The week 8 Blunt PreView

Well Blunt Views steps things up a little this weekend. We've opened up the voting for the 1998 Blunt Views Awards with the plan to announce the awards the weekend of the WorldBowl (since none of the BV team can make it over we have to do something to keep busy).

But more importantly we've got a double header that starts this weekend. The good news is that we cannot be eliminated from reaching the WorldBowl this weekend. The bad news is that we need to win our remaining 3 games including 2 against the Galaxy then have both Barcelona and Amsterdam lose two games over the last 3 weeks. It's a tall order. Basically it boils down to this. The Claymores have to win 3 games. The Monarchs will have to win at least once if not twice against Barcelona. Rhein have to win their last two games. This would result in the best of all worlds. Claymores Vs Rhein in Frankfurt. And since we never lose in Frankfurt.... Claymores WorldBowl - becoming the ONLY team in WorldBowl history to win twice.


Anyway.... While you are here a few notices for you all.

Editor Doug Adamson will be busy next weekend so BV will not be updated on Saturday, Sunday or Monday. However he has promised to have Yes General Manager Episode 5 (The European Tour) on-line by Friday afternoon for you all to enjoy.

As the season draws to a close Blunt Views is looking for writers for the 1998 NFL season and the 1999 NFLEL season.

With BV co-editor Alan Gibson moving south to a real job and part-time contributor (well photos scanner) Steve Dalgleish heading off to the States for a year - leaving Touchdown Claymores without an Editor. Talk is a foot of Blunt Views taking on the roll of Touchdown Claymores for a year.

However all this means that the work load will increase - leaving poor old editor Doug Adamson to write more and more. So the BV team are looking for new writers to join our team on a permanent basis. If you are interested in submitting articles for BV or becoming a news gatherer please e-mail the BV team at bluntviews@planetenz.com .

There is also a very good chance that BV will be moving sites off Geocities to a better server. We will be announcing the off-season plans for Blunt Views before the WorldBowl (and yes there is a chance of 6 more episodes of Yes General Manager ).
