    PIXLEY — The Hooterville Pirates were hit with a Category 5 last night.

    Battered by a superior offense and drowned in a sea of mistakes, the Pirates submerged under a storm surge in a 55-6 loss to the Pixley Hurricanes.

    No blue tarpaulins or FEMA trailers were in sight as Pixley roared out to a 39-0 halftime lead. By the time the sky cleared and the floodwaters receded, the Pirates were left high and dry.

    "We never imagined the levees would breach," said Hooterville coach Michael Brown.
