Deacons
| Their
title defense is off to a good start.
Jester Jovan had another big
all-around game and Platinum's,
Rookie of the Season, Mark Moton,
showed Gold's ROS Andrew Knox how
tough it is in the higher division.
Deacons Showed Knox in Week 1, now it's
DSK in Week 2. |

Thrillers. Ranked 5th.Thrillers. 5th?
The team is now 3-21 overall in four

shot-blockers (Lalo Arroyo, Kris
Carrillo, Melvin Watkins) who at one
point led the league in blocked shots.
Their growing pains isn't over yet and
they are using their game against Bank

| This is

Hungry Hungry Hippos
| Their
fans were there, they wanted to win, and
they were hungry for their first win.
They should add another Hungry to H3
because all they did was shoot the ball
with everyone selfishly trying to score.
They used 1 play throughout the whole
game after months of practicing and they
easily lost to H5. They'll face the
Underdawgs next. |

and Tommy was more than happy for the
re-assignment. "I am the Fantasy player

pass, I score, I make people laugh. I
wasn't used right, and now..." (Cut the
