Facepunchers Announce Season Opener
It's official. Amid a near firestorm of press coverage, team co-founders Morin and McFadden announced at a much anticipated press conference that the 2007 season of the Facepunchers will kick off Sunday, April 22nd at Ocean Beach. After the applause finally died down, they were able to field some questions from the media...
"Now that the team has one season behind it, what have you learned that you might apply in the coming months?"
"Nothing."
"What do you have to say about the recent trouble involving Carlos and his drinking in the Tenderloin? Does he really plan to bring sexy back?"
"The Facepunchers organization has no comment at this time, except that we plan to unleash a spree of crime and looting the likes of which the 'loin has never seen."
"Does the league intend to take a stronger stance against off-field legal troubles the way the NFL has with Adam "Pacman" Jones and Chris Henry?"
"Absolutely not. It is every Facepuncher's right to get arrested. In fact, we may make it mandatory that every member of the team is taken into custody at least once for drunk and disorderly conduct during the season."
"Who will be your starting quarterbacks on opening day?"
"At this time, we have several talented prospects who show a lot of promise. But we'll probably let Carlos do it instead...we know how he feels about running when he's not chasing an ice-cream truck."
"How has Jim's recent deal to be the spokesman for Jim Beam Whiskey affected the team? How do you respond to critics that claim the organization is selling out?"
"The deal has had no effect on the team. Jim has always been powered by at least a bottle per game, and now he has found a way to get it for free. As for allegations of selling out, that's preposterous, we would never do such a thing. Anyone who knows that Jim Beam is the smoothest best-tasting whiskey on the market also knows that The Facepunchers are not for sale."
Morin and McFadden then angrily stormed out of the room, leaving reporters both stunned and confused. But one thing was for certain, The Facepunchers triumphant return to the sandiron is imminent.
This report brought to you by Jim Beam Whiskey--"the cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems."

Face Punchers suffer devastating loss...Carlos Morin missing
The Face Punchers were embarrased this past weekend with their first loss to Hard Core Flag Football. A ridiculous score of 98-8, the Face Punchers have contacted BALCO to inquire whether or not Hard Core players were on steroids. When asked what made him think they were on illegal growth hormones, Morin stated that "they were big and screamed alot...mostly at me".
The game started at exactly 1:30 with the Face Punchers taking possession. Shortly after being stuffed at the line, the Face Punchers opted to punt. A few plays later, Hard Core was in the endzone to make the score 1-0. The last two sentences repeated 16 times for a final score of 98-8. No, that's not a typo, it really was 98-8.
Carlos "The Arm" Morin, 3-time self-proclaimed MVP, could not live up to his name (that he respectfully gave to himself), throwing for a club record 6 interceptions and 5 yards passing. To add, his contract with the Face Punchers organization is in jeopardy. Reporters have tried to contact Morin but noone is answering at his Tenderloin Mansion. A sign outside his door reads, "Noone is here". A mat also lies on the floor reading, "Welcome", an interesting turn of events since noone is there to welcome you.
It was, however, a beautiful Sunday for football but Jesus Christ was certainly not with the Face Punchers, instead, he showed up sporting a rugby jersey and a sign that read, "If flags are for fags than call me Mary". Oh, Jesus. What a kidder.
Another sell-out crowd turned out with a total of 30 plus fans, all who received a cum towel at the gate from their favorite Face Puncher. Cum towel supervisor Claudia, was on hand to pass them out to the first 30 fans. "There's certainly more where these came from", she continued, "whoops!, I got some on my face...mmm, that's good".
Perhaps the greatest highlight of the day was a whale that beached for the day to watch the game. Wearing a black #90 Face Puncher jersey and a thumbs up for his favorite team, the beached whale cheered his team on. Hey whale, thanks.
The Face Punchers, now in the off-season, are not scheduled to return to the sand until spring for training camps and exhibition games.
Keep your pages turned to the Weekly Face Puncher to find out what your favorite player is doing. Chances are, it has something to do with homosexuality.
Correction: After this article was written, it was discovered that what was thought to be a beached whale was the Face Punchers center, Brett Sturgell, signaling to the crowd that he loves a nice thumb up his ass.
The End.

