WPC Season 5, Week ONE!

Yes, hello its me Jason again with the week 1 predictions of this 13 week WPC Season and some awesome match up's this week. More on them later lets take a look at the EXPO from last night. Ant from LPL took it and cammed all his games so single handedly took LPL to joint top of the EXPO Championship along with, yes you guessed it SS! It was a great turn out with every team other than TC(because pommy was too slow) having atleast one player in. Jordy was the sole XP player and got them a runners up spot for his new team in WPC and that was a great effort. LAst season's WPC Champs hosted it in Sweet Dreams and they did ok getting 5 to jump and scoring 8 Points. Jordy and Ant stand out to me though as they kept there league's near the top on there own. If LPL and XP can get more players then X8B and SS(who I think will fight this out) will take some catching. As for the new guys, REGS got replaced by the ultra active CM team, where Lukas was everyones tip to win the KickOff but failed to do so and the surprise was mrs.dequietstorm had a great run giving SPS 5 points with CM only recieving the soletry Point. I still expect them to challenge this season.

As for this week, Please remember to set up your Camtasia properly as the 6v6 matches are all Cam and will now really kick in as there are a lot of teams that are new this season. I had the pleasure of talking to ben the captain from X8B about this coming seasona nd last season this is what was said.

Jason: Hello and welcome to WPC 'The Interview' with Ben from X8b. Welcome ben. Lets start by asking what you thought about Season 4 and what you expect from season 5 withit going to one big league and a 13 week season, and it being all cam?

Ben: hi =) thanks for having me.. season 4 went very smoothly in my eyes, plenty of competition and good clean games through out and i expect nothing but the same for season 5. The one big league format will be a nice change I think because we'll get a chance to play each team instead of keeping focus on our small group within the divisions. A downside that I don't usually like about one big league is only being able to play each team one; no chance to get revenge if/when we lose to them .. Couple of new teams coming in for this season looks like, and a couple merging and all that. The cam rule won't be an issue as long as the ref will be able to handle it and all that jazz. And with the addition of more admins, don't think that'll be a problem. With those new teams coming on board, maybe they'll be less experience and run into troubles with cam setup and playing with it? Idk only time will tell, but it'll be interesting to see which new teams come out the gate and make a name for themselves

Jason: Thank you for the great answer. What teams are the ones to wtch this season in your eyes because you have been tipped for a playoff spot. Can you win it like some of your bullish players think? And do you have any tricks up your sleeve in the player department?

Ben: welp, right off the bat gotta watch out for XP, that team will be dominant for sure I'd think.. seeing them make it to MLP playoffs, and now with the addition of some players from PFN, they'll make it deep into the season. LPL, they're consistantly good seems like and will most likely be good yet again. Pool Outlaws, don't know much about them besides they play in Under Pressure I think? They might get some of the players from the cam comps running in there and pull out a nice team. UO, SPS, MIB, FR .. don't really know those teams and have yet to look at their players, but you never know what to expect so we'll bring our best for sure. Now about our team.. we'd like to have the confidence of making it to the playoffs again this season. Unfortunately, we've been having some bad luck when making it there though lol.. PRO, MLP 7v7, MLP 5v5, WPC.. we've lost Rd 1 each time making it to playoffs in those interleagues. We've been having to rough luck when it comes down to crunch time, but hopefully that'll break soon. And we do have some guys trying to rally up some new players for us lol, so guess you'll just have to wait and see how that turns out.

Jason: Again a good answer now for a random question. who would you want on your interleague team that has never played for X8B if you could choose anyone off ypool?

Ben: Dam lol good question. Obviously I would want you on the team because you're my secret lover according to some people <3 lol jk, ummm.. I'd probably have to pick Ant, even though I know he'd never play for us because he can't stand Stephen I think. Everybody knows him, everybody knows how good he is, and he'd be able to pull off wins week after week. Idk if I just put my foot in my mouth, I don't really follow his stats in interleagues, but I can imagine their pretty solid for the most part.

