Foundation 2.0
| They
might be wearing Knicks inspired jersesy
but spectators are calling them Lakers
2001 because of their on/off light
switch tactic. It got so bad that
reigning Platinum Division Defensive
Player of the Season, Matt Lewis,
had to come off the injured list just to
make sure the team played defense. Week
6 features the long awaited match up of
ankle breakers vs. high-flyers, B.C.
vs. Flight. OHHH BABYYY!! |

The Problem
The
problem is... there's no competition
left.
The
problem is... Week 7 is two weeks away.
The problem is... their key players are
injured.
The problem is... they have a deep bench
rotation that can fill the roles and
still get the job done like they done
did the Stunners on Week 5. |

Deacons
The
Stunners vs. Deacons re-match for Week 6
will officially get Rivalry Week into
high gear. Fact: Difference between
Deacons and Stunners is only 2 points.
Fact: Deacons won the Championship for 2
seasons straight.
Will their 3rd match-up be the charm for
the Stunners? |

has this theory. "Ever since the team
posted comments on MySpace, they've been

don't know but maybe they should stay
away from the boards." It will be
difficult considering they're facing an

back from break. It's becoming customary

Balance came back from vacation to face

that against Empire's Main Event. On a

Dear
Rocky Anciano,
While you were gone eating Rice-a-roni
treats in San Francisco and shopping at
the Gap like you usually do, we were
busy holding it down here at the Rec.
Coincidentally, we won 2 straight and
whether you think this is ironic will be
something I'll have to evaluate in the
future weeks. Nice jersey, but uhh, we
might need it back at the end of the
season if you know what I mean. Jasss
Keeeddiing.
Layin down the Law,
Lawrence Pelagio, GM
