Ass of the Month
Slim pickins’ this month, thought last month’s winner (loser?) did not even show up and wear his dunce cap. Not allowed, Daniel, not allowed. Much like Babe Ruth’s home run record, it was believed no one could break Tom Maddock’s AOM record, but Daniel Stubblefield is giving it his worst.
