                AND WE'RE OFF - IMPRESSIVE START TO THE 2026 SEASON

September 14, 2026By: Oscar Madison - World Bowl ReportWOW!   Now that was entertaining!  Scoring wasn't a problem for most teams during week-one action of the new season and fans were interested to see how the new Kicking Rule would shake out.  WFF Kickers scored 101 points this week.  That's 8.41 points per kicker.  On Opening Week, 2025, 12 WFF Kickers totaled 141 points (11.75 points per kicker).Long time Spider kicker Evan McPherson (Picture on left)  who was released in August and Drafted by Higgy (79th pick) in the seventh round was the top kicker this week with 17 points.  The NFL-Bengal kicked four field goals and added three extra points. Kicker were the difference in the Plymouth overtime victory over Timothy Town.  Posse OT player Chase McLaughlin (NFL-Bucs) out scored Pterodactyl OT kicker Andres Borregales (NE) 10-5.But the BIG story from week-ONE is the scoring across the board (except Manimc).Teams combined for 831 points.  That's 69 points per team average. Looking back again to opening day, 2025 where teams scored 631 points or 52 points per team.﻿

South Central Wags boss Mike Wagner was in attendance for the first time in years and he was accompanied by his new General Manager Scott Wag, who does not like to read.Dan Sheehan, the Defending World Bowl Champion appeared prepared for the Draft for maybe the first time.  Sheriff GM Danny (away at WMU) was not able to attend and fellow College Student Matthew McLaughlin (Manimc) was Drafting via the WFF Webpage from Central Michigan University.And for maybe the first time ever; Ypsituck Chief and Assistant WFF GM Sean McLaughlin was not in the Draft Room.   He was dealing with flooding at the Tee Pee in Northville after sever storms rolled through the area the previous two day.Donny McDonald and Dave Venegas also missed the in person event due to out of town vacation plans.  Great event.  All 12 teams appeared to have successful Draft Selections.﻿

cold feet leaves san andreas without a first round draft pick

August 30thBy Oscar Madison - World Bowl ReportFourteen hours after Ryan McLaughlin finally made a deal that would get him a first round Draft pick this coming Thursday night; the deal between the Lowriders and Old McDonwald was called off by both Clubs.During Saturday's seven hour celebration of life luncheon for Marlene McClorey at Edgewood Country Club in Commerce Twp, Donny McDonald agreed to send one of his two 2026 first round Draft picks to Ryan for NFL Arizona wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr.  The Red Raiders were also giving up their third round draft pick.McDonwald was excited to give the third year super star out of Ohio State a shot after a lack luster two year career.  Harrison was one of Ryan's favorite players who he did not want to trade away but how much fun could the Lowriders have at Thursday Nights Draft at Sheehan's on the Green without a

first - second or third round Draft pick.  The Lowrider don't have a pick (40th) until the 4th round.  Old McDonwald has Ryan's first round pick (4th) and Manimc has two of Ryan's picks (16-28) because of the Matthew Stafford trade last season.So Marvin Harrison Jr to Old McDonwald for the a first round pick (5) and third round pick (17) was called off at 8:30 am Sunday morning.  A sleepless night in San Andreas cost the Lowriders two high Draft picks which Ryan could have used.Donny was confident that the Cardinals new Head Coach Mike LaFleur (LA Rams OC last season) could turn the young receivers career around.  Ryan still thinks Marvin could be a star and that is what ended up killing the deal and taking away most of Ryan's fun on Thursday night.

