Ever since stud sophomore running back Mike McLeod and quarterback Matt Polhemus got picked up by the po-po for fighting some hockey players, the Bulldogs are 3-0 and seem blessed. Two straight overtime wins suggest the protection of a friendly wizard but his magic might run out. Your defense is suspect...

...security of others because his mother didn’t hug him enough. And always wear a condom when swimming. You never know. RR: They actually give out condoms for free here. PM: Is that because you’re there and you’re such a stud? RR: Absolutely. PM: Are pregnancies down because of the free condoms? RR: Well I haven’t gotten anybody pregnant.
