Magic Pool Vs Brit Pool
Magic Pool leads the way this week in this match up and should rack up another win, as for BP they lose this week to go back to 3-3 and even things up.
3-2(MP)
Sexy Poolerz Vs Money In The Bank
SP is showing well thus early in the season and find themselves flying high, while MIB are dropping like flies. SP takes this one easy.
3-2(SP)
Extreme Pool Competitors Vs Straight Shots
Epc isnt living up to their name at all, maybe jack should change the name,idk, but it's not looking good. If they show, they could take this 3-2, but l see them losing as they dont have the players.
3-2(SS)
International Cue Addiction Vs Ultimate Outlaws
An easier week for ICA, they should pick up the free win this week...lets hope so anywayz.
3-2(ICA)
Freedom Vs Pool Fiction
This is the best matchup this week, should deffinately be a fun one to watch and mostly likely a close match throughout. I think Pool Fiction is the stronger team and take it in the end.
3-2(PFN)

Week 5
Freedom vs Magic Pool
Freedom is a good squad, worthy of pulling out wins against any team in GIT and prove so every week with wins or close losses. Magic Pool is another strong squad, who has thier ups and downs but seems to compete well each week and with that being said, this should be a close match this week.
4-1(Mp)
Pool Fiction vs International Cue Addiction
ICA is last seasons Brit Pool and they need to start living up to thier hype now, before it's too late. Both sides have some good players, but PFN isn't as strong. This could be a close match, but I'm feeling a whipping coming by way of a 4-1 or 5-0 score.
4-1(ICA)
Ultimate Outlaws vs Extreme Pool Competitors
Again this season for Epc its more a battle of getting players to show up on time or at all, than a battle with the other team. In every loss this season, there has been some situation causing them to lose that final 3rd game, and normally not one of thier players on the table. UO comes in as a bottom feeder and so they shall stay that way this week..if Epc brings 3..then 3-2 it will be.
3-2(Epc)
Straight Shots vs Sexy Poolerz
SS see themselves atop the standings and for good reason, as it seems the real beneficieries of SS losing players is SS. The Ex-ss players are sucking it up in GIT thus far, while the new ones are raping.
3-2(Bp)
Money In The Bank vs Brit Pool
MIB is a good squad, about as truthfully good as BP is, so this should be a close match.

Week 4
Magic Pool Vs Money In The Bank
Should be an easier match for MP, but MIB isnt as weak as before.
3-2(MP)
Brit Pool Vs Straight Shots
SS has been hot lately and for good reason, while BP continues to be BP..SS takes this on easy.
3-2(SS)
Sexy Poolerz Vs Ultimate Outlaws
SP have better talent,but will they all show?If they do they win against a weaker UO team, but lets see how it plays out..
3-2(SP)
Extreme Pool Competitors Vs Pool Fiction
Epc if they show are better, but showing after two weeks isnt easy for them lolz PFN isnt a terrible team, but deffinately not the best.
3-2(Pfn)
International cue Addiction Vs Freedom
ICA has been under-performing and that won't do against a pretty good Freedom side. Both have players worth mentioning and should be close games win or lose.
3-2(FR)

