Parking Lot Pimps
| They've

thanks to a double-header in Week 5.
Whether the extra rest helps them or
breaks them will be decided when they
take on Foundation, a team that isn't
flying under the radar any longer.

Xplosion
| They
were two players from becoming a
Championship team last season and they
solved that in the off-season by adding
3 rookies to the line-up. The team is
reaping from the benefits and Global Gym
does not want to see them. The
Camarena Brothers were humbled last
season when they lost in Rivalry Week,
50-29, against their former teammates.
The end result this season COULD be the
other way around. |

The Angkor Wat-Zero Balance faction is

Freestyle. Reigning Defensive Player of