Facepunchers Sponsor First Ever Can-Opener Drive
During today's press conference, The Facepunchers announced that they will Sponsor the first ever "Can-Opener Drive" to help the less fortunate this holiday season. The team's founders told confused reporters that, "with all the focus on canned-food drives, we realized that those in need would have no way to open all the cans they get." Carlos Morin and Jim McFadden, seen in the photo, then announced that the team is partnering with Tenderloin liquor stores to collect can-openers this December.
While reporters were at first skeptical of the team's commitment to helping the needy, they acknowledged that the can openers are in fact a necessity in opening the thousands of cans of creamed corn and spinach that canned food drives are expected to generate. The press did however, note that this may be another of the team's attempts to direct attention away from their most recent scandals and arrests.
One reporter was quick to mention the disastrous "Father-Bum Picnic", a way of reaching out to connect with local vagrants. The event quickly turned ugly as members of The Facepunchers used money recently awarded from a team sponsor of the event to aid the Tenderloin street urchins in purchasing several "fifty rocks" of crack, which were then smoked to fuel a city-wide rampage of death and destruction. The melee ended at at a local massage parlor where the entire group was arrested just as they were attempting to trade hub-cabs and stolen televisions for what would have amounted to what SFPD Chief Ron Ward described as "over one hundred happy endings".
Coach Nash seeked to assuage reporters' doubts, telling them that this event has only a "forty percent chance of involving crack smoking, and only a twenty percent chance of a happy ending." Nash then encouraged the city of San Francisco to join the team's cause, stating "the city's losers and crackheads need to open their cans of all the stuff you threw out because you wouldn't touch it with a twenty foot pole. Please, bring your can-openers to corner stores all across the Tenderloin."
When asked about The Facepuncher's upcoming contest against "Hardcore" Flag Football, Coach Nash was optimistic about the team's chances. "Oh yeah, those guys that play with little toy flags. We're gonna beat them and then use those little flags to tie them up and let the tide wash over their stupid heads."

Face Punchers To Square Off Against Hard Core
The undefeated San Francisco Face Punchers have established their first rival, San Francisco Hard Core, a fag football team...whoops! excuse me, I meant flag football team. Both teams, led by Carlos "The Arm" Morin and Joe Ding Dong, have confirmed to reporters earlier this week, that the two powerhouses plan to meet on December 17th to find out who is king of the pigskin.
"We're ready", Morin says, "my boys don't chase flags around a field all day...they hit and they hit hard".
When asked about whether it was true that the score was already 2-0, Morin stated yes, saying that he had to promise them two touchdowns just to get them on the sand.
"It was pretty ridiculous", Morin said, "they actually accepted my offer". Morin went on to say that he "eats out bitches just like them".
The Face Punchers, a tackle football team, believes that flags are for fags. They began their season early this year playing tackle on the grass but made the switch to the beach just before the summer. They have risen to celebrity status as well as the most dominant team in their league. They are also the only team in their league, which clearly makes them # 1.
The Face Punchers played what they thought was their last game, The Super Beach, until they were challenged by Hard Core. Sources say the Face Punchers refused to play with flags on the grass and stated they would only play if it was tackle.
Hard Core agreed.
Not much can be said about Hard Core, except that they play with colorful flags and probably ghost runners.
One thing is for sure, they have their work cut out for them.

Well, there you have it folks, the real story surrounding some of the myth and folklore that is the 2006 Facepunchers. Here is the scoring system to rate your knowledge of the greatest team ever to play any sport in the history of time--Let's see what category you fit into:
17-23--You are hereby an honorary Facepuncher, and an astute disciple of the Team of Destiny. Your knowledge of the team is second to none. Also, you're probably wasted.
12-16-- You are hereby an honorary Facepuncherette, still well-versed in team lore, but perhaps at times too intoxicated to recall some of the season's highlight-reel moments.
6-11-- You are at best, a casual fan-- a "bandwagon-rider" if you will. You probably started following the team after we won our first five and decided to jump on for the ride.
0-5-- You probably stumbled onto this site by accident looking for a dojo.

