Cutters Drop Another One
Wake Forest 50, DIAMOND CUTTERS
27
Monday nights matchup saw blinged-out
superstars the Diamond Cutters put together a losing streak,
something unheard of for the team since back in season 2001-02.
The Cutters were only able to field two members of the
championship-winning side from last season, in new-look Dave
and all-round nice guy Yoch. On 7-day contracts this week were
Stephen Cooper and extensions were given to Josh and Rob.
The five-man Cutters, who have never
beaten the boys from Wake Forest, were unprepared for the
onslaught of dirty play, arsey shot-making and overweight defense.
Indeed, the chubby Forests got the job done both in the points and
fouls columns. The Cutters were led by Lil' Dynamo Josh with 10,
Johan "Big Cap" Van Leeuwen had 7, Steve "Erkel" Cooper dropped 5
and had 100 rebounds to boot, Rob had 3 and Nu-Dave 2. This enormous
scoring onslaught by the Cutters was however not enough to match the
plump Forests pound for pound, coughing up the L, 27-50.
Big money 4-man Scotty was unable to
suit up due to a sudden un-identified illness, much like his NBA
hero Alonzo. In this case however, Scotty's affliction is more
likely to be "Alcohol Poisoning" rather than "Kidney Failure".
Tim also took
another a week off, this time holidaying
with his wench in country Victoria. Tim was photographed
earlier this week Cubic-Zirconia shopping, and rumours have once
again begun to circulate in the Cutters media.
Kep was out due to a nasty purple ankle
sprain he received at the hands of Yochem at a midweek practice
punch-on.
Ben's European tour has been a
successful one, making the German All-Star game (as far as we can
gather) without even playing in the league. He has expressed his
hunger to get back to the #1 league in the World, Mars, and ball for
the Cutters.
Jason Wong, still on the Cutters
chillin' list, is advising Mitchell & Ness of how he can best
represent in the new throwbacks.
The present may be bleak, but the
future could still see the Cutters playing in March if the
individual superstars of the team remember that there is no "I" in
"Team".
I'm out like the ball on a Tim baseline
drive.