Jason: LOL great answer and yes Ant has very good stats for LPL. Kerry went for Ketan, you gone for Ant and Me(I will take that lol) I am going to keep a chart I think lol. Who will be your star player this season and why and also give me a name of a player less well known who you expect a big season from?

Ben: For star players on the team, two guys stick out: Adam and Conor. Something about these guys that when they're playing at their best, I feel more secure for a win. Adam's a good all around player. He'll go for the run when he sees it and has the ability to snook pretty solid too. He's very supportive of the team which is nice to see as well. Conor comes in clutch for us when we need him to. He has a run break in him and has nice control with the cue ball. However, he has a mouth on him and will speak out when things get heated, which might be the kryptonite to his superman (lol, yeh that sounds lame). As for the not so known players I'd like to pick myself lol.. many know me as the captain of the team, but I'd rather be turning heads with my playing ability. I don't claim to be good, because I'm far from it ( still missing those dam top rights =\ ) .. but if I were to pull off a couple wins here and there maybe I'd get a bit more credit to my name.. Dan (big_pokerdan) has been getting plenty of experience in and I'd like to see him have a nice season for us. As long as he can keep his nerves together and pull off the wins when we need him to the most, he could become a nice surprise to most. But, like I said before, we might be getting some new guys on board this season; it's still up in the air atm, but who knows what'll happen.

Jason: Well your not allowed to say your not very good lol. I have 2 more questions for you one serious and then i will finish on my signeture cheese question. Where do YOU think you will finish and are you worried about UO after the scare they gave you last season?

Ben: Ask that question to any captain and they'd like to see their team finish at the top for the season. With the guys we have, we have the potential of making it to the finals as long as things go our way. Ideally, I put ourselves amongst the top 4 behind LPL, LS, XP .. There is going to plenty of competition going around with 14 teams in. As for UO, gotta expect the best from them each time. We'll make sure to not put ourselves in a position like that again (hopefully, lol).

Jason: well ben its been a pleasure and i am sur eit will be a good season for you and X8B just keep conor in lone and you will be fine, I will end on my last question what is your favourite cheese and why?

Ben: Hmm, I saw this question coming and I couldn't decide between two. The first would be American Singles.. a nice grilled cheese sandwich with that stuff, delicious. But the close second choice would be string cheese, lol.. something about peeling bit by bit off brings out the kid in me. And gotta love the dumb riddles that come along with them.

Jason: lol you been a great sport gl this season

Ben: tyvm thanks again for having me, take it ez

So thats what Ben had to say and X8B have a interesting match this week. Lets crack on with the matches.

Match 1

Xtreme Poolerz vs True Champs

Date and Time: Monday 7th September @ 6pm

Room: Break It Up

Ref: Nigel
Admin and tape watcher: Shelle

Probable Teams:

XP - Cubby, Kerry, Indiana_elite, Jordy, Nick and Pro.jeremy

TC - Dawn, Mike, Pommy, Travis, Bryan and Ross(kingvaughan)

Key Men:

XP: Jordy

TC: Pommy

The Script:

So this is my new way of doing WPC predictions. The script is how will the game go. XP were meant to have Jordy as Captain, but now thats gone to Cubby as the PFN crew come on in to help out a already strong XP team in the likes of former PFNer Indiana and Jeremy seems like hes back from the Cases ban and Kerry espeicially does well in WPC. They play a TC team who have added Bryan(pastfan) and Ross(kingvaughan) to there already strong roster with Dawn, Pommy and Trav already there. This match will be a close one where the favourites for WPC XP will need to show they can win big matches and this match is as good as it starts for XP. TC on the other hand will be looking to show me that I have there season finish completely wrong. This will go to thematch 6 and I see the opening match a shut out.

Score:

3-3 and Pommy saves TC yet again.