Team Red Beats Team Black 7-6
"Let there be light" - Jesus
On perhaps one of the most beautiful days to ever shine down on the San Francisco Face Punchers, Super Beach I was played.
The Face Punchers, the leagues most dominate team, arrived at the beach shortly after 1 with their war paint on. Captains Carlos "The Arm" Morin and Brian "If only I could be like Morin" McKelvey, opposing quarterbacks, met at the 50 yard line to engage in paper, rocks, scissors, the F.C.B.F.L's version of the N.F.L's coin toss.
Team Red took possession at the end-zone line with Brian McKelvey at the helm and # 1 draft pick, Adam McBride in the backfield. After running several unsuccessful plays and an interception to Lil' Mosquito for a turnover, Team Black took the ball for the first time.
Morin, perhaps the greatest quarterback to ever play the game, took the pigskin and really shoved it up Team Red's ass by throwing a bomb to Teddy Twonames for the first point of the game.
During the blast towards the end-zone, Team Black suffered their first injury of the day. New recruit Dean "John" Holmes endured a crack to the head and blood poured from his wound like 5-cent bled on BART. It was nasty, real nasty.
After another failed attempt by Team Red to score, Morin came through once again with a second touchdown pass to Lil' Mosquito for the second point of the game and gave Team Black a 2 point advantage. The future looked bleek for Team Red by this time but they finally came back and with a touchdown pass to Jin Voeks, made the score 3-1.
Later, Morin and his crew were stuffed on a fourth and goal conversion and were forced to give the ball back. Jim McFadden, upset by his teammates lack of passion, took the ball and ran it up Team Black's ass with several first down conversions and a hand-off to Adam McBride, to make the score 3-2.
After Team Red tied the score to 3-3, Team Black put their last point on the board before the half. Team Red followed shortly with 3 minutes left for the half to tie it up at 4.
The Halftime Show
This years halftime show was packed with star-studded celebrities and wild performances. Lady killers, Michael Bolton, Kenny Loggins and Milli Vanilli were this years special entertainers, driving the women crazy and keeping their pussies wetter than Morin and Brodeur in a hot spring.
But the real action wasn't at the half.
Tied at 4-4, Team Red changed their strategy and came out swinging. Team Black, unable to leave their own endzone, gave in to the fighting red and failed to produce any t.d's. Self proclaimed whiskey drinking mother fucker, Jim McFadden again came through but this time on defense. Responsible for several failed completions to willing receivers, McFadden shut down the passing game and allowed Team Red to score three more times on plays by Adam McBride, Jin Voeks and Brian McKelvey, to put the scoreboard at 7-4.
But McFadden and and his "D", came into check and after another phenomenal pass to Mark Brown, Team Black fought back to remain on Team Red's side of the sand. Team Black scored two more times to get the score back to 7-6 with catches by new recruits Dean "John" Holmes and Lil' Mosquito.
Team Red, trying to stop the rush, lost Peter Counts to a freak toe accident. A sight unbearable to all. Counts, who turned out fine, was rushed to the hospital and was out of the game permanently, hurting Red's chances at a possible victory.
But perhaps the most memorable play came with 5 minutes left in the game.
At first down, five yards out of tying the game, Team Black had four chances to capture the title. Several downs later and fourth, Morin rolled out left to find a receiver. There, in his chops, were Line Backer Adam McBride. Morin was hit but on his way down, let the ball go to a sailed out Dean Holmes.
But it wasn't enough and Team Black was shut down, leaving Team Red to wind down the clock, leaving them to frollick in their happiness.
But despite the outcome, it was a successful day for the San Francisco Face Punchers, who played to a sell-out crowd of 30 plus spectators.
The second season plans to be a huge hit with all of the remaining Face Punchers returning to camp, scheduled for sometime in April.
The Face Punchers, who have scheduled their Christmas Party and Awards Ceremony for December 17th, will issue the Dan Lewis Award, to the player who has exuded much assholeness, as well as the Alex Walterspiel Award, for the player that oozes Nazi Lesbianism at it's finest.
Stay tuned to The Weekly Face Puncher for more packed action.
