PRESIDENT BUSH CONGRATULATES SLY CROOM, SOUTHEASTERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE COACH

PrintSly Croom managed to keep his mouth shut during his meeting with President Bush at the White House, therefore not killing our President with the sheer, unfiltered power of his Marlboro basso voice.
He did provide the opportunity for President Bush to get the name of the football conference wrong, however. (HT: John.)
I'm also proud to be here with another football coach who deserves a lot of credit, Sylvester Croom, who is the head football coach from Mississippi State University. His achievement is the first African American coach in the Southeastern Football League -- Southeastern Conference.
Okay, he caught it. But now tantalized by the concept of a "Southeastern Football League," we've already begun to think of new names for teams in this inchoate, developing semi-pro league.
The Columbia Stench
The Nashville Bore
The Memphis Shivs
The New Orleans Flood
Ah, the possibilities. We misunderestimated our president yet again. First, he survives a direct conversation with Sylvester Croom; second, he gives us an idea for the seven-on-seven flag football league. As befitting a man who once named his college intramurals team the "Nads" (so you'd have to say "Go, Nads!"), President Bush displays uncanny accidental vision in the field of sports. We're ready for the EDSBS interview when you are, sir.
President Bush, seen here with new mascot of the even newer Southeastern Football League, Flat Stanley.

All teams in newly formed leagues must have teams whose names are 95% irregular plurals, if not 100%. 66% of all expansion teams in any sport must also be irregular plurals.

You can argue about every other team name, but the Memphis Shivs is perfect.

Reminds me of the Saturday game in Gainesville I play whenever I’m home.
The White Trash Football League.
Touch tackling, but full-contact blocking. Soooo much fun :)

On a sidenote, I am pretty sure I dated Flat Stanley’s sister once.

Tony, I hope Miss Stanley at least had better fashion sense that Flat does.

- - I think the appropriate team for College Station would be the List-Eaters, no?

CHM, it’d be the Dothan Nutculears if the Chamber O’ Commerce had it’s way… and they’d play on Movie Gallery Field at Cochran Firm Stadium.
How about the Tuscaloosa Teabags?… wait, that was our flag football team’s name…

Surely it’d be the Shreveport Stench?