Match 2

Freedom vs Lucky Shots

Date and Time: Tuesday 8th September @ 6pm

Room: Beetle Spot

Ref: Steven

Probable Teams:

FR: Petey, Ashley, Dan, Sukio, Chris and Kimbo

LS: Aaron, Chris, Tony, mvp.douchebag, Shane and JD

Key Men:

FR: Sukio

LS: JD

The Script:

This is a tough opening match away from home for the Champions! Freedom come back into WPC and will most probably stay the whole season and will turn a few heads. Lucky Shots come in as the Champions with a brand new Captain looking to leave his stamp on WPC. JD is the key man for LS because the question is has he improved on last season's successful season? If so he will be as big as the likes of Tony(who amazingly clinched the WPC World Cup for LS) and Chris aswell as Aaron himself. Can Aaron handle the pressures of picking the right team at the right time to play. This will be a tight game but Freedom you know aslong as they get Kimbo back will have the edge. Without Kimbo I see LS edging it.

Score:

4-2 Freedom in the first shock of the season.

Match 3

Xtreme 8 Ball vs Straight Shots

Date and Time: Tuesday 8th September @ 7pm

Room: Alive

Ref: Drew
Admin To Watch Tapes: Bev

Probable Teams:

X8B: James, Ben, Eric, Adam, Conor and Sattyyy

SS: Nigel, Charlie, Chris, Laura, Liam and Jon

Key Men:

X8B: James

SS: Chris

The Script:

Well this is a unbeleivable match the Computer threw up! X8B and SS have been battling each other in the UIC Swiss competition in which SS took all season and this is the first match of the new WPC season for both. Now SS have a new Captain in Shelle and co Capt in Nish so will be looking for a good start in this all cam season of WPC. X8B will be quietly confident like Ben said in the interview, he wants a performance straight away. If things go the way it should the script will see that shelle will need Chris and Charlie to show up as in WPC they will be her most important players this season. Jon is good on cam also and dont count out Nigel playing a big part now he can relax and just play. X8B will look to James, Stephen and Conor to produce the goods this season. If they play well X8B will play well.

Score:

4-2 X8B with the big three performing.

Match 4

Cue Masters vs Money In The Bank

Date and Time: Wednesday 9th September @ 6pm

Room: Cushion

Ref: Rick/Bev

Probable Teams:

CM: Luke, Craig, Chele, ll_plan_ll, Fr0sty and John

MIB: Rich, Scoobz, Mick, Wolf, Candy and James

Key Men:

CM: Craig

MIB: Rich

The Script:

Two brand new teams to WPC for season 5 although CM have been here before and will stay a lot longer this time around. CM are the stronger of these two as MIB only have 6 signed up so I should getthe Probable Team right for that one! MIB have a tough task here because Craig as Captain and Chele as Co captain have been around the block and will take all the beating on the pool table. Throw in John and Frosty with Luke and you actually have a team that should be right up witht he playoff hunt this season. CM come into WPC as one of the favourites to win it along with the likes of LS, LPL and XP. MIB will be looking to finish top 10 I would think and they will need a few more players to achieve this.

Score:

CM will easily take it without breaking sweat 5-1 CM

Match 5

Pool Outlaws vs Latino Pool Legends

Date and Time: Wednesday 9th September @ 7pm

Room: Bohemian Rhapsody

Ref: Ogges

Probable Teams:

PO: Drew, Bluntsmoker, Crozzzy, Maxbite,

LPL: Ant, Tino, Mile, Korb3n, O1d_school and Truuma

Key Men:

PO: Drew

LPL: Ant

The Script:

This is a great match even though PO only have 4 registered players, that will definately have to change! LPL however last seasons revelation in the Regular season look good for a big season again this season. They have Ant as Captain and Korben(ex Allstar) back in there ranks now. Truuma and Tino will also be hungry to win again this season as LPL want the Title back! PO will do a lot this season if they can get 6 to the table every week. For that only time will tell. LPL they should make the playoffs and really need to win big this week.

