Road Trip!

PARAMUS, NJ - Four Spaghetti and Matzo Balls members met today at the Hooters Restaurant on Route 17 to celebrate owner Doug Sonneberg’s victory in the inaugural season of S&MB Fantasy Football.

Commissioner Greg Mammolitti and Deputy Commissioner Robert Meyers were on hand, accompanied by owner Chris Chambers, as they presented the Nulton Trophy to Doug for his victory in the 2001 Spaghetti Bowl over Meyers' Rorshach team. Doug's team, F**k the Jets, posted a 9-5 record during the regular season.

Served by the lovely (and chatty) Hooters girl, Dani, the assembled owners caught up with one another over plates of buffalo wings and pitchers of beer. Sorry guys, as the gentlemen (especially Chris) found out the hard way, Dani has a boyfriend. We think. She also has countless unbelievable stories that she very willingly divulged to four men she just met, who were truthfully only interested in staring at the $6,000 investment a short distance below her face. The League's resident aspiring screenwriter, Rob, was diligently taking mental notes of many of her tales during the course of the night.

The Nulton Trophy

Named in honor of Jeremy Nulton, a very dear friend to many of the S&MB members, who we tragically lost way too early in life, the Nulton Trophy is the ultimate prize in the Spaghetti and Matzo Balls League. The Nulton Trophy is inscribed with both the owner's name and the team name of every S&MB baseball and football champion dating back to our inaugural football season in 2001.

Treated with as much reverence, respect, and honor as the historic Stanley Cup of the NHL, the Nulton Trophy is permanently housed in the league headquarters in Howell, NJ, securely guarded by the Commissioner's personal security staff (his two dogs).

Meticulously handcrafted and extremely fragile, the Trophy is now protected under plexiglass and is retired from travel to ensure its safety so it can stand as the symbol of excellence for the owners of the Spaghetti and Matzo Balls League for seasons to come.
