Falwell Dead; Moral Majority Dwindles By 1

In an exciting twist of what has turned out to be an unimaginably lopsided season, Ewing Oil attempted to take out an insurance policy on Falwell -- a 58th round draft pick -- when news reports indicated he had been rushed to the hospital. Unfortunately for the sad-sack Oil, Falwell had already been declared dead by the time the policy was taken out. Thus, Ewing Oil's latest attempt to get on the board was thwarted, but the team will get to keep its insurance policy.
"It figures," said a spokesperson for Ewing Oil. "If only he could have hung on for an hour, or been kept alive on life-support for a day or two. Anything. Well, congratulations to Sweet Valley Death. They're earning everything they get, and we're getting what we deserve."
