In case anyone wasn't sure, you really shouldn't underestimate the Virginia Hustlers.

El Paso v. Virginia: El Paso should continue to make some noise in the East as long as they can keep playing teams like Virginia. They have already shown that they can compete with the average to mediocre, but need to prove to the league they are for real. They just won't get that chance against Virginia. Easy win to go 4-1


Final score: 42-41 Hustlers

A 2-3 record does not equate to "out of their league", bud. Let's not overstate the ability of the teams in this league. Hustlers are a perfectly acceptable A3 team. Championship caliber? No. Can't have a 32 team league full of 32 championship caliber teams this low in the tiers, though. Someone has to play spoiler. We're perfectly happy to do so.

We don't expect to win the championship, but we do expect to show off legitimate weaknesses in more powerful teams that other GMs can exploit provided that our busy coordinators have enough time and inclination to worry about scouting. For a casual group of players that has never signed a single starter that was not a personal friend of an original team member, we perform admirably.

But please continue to consider us "out of our league." It's good bulletin board material.

Ok, so maybe not quite of your league. We'll say this. If you have the toughest part of your schedule out of the way, you MAY make it to the playoffs, but I doubt it. GL

They one the first round and done award I think


We did! You should see the trophy. Badass! Welcome back Toric! How's moving been treating ya?


Man it's driving me nuts...

we close Friday.. they moved it up on us a week.. Then decided they needed more closing money.. to the tune of 5k more.. That was just so easy to come up with on a few days notice....

We have the current house 3/4th packed up. I'm tripping over boxes.

I've taken off all of next week to get it done. But in truth we were not even planning to move till the Friday after turkey day. that's when some of my friends get together to move everything..

Like I said though, they moved up closing now.. so my wife wants to start moving this Friday after we sign everything. meaning that everything that we can fit in a car over the next few days gets moved.. so when next Friday rolls around all we need to do is grab the big stuff and drop it in place..

No internet or Direct TV till the Friday after turkey day.. Although i am hoping to catch a wireless signal on my lap top. If not I'll leave my computer at the old house till next week.... But I won't be on much..

So ya it's a bit stressful in the end it's worth it! We love the house! it's freaken huge.. I have a bar with a pool table waiting for me in the basement. (I think) they were not sure if they were leaving the pool table.. They wanted some extra $$ for it.. But they also let on that they didn't want to move it.. Thus I am rolling the dice. I told them that they could leave it if they didn't want it but that i had no interest in it... I also told them that they could leave anything else they didn't want to move.. I looked around 2 nights ago (the outside of the house) and there riding mower was still in the Shed.. so maybe I get lucky..

Thanks for asking.

Nice man! I don't know where you live, but I sure as hell would not want to move in November. If it's anything like here, fuck that. Windchill is supposed to be in lower 20s today. Wow! 5k with only a few day's notice. If that ain't some shit, I don't know what is! Sucks you'll miss the NU-CU game the day after Turkey day! I can tell you're dying to watch it! LOL GL with the move man!

Kansas v. Inferno: Kansas is playing better than they have in a long, long time, but haven't really played anybody yet. Week 5 will be different. They will lose, and lose big! Mark my words!



good call.
i thought it was going to be closer.
