Mushers Already On Wrong Foot

September 7, 2006

If things go as badly for the U. of Mammoth Mushers as they did this past week, there is no hope for the football season at all.

The Mushers, who lead the NCAA in wins by forfeit but who have never actually won a game, scheduled their pre-season Kickoff Dinner at their usual place, Berger's, only to find that Berger's is closed, shut down, sold and, at best, a memory.

"The team was looking forward to the buffalo burgers," sighed coach Ronald "Bigs" LaBlash. "That, and the half-orders of fries."

LaBlash said the team is undaunted, however, and is looking forward to the season, which opens on Saturday afternoon.

He also said the team is considering wearing black armbands this season with a representation of a Berger's buffalo burger printed on it.

"Sure will miss those fries," he said.
