From underneath a rock in Media Void

THE BULLETIN 2015

Living under a rock - It is to be a person who lives in isolation from and has limited knowledge of what is happening in the world around them. Used to describe an ignorant or obtuse person. Usually someone who lives in the basement of their mother's house.

 

Media Void - A ficticious city in a ficticious country which is free from all types of media and information. Where everybody in the city/state wanders aimlessly around uninformed about everything from the news, to weather, sports and politics.

 

The BDFL was well represented at the 2014 SEC Football Championship Game in Atlanta, Georgia


The Bulletin - Week 9 Another year with more of the same endless babble (or HDBS)

It’s time for the 21st Annual Tribute to Molly Hatchet.

 

Beatin’ the Odds – Gamblers Roll Dice and Lose vs. Woo Crew:

“The heck with peaking too soon,” screamed a fan in the harem of the Smoke Rise Woosiers. The Hayden Haymakers continue to throw big overhand rights, and big touchdowns in the Big Daddy Football League. The Woo Crew is now over 340-total points in the BDFL with the next best team still below 300. That’s a huge lead for Tommy T. In Week Nine, Tommy T. visited T-Town, the Quad, Ferguson Center and then proceeded to outscore the Gamblers on Sunday in a slugfest, 45-43. The Dixie Mafia may have been playing with house money, but they certainly didn’t know when to walk away or know when to run against the Woosiers. At any rate, Kenny Breal can be pleased with his team playing a little better - even in defeat. “We were gambling with their souls. We were playing to win. We were beatin’ the odds again.”

 

Gator Country – Nauts Invade Florida, Escape with a W:

In a week with no A.W.’s in the BDFL, the Jugtown Juggernauts were happy just to escape Gator County (a little bit of that Chomp, Chomp) with a 10-point vict’ry over the Pasco County Wizards. Fueled by cold corndogs ripped from decorations hanging from a canopy in the quad; the ‘Nauts roared into Tampa Town on Sunday afternoon, and withstood the Wizards. Getting beaten by a girl is really nothing new for Merlin and his Minions. He will now go to Hogwarts and learn from the crystal ball and tea leaves how to possible save face and save his season.

 

Whiskey Man – Sloths Monster Mash the Mean Machine:

You have your highs. You have your lows. But, no one knows which way to go. Whiskey Man, don’t you play that hymn too long.” The Sloth Monsters certainly had a high this weekend with a hard-fought, 42-37 win against the Fairfield PowerSleds. And, although Jack Slovensky was certainly proud of his purple tigers for putting up a good fight against the Three Toed Tree Dwelllers, it was still a low to have to take back a big “L” to his Metal Maniacs in and around the furnaces of Southern Electric Steel. The PowerSleds can take a little comfort also in their overall second place in Total Points in the BDFL with 298 through 9½ weeks.

 

Flirtin’ With Disaster – Bullets Kiltige Slovaks:

Well, one week after blasting the BDFL Commissioner and the Dreaded Schedule Maker, the Benton Bullets are singing their praises. The schedule for Week 9 rolled up a match-up for the Bullets against the Oak Mountain Fightin’ Slovaks. “That’s always a good thing,” said Bullerino after his Benton Boys destroyed Cousin Adam, 24-8. “Thanks to the Dreaded Schedule Maker,” continued Bullet, “because I would’ve lost to 8-other teams this weekend.” Meanwhile, the Slovaks staggered back home contemplating yet another season that could see them close out in the Big Mullet Series (BMS). “Bop, bop, bop, Yeah!”

 

Bounty Hunter – Blitz Buries Cronies in Birmingham:

My horse is kicking dust up off the trail.

I just got back from a trip to hell.

Six-gun, she’s strapped by my side.

‘Thunder’ is the horse I ride.

And, it seems to me this is one hell of a way for a man like me to earn my pay.

Outlaws on the loose… running, running from the noose.”

Who cares about the BDFL game… “I’m a Bounty Hunter. I’ll hunt you down.” The Druid City Blitz bounded into Birmingham and took care of business, beating the Magic City Mayors, 22-13.

 

Jukin’ City – Dogs Bite Wooden Warriors:

I think I was about 17 when my Pappy said to me. ‘Come on now with me, Son, going to take you to Jukin' City. You can stomp your foots around, to a pickin' country band. I'm gonna buy you all the Jack Black, that you can surely stand.” It sounds more like Brookside (Jukin’ City – that is) than the Reservation at Black Creek. However, the rest of the song chronicles trouble for the father and son when they encounter some less-than-southern belles, and more importantly their husbands/boyfriends. What’s that got to do with a BDFL game? Absolutely nothing. But, like we said before… it’s a tribute to Molly Hatchet.

 

Kinda Like Love, but it’s not – Commish Outscores Cheetahs:

It’s kinda like the moves you used to make, but you don’t remember.” The Mineral Springs Grenadiers made a big move in Week Nine in a pivotal Grey Beard Division game, and defeated the Southside Cheetahs, 33-25. To be honest, the Sin Wagon didn’t really have their hearts in it on Sunday. They were still celebrating Bama’s big win in T-Town over the Mad Hatter and his wanna-be Bengal Tigers.

 

Trust Your Old Friend – Prewitt Gets Texas-Sized Win over Wildcats, 21-8:

The Western Hills Wildcats won the “Toilet Seat Team of the Weak” award, despite scoring the same number of points as the Fightin’ Slovaks (8). What gives? Looks like a league bias against the Mildcats, or maybe just trying to “spread the wealth,” as the Slovaks have captured that award more times than the Bulletin can count. At any rate, the big vict’ry – coming on the heels of Bama’s win over LSwho – was a welcome event for K.P. and his Duncanville ‘Dillos. The old, number-7, left-handed, slight-slugger, celebrated by driving the 8-hours back to Marvin, N.C., where he’s thinking about interviewing as a SEC Network announcer/analyst for taped-delayed baseball games this spring.

 

Jr. BDFL Update:

The Fultondale Renegades continue to cruise. After scoring a Jr. BDFL record 87-points in Week 8, then 57 last week, Kevin Hand’s team notched 58 in Week 9 to win again, and maintain the overall points lead in the Jr. BDFL.