Week 3
International Cue Addiction Vs Magic Pool
This should be a close match, as it could go either way. Both sides have simlilarly good players and depending on how they match up will prove the outcome in my opinion. ICA has the home advantage, but we all know that croz will go first, so maybe Chris can use that to a little advantage and match accordingly. In my opinion the match either starts out 1-1(craig & jordy normally auto wins) or they play each other and decide the fate of the match itself.
3-2( ICA)
Freedom Vs Extreme Pool Competitors
This should be an easy going match, no doubt the only time Epc ever has a drama free match b/c both sides have so much homo love for each other. Both sides have good players, damn near even honestly so it should be a close match. They each come in as 1-1, but afterwards..someone will be under .500 , who will it be?
3-2(Epc)
Pool Fiction Vs Sexy Poolers
Relatively easy match to predict in my opinion, but who cares lets write some on it anyways. They have some history, mostly PFN beating them and shaming them right out of Wpc last season. Will SP have enough to get revenge or will PFN keep it's older brother strangle hold on them?
4-1(Pfn)
Ultimate Outlaws Vs Brit Pool
This should be a close match pairing two lesser teams in GIT, and it could even be drama filled..just depends on how everyone is feeling tomorrow. As far as skilled players, they both have 1 l think, maybe 2..I'm not really certain.
3-2( Uo)
Straight Shots Vs Money In The Bank
This pairs the two top teams, for now, in GIT together and the winner will hold the top spot alone afterwards. SS is the stronger team if you go by known player, but MIB has been shocking us all so another win this week isnt out of the question although l do think it is a long shot by any means.

Week 2
Magic Pool Vs Straight Shots
In a match-up of last seasons Championship Finals, this could be another close one. SS comes into the match as a bit of a suprise, as they won last week and make it seem as they will be able to challenge for the top spot again this season with the likes of thier newcomers. They beat UO 4-1 last week, with only thier new captain Kazi losing, leaving Mike,Jamie, & Pita to pick up the needed wins against a less than good UO squad. Magic Pool comes into the match wanting to win, needing to win and they could do so. After losing to Epc in an "upset" last week, they should try thier best this week to get the win. Same match-up, same result?or can MP finally beat SS?
3-2(Mp)
Money In The Bank Vs Ultimate Outlaws
This pits last seasons last place finisher against this seasons probable last place finisher. MIB comes in soaring, as they took out the mighty PFN last week for thier first win in GIT...Nicely done guys. Ultimate Outlaws lost last week to SS and should do the same this week, although l can see it being a much closer match.
3-2(MIB)
Brit Pool Vs Pool Fiction
Brit Pool is wanting to prove early and often that they do belong with the Top Teams in GIT, and they helped thier case last week by beating Freedom. They have some pretty good talent on thier side, but can they perform well each week?Well, they are going to have to give thier best again this week to get another win. PFN lost last week to MIB, something not many people could have saw coming, especially with all the "stars" leaving MIB as of late, again..way to go guys. They will want to prove thier worth this week and l think they can, but l wont be suprised for two losses in a row either.
3-2(PFN)
Sexy Poolerz Vs Freedom
Sexy Poolerz beat the most glorified team ever last week and pretty much knocked out all the talk and hype when it happened. Freedom comes in on a somewhat upset, and look to get back on track this week. Both sides have good players, just depends on how they will perform this week and l see Freedom getting back on track and taking out a good SP side, in a very close match.
3-2(FR)
Extreme Pool Competitors Vs International Cue Addicton
ICA lost last week after they came a little high, no doubt thier addiction led to some poor play and they were beaten rather decently. I'm sure they will come into the match this week wanting to win a little more and do that they very well could. Epc comes in on a high note after beating Magic Pool last week and sit atop the standings for now. They need to come correct this week and keep all the bullshit seperate(yeah right) if they want to win again this week. Should be a close one.
3-2(Ica)

