Since Houston is out, I’m jumping to my second favorite team for the rest of the season.

The LA Glads

So go Chengdu.

This should be an easy 4-0 for Chengdu. The interesting HZ match is next week v Dallas. Lose that, and they’re in danger of missing out completely

im ALL chengdu this match

Unless Spark have improved since yesterday, I don’t see them winning. This will be a fairly easy win for the Hunters. Hope I’m wrong though.

Ah, yes, forgive me. The biggest of gooses.

hey, heres an idea. what if…chengdu bought diya from shanghai. i know its too late for roster changes but imagine

Well Chengdu might have to buy a whole new team next season if the rumors are true.

what rumors? whatre you talking about?

The rumors are that half of the team wants to retire after this season.

I feel like one of the big risks with having players that are so young is that they tend to get homesick more easily than older players.
