The EBP Insider Report, Week 3

The EBP Insider Report, Week 3

Chaos, pandemonium, high crimes and misdemeanors are just a few words that describe this year’s season so far for the EBP.  They started the year with very high hopes, a solid draft lineup, excellent talent that was untouched by the injury bug.  The first game was a W but a squeaker to that lawless Bill Cosby team along with the unfortunate event on the side lines involving the EBP cheer squad, and an ongoing criminal investigation.  Week two was derailed by a wrong turn in the depths of Trey City that resulted in a kidnapping and a devastating loss as well as a total loss of the EBP team bus.  Despite these tumultuous first two week of the PSA Rifle Crew season the EBP club was upbeat and ready to play the Lead Slingers in a home game back at Graceland stadium.  They picked up some surprisingly good talent from free agency before the game and were favored by almost 20 points prior to kickoff.  Unlike the first two games, the Lead Slingers appeared to be a legit team with morals and sportsmanship.  The EBP squad was soundly beaten and out coached in a not so close game.  This devastating loss was the reason the GM placed a gag order on the entire organization in regards to talking to the media.  Rumors are abound that Elvis may be on the way out as the GM is interviewing new replacement coaches in the event the season continues to slide into the abyss.

Rumors have it that there have been at least three interviews for the head coaching position.  Of course none of this is official and strictly rumor but Gene Simmons was seen leaving in a limo behind the clubhouse after about an hour in the GM’s office while the EBP was at practice this week.  If I were a betting man, Gene Simmons could take Elvis by the 2nd round in any format death match.  That kind of talent is hard to resist for a win hungry GM!

Tony Stewart is the second front runner since announcing his upcoming retirement from driving a race car.  Not really sure how good of a marriage this would be, but the rumor mill is he is looking for a new sport where it is legal to run over people.  Those anger management issues are sure a selling point for a struggling football team looking for a winning season.  Tony received a text message from the GM just this week and some suspect that was the reason Tony has decided to hang up his racing career to pursue a new field of study.  No one knows for sure how many times Tony and the EBP GM have spoken prior.

The third and last possible replacement is Jeb Bush.  They say that politics is like Hollywood for ugly people, that being the case, Jeb might just fit the bill.  Without a win streak in politics and a dismal prospect for this election cycle, and a family history of being involved with professional sports teams he does seem qualified.  The GM was seen in Crawford TX this week immediately after the bitter loss.   Initial rumors were he was drinking and watching the game with “W” and was in town for a standard halftime beer run.  When birds of a different feather start flocking together the poperrotzis start digging deeper to uncover the dirt.  It was discovered that Jeb flew in to meet with the GM and everyone knows it wasn’t to support his campaign for president, so you be the judge. 

Maybe after this week the gag order will be lifted and Elvis can keep his job with a win over Carlos’s dangerous team this weekend.  It is very clear however that Elvis is on the hot seat and we are only 3 weeks into the season.  (yes…yes… we all know Chip Kelly is to, but don’t count on it)  Fantasy Football is a nasty business and if Elvis can’t pull it together, maybe Gene or one of these other contenders can……a win is a win is a win!