Score:

5-1 LPL

Match 6

8 Ball Crushers vs Ultimate Outlaws

Date and Time: Wednesday 9th September @ 7pm

Room: Hang Out

Ref: Bryan

Probable Teams:

8BC: Trey, Bev, Piper, David, Mike and Corona

UO: Reb, Rebs.angel, Prince, Evil_drunkness, Justin and B_ama

Key Men:

8BC: Bev

UO: Rebs.angel

The Script:

Well, Well, Well UO play 8BC in WPC and it is just after the whole Bev and UO affair where she was told she couldn't talk to sertain people apparently. UO kicked Bev out and now they find themselves squaring off against each other. UO had a amazing season last season and will look to try and win there first playoff place this season. If Prince can perform and the rest of his team join in then we will have a shock this season for sure. Bev and Trey will really have to work hard for there team and getting players eligable. This match will be close but UO have the better players for me.

Score:

4-2 UO

Match 7

Sexy Poolerz vs Simply Pool Souls

Date and Time: Thursday 10th September @ 7pm

Room: Bicycle Race

Ref: Shelle

Probable Teams:

SP: Snooky, Ketan, Pete, Aabeel, Pascal and Ste

SPS: Monte, Kat, Twisted_insane, missfitz, Daquiet and mrsdequiet

Key Men/Woman:

SP: Snooky

SPS: Kat

The Script:

Well welcome to WPC SPS and this week you have a half shot at a upset! SP are not very strong starters in Interleagues so this season they have to come out of the blocks with all guns blazing or Monte and Crew will gun you down. Kat and Monte have had Cammed IL experience in PLC with PFN under none other than Cubby. Monte is a good alround player but Kat is better. This week will tell us how SPS will be able to hold there own against one of the more established IL teams. If they do that then SPS can beat SP but SP are very impressive at home and will take some beating so this is my shock of the week.

Score:

3-3 Drew Kat saves SPS!

There is the first blog of the WPC season with the interview enjoy all and PLEASE leave comments ont he comment page thanks. GL all and EXPO next week is in Bohemian Rhapsody at 6pm Take it easy WPC!!!

Season 4 Finale and A look into WPC season 5

Hello and welcome to WPC Sports Scene as a new season dawns
upon us, Season 4 has only just finished. It was a great battle in the finals
between season 3 finalists LS and PFN. In season 3 PFN won in 2 matches and
season 4 was suppose to go like that too. Lucky Shots had not read the script
though as they beat PFN 4-3 in the first match (after being 3-0 up, it needed
Jordy to clinch in the Tie-Breaker. But in match 2 LS romped to a 4-1 victory,
hence taking the World Cup 2-0 in the bo3 match.

As normal I will go through the players who made it happen and
what they bought to the team. I will start with me as I was the capt for the
majority of the season but end with chris who was the captain to bring it home.

Jason: Well what can I say about
myself? Every time I have got to the finals of a interleague it has always been
down to having a very good co-captain. I mean it is good having the vast amount
of talent I have here too. For me the success wasn't down to me it was down
to Chris(tonz). As for my record this season it was pretty good but I wont be
playing next season as i work nights now.

Jordy: Well everyone knows Jordy!
He shoots pool very well, he had just been on a break but came back strong and
will now captain Xtreme Poolerz in season 5(more on them later). He was especially
important for chris in the first playoff match vs PFN as chris the usual 7th
man in a tie break lost so up stepped jordy and only ran jamie of jamies break!
He was close to getting Playoff MVP but instead it went to someone I will talk
about later, but Jordy had a great playoff finals.

Simon: Well Simon had a indifferent
season as working hours made him miss some matches but he was there when LS
needed him most and that was all that counted. He pulled off a few big wins
for LS and for his captains Jason and Chris. He will no doubt be vital to Aarons
LS team in season 5.