Season 2 - Week 1
Extreme Pool Competitors Vs Magic Pool
Week 1 sets off a tough start for Epc, as they face what should be all of the top teams first, then the cupcakes later. Coming into the season they lose some key players, but add others into the roster to help make up the difference. With players like Stephen, Cam, Timm & Mikey returning, Add in Daru, Gus, and Jason they should be just as dangerous this season, As long as they show up each week. Magic Pool returns the Core of thier lineup, the one that lead them to the Playoffs and the Finals last season. This should be a close match, and I'm sure Chris will match his players with an expert eye as Magic Pool has Home Advantage. Could and Should go to the wire.
3-2 (Epc)
International Cue Addiction Vs Sexy Poolerz
Well, ICA is coming into interleague play with as much hype as any newly formed team ever, and look to show well against Sexy Poolerz. If they dont worry about thier reputation too much they should take this one with ease, although a little shit talking could get them off track and make it closer than wanted. Sexy Poolerz came in late last season and barely missed the playoffs, but a full season should see them do well, just not too well.
4-1 (Ica)
Freedom Vs Brit Pool
Freedom reloads with some nice female talent after not loosing too much in the offseason while Brit Pool re-enters as a wildcard. Highly over rated last season, they look to perform better this season and do that they jjust might. Pulling off a win against last seasons regular season champs would be big here and if they play well they just might do that.
3-2(Fr)
Pool Fiction Vs Money In The Bank
Pfn comes into GIT with a strong lineup and want to do well in thier first season, while MIB wants to do any better than last season by getting some wins. This shouldnt be a close match, yet will be the most civilized of them all today.
4-1(Pfn)
Ultimate Outlaws Vs Straight Shots
UO is back for season two, and look to build upon what they did last season while Straight Shots are under new management, both Captain and player-wise. IF SS shows with the people they can, this could get ugly, but as it took them a few weeks last season, l see it being the same this season.

Season 2 Preview
Welcome to Season Two of Global InterLeague Trophy!!!
Season One went down without any major disfunctions and ran very smoothly considering it being it's first season and the different gamestyles that could be used. I applaud the Admins on thier Cam Rules, anything short of obvious cheating on cam is pretty much cool as long as you cam your game. No cheap wins for misplaced timestamps, or hidden icons(Both oddly kept by other interlgs), fore it is to dispell cheating/aiming that we use cam isnt it?Exactly.
There are some changes this season, Most notably the Reporting Violations will be enforced this season. Last season you could get away with passing the deadline and getting your report in late, this season you have 48 hours to report and only One Warning, after that it will be a week in the box. It's not hard to report, and 48 hours gives you plenty of time to get it in or notify an admin if you can't report..so don't get pissy if you fail to report within the large timeframe.
There have been updates to the "Wild cards" for this season, something the admins seem to want to do every season, which is pretty cool. This season the "Last Pocket" wildcard is out and in comes the "Pyschic 8" Wildcard. At the beggining of the game, you get to choose your opponets 8ball pocket, home team choosing first and they cannot be the same. A scenario that I'm sure will come up has been addressed already, if the 8ball becomes stuck in your opponets pocket leaving you no shot, its to be played on..it can only be a re-rack if your opponet so chooses to allow it, not manditory.
Other New Additions include a Weekly Guest Predictor and the Welcoming of Rich as admin.
If you are interested in becoming a "guest predictor" for a week, then contact Chris or Joe via YIM and set it up with them.
Now for the PreSeason Rankings :)
#1 - International Cue Addiction
A new league to GIT, with some old familiar faces. Trey leads his group of followers onto the table with his head held high, as he has some real talent behind him. Joining him for this season are a few MVP candidates from last season(Nick & Craig), as well as consistent winners such as Shan,Croz, and Nish. With a full lineup each week of high caliber players it should prove to be a good season for them and they should wrap up a playoff spot earlier than most.
#2 - Pool Fiction
Another new league to GIT that should do very well is Pool Fiction. Lead by the incrediable sexy Kerry :), this team includes weekly winners like Miz, Lewis,Brent and Andy. Showing with a full team will not be a problem for Kerry, and they should do well matching up with the other leagues week in and week out.
#3 - Freedom
Last years Regular Season Champs will look slightly different this season, but should still perform rather well. As Petey loses craig, he gains Hope..though not normally a good switch, Hope has been playing pretty lights out of late, taking it to the guys daily and winning. If he keeps players in Corey and Adam they should stay near the top, though I'm not certain what his lineup looks like for GIT, so they could finish abit lower than 3rd overall.
#4 - Magic Pool
Last Seasons runner-up to SS looks to have another good season and them doing well is highly likely. The feature players like Jordy and Chris, who will both compete for MVP again this season, along with players like Anil, they can beat up on the weaker teams and compete with the top teams. Consistency all season will be thier key, as they look to finish strong and make another good run in the playoffs.
#5 - Extreme Pool Competitors
Epc lost some key players, but adds a few new faces to keep competing. I'm not sure how Jack does it, but he always seems to be able to reload after each season with decent talent and compete. With the likes of Daru and Gus, along with Killah Jason,Stephen and Timm, they could and should compete with the top leagues all season long..Consistency will be key as it always is with jacks squads.
#6 - Straight Shots
Last seasons eventual champions will look to compete again this season, but with some different talent. As they lose players like Nick and Shan, they gain Mike and Matt, who can both win some games for Nigel each week. I don't see them performing well enough for a top spot, but should make the playoffs and could suprise us again this season..who knows.
#7 - Brit Pool
Brit Pool has a new captain in pommy, who left mib just as we were getting used to the idea of mib finally competing. They might bring a good lineup each week, I'm not certain though if they do they will compete well against the top teams. Having a full team each week will be key, as l see them having trouble over an 18 week season. Prove me wrong.
#8 - Sexy Poolerz
This league had issues bringing all of thier quality players to the table each week, as we saw Pete jump out to a 6-0 start, then go idle for 3 weeks..it's all about how they will show each week that determines where they will finish. They could be a decent league each week or they could not, only time will tell.
#9 - Money In the Bank
Last seasons last place finisher had enough tough luck to last us all a lifetime. By far more 2-3 losses than anyone else, things could have looked alot different in the standings via a single win/lose for this league. Showing with a full team each week is never an issue, nor is having a respectful group of players but that doesnt get you everywhere and I see them finishing near the bottom again. Goodluck :)
#10 - Ultimate Outlaws
Everyones favorite team to hate on looks to compete again this seaons, although it seems they are slowly losing all the skilled players they have to other teams slowly. They can pull off a few upsets but also lose to the worst of teams so who knows honestly. Over 18 weeks anything can happen and I'm sure it will..so goodluck and have fun :)

