Gr3g missed a week of the schedule somewhere during Team 6 in Week 12…
Everything is off the board. “We’ll do it LIVE!”
While the schedule is written, the venue has final say on what dates we’ll actually be in the gym.
Some dates will most likely be eliminated due to school events.
As of now, just play along.

2023 was the year of Bridges as City took home their first title. As the original franchise in the League, they’ve played the most games (59), have the most wins (29) and the most losses (30).
D Nags became the first player in League history to break the career 400-point barrier. His next game will be his 50th, another League record.
Money (46 games, 298 points) and Kid A (45 games, 330 points) will each reach 50 games played this year and quite possibly the 400-point mark, respectively, as well.
Porter, T-Roof & Deja have engaged veterans RossTy (Achilles) and Gustafson (Business) about a possible return.Â
The Rhythm fell just short in the Final Series in their second year together.
Since their inception in Year 3, they’ve won 67% of their games (20-10).
They’ve got a First Big 3 (Cope, Cuervo, Trav) and a New Big 3 (Parker, Uncle Jeff, Boogie) and will again be tough to contend with.
Rello has replied “hard maybe” about a return to the League. No word yet from Big Ed $.
The Nets had a tough Final Series but will return most of the core squad.
Availability of stars Baker, Arrows & Juice will be key in their quest. Adding Evinrude to the cast was a real catch.
Will TK and Greeny be back? If not, could adding Hengy & Wooly in free agency be the answer?Â
Last year’s rookie squad of Hearts will return determined to attack with its defensive pressure and long-range shooting.
After going 1-2 in the Finals, Jody Breeze, Rio, Targets, JMills & Good Job James should all return to the mix.Â
Hamlet played a couple games with the Hearts late in the season. Is he the answer in the middle?
The GRR Ligers (aka Ruckus) will return to the game schedule in the Fall.
While their roster has been fluid over the years, the mainstays of Sam Awry, Silky & B. Buckets should all be back in green this season.
TLC has improved his shooting each season. Could there be a return of Moten, Scotty J, Frain Wreck or B Stacks?Â
The Fire took missing out on the Finals to reset and recoup after an incident resulting in a player being suspended for the remainder of the season.
Will Gr3g and Big Baby find a way to rebuild a fledging franchise amid such chaos?
Retaining DBk is the most likely option to start their first off-season working together.Â
Former players I’ll Will, Wall, Berlin & AFord are all on the radar.Â
All former League veterans were contacted just as the league season opened on July 1st.
So far, we’ve heard back from MJ (351points) and Crain.Â

“He’s right there. On my original roster. Tom Shepperd.” -Coach.
Playing without their center of gravity, MVP-caliber big man T-Roof, in the most important game in the history of the franchise, it became obvious early that the City of Bridges knew what was on the line and how to capture the elusive title they’ve been searching for over the last four years.
The ball kept moving as normal but didn’t quite make sense in the first half as the entire team searched continually to the post for the ghost of Roof (out: March Madness surgery) as they weaved in, out and around the 3-point line against a Sixth Street Nets defense struggling throughout the playoffs.
Following a mid-game break, though, the team found its’ way.
Kid A and D Nags retreated to their elbow-wing positions as shooters, Money took his game to the 3G line while Deja and P sliced and diced the lane for some easy buckets.
In the end, it was a 48-31 victory for City as Kid A drained a deep three-pointer as time expired only because the fans were relentless in making sure that buzzer-beater went up.
After three weeks of the round-robin 2023 Finals, City had beat the Hearts 31-26, beat the Rhythm 46-41, and ended the season with the 17-point victory over the Nets.
