The Corporate Shells are consistently ranked among the worst team in the league, in addition to being rated least likeable, despite many winning seasons and championship series appearances, partly due to the fact that no one has ever seen a Deleware Corporate Shells game, except for a select few millionaires and billionaires.

The origin of the team involves an accounting error at a bank that resulted in an anonymous customer who was supposed to receive a $200 refund actually received a $1.7 trillion refund. The bank went out of business and could not hire enough lawyers to get the money back. That anonymous customer went on to bankroll the entire Delaware Corporate Shells enterprise. The Corporate Shells home stadium, called The Lux, consisting of several giant walls of expensive high-end luxury suites, which typically sit empty during games.

The Corporate Shells home stadium, called The Lux, consists of 50 exclusive high-end luxury suites, each containing a 9-hole golf course. These luxury suites are only occupied by season ticket holders, who also pay dearly to jump to the top of the 10-year waiting list for Delaware Corporate Shells season tickets. Access to the stadium and adjacent 3-mile radius is strictly limited to an exclusive, elite group, and it is an international no fly zone.

Delaware Corporate Shells games are all televised, but the single-season package to watch all Delaware Corporate Shells games costs approximately 100,000 times more than the single-season package to watch games for any other Golly team.

Fans have expressed frustration at the fact that each time the Delaware Corporate Shells get to the postseason, fans have to wait until the post-game reports to find out what happened, being unable to afford to watch the game live. Each time the Corporate Shells get to a Cup series, the series is collectively referred to as "The Forgotten Series." Not "a" forgotten series, but "the" forgotten series, despite multiple series earning the nickname. No one can differentiate.

Corporate Headquarters

As with most shell companies, the buck has to stop at an office building in Delaware, and the Corporate Shells are no different in this regard. The following promotional poster features an Artists Union rendering of the DECO corporate headquarters.

The corporate headquarters are in fact a hologram. The actual headquarters are located in the basement of the adjacent parking garage structure, with the roof of the parking garage housing the hologram projector. Since fictitious company fronts do not arouse the least amount of suspicion in the state of Delaware, the hologram of the corporate headquarters has never been questioned.