GIT Playoffs - Round 1
It's Playoff Time!
While not as exciting as the current NFL playoffs, I'm sure the players and fans alike will see some games worth watching, some upsets possible, and ultimately a showdown of two good teams, going head to head.
#1 Freedom vs #4 Magic Pool
Both come into the playoffs, less than hot, but look to play well and make it into the finals. Freedom was able to win last week, and hold up for that #1 spot, which gives them homefield advantage and allows their Captain(Not sure who that is, as they still dont have one listed) to make the match-ups in thier favor, which hurts MP more than anyone in this game. Freedom has the better lineup, and with the ability to play players like Corey,Petey and Ash twice, they could be up in a hurry, with Magic Pool seeing their playoff season end fast. As long as the core of Freedom shows up, this one will be easy, but if not then they could be ripe for an upset.
5-2 Freedom
#2 Straight Shots Vs #3 Extreme Pool Competitors
These two teams come into the playoffs with relative good streaks, and good performances. StraightShots is +2, coming off wins against Freedom and Ultimate Outlaws, while Extreme Pool Competitors is coming in with a +3 against Straight Shots,Money In The Bank, and Brit Pool. StraightShots will want to look to the future and not the past, with the only two meetings between these two both going to Epc. After a 5-0 spanking in the first half, they were able to bring it closer with a 3-2 loss just weeks ago. SS has a considerable deeper team, but what Epc lacks in numbers they make up for in ability. This could be a close match, depends on the matchups Nigel plays. Does he choose to use players like Nick against the weaker members of Epc, or does he play him head to head against the better players and hope that he prevails. Either way, this will be the match to watch and these two teams shouldnt disappoint.
5-4 Extreme Pool Competitors
While not as exciting as the current NFL playoffs, I'm sure the players and fans alike will see some games worth watching, some upsets possible, and ultimately a showdown of two good teams, going head to head.
#1 Freedom vs #4 Magic Pool
Both come into the playoffs, less than hot, but look to play well and make it into the finals. Freedom was able to win last week, and hold up for that #1 spot, which gives them homefield advantage and allows their Captain(Not sure who that is, as they still dont have one listed) to make the match-ups in thier favor, which hurts MP more than anyone in this game. Freedom has the better lineup, and with the ability to play players like Corey,Petey and Ash twice, they could be up in a hurry, with Magic Pool seeing their playoff season end fast. As long as the core of Freedom shows up, this one will be easy, but if not then they could be ripe for an upset.
5-2 Freedom
#2 Straight Shots Vs #3 Extreme Pool Competitors
These two teams come into the playoffs with relative good streaks, and good performances. StraightShots is +2, coming off wins against Freedom and Ultimate Outlaws, while Extreme Pool Competitors is coming in with a +3 against Straight Shots,Money In The Bank, and Brit Pool. StraightShots will want to look to the future and not the past, with the only two meetings between these two both going to Epc. After a 5-0 spanking in the first half, they were able to bring it closer with a 3-2 loss just weeks ago. SS has a considerable deeper team, but what Epc lacks in numbers they make up for in ability. This could be a close match, depends on the matchups Nigel plays. Does he choose to use players like Nick against the weaker members of Epc, or does he play him head to head against the better players and hope that he prevails. Either way, this will be the match to watch and these two teams shouldnt disappoint.
5-4 Extreme Pool Competitors

