<DIV>Wilmington, DE (AP) - Fans of the Delaware Encryptors professional (though some would argue this) football team have scheduled a sit-in at the Brandywine Zoo on Friday to express their outrage at the team's performance.</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Lester Primavera, the organizer of the event, is saying enough is enough, "We've been here three years, right? I'd like to say this team has broken my heart, but to be honest, you have to almost achieve something and come up short in order for that to happen. This team hasn't even been close to doing that."</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>The sit-in is scheduled to take place between 1pm and 3pm inside the Monkey Barn, usually one of the zoo's least popular attractions. Primavera states, "Yeah, we wanted to sit where they have those giant Australian guinea pigs, but the zoo wouldn't allow it. Once they mentioned the Monkey Barn we negotiated and the zoo is going to kick in noseplugs and a free snow cone."</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>Looking at it, the 'Cryptkeepers (as their fans are called) may have a point (or multiple points). First, Delaware is tied for a league-worst 14 wins in the league's 3 year history. Second, they are the ONLY WOOF team to not have a single 100-yard rusher. Their starting quarterback is the career leader in times sacked with 163 (a MERE 58 more than the next sack leader "pretender"). On GM Scarborough's watch, their offense has finished 22nd, 30th and 31st in total offense. On defense, which Scarborough has concentrated on, the team has finished 2nd, 19th and 21st. They've also lead the entire league in turnovers 2 of the 3 years.</DIV><DIV></DIV><DIV>When asked to comment, GM Scarborough was unavailable, but a message on his answering machine stated that he was heading to Tibet for spiritual guidance.</DIV>
