CLINTON NAMED PRESIDENT OF SEA HOGS
Linardo to host benefit concert for Bobber

NFFA deputy commissioners Mo and Cash Money today named Sen. Hillary Clinton as president of the Fidalgo Island Sea Hogs, replacing Triki Bobber, the suspended owner of the troubled franchise.
The announcement, which appears to have followed extensive negotiations between Bobber and the commissioner’s office, gives the former Democratic presidential hopeful, whose campaign is officially suspended, the power to oversee all day-to-day operations of the Sea Hogs.
The agreement does not foreclose the possibility that Bobber, whose precise whereabouts are currently unknown, could ultimately regain full control over his team. Prior to the appointment of Clinton, the team had been operated by Jorge Linardo, who was named interim GM when Bobber’s suspension was announced last spring. But with Hill in charge, said one NFFA insider speaking on condition of anonymity out of fear of retaliation by the Money sisters, "This makes it a lot harder to imagine Triki having the same authority he once did as long as Mo and Cash are calling the shots. This is their way of sticking it to Bobber.”
On the other hand, said the inside source, with Clinton as president, it’s more likely that the Sea Hogs’ 2007 championship will be restored, “now that the league knows the team is at last under sane management.”
Ironically, Bobber and Clinton are old acquaintances, dating back to their days as attorneys in Little Rock. Sources say that Bobber and Bill and Hillary Clinton attended many of the same parties, including a number at which marijuana was smoked and inhaled. However, Bobber and the Clintons came to hate each other over what Johnny Mack Faubus, a mutual friend and contractor from Pine Bluff, described as Bobber’s “crypto-nazi cracker political views.” It is believed also that Bobber was among those whom Hillary had in mind when she described a “vast, right-wing, criminally insane conspiracy” against her husband.
“I’m totally down with this,” said East Nashville Black Dogs coach Jim McMahon. “I believe my boss Bill Money would be down with it, too, if they ever find his ass. Hillary had to be president of something. Who knew it would be an NFFA team? I’m stoked at the opportunity to spank the bitch on the field this season. And hopefully, Slick Willie will come to Nashvegas for some partying.”
On a related note, FSN has learned that Linardo will be hosting an exclusive concert on Bobber’s behalf. The event, dubbed Bobberoo, will be held in mid-August and will include a three-day cruise near Vancouver Island. Guests will pay $20,000 apiece for the right to attend and all proceeds will go to fund research to find a cure for Bobber’s mad cow disease.