Tony: Well, Well, Well he stayed
awake long enough and often enough to get eligable I think it was because he
like dme and chris and wasn't keen on Bev when she was in LS :P. This guy this
season has really upped his game. He had a good 6v6 season and was eligable
by quite a bit but the playoff final match 2 for Tony was something a little
bit special. He Broke run Andy(pool_warrior) with a run that really shouldn't
have been there and finished it with a dodgy black into the bottom left. Lucky
Shots HA won the WPC World Cup for his League and that run got 10/10 from me.

Jeremy: Jeremy got LS's Allstar
place dispite falling behind Chris in the race for Allstar. But he had a very
good 2 thirds of the season then it all fell away from him a bit but he will
be back with vengance for LS next season. Overall a solid if unspectacular season
but deserves all the credit for what he does for LS.

Aaron: The Captain in waiting has
a tough act to follow! But in Aaron I have no doubt he will bring some of his
own players in but I expect him to stick mainly witht he guys and girls who
played for LS last season. It will be tough in season 5 to win it again but
everyone had written LS chances off before that final so it will be interesting
how well he will do in season 5. Season 4 he was again like Jeremy solid and
dependable. Can he handle the captaincy and the pressures that go with it. We
will see.

JD: The new guy on the team who
is not anywhere as near bad as he thinks he is. He was bought in by me and Chris
and took part in the playoffs, he is getting better and better all the time,
and only sometimes loses because he thinks easy shots through too much but hey
we have all been there i see it a very important season for JD in season 5 and
lets see if he can convert good starts into solid results.

Chris: To end with Chris the Captain
throughout the most important part of the season. This man worked his socks
off and got LS out of some pickles this past season including in both the playoff
rounds defeating LPL and Tc almost single handedly with only 5 men. He was also
the MVP for the playoffs and deserves that award just ahead of the equally impressive
finals player Jordy. A great season overall for Chris and he deserves this more
than anyone.

Overall it was a very successful season for LPL, LS, BNR and
PFN. All for different reasons. BNR took the Championship Title, LPL the Premiership
title, PFN finished there last interleague in style unfortunatly just missing
out on becoming the first team to defend there title but also getting to the
finals in all 4 WPC seasons, and finally Lucky Shots took the WPC World cup
title and they really deserved it and thats now 2 times out of 4 LS has beent
o the finals. So LS and PFN have 3/4 of the finals spots over 4 season this
has got to change and next season there are some strong teams coming in.

WPC Season 5

So with Season 4 literally just out the
way heres a look into season 5! There has been quite a few changes for season
5. New Admins coming in to make it a more broad and fairer competition and give
more leagues in WPC power of Voice. There will also be a Captains meeting every
month to discuss how WPC is going for them and if anything needs changing. There
will be no 2v2 or 3v3 tournaments, all the EXPO tournies will not require cam
but if you do cam and win and send it to the Addy on the Welcome page then you
will score your team one extra point. The demise of the 2v2 and the 3v3 is being
compensated for by a Cup tournament in which every team in WPC must join and
will take place on a sunday at 5pm cases time. This will be a 3v3 carry cup
straight knockout tournament which will have one round a week and will commence
about half way through the 13 week season, there will be more information up
about that in the near future. The Cam rules are simple and will just require
the Timestamp not to be covering your taskbar(that means it must be in the top
of the screen if your taskbar is ont he bottom and vice versa).

So Lets meet the Teams. I will give the
Name of the team, who there Captain is and the Co-Captain is and then what to
watch for with the prediction of 1st - 14th at the end it is a 13 week season
and all one division with top 6 going to the playoffs at the end of the seasona
nd I can see some big teams missing out and watch for one or two Shock Positions.

8 Ball Crushers

Captain: Tray

Co-Captain: Bev

Last Season: 5th in Regular Season

Key Men: ll_plan_ll and classy_bitch_with_attitude

Last season saw 8BC start brilliantly
but then fade because of inactivity but there back and with vengence as Bev
and Treys league ICA merged with 8BC and now they have a active league once
again. I think they will have a good season as Bev seems to always have good
seasons with what ever team she is with usually does well. Look at ultimate
Outlaws last season she was with them for the first part and they were flying.
I don't Expect them to get in the playoffs but they wont be in the bottom 4
either.

