Those who have been on my teams before know that I post notifications and weekly events on every team member's profile page but other than that try to keep wall-spamming down to a minimum. If it bugs anyone just tell me "I got this" and I stop.


This season, regular season seeding actually means something so lets not miss picks. If anyone sees they've got some **** coming along that may prevent them from making picks, just let me know with time to replace them (if it's only a temporary thing I don't even mind replacing them with someone who picks everything and bringing them back when their schedule clears up, I'm loyal like that).

We got ourselves one hellova team. Let's break some bones!!!

I need my teammates opinions. I've been flip flopping on Al/Lauzon. Who do you have, and why?

The way I see it is its Al's boxing vs JLaus subs. The fight starts standing, can Jlau take him down before Al lights him up? I dont think he will so I picked Al

well, I think he will have a hard time trying to get the fight to the ground, but if it gets there it's pretty much over. and Lauzon is pretty durable too, so I'm going with Lauzon.

I took Lauzon by sub in the 1st. I could see it going into the second with maybe the first round being contested on the feet. Iaquinta literally put himself in a choke in his fight against Mitch Clarke, and I don't think Clarke is nearly as good on the ground as Lauzon. To me this fight is just a matter of when it goes to the mat, because when it does Al's ****** IMO.



Hope you guys are ready to bail me out on this card. I took 7 betting dogs, so I'm either gonna do well, or crash and burn like the Hindenburg.

I'm sure Al watched the Mike Johnson fight.  This fight will look like that one.

Dat solo win. We needed that fo sho. My score will probably be dropped, so you going off is helpful. I took way too many dogs that didn't pan out. Since my score is probably the lowest as of now I'm going to keep my UFC picks the way they are. If the 7 or so dogs I took on UFC pan out maybe it'll help out. Might as well take the risk since I'm the low man on the totem pole.

Wouldn't worry ... longer weekends are our bread and butter since we're the best team ever assembled for BLC and statistics tend to even out during the longer ones ... 

Also, we're known slow starters ... I think we've lost the first event of every weekend so far.

After dropping the lows, you're actually up BY 10 FREAKING POINTS.

We like to win by the smallest margins possible in order to really tear the heart out of the opposition. It's mental warfare and we're here to drop mind**** bombs.

Those FIVE FREAKING POINTS are going to eat at me until the rematch.  I'm hoping to win that by several hundred.

That would be quite the trick, since all points are multiples of 5.
