Some years ago - SOME years, not ALL of the years - we celebrated manangatang's 100th game of qootball in the Sweet Football Association.
That’s not to say that manangatang had played qootball games in other leagues, of course - mang is WELL KNOWN for being EXCLUSIVE to Sweet.
And I know what you’re thinking: “if we celebrated mang's 100th game SO RECENTLY, then WHY does this thread exist?!” And the answer, you cheeky scoundrel, is that a FURTHER ONE HUNDRED GAMES OF QOOTBALL have been and gone.
That’s right: mang is playing game 200 this very weekend (IF selected).
Now, I want to celebrate as we did one hundred games ago: with a VERY interesting Q&A service, from me (Headless) to you (not Headless).
Q. Is it true that manangatang was recently inducted into the MBD Hall of Fame?
A. YES - and the biggest surprise here is that it took this long! mang is the Demons’ LONGEST SERVING CAPTAIN - and a premiership-winning captain at that!
I really hope very much that you’re not TOO intimidated by that fact to post your congratulations and words of admiration in this very thread.
Please clap.
Q. How many games has manangatang played at this very moment in time?
199! Because THIS COMING WEEK is mang’s 200th, friends. This thread is NOT for mang’s 201st, which will come NEXT week to the chagrin of TheInjuryFactory.
Q. Could manangatang be the greatest poster in the history of the league?
Yes - in fact I’d go as far as saying that that’s quite likely.
Q. Is manangatang MUCH LOVED by Demon teammates and opposition posters alike?
Yes - ABSOLUTELY.
Q. Is it true that manangatang was overlooked for the All-Sweet FA side in Season 29 due to not playing enough games in the backline even though played infinitely more games in the backline than the poster selected in the back pocket, and even though manangatang produced what was, in my view, the greatest posting season of anybody in the modern era?
Yes.
All the very best, everybody, and please join me in congratulating our dear friend manangatang for reaching TWO HUNDRED GAMES in the Sweet Football Association.
P.S. I hope you like the thread title! It’s such a silly little anagram of “manangatang two hundred”!
