History

Article by Chewie

The Jäger Bombers were formed one Friday night in an alcohol influenced state at Moe's Tavern. Barney Gumble had just seen the announcement of the league on the television and exclaimed quite emphatically that he wanted to create a team, before collapsing on the floor through excessive alcohol consumption. Those around him felt that this would be a great idea and while dropping the shot of Jäger into their Red Bull, declared that the team would be named the Jäger Bombers.

When they awoke the next morning they had no recollection of the night before and did not realise that they had created a team until they saw themselves on the news. A reporter had been at the tavern, with a cameraman filming the entire ordeal. Barney, Callum, Dipak, Truman and Jono decided that although they didn't remember creating this team, their drunken selves were much more intelligent than their normal selves and went ahead with creating the team. It didn't take long to get both Jägermeister and Red Bull on board as their main sponsors so that they could avoid having hangovers ever by being constantly drunk and awake. This was the beginning of the era of the Jäger Bombers, a team that would take the PlanetCricket National League by storm.

Finances


Financial Manager and Head Lawyer for the Jäger Bombers, Jono Choie has readied the contracts for those who have signed up so far. These contracts detail how much each member of the squad will be paid for signing up to the Jäger Bombers, and their match fees and potential bonuses. He had this to say:

Quote:We are delighted to announce that everyone who has signed a contract with us so far will receive 1,000 vCash to begin with. This is in keeping with our promised of a $100 bar tab at Moe's (the exchange rate between Springfield currency and vCash is 10 vCash to $1). On top of that, in every match of the season, everyone who plays a match will receive 500 vCash in match fees, with a bonus of 1,000 vCash to the person we feel was the most outstanding performer on our team. As well as this, at the end of the season there will be an undisclosed amount to be awarded to the MVP of the side, as well as the person with the most runs and wickets.

The financial affairs of the Jäger Bombers were reported to be in great shape despite this announcement and Jono Choie was looking forward to many successes in the season ahead.