     wags returns home!  daddy long legs back in south central michigan

May 21, 2026 - Commerce Twp, MichiganSouth Central Wags Owner Mike Wagner informed the Commish that he has moved his team from Phoenix back to the State of Michigan and plans on opening his new Stadium in the Irish Hills sometime in June.  You may recall a few years back Mike went on a scouting trip to Europe to see if he could become an international team.  "I landed on Portugal as the destination," said Wags.  "They then promply changed their tax policy making the move unpalatable, if not untenable.  I settled on France as the best tax situation but the whole Europe and France specifically starting going insame and I don't see that changing anytime soon."Mike sold his Stadium in Phoenix and moved in with Brother Pat for what was suppose to be a few months.  "Two and a half years later I was tired of being Alan Harper of Scottsdale and needed a new plan. Moving back to Michigan seems like a pretty good alternative.In the process of buying a place on Lake Sumerset in the Irish Hills just south of Jackson and will likely start snowbirding in a year or two." Although it was tough leaving family members back in Arizona, Mike will not miss the desert summers.  And he is fired up about being able to attend WFF functions in person for the first time in decades.Welcome back to Michigan Mike!  Welcome Home!﻿
                                                                                                                                                                                                               

Commerce Twp, (MI) - There was more changes announced by Mike Wagner while having dinner with the Commish May 21st.Scott Wagner has been appointed General Manager of the Daddy Long Legs.  Scott, the son of Tim and Debbie Wagner is Mike's nephew.  He will fit in just fine!"In the past few years I have not been paying enough attention to the organization," said Mike.  "Scott is a sharpe guy and knows his football.  He also might know more of the Owners than I do these day's.  Plus the fun factor!  He seems to be a no brainer and he graciously agreed to take over the General Manager duties."Mike Wagner is beginning his 34th season as a WFF Owner."We will do this together this season and if he likes it and agrees, give him full control after that.  I have loved being apart of this League and will continue in at least a consultant role but I really like the expansion with the new blood.  The WFF is getting fun again and I love to see it."﻿
The South Central Wags Daddy Long Legs have won two World Bowl Championships.  1997 and 2022.﻿
Statement from the Commissioner:I am thrilled to have Wags back in the Great Lake State!  How great than the Daddy Long Legs are moving to South Central Michigan. Awesome.  And the decision to bring Scott aboard will certainly create a great amount of excitement not only for Spider fans but everyone associated with the World Football Federation.﻿

  QUIET WINTER MEETING AT SHEEHAN'SJanuary 19, 2026By Oscar Madison - World Bowl ReportThere was an opportunity to see the World Bowl and congratulate Champion Danny Sheehan Monday Night at Sheehan's on the Green and the Commish and two Owners took the opportunity since they could not attend World Bowl Monday when Sheehan was officially Crowned WFF Champion.While the College Football Playoff Championship Game was being played on TVs across the Green, the WFF Group talked about the WFF moving forward."Matthew (McLaughlin) isn't going to like this but we need to address the kicking points situation again" said the Commish. "We can't have kickers scoring 40 points in a game, they're kickers not football players."  Ryan McLaughlin agreed; Sheehan and Ypsi boss Sean McLaughlin did not agree.  There was no yelling or screaming but Danny did change his mind a few minutes later. The Commish also talked about wanting to score more points; having a new "Flex" rule that would allow teams to start an extra skill player.  "Another football player since 

the Commish would like to see fewer kicking points.  "Teams must start at least one runningback but could play three rushers," said the Commish.  Line Ups could have 1 RB and 5 Receivers or 2 RB and 4 Receivers.  Can't start more than three rushers.  Two of the three Owners in the room liked it.Danny Sheehan is going to officially propose a new special teams rule."If one of your starting players (RB or WR) ends up scoring a special teams touchdown for another WFF team; your team gets those points as well.  The Commish wasn't sure about that idea but that is the purpose of the Winter Meeting."I missed Brian Broderick tonight," said the Commish.  "If he was here he'd be talking *^%*( just to piss me off!"Speaking of Broderick, Sheehan wants to join the Posse movement to have just ten players protected before the next Draft.  "We need to have more good players available in the Draft, especially quarterbacks."The Commish will also push that the Trade and Transaction deadline be moved from week 13 until week-14, the end of the regular season.   Watched some CFP Football, drank a few beers and talked a little football.  A Good Monday Night.﻿
