The race for the Wing League 2026 playoffs is at least as hot (and shocking) as our unseasonably toasty San Diego ‘winter’ weather, and with Captain Owen Perks’ Blue finally breaking into the win column with a stunning upset of Sand, it is officially not too late to teach even the underest of underdogs new tricks.

Captain Josh Wirt’s Red flipped places with Captain Will Heinl’s Purple in Week Six, with ‘Gary’s Purple Pretty Patties’ landing below the cut line, and Red finally finding themselves off the hot grill of failure…now bunned and plated with playoff potential.

Both Captain Brennen Abel’s ‘PineAbels Under The Sea’ and Captain Josh Wirt’s ‘Jo-La’ The ExploRed’ earned their first wins of the season, making the playoff picture much less cut and dried heading into the second half of the regular run…

Captain Josh Wirt’s ‘Jo-La’ The Explo-Red’ are at least as lost in the early season goings as I am trying to figure out the ‘La’ part of their (very) tortured team name. At 0-4-0, Red are the only team without a point, in spite of The Map clearly explaining to them that the object of the sport is to score and win. I (for one) still believe this is just a bad start for a good team, but if they don’t find their way soon, they will be swiped out of contention…

Captain Brennen Abel and Captain Josh Wirt…two incredible players who now find themselves at the helm of sunken ships through the first third of the Wing League 2026 season. At 0-3-0, the only direction to swim (or float) is up, and both Captain Abel’s White and Captain Wirt’s Red have big ‘swim meets’ in Week Four against fellow floundering foes. Abel’s White will square off with Captain Owen Perks’ 0-2-1 Blue, while Wirt’s Red will wrestled with Captain Ryan Karns’ 1-2-0 Green. The question of which teams will kiss the bottom goodbye (at least for now) and which teams will come closer to kissing their collective bottoms goodbye will be answered this Sunday…
