Feb 14 2041: Ode to Gary Dobson - by AblazeMrGlass on October 2nd, 2024

Shocking news out of Mitchell as head coach Gary Dobson "stepped down" from his post after a dutiful career.

"I can't believe Mitchell just forced him out," said Bart Artis. "The guy gave them everything and it just seems like the president over there doesn't get it."

Artis went on to say that Dobson was like a great great step-father to him and that he wishes him the best despite the "poor" treatment from the Mariners.

"I might bring Gary on my staff just to beat those guys again worse next year... such a shame."


Mar 08 2036: Allegations - by AblazeMrGlass on January 5th, 2024

After bold accusations from Mitchell Mariner's president, Bart Artis held a press conference to dispel the rumors.

"Listen, if I was cheating I wouldn't be bringing in 3-star scrubs who can't tell a pickle from a basketball."

He then left the presser in a full-on sprint to his office yelling "Protocol delta! Protocol delta!"


Feb 02 2036: RPI Casualty - by AblazeMrGlass on December 24th, 2023

Big Hardwood has again struck a blow to the hardworking, blue collar presidents of college basketball, like myself.

Bart Artis made it a point to note that despite winning 7 straight games including a dominating win over San Diego State, the Buffaloes RPI has them out of the tournament currently… a blow to the common man.


Nov 12 2033: *itchell *ariners - by AblazeMrGlass on August 10th, 2023

The "great" Mitchell Mariners are constantly atop the news talking about 'Big Hardwood' which begs the question: wouldn't you want to talk about something you created in order to avoid the suspicion of it being you?

"Edgar Horton has a screw loose," Bart Artis said. "I've said maybe five words to that nut since our rivalry started almost 10 seasons ago and the guy constantly calls me - which I send to voicemail - saying how he can't wait to meet my wife and wondering how my son likes the fourth grade."

"He's met my wife at least 13 times and my son is 26 and is a graduate assistant for him at Mitchell... I just don't get it."

Of course, the news broke later that Horton has been overdosing on hallucinogens and players have told several stories of him breaking out in the middle of practice yelling 'They're after me! Someone burn my files!'

Interesting story out of New London


Dec 02 2032: Buffalo Soliders - by AblazeMrGlass on June 20th, 2023

So far, this season has been one filled with inconsistency and lack of focus. Head Coach Bart Artis, in his 7th season at the helm, thinks the team is one of the more talented ones he had, but they pick and chose when they want to show up.

"It's frustrating to watch a talented, young team just go out there and do whatever they want," Artis said. "This isn't Moravian or Mitchell, we have standards, we have goals and these guys can't get with that then I'll just have to take the keys to their 2004 Honda Civics."

Artis ended the statement with "these guys better start learning Spanish, cause they aren't even good enough to play in China."
