Force Majeure
|
1-0
|
Explosive
offense + air-tight defense + full game recap by the captains, complete
with excel stat sheet = Best 1Ls in week one, best team in week one.

VaSE
|
1-0
|
Who
called them fragile? VaSE embarassed the Libel Junta worse
than
the commenters on Above the Law. Time will tell, however,
whether
the members of the Sports & Entertainment Journal can keep
winning
once they start facing more formidable opponents.

Big Boppers
|
1-0
|
We
are anticipating that Section B will be one of the main 1L contenders
this fall. Furthermore, we are planning on skipping class on
Wednesday to watch the Big Boppers face off against Force Majeure in
what we expect will be a major 1L showdown.

Cannibals
|
1-0
|
These
3Ls have stuck together since their formative days in Section
C.
Like a fine wine, they have only gotten better with age; they appear
prepared for their most successful season to date.

Comrades
|
1-0
|
Section
C '12 posted an impressive walk-off victory over a difficult opponent
in "I" of the Tiger. The Comrades showed their composure by
pulling out the win despite Section I's efforts to trim 10 people from
its lineup late in the game.

Hoo-tang Clan
|
1-0
|
The
Clan had two big innings against L Diablo in its 12-0 victory this
week, but was shut down in all other frames. Brace yourself
for
the upcoming weeks, Section H--not all of your opponents are going to
roll over so easily.

Kamikaze
|
1-0
|
Section
K edged out the A Team in a thriller this week. We loved the
spirit that both teams brought to the game. We liked
Kamikaze's
fundamentals even more.

El Facial Challenge
|
1-0
|
Section
E beat Tenacious D 8-4 this week. More importantly, its
members
changed the name of their team from "Facial Challenge" to "El Facial
Challenge" amid mounting criticism that the former title didn't begin
with their section letter. This is like trying to patch a rip
in
the seat of your jeans with duct tape: it gets the job done,
but
you still look like a damn fool.

T-Pain

The 2 runs given up by T-Pain in
its win this week were 2 runs too many.

Schmalzbach Surprise
|
1-0
|
Here's an email sent out to the
law reviewers following their victory over the VJILantes this week:
"About
Schmalzbach Surprise, the NGSL's website predicts '45 free agents can't
make up for James Nelson's departure,' but we kicked VJIL's ass
today. (About VJIL, NGSL says 'JV to Law Review in intellect,
prestige, and athletic prowess.') Good game everyone; the
team's
going to be pretty sweet this year. I will send an email
soliciting participation [in next week's game] a few days before
it. Mark your calendars and plan your callbacks accordingly."
These kids can win at softball AND get callbacks?!? What say
you, VJIL?

J C Superstars

Decent win over a normally
decent team, but certainly nothing super about it.

The A Team
|
0-1
|
Kudos
to Section A for mounting a thrilling comeback against a strong Section
K performance and pushing the game into extras. In the end,
however, the A team didn't have enough juice left to finish the
job. We think the Section A vs. Section H matchup this week
will
be a good one.

What happened, Baby
Carrot? Too many callbacks? We were expecting
better things from you.

VJILantes
|
0-1
|
We
heard VJIL complaining about last week's power rankings at a journal
dinner outing this week. Hey, don't blame us just because you
have an inferiority complex.

"I" of the Tiger
|
0-1
|
We
think Section I might be a good team if it focused a little more on
having a good time on the field and a little less on cutting 10 people
out of its lineup late in the game in order to mount a failing
comeback. You can learn some life out there on Copeley, you
know.

The Jacksons
|
0-1
|
While
Section E's members requested a name change because they are boneheads,
Section J sought to change its name from "The Jeffersons" to "The
Jacksons" this week. Why? "Because we thought our
Dandelion
skit, 'The Jacksons,' went really well." Unfortunately, their
first softball game did not go well, as they got housed by the Big
Boppers 20-5.

Tenacious D

You may have lost the game,
Section D, but we loved your spirit on the field and in the
dugout. Don't stop believin'.

L Diablo
|
0-1
|
Speaking
of spirit, L Diablo ("Playing Devil's Advocate Since 2009") showed up
with sweet uniforms and an even sweeter team chant. We don't
remember how it went, but we're pretty sure it intimidated the Hoo-Tang
Clan...if only until the teams took the field.

Jedi Softball Team
|
0-1

We are expecting improvement in
leaps and bounds from the Jedi Softball Team. There's nowhere
to go but up...

Gophers
|
0-1
|
You
would think that after two whole years together, the Gophers would have
developed some chemistry out on the field. They gave away
their
first one to the Cannibals without much of a fight.

Gunners

Hot
pink uniforms? Check. Enthusiastic
Captains?
Check. Obnoxious Ump? Check. Devastating
shut-out
loss? Oh, most definitely.

Junta
|
0-1
|
Perhaps
if the Junta pumped themselves up before their softball games the way
they do before the Libel Show performances in the spring, they wouldn't
lose 23-0.