Week 14
As the close of the Regular Season of GIT comes about, it's time to reflect on the past 13 weeks.
As a whole it has been a very good first season, coming without much conflict and swift action when something has arisen(Nice Job Guys..really). We have saw some dominate performances on the tables every week, as well as some upsets and just when you think everything has settled some in the standings, it gets shaken up again. Up until late this season, Freedom has dominated everyone with their only losses coming by way of 3-2 Defeats to Extreme Pool Competitors. They have since lost 3 in a row and hope to right that ship going into the playoffs where their roster shortens, yet gets better. We have seen teams like Straight Shots, who limped into GIT the first few weeks then came on strong to pull out a tie for 1st, after much speculation that Nigel didn't take this Interleague serious he has proved everyone wrong. MIB has to be the Best last place team ever. They have been on the wrong side of so many close matches and never gave up hope, not to mention the most respectful squad all season long by far. Nicely done!
Now for the final weeks predictions!
Brit Pool Vs Extreme Pool Competitors
Jack & Company have managed a good team all season long, even with a few bumps along the way and a no show against UO, they currently sit in good position to make the playoffs and hope to do some damage with new players getting eligable this last week. Brit Pool has been quite the let down this season, with most of the predictors having them ranked #1 preseason, they havent lived up to the hype..it happens. A win here or there and they could have easily been in the playoff run, but they currently see themselves in 7th position. They could play spoiler here and try to keep jack and company from possibly making the playoffs, and keeping them from a higher final season rank. The first matchup between these two, BP won 5-0 and shocked the entire room as even Ant lost that match. This one should prove a little closer and I'm giving the nod to Epc, who look to go into the playoffs on a roll.
3-2(Epc)
Money In the Bank Vs Freedom
This is an important matchup for Freedom, as they have been on quite the skid and don't want to go into the playoffs with a -4 streak beside them. If they do, l don't think it will affect them much, but all the same they will try to close out on a positive note. MIB is the League of the Season IMO, with Rich & Company sitting in last, yet still a strong team. I have said a few times this season that they could be a very good squad and after a long season in GIT, where they were always respectful, always on time and always competing, They have been bitten by the Karma bug and look to destroy some people in PRO, with a new/old mix of players creating a very potent lineup. Watch out for them next season!
3-2(FR)
Straight Shots Vs Ultimate Outlaws
SS comes into this last week bidding for that #1 spot, and could very easily get it after what seemed to be a disappointing season for the early on. They have came back with a flair and look to finish strong and do some damage in the playoffs. As for UO, they have saw there share of drama this past season but seem to be on a positive level now, competing well the last few weeks and look to continue to do so this week and spoil SS's hopes of taking #1. Should be a good match, one deffinately worth watching but l think SS takes it and goes into the playoffs strong.
3-2(SS)
Magic Pool Vs Sexy Poolerz
Magic Pool came into GIT wanting to make a stand and that they have done, showing the old squad can still compete and compete well. They currently sit 2nd in the standings and have a shot at taking #1 with Freedoms nose dive the last few weeks. Sexy Poolerz came into GIT a little late, but looked to compete early on and are suprisingly out of playoff contention currently, but could still make it with a strong win. This is a battle of who wants it more what more, Does Magic Poll want #1 or does SP want in the playoffs..lets watch and see :)
3-2(Mp)

