RECORD

STREAK
1 - Lady Air

The defending Champs are back and they take on rookie team, We Got Game. No one was happier than Coach Jason Harris last season and he needs to have the team prepared because there’s 3-4 teams in the Women’s Division that can contend for the title this season.
STATS 0 - 0

2 - Lady's Ball Club

Lady’s Ball Club, nWo The Pack…why all the name changes? They were the only team last season that had a different line-up every week last season so in a way it does make sense.
STATS 0 - 0

3 - ALL IN

A forfeit in the Playoffs wasn’t the best way to end the season. Will they use that forfeit as their motivation to get back into the Playoffs?
STATS 0 - 0

4 - Just Playin

A lot of their players are going on vacation during the season and the chemistry will be in question throughout the season. Like they said, they’re Just Playin.
STATS 0 - 0

5 -   We Got Game

Anthony Santos has been one of the top GMs in the league this past year. His coaching alone should get We Got Game into the Finals. Just wondering…a lot of players in the Men’s Division are suddenly coaching Women’s teams. Thanks a lot Drake…(Best I Ever Had)
STATS 0 - 0

-
6 - 30's Rock

The former D-Ballers players are starting their own team and if last season was any indication of how strong their team is, well they should be back in contention this season. They lost to Lady Air in the Finals…could they get back and avenge defeat?

Where are all the Diamond teams? Where is Omar Alameddine. Let’s just hope everyone is on vacation because the Diamond Division only has 5 teams so far.

2 - B3 Sports Training 
Dion Baily's showing at the tournament was so strong, a lot of teams are asking if he could play for them.
STATS 0 - 0

3 - Young Gunnaz

Would they ever move down just so Relics can try and compete in Diamond? Relics do not want to move up only because their core players are already part of Young Gunnaz. Y.G. will never go Platinum… but you know what they say, never say never.
STATS 0 - 0

-
4 - Foundation

Every season, in the beginning, usually Week 1, Foundation has this idea of coming back and dominating like they did two Summers ago. The promise to bring back Yayboe, Ryan The Kid, and Bone Collector happens every season and once again, we’re wondering if they’ll follow through.

1 - SICKWIDIT

After a Finals appearance, it looks like SICKWIDIT should be ranked #1 because Relics is long gone. There’s a saying they say, “Third time is the charm.” Will SWI return to the Finals and win in their 3rd attempt?

It’s been a tough year so far for nWo/USUCK - Two Runner-up appearances in consecutive Tournaments, and two straight Semifinals losses. Will the Summer Season give them a different finish?

USUCK had the last laugh last season and B-Junkies are back to avenge an early elimination. Not making the Playoffs, will they bring back former MVP of the League, Henry Frierson?

4 - The A-Team
GM Danny Medina can’t say his team is a choker any more especially after The Upper Hand won the Lower Division Bracket in the 2nd Tournament. He would probably be satisfied with that win but to get him motivated for the Summer, THE A-TEAM HAS NOT SEEN ANYTHING PAST THE 1st ROUND, T-MAC!

5 - Finest

We’ll find out how well they did a week from now. Word has it that they’re playing without Jeremy Hunt and GM Nate Bautista is confident his team can get it done.

TWITTER (n8bautista): haha yea we got a good squad still. Won a ship without jeremy before...we'll be alright

6 - Parking Lot Pimps
Most would be disappointed with not making the Playoffs but a 4-4 record and a tie-breaker scenario should keep PLP’s heads up. One thing GM Sam Yeung can work on is attendance and their guys should be there at every game.
STATS 0 - 0

7 - Them Guys
Will Them Guys make like San Andreas and shake things up? They didn’t make the Playoffs last season and GM Daniel Montes couldn’t control the squad. Word has it that a 5-time Champion has joined Them Guys this season.

If there was a Biggest Loser contest, GM  of the League Ron Hernandez would have won hands down. His dedication to his P90x workout has paid off…now if he can get his sharp-shooter Rodney Ching to go on P90, then Assassins would have a chance at the division title.
