GBS non-sportscast & the Great Ice Storm of 2008

Hey kids,

I had a huge Sportscast planned this week to celebrate the upcoming Superbowl between the Slackers and BLS, but Mother Nature is a Bitch. As you've probably read in the papers or seen on the news, or in the case of J Mo, Chase, The Ricker, Kaylee Bailey, and the Commish, experienced; North Central Massachusetts has been without power since last Thursday night- 8 days as you're reading this. Some of us are at the relatives, and Chase and I drove 160 miles last Sunday to buy generators which have been running 24-7 since then to power up the basics. My internet is down, so I have no way of posting a sportscast if I could. This email will have to suffice.

Well we have a great matchup, #1 BLS vs #2 Slackers.

Lance, after 5 seasons of humility, managed to make it to last year's bowl, coming up just short, but he picked up where he left off last season with a 13-2 run to make it to this years dance. He could be the team with the most dominant season in GBS history, but if last year's Patriots told us anything, you gotta win the big one or it don't count.

Shane's Slackers, the 2005 GBS champions, are looking to be the second team in GBS history to win the title for the second time.

Good luck to both Lance Hoffman and Shane English, two of the original 6, and may the best man win.

We will be back next week with the results. Happy Hannukah to you, hope your holidays are merry & bright.

We Been Sabotahjeed

Well apparently FOX sports has decided to get into a spitting match with GBS Sports. They have blocked the week 10 sportscast because of copyright infringement. I guess the Public Service Announcement we ran was actually theirs. Oops! We of course will either fight this to the highest court, or find a sneaky way around it. In any case, if you haven't seen the video, we are working to repost it on this site. In the meantime, I've contacted my attorney at Dewey, Cheatem, and Howe to look into this fro us. Below is the letter I got from youtube:
