Our reporter and his blonde companion sit watching football at Bazz with Beth Harnois, Cassandra Lynn Scerbo, Poindexter Del Crunchy, and the Man In The Hat.
Reporter: "Well, Wiz, one more big card tomorrow night and 2018 will be a wrap...and it's been a successful year for Front Street..."
Beth: "Of COURSE it has! My Wizziepooh knows what he's doing!"
Man In The Hat: "We define a successful year as one in which we win a title. We won a title. So. Yeah. It's been a successful year. But. Not as successful as it COULD have been."
Cassie: "Now, Uncle Wiz, let's watch some football and enjoy the day..."
Man In The Hat: "I'm answerin' the man's question, Cassandra Lynn..."
Tess (smiling): "Technically, he didn't ASK a question..."
Man In The Hat: "Good point. But. I'm going to answer it anyway. We lost too many big fights this year. We came up short too many times."
Tess: "There's no shame in Perry losing to Winstead or Swan losing to Palicki..."
Man In the Hat: "Absolutely NOT. Those are two of the best lightweights in the world and both of our fighters fought well. Both could easily have won. But. That's the point. We did too MUCH of that this year. WAAAAY too much..."
Pointy: "Well, Wizardo, you're going to have streaks like that. Remember when you couldn't beat Bazz at Asylum? These things turn around..."
Man In The Hat: "You may be right. I HOPE you're right. Because they HAVE to turn around. We had SIX title shots this year. SIX. That's more than any other year in Front Street history. It's three times what we had last year. But. We won the same number of titles. ONE. Last year, we were one for two. This year, we were one for SIX. We have to do better than that..."
Pointy: "It's hard to win title fights, as you well KNOW..."
Man In The Hat: "I DO know that. But, it wasn't JUST the title fights. We lost too many fights on the big stage. Didn't get our share. We need to correct that. And, we're going to. One way or another. As I said the other day, 2019 is going to be about winning big fights and PROVING you can win big fights. And, if you DON'T do that, well. 2020 is gonna be a whole different ball of wax. Now. Let's watch some ball."
