| COMMISH BELL SPEAKS ABOUT TIES |
"We had a little problem," Commish Bell said, "The game ended in a tie. The tiebreaker system on ESPN had yet to be used/paid attention to. Whew, doggie. Did I get an earful!"
Most of that came from Rainier Valley Felons coach Jason Harber.
"Somehow we had a loss, in a TIED game. It was surreal. I had my people talking to the league right away."
Commish Bell called the meeting to order, and in typical Seattle Blue Ribbon style, only 8 of 12 teams voted...AND the vote ended in a tie.
"I got shit to do. Ties are it," Bell announced to the media.
But then, in a baffling move, the Elias Sports Bureau, while rechecking the stats from the weekend, found an anomaly. They realized that Felons DB Lawyer Malloy actally had 2 sacks in his game, not 1 as was listed. This change gave the Felons 4 points...and the Win.
"I am not sure how the hell it happened," Harber said, "We will take it though. The Fluff are a damn good team, so to get a win against them....we will take that however we can get it."
The win is now in the standings, and the game goes down as the GAME OF THE YEAR thus far in the Blue Ribbon League.
The Felons (6-0) will look to keep their win streak alive (11 games in a row so far) as they head to Ballard to play the Kittens (2-4). The Kittens are on a winning streak as well, after snatching wins in conference games the last two weeks.
NOT IN ATTENDANCE AT LEAGUE MEETING:
- Trick Danneker. Excused from meeting because the League acknowledged it wouldn't listen to him anyway.
- Ben Holicky. Excused from meeting because he is in Colorado working out a potential deal with Coors Light to become League sponsor in 2011.
- Jeff Pierson. Excused because everyone is a little afraid of Jeff this year. His team is performing well, and he seems like a mastermind.
- Andrew Miller. "What? A meeting?" Miller sent in his vote via carrier pigeon.
-Zach Gaul. Excused from the meeting, as he typically uses Tuesday-Sunday to retire.
