Playoff Time!

March Madness has come early this year.

The Sportsmen strategically secured the bottom seed in this year's Minneapolis D-League Playoffs. We saw the bottom seed as the most dramatic way to rise to be champions of the league, so we nailed that goal to say the least.

If you want your mind to be blown, come check out our first playoff game this Sunday, the 15th at 4:50pm at the Creekview Gym in North Mpls.

We Suck

We got destroyed last week (our team wasn't exactly in top condition come game time), but damn we look good in those custom jerseys!

Tractor Traylor Comes Up Big

On a night when only the 6 best looking members of The Sportsmen showed up to play, Tractor "J$" Traylor proved he deserved that big signing bonus. After Brendan's hip was crushed by a fat ass from the other team and we were down to only 5 players for the 2nd half, Tractor (our best conditioned athlete) picked up the slack and dominated both ends of the floor. His never-tired hustle paid off as the Sportsmen defeated Cheap Shots 41-36. We are now 2-1 and tied for 2nd place.

Next week (January 11th) come check us out- we play at 4:00pm at the Creekview gym, 5001 Humboldt Ave N. Afterwards we'll celebrate our victory at our practice facilities- Sporties- with cheap pitchers 'o beer.

Team Logo

The infamous Natalie Schaefer designed the team logo this year. Even if we don't win a single game, we will definately be the best looking team out there. Thanks Nat!
