No ID No Idea Walks Runs Through the Dirty Burg

Looked up dump in the dictionary. Said "See Fitchburg"
Usually used as a sideline cheerleader, Keegan Schleicher had himself a day.He led the game with 13 points with Joey Wilkes and Eddie Hannon followed up with about 8 a piece. Phil Rizzo kept the sold out crowd entertained with a dunk, and the absence of Pat Hannon didn't matter as No ID No Idea beat the Dirty Burg 40-19. The Dirty Burg was carried by the typical few. Chris Books carried the offense with Travis Jolly and Jeff Hupe helping out. The win for No ID No Idea will keep them atop the Power Rankings.

UPDATE: Ed Hannon had at least 5 threes

Thumbs Up Gives Thumbs Down Performance, Super Villain Squad Prevails

The Super Villain Squad outplayed Thumbs Up by far in their 40-34 victory. Bret AKA Lex Luthor played a phenomenal game in the paint and crushed the boards. Deathstroke hit a few 3's and had a couple nice drives, while Chad Earls did his usual of a solid 7 points and redirecting everything on defense. Tim Laconte out hustled everyone on the court leading to steals and fast breaks. Kurt O'Sullivan worked his inside out game, while his partner in crime Mr. Freeze drained some 3's. The only bright spot for Thumbs Up was sharp shooter Steve Burril. The rest of team did not play their usual game with Dan Nagle and Doug Schlehuber showing glimpses of great plays but nothing compared to Game 1. The Commish rocked out a double double with 15 boards and 15 turnovers absolutely destroying fast breaks. Matt and Mike Donovan hit some key shots, but were not there usual selves. This will shake up the Power Rankings that will be posted later tonight.

How the Mighty Have Fallen: No ID No Idea Upsets the Super Villain Squad

As the sun was fading, the darkness was setting in. This would seem to be the perfect weather for someone called the Super Villain Squad, but with a 40-38 loss,  it was the complete opposite. Riding on the back of Malik Little's three point barrage and game clinching fade-away along, Joey Wilkes' push to the transition game, and with Pat Hannon being a force in the interior, No ID No Idea went from sure fire playoff team to surefire championship contender. The Super Villain squad was up by one at half, but refused to leave their zone defense and paid the price for it. The had great contributions from Jared Lang offensively,  defensively Chad Earls was equalizing No ID No Idea as much as possible, and had their own sniper in Death Stroke.

The game was a back and forth battle with some verbal taunts back and forth, but it was a beautiful game for opening day. The once thought league favorites have gone down in week one, but they'll have plenty of time and chances to contend for the ship. On the other hand, the young guns from No ID No Idea are in for another battle next week against the other winner Thumbs Up. Year two of the NSHL is on to a hot start.
