The cops are walking the beat
thinking of ways they can cheat
As Bobby Lee pedals his feet

God Made Firemen so police will have heroes
in 2008, the cops will score ZERO

Of course the judge would frown
after he\’s told not to drive through town
after the firemen WON last time

The cops are worth pee
without Bobby Lee
Thank god for the UEZ!

Ziegler would be safer
if he just keeps pushing paper
Instead of thinking he can handle the hot wing vapor

So Cops, Take a seat. You\’re about to get beat.
Firemen are always better at handling the heat!!

See you next month ladies! \”Central you can 40 that one out\”

I think the fire weenies should send three trucks to the wing bowl so they can get credit for doing three jobs for the night. That will put their calls for service up to 5 for the year!! Everyone knows that all these guys do is eat, sleep, and listen to the police scanner. Maybe we should have a sleeping contest or a contest to see who does the least amount of work in the city. The only one that does less work than a fireman is Ziegler. That will definitely be a guaranteed win for the wackers.

I\’m gonna have to side with the cops on this one. I was traveling Rt. 130 the other night and saw them all at gaetano\’s. It looks like they were practicing pretty hard. Firemen watch out….I hear also that they have a new weapon. They added a new eater to their line-up. So instead of dropping the wings on the floor and kicking them behind the stage. This new eater is going to have his dog sitting under the table to get rid of the evidence.
Also, I see Ziegler is going to eat. I don\’t know if he will do to well. If he could just stop talking for a few minutes he will be able to put down some wings. I don\’t see that happening!!

Warm up suits????? What is that all about?? I didn\’t think anybody still wore them!!! 5 days and counting! I am psyched!! Can you guys please wear those warm up suits, I gotta see this! Are they velour?? Do you have Chuck Taylor\’s to wear with them as well? You probably had to get Doug Ziegler\’s sweat suit at the Children\’s Place, and you probably had to get Goober\’s sweat suit at Lane Bryant. I can\’t wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Listen fellas,

There is no secret that the police are going to win again; their undefeated record speaks for itself. I will add my fuel to the fire though so here it is….
Ryan…Can you say mid-life crisis? Here is a guy that drives his family around in a 6 cylinder mustang. He must be hanging out with his neighbor, ex-freeloader Gurick. At least Gurick actually looks cool in his mustang. Ryan will crumble after only a few wings, just like he crumbled after a few minutes into each football game he played in GHS.
Hubbs…I can\’t really say anything bad about ole holier than thou Jerry. He is probably the only threat on the hose wacker\’s team.
Dillon…He\’ll be out of breath climbing the three steps up on the stage, after a couple of bathroom runs, he will be being transported to Cooper by the 10-56.
Hagan…I\’m just glad he will not be on the microphone, have you ever heard a Hagan that could actually speak the English Language. They have their own language; the only people that can communicate with them are the Ellers (they have half the genes). I don\’t think grand pop will be able to pull any more favors for Pat on this one. I think grand pop used up all his favors getting Kenny Eller promoted to LT.
Oliver…Watch out for this guy to fold for the cops, he owes almost every one of them for taking his intoxicated butt home instead of locking him up. One thing is for certain though, he doesn\’t owe Zeigler or Lee, and these guys haven\’t uttered the words \”You\’re under arrest\” in about five years.
Bramble…This guy is seriously coo coo for coo coo puffs. Watch for Bramble to start talking to his wings instead of eating them.

The cops will be victorious once again!!

I heard the fire department is going to have Brandt eating, so I am going to have to go with the Fire Department.

I am going to have to go with the cops! The firemen might over sleep and not make it to the event.

I\’m going with the firemen on this one guys. The firemen should prevail in anything except managing a budget. Good luck to all!!! This should be a great time.

This is awesome!!!!!!!! It is good to see some camaraderie (did I spell that right?) between the two organizations. There is allot of negativity flying around but, all in all good stuff
