AFL
Brisbane Bad Boy Posse set to rock AFL
by STAFF REPORTERS
The Brisbane Lions are no more. In a shock
announcement today, the AFL's northern franchise announced it was changing
its name to the Brisbane "Bad Boy Posse".
The new name is accompanied by a logo of a man
wearing a baseball cap back to front, accompanied by large gold chains,
with a large handgun sticking out of his jeans and pointing in a strange
way with his fingers. "It's going to be rad, bro," said the Brisbane's
marketing manager, DJ Puff Uncle Rodriguez. "And no, our mascot is not
Lleyton Hewitt."
The players were united in acclaiming the new
image, turning up for the press conference in matching red bandanas and
with their underwear showing above extremely baggy long football shorts.
"It's happening, dude. We're real, we're a steal,
we're from the hood and we're very very good," said MC Lynch, the former
captain.
Crib Keating (formerly Clark) added that Brisbane
was "a crew ready to open a can of whup-ass on the butt" of the other AFL
teams.
The AFL is apparently nervous about the name
change but admitted there was little it could do to hold back the
franchise. "They're the brothers in the Hood and they're bad mo-fos," said
AFL chief Wayne Jackson. "I'm not about to go up there to try and tame
those wild hombres like Michael 'One Time One Time' Voss or coach Lethal
'Love You Make' Matthews."
The Bad Boy Posse makes its public debut this
weekend in New Zealand, against the Adelaide Crows. "We've watched 'Once
Were Warriors' nine times this week already," said Puff Power. "Bring it
on, Hombres. Bring it on!"
