COMMISH FINDS IT QUITE HARD TO SAY GOODBYE TO YESTERDAY
ZERMATT (AP)—The 2007-08 WFBL season has long ended, but for WFBL staff and players around the League—notably Commissioner Barnes and his Concludings Champions Zermatt Abominables—the season wasn't officially over until yesterday. Dragged from all corners of the globe to meet in a mandatory assembly in WFBL Headquarters in Switzerland, Commissioner Barnes presented a captivating, notalgia-laced Senior Slide show, set to songs from top contemporary musicians such as Boyz II Men, Sarah McLachlan, and Teddy Pendergrass.
While everyone agreed that the tribute was a fitting way to end the season, some question its timing, as well as the choice of photos chosen.
"These things are always lame," opined Baron Davis of the Bayside Tigers, whose visage was nowhere to be found on the slide show. "It's always the popular kids and their friends that get included, and the rest of us get left out."
"Seriously! How many photos of Chris Paul and KG do we need?" asked a rhetorical Joe Johnson. "We get it! Zermatt won! Whoop-de-doo! Can we just get back to our summer vacations?"
"Summer vacation?!" asked the Commish. "There is no summer vacation! Summer vacations are what get people like Joe Johnson and the Rigby Trojans a last-place finish! Working hard during the off-season on slide shows is what wins championships!"
