Mandalorians Coach Luke Brand has granted an exclusive statement to The Cleveland Mandalorians Radio Network, and I had the pleasure of sitting down with him at Manda'alor Sports Bar, located in the Temple of Doom.
Brand had one thing on his mind: Recent rumors of a rivalry between himself and Coach Sonny Fontenot of the Footbrawlers.
"It's a damn crock'o shit, is what it is." said Brand. "Some halfass writer who probably got his ass fired from writin' th' National Enquirer's horoscope section writes up some crap about Fontenot lookin' fer payback on me fer th' draft, an' suddenly I got Fontenot up my shebs, sayin' I said there was some kinda damn rivalry. That's about 30 pounds 'a shit in a 20 pound bag. Only thing I ever said was that Sonny was kinda givin' me th' evil eye at th' draft after I picked up Hai. Even Fontenot said he, an' I quote, "expressed some disappointment" ta me.
Now Fontenot wants people ta' think I phone in my coachin' an' rely on luck. Well, I don't. I'm at every damn game. Y'all want a coach who phones it in, look at Spangler. I don't think that barve's ever even seen th' inside of an SFL stadium, but somehow his boys all have damn Chili Bowl rings."
Coach Brand was, of course, referring to the never-seen Coach Dr. Spangler of the Chili Bowl II Champion Ghostbusters.
For further developments on this story, and what effect, if any, this issue may have on the Mandos' upcoming home game against Sonny Fontenot's Footbrawlers, stay tuned to the Cleveland Mandalorians Radio Network.

After skipping the scheduled post-game press conference after the Mandalorians embarrassed the Footbrawlers 44-14, and then being completely dismantled by the Cadavers 43=7, Footbrawler Head Coach Sonny Fontenot finally talked to the media about the team's recent mini-slump...
"That game vs. the Mandos was partially my fault, and partially the players fault. I probably should've kept my fucking mouth shut about what I perceived to be the birth of a rivalry with the Mandos. More than anything, it was intended to get the players fired up about the game, and it backfired on me. The players bought into the hype the wrong way, and went into that game thinking they were King Shit, only to be reduced to a pile of shit. At halftime of that game, I was thisclose to pulling a page from Mike Singletary's halftime pep talk playbook by dropping trou and demonstrating how bad we were getting our ass blistered. IO figured they were mortified enough by the score itself without me having to do that."
"I will say one thing though, I have a feeling there's something 'extra-special' in the Gatorade theyre serving on the sideline. The way they came out and picked off Alvey's first two passes for INT TD's was just unreal. No one's ever done that to the Footbrawlers. I can't prove anything, but if that's the way they have to roll to win games, then so be it."
Quite the strong accusation coming from Fontenot, without really making an official accusation. This reporter doubts the commissioner will investigate these claims, but we will let you know if any of the allegations warrant consideration from the SFL bigwigs.
When asked if there was anything to the rivalry rumors, Fontenot responded with, " After everything has been said and done, the rivalry thing kind of gets talked about in the media, and they make what they want of it in order to have something to print. The rivalry kind of just presents itself in the fact that the Footbrawlers will not let that happen next season, if we get a chance to play them."
