Fall Damage

Week 5:

Captain Steph Palomo Schmidt’s ‘Pearl Chen’s Summer Tour’ has hit rock bottom, as every team in the league currently has them in their rear view mirror (reference check). A win over Blue in Week Four had the band amped (*rim shot*), and with every team technically making the playoffs, White is still very much alive (reference check), but their season will fade to black (reference check) quickly if they can’t win more than once (reference check) in five tries…

Lion Low

Week 2:

Captain Chad Goins & ‘Hakuna Mostafa’ are not feeling much love through the first two weeks of play, coming in like a lamb with a lopsided Week One loss, and a (misfortune-aided) close-but-not-quite meeting with ‘the other blue’ in Week Two. This season is expected to be wide open and a bit wacky, and even the lowliest team has a chance for last minute redemption, but…the pride still stings with every loss (see what I did there…pride…lions…fuck, I am so awesome)…

Twist To Open

Even in a season where every team (technically) ‘makes the playoffs’, one team was being written off as having ‘no chance’ before the season even began. Of course (because, of course) that team (Captain Nagy’s ‘SubLime’) would rise up and crush their first opponent of the season, leaving pompous pundits profoundly perplexed. I, for one, have always been high on Lime…not sure why all these other haters started with the preseason slander and shade…some people just have no vision.
