have the current longest winning streak
and are still undefeated. They had a bye
weekend on Week 2 and will take on the
surging Xplosion. Our theorists
explained that they've had bad luck
playing their Week 2 games and they're
hopeful they avoided that. Last loss was
against *gulp* Elements in Week 2 of
