The Rush continued their hot streak this week, squeaking by the Hand of Doom 105-98. The Rush have won five in a row and remain the hottest team in Slugdom. The Hellraisers are not lying down though. They remained in a first place tie with The Rush with a resounding 129-87 win over the Flesh Torpedoes. The loss keeps the Flesh from reaching the .500 mark for the first time this season. In a battle for last place, the Ass Clowns pulled off their second win in a row with a 64-46 defeat of the Black and Blues. The loss pulls the Clowns out of the cellar and puts the Blues in it for the first time this year. In one of the closest games of the season, the Gridiron Gastropods narrowly defeated The Spear Chuckers 85-84. The win keeps the Pods in second place, one game back of the lead. The loss sets back the recently upstart Chuckers, whose coach exclaimed at the end of the game "we suck again!." In other action, the Eat My Ass Bitches nearly doubled up Can't Touch This 103-54. The victory keeps the Bitches in a tie for third and makes the playoff hopes dimmer for the This's. Finally, The Tar Babies extended their winning streak with an 88-55 win over The Fashion Police. This keeps the Babies in the playoff hunt and drops the suddenly stale Police (with chick coach) into a tie for third place.
