RINGWRAITHS HEAD COACH WHITE FIRED AFTER THREE SEASONS
MORDOR(AP)--The Mount Doom Ringwraiths,who this year
missed the MFL playoffs for the third straight season,fired
head coach Saruman T. White and offensive co-ordinator
Grima Wormtongue last night.In a statement explaining
his decision,Ringwraiths general manager I.F. Sauron
said,quote:"During the season just completed,it became
clear that their commitment to winning wasn't as strong
as I had hoped it would be."
Sources close to the team suggest the firings may also
have been motivated by a desire to end the controversy
that has engulfed the entire league in the wake of revelations
that White used illegal tactics in last year's failed
attempt to sign Hobbiton Shires wide receiver and two-time
Isengard Bowl MVP Frodo Baggins as a free agent.Even
before last night's announcement,MFL commissioner Elrond
Everstar was preparing to take severe disciplinary action
against the Ringwraiths,and Shires general manager Gandalf
D. Grey has already filed tampering charges with the
league against Sauron.
