BREAKING NEWS - JACKO OUT!

The board has finally lost their patience with Fulham's Michael Jackson Statue. The club legend has been sacked as title defense has turned into relegation battle. We would like to offer our sincere thanks to Fulham's Michael Jackson Statue for his years of service to our club, including the unforgettable title run last season. It is with heavy hearts that we made the decision we feel is best for the future. We obviously wish him good luck in his future fantasy soccer endeavors. Sources confirm that Sam Allardyce was the top replacement target to lead them through the relegation battle. Unfortunately, West Brom won the battle for his services.  Instead, familiar face Ed Bighead has been brought on as interim team name. The reports are true, we did try and get Big Sam. When he chose to go elsewhere, we were lucky enough to find someone with an even larger head. We are excited to begin the era of Mr. Bighead's Re

Morris did finish it, and at the film's premiere in Berkeley, Herzog indeed boiled and ate his shoe. This actually happened How does this relate to Dude Fiesta? The awards will explain

Good Morning  Afternoon! Apologies for the late release. Your dear friend and humble narrator spent more time this week at the negotiating table than the keyboard. By Friday night I was feeling like Brian Burke looks after the NHL draft. Burke at the 2016 draft: He probably just traded a pick and a prospect for another inch of hairline advance. Sad he retired before he could fill his entire forehead with hair After a hectic Thursday that saw over half the teams in the league involved in trade talks, my sources tell me that the reps for Jacko, Lampard's Lads, and Virgil's Big Fucked ACL went to bed with a handshake deal in place for a 6-player, 3-team trade. All that was left to do was sleep off the beers (important part of negotiating), and confirm the trade. Thriving in the chaos. Breathing it in. Cut to 8:30am Friday: a flash of lightning, a clap of thunder and a trade proposal sent to  Fulham's MJ Statue.  And they call Claud
