The WORM Hole

Recap of former Liberty players in the NFL Week 5 | A Sea of Red

Rookie WR-DeMario Douglas was the last "Dark Horse" to enter through the 2026 WORM Hole

The 2026 WORM Hole has officially closed

AUDUBON PLACE - The BDFL's patented WORM Rule has offically closed for the 2026 BDFL season. WORM is an acronym for the league's Week's One Roster Move which is open to each team from Week 3 through Week 9 to drop and add one player per week during the regular season. This gave each team seven possible roster moves during the season which is half a roster of player moves and more than plenty to improve your lot in the league. We started the WORM transactions prior to the Week 3 match-ups with the mindset being, you got to pay for a little bad luck and bad draft decisions to be fair to the rest of the league. The Magic City Mayors have been the most active team to utilize the WORM Rule the last five seasons and have two titles within this span. The Mayors are now the poster child for the WORM Rule. This season (2026) there was a ton of value found in the ol' proverbial "Worm Hole" with the likes of Gordon, Douglas, Carlson, Kmet, Coker, Stevens, Zvada, Lloyd, Gesicki, Likely, Sanders, Miller, Bateman, McCarthy, Metchie, Pierce, Fannin, Freiermuth and others all coming into the league during the regular season to help contribute to BDFL rosters via the WORM Rule.  Congratulations to those who used the WORM rule to thier advantage this season, it is just another way the BDFL has innovated the fantasy football world for the better.

THE BDFL NEWS

2076

The Grenadiers competed as the Rome Gladiators in Week 6 of the BDFL's annual Throwback Week

Throwback Week went back to the future

AUDUBON PLACEIn 2026, the BDFL went a "Back to the Future" in a 1981 DMC DeLorean to 2076 to celebrate the country's tricentennial and take a glimpse at an expanded NFL consisting of a whopping 48 teams. Within the next 50 years, the NFL is predicted to be in 16 new markets and four new divisions. During the 2026 season, each BDFL team represened one of these new NFL clubs and competed against each other in Week 6. In a Polaroid snapshot of 2076, U.S. "video" markets have continued to merge (San Antonio/Austin, Sacramento/Stockton/Modesto, etc.) leading to more statewide and regional team names similar to Arizona, New England, Tennessee, Minnesota in today's game. Acceptance of American football has continued to grow in neighboring countries, overseas and into the Pacific Rim. Fifty years prior, each BDFL represented one of these future NFL clubs and competed against each other in Week 6 of the 2026 BDFL season. BDFL team assignments included Texas Toros (Armadillos), Alabama Hammers (Vulcans), Memphis Jungle Kings (Mayors), Florida Renegades (PowerSleds), St. Louis Spirit (Cheetahs), San Diego Seals (Sloth Monsters), Oklahoma Outlaws (Bullets), Hawaii Voyagers (Bandits), Utah Blizzard (Wildcats), Sacramento Swarm (Freebirds), Quebec Acadians (Gamblers), Mexico City Matadors (Bellcows), Berlin Blitzkrieg (Blitz), Rome Gladiators (Grenadiers), London Monarchs (Juggernauts) and Barcelona Dragons (Dogs). For Throwback Week 2027, the BDFL is exploring an ideal NFL where the oldies like the Baltimore Colts, Houston Oilers, Oakland Raidiers, San Diego Chargers and St. Louis Cardinals still play along side original franchises in Indianapolis, Phoenix, Nashville and Las Vegas. Throw in timely mergers over the years with more organic domestic and international expansion and you have the "Ideal NFL". For Throwback Week 2027, the BDFL will be fixing all the franchise moves, expansion, team nicknames and all the other strategic mistakes that professional football has made since 1960.
