Thanks homercat for the welcome. I know we won't be able to compete here, just hoping to stockpile some cash and try to improve my roster.

Well I haven't scouted any teams because my main goal isn't winning a championship this year. However, Cal does have a strong team for the blue. Yet, I am going to wait until I see how things unfold before I start giving my front runner for winning it all this year.

The stupid randomizer screwed us again. Literally every team in the Big 8 is ranked higher than every team in the Great 8. A year after every Big 8 team had a positive point differential after interleague last season. So dumb...

I am coming down with a cold, the water main up the street broke, and my place is so drafty that I am relegated to the living room as that is the one room that I can keep somewhat consistently warm, but hey it's opening night so it's all good, then again Cal thumps me like a watermelon at the state fair.

Yes the big blue does look stronger than club red. But there is not a clear cut favorite on either side. Opening week is always a hard week to judge how things will shake out. At the end of the day however once spring comes someone will move up, and some will be moving down. Who can stay healthy, who might see players mature in front of their eyes, who can win on the road? These are the questions that will determine the final outcome.

Ya, I'm not planning on being able to compete here. This is just phase II for me. Stockpile as much cash as I can as I revamp my roster. Trying to get younger at a couple of positions. So far, I've been able to increase my weekly income by unloading a couple of guys and increasing my talent as well. I've got one more piece I'm chasing which if I get him, will allow me to unload an aging PF. Once I do that, my moves will be complete and I will ride or die with the crew I have. I don't have the guns to compete with all the big dogs here, but then again, never expected to. Just grab the cash, get relegated, get a decent draft pick and move back up again soon.

Dammit I flubbed my sub pattern. Pissed away a perfectly good opportunity for a road win.

Opening: a high ariel shot of the outside of The penitentiary with the searchlights flashing about.

The Cave is the site with the Bunnies and Lions matching glares with the loser looking the cellar square in the eye.

While in Greensboro the Shockers and Generals get it on with the Victor staying in playoff contention as even at this early stage every game is critical path in the hyper competitive Big 8.

Announcer: This is the story of two conferences, the Blues Magoo's and Club Red

These are the blues, and these are the reds.

In our last episode Sparty surprised the Exiles to keep Pace with Deronimo at 3-0. Tonight in the Fabulous Forum these two face off with the victor being left as the only team in the league to have not felt the sting of defeat.

In our feature presentation for the evening we will be at the litter box to see if Harrisburg can scratch out a win against the kittens.

The Dream hopes to put the nightmare of Saturdays slaughter at the hands of the blizzards as they host the Claws.


The Blizzards travel to New Bedford as the Nasties seek to get back on track after being manhandled by the Mavs.


As for the Mavs they travel to take on the Winners who are looking to sustain the momentum gained by their last second escape against Harrisburg.

The Shocks and Exiles square off as both seek to get back on the winning track.

While at the bottom of the blues the Lions seek to get in the win column against a Generals club seeking to sustain the momentum from a resounding smashing of the Shocks over the weekend

And at Paws arena the Bunnies and Bulldogs face off in a contest that is a true must win for Cal.


Confused? You won't be, well actually you may still might after tonight's episode of BBTV.
