The Problem
|
"After Week
7, they're going to start suck." That
was the soundbyte that motiveated them
as the clobbered Foundation. GM
Dennis Adams made a point when he
said his biggest opponent might be
overconfidence from here on out. Their
ultimate goal is the Championship so 7-0
is nothing to them. |

Young Gunnaz
|
Their only
loss in their Sophomore season was
against Black Out but Young Gunnaz have
been on a roll and their biggest
challenge lies on Week 8. Remember when
Black Out had a double-header last
season and won both games to secure a
Playoffs spot? Well, Y.G. will face the
undefeated Problem and the reeling Zero

too. If their team was as dedicated as
some of the other teams were, Black Out
would be on top of the charts.

They
rookies need to make adjustment next
season. Whether its dropping down to
Platinum or recruiting new players, a
lot of pressure for a young GM,
Joseph Cha. Admirable that
they haven't quit and their back-to-back
games this weekend proved they have no
fear and is ready for any challenge.

So much for

there's no way he can dominated in
Platinum. Well, he's doing it again, and
we're repeating this statement again

trying to cheat? The team was
automatically given a forfeit and as a

You know he's hurting but GM Andrew
Persaud is laying low this week.
Basketball is a game of runs and this 2

That's what the GM is doing, taking it
