The Buster Bowl

Twenty-two days. That is all that stands between us and one of the most anticipated events of the year. Men will leave their families and their metal will be tested. You have been introduced to 12 of them, but these last four are sure to tip the scales. With a collective weight of roughly 1100 pounds, I have deemed this group the heavy-set quartet. Ready to meet them? Lock your pantry, because here they come.    Caleb Ryan Bush was supposed to write a bio for Caleb. Unfortunately, I may have set the bar too high for Bush, something you might expect Bradberry to complain about at theme parks when they refuse to let him on the ride. Thus, I will be writing my own player comp. Caleb is a glue guy whose personality is much better than his golf game. He likes to keep things loose and isn’t afraid to knock a couple drinks back. When people talk about Caleb’s performance in previous Buster Bowls, no one mentions his golf game. Instead, they might talk about the time he HOUSED a ...

Hello, friends. We have reached the halfway point where 8/16 players have been introduced. Hopefully, you have enjoyed the unbiased reporting from my end. Stay with me now, because four more player comps are coming your way, and they’re coming hard. Alan LaBov LaBov will make his Buster Bowl debut this year, but despite having no tape available for the captains to review, he is going early in most mock drafts. Based on numerous reports, some of which could be classified as glazing, LaBov is close to being a scratch golf. Again, I am basing this on secondhand information, but this would solidify his position as an early draft pick. Indeed, the Buster Bowl Pipeline (BBP) has Alan at #3, but like any skill evaluation assessment, the BBP can be wrong now and again. Perhaps this is most evident by the BBP having Brandon Bush in the BBP top 10. However, we at the BBP pride ourselves on absolutely nailing, pounding, and drilling the top 5 prospects. Within this range, we do not miss. Thus, ex...

Welcome back to another entry to the Buster Bowl Blog. We have got four more players to introduce, so without further ado, let us dive right in. Dustin Debeau Dustin is a locker room guy. Regardless of the odds, he will put his head down and get to work, evidenced by his performance two years ago. Similar to Bush, Dustin is a captain in this year’s Buster Bowl. Had he been draft eligible he likely would be a middle-to-low tier prospect. The golf game is still a work in progress but as White Goodman would say, “[He’s] got a personality.” His personality is the primary reason why ~86% of prospects in this year’s draft class would prefer to be drafted by Dustin instead of Bush in this upcoming (results from anonymous poll). Dustin’s player comp: David Ross David Ross was the glue that held the Cubs together during their comeback from a 3-1 deficit against the devil worshiping Cleveland Guardians, then referred to as the Cleveland Guardians. His bat was slightly below average, bu...
