CUT PILE HEROES AND OTHER FUN FACTS
To answer the queries of Phil Davia, Dog Dirt Davis is a relatively young 7-seasons old; Jebediah "the Reverend" Wacknut is 9 and the Davia favorite Buck-Buck Bagaak is currently in his 11th season (the last five of which has been spent in the cut pile.)
To further respond to cut-pile inquisitor extraordinaire Davia, the player with the most cut pile time at present
is the center Pug Mahone, who has spent 14 full seasons in the cut pile and parts of others in his 20-season “career.”
He did spend parts of six other seasons in the league on someone's squad, but only one entire season on anyone's roster since joining the league way, way, way back in season 9. That was Season 16, which he spent with Houston, getting in 9 games and producing a 1.8 points per game average on 50 percent shooting.
If you’re looking for someone who has never seen the MBA light of day, we present guard Jalapa Valley, who is currently in his 14th consecutive cut pile season and will return to add to that string next campaign. It is the longest anyone has ever spent in the cut pile without ever seeing actual action. It will be interesting to see if Pug Mahone or Jalapa Valley will eventually claim the all-time title, since both are still “active.”

31st MBA All Star Game
EAST BREAKS WEST WINNING STREAK
The East Division all stars, behind the MVP performance of Philadelphia's Cheetos Jones (7 for 14 on 3s) crushed the West in the 31st MBA All Star Game, 82-60. It was Jones' second All Star Game MVP in three appearances and the performance added to his leadership in the career event for treys. He has been the game's top scorer in the last three All Star contests.
Momadou Zongo of Charleston and Boone Doggle of Philadelphia were playing in their last all star contest and both added to their Hall of Fame careers with their performances.
Zongo became the all-time steals leader in all star games with two more for a total of eight. He also ended up fifth on all time scoring in all star games Doggle's 3 blocks put him second all time in all star games to the great Curly Hogbottom. Doggle ended with 13 to 16 for Hogbottom. Doggle added five rebounds to move him into third all time in that all star game department.
The MBA will resume action with Charleston (4-1) at Philadelphia (4-1) in the next contest.
