I think I'd be tempted to watch L&O instead of the "cup game of the century" too...

Also I would like to point out that our very own Coco and the Lake Merritt Arrows are not only in the Elite 8 of the Cup, but are in the Sweet 16 of the B3

Happy to report that Coco defeated #25 FC Tenakha (42308284) in the Sweet 16 of the B3! The Lake Merritt Arrows (23075) are the first American team to advance to the Elite 8 of the B3 since the King Drive Ballers in Season 13. Next up for Coco is RiP and the #1 B3 Ranked Philosopher Kings (24916) on the 18th at 7pm Eastern.

Congrats on getting there man. Great job. Looking forward to the next round. Represent! Great-siiidde!

Don't worry! You're just the man to sow some existential doubt in his mind, and when he can't convince himself of what his sense organs are reporting, he'll surely forfeit!

figured i had a chance but I did not expect to win, let alone by this margin.

Yea the margin was surprising, but I think you have the better team. Maybe need to rethink the idea of building an offense that relies solely on 2 players. My 20 RB guy only got 5 RBs in 30 mins and fouled out, that was rough. Good luck in the final four

i had been eyeing a big upgrade at SG, figured that was the only way id have a chance. didnt find the right player and was happy to take a shot, lose and then focus on the playoffs.

sure enough, my SG has a great game considering how overmatched he was salarywise and we pulled a big win.

#14 King Drive Ballers (II.4) vs #38 Imperial Phantoms (II.4)

One thing we know for sure, a Division II team will play in the USA Cup Championship game. The last time that happened was Season 13, when the Division II Grim Koalas made it all the way to the finals, before falling to...brian and the King Drive Ballers. Now brian is back in the Final Four for the first time since that championship. Starring future USA NT stars Laverne Goddard (16437910) and Nemesio Xermade (14597229), this version of KDB is poised to make a run at a record 7th USA Cup! To get here brian defeated the NBBA's AirBallers in the Elite 8 convincingly, 107-93 (42308553), but those guys suck.

Now he'll have to face a legitimate opponent in Azariah and the #38 Imperial Phantoms. To reach the Final Four Azariah had to sink Failboat and the Failboat in the Elite 8 (42308551). The Phantoms are led by USA U21 standout Charles Parsons (17741471), who also starts at Forward for the Houston Rockets (http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/boxscore;_ylt=Amxy.jwNnea08FC...).

II.4 bragging rights again on the line, 2 teams enter, one team moves on to the final! Will it be brian and the KDB (probably)? Or will it be Azariah and the Phantoms (I'm guessing no, sorry Az)? Find out Thursday, 8pm Eastern!!!

I like how Parsons decides to change race when he's playing for the rockets, haha.
