From Golly.Life Wiki

The BB.png Boylston Boogers are a Golly team from the Boylston Street Station in downtown Boston, Massachusetts. The Boogers joined the league in Season 14, when the ATL.png Atlanta Glitter Sharks became the Atlanta Quitter Sharks and quit the Golly league. The Boogers are cross-town rivals with the AA.png Alewife Arsonists ; each year they compete for the MTA Crown.

The Boylston Street Station, home stadium of the BB.png Boylston Boogers , is one of Boston's oldest stations, and is a landmark of historic tile and wrought iron. The design of the station stands in contrast to the Brutalist Concrete Cathedral (a.k.a. Alewife Station, home of the Red Line rivals, the AA.png Alewife Arsonists . Boogers describe Alewife Station as a soulless concrete monstrosity, while the Arsonists will describe Boylston Street Station as a confused, disintegrating burrito of subway tubes and stairwells. The architectural holy war has been greatly exacerbated by Goober Boylston (no relation), an architecture critic for the Boston Tribune and unofficial spokesperson for the Boogers. Boylston is the main author of the Boylston sports column, Boylston on Boylston Violence.

The Boogers take a "Center of the Universe" philosophy, embodied by their team motto, Ex medio omnia (from the center, everything). This stands in direct contrast to the "End of the Line" philosophy of the Arsonists. Boogers fans are "Centerists" who believe that Boylston Street Station is the hub of Boston, and that Boston is the hub of the universe. Boogers often utilize patterns that begin with a center core and emerge outward, and often collapse when reaching the "unimportant" edges of the grid.
