable “point-total” margin, and are 5-2 on the season (just like the Blitz).
Dogs Whip Woo: One of the traditional stalwarts of the aforementioned Red Neck Division – the Smoke Rise Woosiers – were embarrassed in Week 7 by the Brookside Dogs. Mark’s Mutts whipped the Woo Crew 22-9 on the road at one of the many Hayden hay fields. The Dogs moved to a very respectable 5-2 on the season, while the Woosiers dropped below .500.
Wooden Warriors Edge the Sleds: In an evenly-matched and hard-fought game at the Dolodome on Sunday afternoon, the Black Creek Wooden Warriors and the Fairfield PowerSleds went at it for four quarters. When the smoke finally cleared from the nearby Fairfield furnaces, and the ears stopped bleeding from the constant Heavy Metal blaring, the Tribe had managed to scalp the Mean Machine, 24-22, in a game matching teams that were previously 3-3, and leading the “Total Points” category in their respective Divisions.
In case you missed it… The BDFL had an impromptu meeting on Saturday night, at halftime of the Alabama-Arkansas game, at the top of the spiral at Bryant-Denny Stadium. The Commissioner, Bullet, Dog, Butch, Jack, and Allyson were in attendance. Jaimie, Alan and Kurt Prewitt were in attendance at the game, but apparently had such good seats, that they couldn’t make it to the upper deck. The only order of business at the short meeting was a unanimous (yet unofficial) vote that the Slovaks Still Suck. |
