Tallula and Lyon Talking

Associated Press

WINNETKA, ILL. -- After rumors that Walt Lyon was to be released from Barifinkle/Team Sit on My Face, he showed up as a member of Barifinkle Wednesday. However, he left as a member of Tallula.

"Lyon was signed today for a one game contract with Tallula, and he really provided the leadership we previously lacked," Mac Tucker said after the game.

Tallula and Barifinkle were playing each other and as Tallula had only 4 players, Lyon decided to suit up for the opposition. When his loyalty to Tallula was questioned by Connor O'Halleran, Lyon responded that he really wanted to win because his true teammates never play him.

The rest is history as Tallula nearly pulled off the most shocking upset of all time, losing to Barifinkle/Team Sit on My Face 40-33. Lyon played a key role in Tallula's loss, and Ryan Murningham thinks that Lyon will stay with Tallula permanently.

"Walt has been signed by Tallula for the rest of the season," Murningham said Friday. The validity of this statement can not be determined until we see Lyon play next week (Jan. 7), but look for Lyon to be playing as a member of Tallula, and look for Tallula to possibly go up in the ONL.