Prediction:

8th

Freedom

Captain: Ashley

Co-Captain: Petey

Last Season: N/A

Key Men: Chris(xchrisx) and ll_eskimo_ownage_ll

Well FR technically have one player signed
up in Chris but they have players like Ash and Petey to come along with natural
Legacy and most probably Kimbo and Sukioo coming back or so I have heard. This
means that FR could be the shock to gatecrash the top 6 but the question is
can they get enough depth to sustain sucha challenge if they get it. Lets see
after the first half of the season. Knowing Petey and Ash like I do I fully
expect more names to sign for them.

Position:

9th

Latino Pool Legends

Captain: Tino

Co-Captain: Ant

Last season: Beaten Conference Finalists

Key Men: Ant and Truuma

Latino Pool Legends romped to the Regular
season title lasts eason but faultered against a 5 man Lucky Shots team in the
Conference finals. In Ant and Truuma they have two very strong players and the
rest of the team seem to back them up well with there Captain Tino being LPL
through and through. The question has to be asked though can they make another
push for it and the fact it is on cam I can see these coming very close to the
title. If Ant can perform like he did in season 4 then it will definately be
a playoff birth. Anything less will be seen as a disaster.

Prediction:

3rd

Lucky Shots

Captain: Aaron

Co-Captain: Chris

Last Season: Champions

Key Men: Tonzmaniac and Jeremy

So the team that has become the 4th team
to have a go at defending there title. They have lost Jordy for a start and
will struggle next season I think but can easily make the playoffs. if the right
team is picked by the new captain Aaron and they show and play like they did
all season 4 then LS have a interesting season ahead. It will all depend on
weather fringe players like JD and Tony can have as good of seasons as they
had in season 4 and it all depends on who Aaron or Chris or myself can bring
into LS for the season 5. The season looks good for LS.

Prediction:

6th

Money In The Bank

Captain: Rich

Co-Captain: Scoobz

Last Season: N/A

Key Men: Scoobz and Rich

I don't know much about this league so
this will be kept short and sweet. They seem to be player who didnt like there
old leagues joining together and having a shot at the big time. Will they last?
Its a gamble WPC have taken with this league, I happent ot hink they will but
they will just be learning, expect them to give a good account of themselves
in some matches.

Prediction:

14th

Pool Outlaws

Captain: Ben

Co-Captain: Shane

Last Season: N/A

Key Players: Drew(gpk) and Bluntsmoker

Again another team that just has 3 signed
up but this league is going places as it is one of cases most active leagues
at the moment. They have players however that will have to work out how to keep
it shut at the table and if Drew can avoid getting boxed he will be very big
for PO. If he loses however and doesnt report he will be boxed straight away.
If PO behave and show withthere 'A' game every week then they will have a very
big chance. Can they bring strong players all season? Lets wait and see but
a playoff place is likely.

Postition:

5th

Regul8ors

Captain: Tahir

Co-Captain: Gia

Last Season: N/A

Key Men: windows_creations and Jazzie_for_u

This is a big season for Regul8ors as
they come back from the Interleague wilderness when they used to dominate the
IL's in the time of Pita and Co. They will not have the best season this season
but in windows_cleaning(jason) they have a great player, who on his game can
mix it witht he best of them. They unlike PO and MIB and SPS have a few players
signed up and will no doubt get more. This could be a ok season for Regul8ors,
I expect them to have a good cup run later in the season.

Prediction:

12th

Sexy Poolerz

Captain: Pete

Co-Captain: Ketan

Last Season: Beaten Semi-Fianlists

Key Men: Snooky and Ste

This could be Sexy Poolerz season. It
is All Cam and SP love camtasia, just look at what they did in PLC as SP or
UP. Sexy Poolerz are going to contest with every team and I think will be one
of the top 2 seeds in WPC come playoff time. Players like Ste, Snooky and Pete
will be important for SP. I think it wil be important that Conners and Pascal
play for SP this season too. This team will go places this season.

