Man, fuck those guys. The town of Winder, if you can call it that, is the shittiest shithole in the country (non-West Texas division.)

But that's for another thread.

 

Fixed.

 

Clearly, we will have to accommodate multiple division champions in this league. Who's the Norris Division winner? Zeke? Slappy? Your choices?

Poca Dots
Morgantown Mohigans
Madonna Blue Dons

 

I don't find that one that entertaining ... anymore. I suppose I'm just used to it since my high school was the Roosevelt Roughriders, too.

Of course, my senior year, our senior girls' shirts said "we ride 'em roughest." Yeah, we were surprised the administration let us wear them, too.
