That sucks. Fuckin&#8217; Llort. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Anyways, Karma is coming off a decisive victory over the Riots where league sweetheart, Isaac, scored two goals and Heather played her best game yet. \u00a0I&#8217;m not just saying a girls name just to put it there. \u00a0You dolts know I don&#8217;t do that. \u00a0She was in great spots all game and almost scored. \u00a0Lisa got checked into the fence and one of the refs was laughing so hard he forgot to call the actual penalty. \u00a0Luckily Ryann was reffing and did.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_14785\" style=\"width: 498px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/cobra-double-d.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14785\" class=\"wp-image-14785 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/cobra-double-d.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"488\" height=\"435\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/cobra-double-d.jpg 488w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/cobra-double-d-300x267.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 488px) 100vw, 488px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-14785\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Campbell might be receiving praise, but Liam and Nabataz are doing all the work.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On the other side, the Rachels of Cobra Kai are in first place after disposing of the Cro-okers 4-0. \u00a0This guy Campbell is pretty good in net, eh? \u00a0Paul B. scored his first two goals of the season to lead the way and could be due for more. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prediction<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: None shall pass one against Campbell. \u00a0Nabatz will be like James Ellsworth while leading LJ and Goth Rachel to distract the turds on Karma, while jerks like Liam and Sebastian score and get all the credit. \u00a0Will will also score but he&#8217;s not a jerk. 4-0 Kobra Kai over Karma.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Gremlins at Corlears Hookers<\/b><br \/>\n<em>by Isaac<\/em><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_14787\" style=\"width: 498px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/hookers-d-17.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14787\" class=\"wp-image-14787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.btsh.org\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/hookers-d-17.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"488\" height=\"360\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/hookers-d-17.png 554w, https:\/\/www.miyagimedia.com\/bruise\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/hookers-d-17-300x221.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 488px) 100vw, 488px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-14787\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">You can never count out the Hookers when these two are in the game.<\/p><\/div>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">On paper, the Gremmies and Hookers are nearly identical. \u00a0Both have earned 12 points by winning six games with only three losses, are 2-2-0 in their division, have legitimate scoring threats (Erich &amp; Cody and Sarah &amp; Tiffany &amp; Jenna), ball moving defenders (McAdams and Danilo) and quality protectors between the pipes (Batuwantudawe and Longwell). \u00a0So what does separate these two? \u00a0Well for starters, one is captained by a savvy league veteran with the demeanor of Ferdinand the Bull and the other by a blundering buffoon. \u00a0(We\u2019ll let you figure that one out for yourselves.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prediction<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: the Gremlins defeated the Hookers earlier this year and will sweep the series on Sunday by 5-3 with Tim finally getting on the scoring sheet.

This is the time of year when collecting points isn\u2019t the only thing that matters &#8211; it is creating and sustaining an identify too (that becomes paramount for all teams during the second half of the season).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Are the Fuzz the underachieving bag of talent that are collapsing under the weight of last season\u2019s success? \u00a0Are the Demons last year\u2019s Hookers that regressed and tanked in order to rebuild? \u00a0These questions may not be answered in just one game, but at least we\u2019ll be learning more about who they are. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Prediction<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: the team you love to hate outduels the team you used to hate with Fuzz taking this one 4-2.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Butchers at Gouging Anklebiters<\/b><br \/>\n<em>by Richiehero<\/em><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Judging by Marko&#8217;s Instagram this will be played 4 on 4 with her and Creamy making out at center court the whole time.
