Cuban Refugees 5-0 Top 3 - 2 Weeks

Survived a scare from the Chickens. Can't get caught looking ahead against the Thugs this week with Buddies and Brothers coming up weeks 7 and 8.

Burger Buddies 4-1 Top 3 - 21 Weeks

Justin Tucker has been put on notice after a very slow start.

Point Diff. +57

Snapdragons 5-0 Top 5 - 6 Weeks

They've only been tested once all season. Chickens, Brothers, Buddies the next three weeks should change that.

Chunky Chickens 2-3 Top 5 - 13 Weeks

Third in scoring despite a rash of injuries. Have to beat the Dragons this week to get back on track.

Desmond Ridder stepped up and delivered an unlikely win as the Mallards bounced back from their loss to the Dragons. Must win one of next two games if they are serious about being a playoff team this year.