Week 13
Sexy Poolerz Vs Brit Pool
Sp hasnt played like they want the playoffs, and BP would love to help knock them out with a somewhat upset win. Will Sexy Poolerz play there way into the playoffs, or out?We'll see, but I'm not certain.
3-2(Sp)
Ultimate Outlaws vs Magic Pool
MP has the chance to clinch a playoff berth this week with a win over UO, and that's not asking alot against this version of the UO squad, who has underperformed all season.
3-2(MP)
Freedom Vs Straight Shots
Coming off a tough loss to Epc, in which they won the remaininf two games to steal it away, SS will want to come in stroking it ;) and try to take out Frredom, who has already claimed a playoff spot and couldnt care less.
3-2(Fr)
Extreme Pool Competitors Vs Money In The Bank
Epc pulled out a great win last week and look to continue to stride into the playoffs on a winnning note against MIB. I think they will take care of business earlier and often and put this away fast.
4-1(Epc)

Week 12
Brit Pool vs Money in the Bank
These two teams sit in the cellar of the GIT Standings and on the BP side it has been quite the disappointment, while on the MIB side, just a case of not having that little something extra to push them over the top each week. This will be a close match, but l see MIB taking the final nod with some of thier new players delivering good games.
3-2(MIB)
Straight Shots vs Extreme Pool Competitors
SS is coming into this match on a hot streak, and would love to avenge the 5-0 spanking they got last time they faced off with Epc and could very well do so. Jack and Company have been good, have been bad, and just havent been there at all this season, but sit at 6-5, tied with Sexy Poolerz. They need a win this week in order to be a little more comfortable for playoffs, while a win for SS would have them sitting pretty. Should be a close one, but lm taking Epc.
3-2(Epc)
Magic Pool vs Freedom
Through 11 weeks of GIT, Freedom has found themselves with a comfortable lead in 1st place. Not bad for a team with no listed captains ehh? They are coming off a odd loss to SP last week, and will want to leave no doubt this week. MP is coming off a close win against Epc, in which it went down to the wire, with Chris coming out on top to take the 3-2 win. This could be a close match, it could be a beating like the first meeting, it depends on how much each side really wants it.
3-2(FR)
Sexy Poolerz vs Ultimate Outlaws
UO has been a disappointment in GIT, they usually compete well but just cant find the missing key to closing out matches and competing for a playoff spot with the others, as they have already been eliminated. Sexy poolerz can still make the playoffs, though they dont seem as strong to me as they were when we started out. Will UO upset them and throw them into a tight spot concerning playoffs, or will Sp take care of business and take out this underperforming UO squad?

Week 11
It's been quite a break for some players with the holiday layover in GIT, as well as UIC, so will everyone be able to shake the rust off quickly and be in top game form, or will we see some sloppy play and intresting matches because of such..Who knows, but it should be a good day being that we are playing once again.
Goodluck everyone and Have fun :)
