Pour one out for the remains of the two-man crowd. Who is going to stand between the pipes for them now? Can they also play drums? The sidelines of these two teams couldn&#8217;t be more opposite.

But Math still isn&#8217;t over that play-off loss from 2014, so it&#8217;s even I guess. The Norri are back in full force and Cherie brought even MORE female hockey talent (welcome Riveter, Amber Moore). That being said, Sky Fighters seem to have some fresh faces, but keeping in line with tradition, I don&#8217;t think many of them know how to smile. Alas, Mia\u2019s charm isn\u2019t enough to topple Sam\u2019s headband.<\/p>\n<p><em>Prediction: <\/em>Math by 1, unless Roman&#8217;s brother learns how to smile.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Corlears Hookers at Fresh Kills<br \/><\/strong>The Hookers have steadily dropped, not only in standings, but also in hate-ability. Is it because Pete brings his kids around&#8230;or just the presence of more hate-able teams like Filthier and the Fuzz? Let\u2019s not forget, Ariel has some pretty cute kids too. I\u2019m looking forward to the Gabe on Eitel match-up, but wait, that won\u2019t happen&#8230;Eitel will be too busy hanging out with Barch by the Kill\u2019s net.<\/p>\n<p><em>Prediction: <\/em>Hookers by 1, they have a reputation to uphold.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rehabs at Fuzz<br \/><\/strong>I love Sena and Ryann as much as (probably more than) the next girl, but do they allow <em>any<\/em> other women to play? Is Hector hurt again? Or is he simply reminding us what $h0wT!m!ng is? Congrats to the Fuzz, instantly the most universally disliked team in the league, before the season even started! But that was the point, right? I think Ramirez is in net for Rehabs, but I can\u2019t keep track of his career. Good match-up, but he&#8217;s looking at a tough day with Jeff and Gil still looking for their first win.<\/p>\n<p><em>Prediction:<\/em> Fuzz by 1, but Glanzer finishes -2.<\/p>\n<p><strong>LBS, Inc. at Filthier<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10276\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/IMG_0398.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10276\" src=\"http:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/IMG_0398-300x248.jpg\" alt=\"Timmy baby is looking younger already.\" width=\"300\" height=\"248\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-10276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/IMG_0398-300x248.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/IMG_0398.jpg 900w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-10276\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Timmy-baby is looking younger everyday.<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Former BTSH champs face off on this epic Sunday.
