That’s right folks 6 Ft Over has sold out and gone corporate! Otis’ Tailgators Sports Bar on Center Point Rd has secured exclusive naming rights by agreeing to sponsor the club in this winter’s YMCA league. The official Tailgators logo will now appear on all 6 Ft Over apparel and from now on the team must be referred to in print and in speech as “6 Ft Over presented by Tailgators”. The popularity of the blog and a recent winning streak have made 6 Ft Over presented by Tailgators a hot commodity.
It’s no coincidence that 6 Ft Over presented by Tailgators has started winning again after adding point guard of the future and present JR Russell. Russell has brought ball handling, speed and leadership to the floor. The team no longer has to rely on Reiners’ inconsistent jump shot, Shupert’s out of control drives or Justin’s forays into the paint for scoring. JR is able to create his own shot and good shots for teammates with relative ease. He also holds a position as a bartender at Tailgators that may or may not have had something to do with the sponsorship agreement.
Last night, armed with an actual athletic basketball player, 6 Ft Over presented by Tailgators defeated team “Winterns” with relative ease. “Winterns” featured 4 interns at Aegon who will soon surpass the combined salaries of Reiners and Hasenmiller upon their hire. They may be actuaries in the office, but on the floor they were a bit overmatched by a glorified telemarketer and a data entry clerk.
6 Ft Over presented by Tailgators has won 7 of 9 to finish the regular season but finds themselves on the outside looking in when it comes to the playoffs. Only the top 4 seeds qualify and 6 Ft Over presented by Tailgators will finish no higher than 6th. A season that appeared to be lost was salvaged by the late season run. The team looks forward to next year and reminds you to check out Otis’ Tailgators Sports Bar for $3 tall boy Wednesdays and Lady’s drink free Thursday’s. This Friday a local CR band will be playing live! The music may sound like two steel trash can lids banging together and a man with a horse voice screaming into a microphone but come on down and enjoy your night at Tailgators Sports Bar!
