First Loss Handed to Team by "New" Superstar...

Ft Over Tailgators received their first loss of the season Wednesday night. The team was apparently cursed by the arrival of their new uniforms. The Fresh, Blood Red, Tailgators sponsored Uniforms looked good on the team, too bad the team didn’t look good in them. The team started off as cold as the Marion, Iowa Ice. No one on the team could seem to find a rhythm and the Dream Team Rejects ran out to an early lead that they never would relinquish. What was so embarrassing for the team is that they were schooled Dream Team Rejects front man to now only to be known as “Mr. Magoo”.

Magoo, a 52 year old man, ran up and down the court and fired three point baskets with reckless abandon. The 52 year old man refused to ever sub out of the game just to prove to the much younger Tailgators edition squad that he was in better shape than all of them combined. Magoo scored 36 points in the game and was 10 for 12 from behind the arc. “We tried everything to stop him, we switched defenders, we fouled him on every shot and it still didn’t matter” JR Russell said after the game. JR was Mr. Maggo’s primary defender, but it didn’t matter who the team put on him, he used and abused them like a .50 cent hooker.

As Mr. Magoo was running up and down the floor talking trash to the 6Ft Over Tailgators bench, Justin Hasenmiller pointed out that when Magoo was his age, there was no 3-point shot. It is amazing Magoo was able to hone in such a skill seeing he has only had the last half of his life to work on it. Manger Aaron Shupert and Hasenmiller spent the entire second half on the bench just watching the barrage from Mr. Magoo. “I don’t even want to go in and be embarrassed my him”, Shupert told Hasenmiller during the second half.

As the team left the stadium dejected from their first loss, Magoo, surrounded by his teammates just looked back smiling and gave the losers a wink. There is no doubt that 6Ft Over Tailgators has not scene the last of him. Luckily for the team, Magoo’s lifespan has almost been reached so there are only a limited amount of years they will have to worry about it.
