The Delaware Corporate Shells (formerly known as the Delaware Corporate Shells ) are a Golly team from the state of Delaware.

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 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. No accounts or descriptions of any game in the Delaware Corporate Shells home stadium may be televised, retransmitted, or rebroadcast, in full or in part, without the express written consent of the entire executive board of the Delaware Corporate Shells, which has never happened.

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.

Embezzlement Scandals

The Delaware Embezzlement Scandals are a series of scandals involving the Delaware Corporate Shells . These scandals have mainly hit during seasons in which the Shells are performing badly.

The scandals have been underreported, and mentions of the scandals laregely scrubbed from published literature, due to numerous conditions related to class action settlements paid out by the Delaware Corporate Shells, who have yet to make a single public statement about the scandals.

There has been some speculation in Delaware newspapers that, due to the frequency of these embezzlement scandals, the Delaware Corporate Shells may have some kind of proclivity toward money, and an irrational, possibly irresistable desire to obtain more of it. This has not been confirmed, but has resulted in multiple lawsuits involving Delaware newspapers and various shell corporations.

Shells in the Toroidal Cup

In Toroidal/Season 21 the Delaware Corporate Shells were suspended from the league pending ongoing litigation related to the Cancel Texas Memo. They were replaced by the Vegas Vampires .

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. While this would normally lead to unwanted attention and investigation by law enforcement, fictitious company fronts do not arouse the least amount of suspicion in the state of Delaware, so the hologram of the corporate headquarters occupies a small portion of the Wilmington skyline.