Prediction:

2nd

Simply Pool Souls

Captain: Monte

Co-Captain: Kat

Last Season: N/A

Key Players: Monte and Kat

Simply Pool Souls are again new to the
interleague scene but there captain and co-captain have played in PLC and WPC
before. SPS are going to cause a few shocks this eason and I expect Kat and
Monte to show there class and get SPS mid table if they have a godo team it
is all about the Capt and Co capt to me though. If they show every week they
will surprise everyone.

Prediction:

13th

Straight Shots

Captain: Shelle

Co-Capt: Nish

Last Season: Beaten Semi Finalists

Key Men: Nigel and Chris

SS will be under new management this season.
Shelle (last season's co-captain) has now been appointed as captain, replacing
SS's successful inters captain Nigel. Nish is helping as her new co-captain.
Although SS came so close to success last season, its anyone's guess as to how
strong they will be in season 5. Theyve got many good players there, yet reliability
was an issue in season 4. But write SS off at your peril. They have players
like Alex and JC returning to replac ethe void Corey and Sagar left so SS are
looking good for atleast another shot at the playoffs but Chris must again be
on form and watch for Nigel to play his part.

Prediction:

4th

True Champs

Captain: Dawn

Co-Captain: Ally

Last Season: Beaten Semi-Finalists

Key Players: Dawn and Pommy

So this I think will be the season of
underachievement for True Champs. Pommy has Hockey starting back up and there
are a lot of strong teams in this season which will make it that little bit
harder for True Champs. Sure if they have a sort of season like last season
then they will be right there but in my opinion there are just too many teams
a bit bettter than them but hey! i expect to be proved wrong. It will all depend
on if Pommy, Trav and Dawn can perform like normal.

Prediction:

10th

Ultimate Outlaws

Captain: Reb

Co-Captain: Ms.Reb

Last Season: 5th In the Regular season

Key Men: Prince and Reb

This will be a interesting season for
the team that very nearly defeated X8B and got the last playoff place in Season
4. This season how ever it will be a little bit different as there are alot
more strong teams in and I see UO struggling but still picking wins and mixed
the top 8 who are close together up. Prince is a big player for UO and will
need some help as UO go for broke in WPC season 5.

Prediction:

11th

Xtreme 8 Ball

Captain: Ben

Co-Captain: James

Last Season: Defeated Semi-Finalists

Key Men: Corey and Ben

This season will be a pivitol season for
the X8B crew as they have picked up a couple of real players and have a couple
of regulars coming to form. Corey from SS is there bigest signing and will add
that bit of consistancy into it. Adam will need to be behaved ths season but
he will have a big season as well as my buddy Ben who will lead from the front
with Cheeky James as his side kick and this will be the season that X8B make
the playoffs easily and they have a outside chance at winning the lot aslong
a sthe show with the usual decent players. I see them finishing comfortably
inside the playoff spots.

Prediction:

5th

Xtreme Poolerz

Captain: Jordy

Co-Captain: Nick

Last Season: N/A

Key Players: Jamie and Andy

Well this is where the Pool fictioners
have gone to still be together and you add them to already a strong XP squad
and you wont be surprised that i say the rest has it all to do. Kerry has moved
and I expect Ogges, Lewis and Cubby along witht he rest that are staying in
pool to do the same as what PFN did so that will be atleast get to the finals
of WPC season 5. If Jordy uses Indy and Nick along with Kerry, Ogges, Cubby
an dJamie and Andy then this will be a big ass first seasonf or XP. I expect
them to challenge SS in the EXPO race too.

Position 1st

To sum up this is the table as i see it at the end of the season

1st: XP

2nd: SP

3rd: LPL

4th: SS

5th: X8B

6th: LS

-------------------------

7th: PO

8th: 8BC

9th: FR

10th:TC

11th:UO

12th:REGS

13th:SPS
