ohh...dang...Joy Division wasn't a bad team either. I liked them.

I guess NPPL will be missing out.

[geekwarrior]

good for them...they got the raw deal too many times from the nppl

[wimag]

that sucks. One of the more interesting teams that made the NPPL worthwhile to even pay attention to.

[mclaggan123]

they were one of two teams i followed and the other team left last year. now i have no reason to follow the nppl. after going to a few events last year and seeing the reffing i can see why they are leaving.

[Pzippy]

Good for them! Totally good decision for Joy, even if it hurts them now.

[fire1811]

cant blame them one bit

[Glickman]

what the refs did was wrong, and the whole respect for the league is forever tarnished.


next time dynasty is playing an important match, joy should run out on the field and tackle alex fraige and the refs...




with bats...

[onedude36]

^^lol that made me laugh

[B-Pow]

Man, I really liked joy they are one of the only teams that actually makes an attempt to act like good sports and not swear at the refs or bad mouth other players on whatever media they can get. Case in point the OC fallout from last year, go to the tapes on youtube, dynasty acted childish and rude during and after that fiasco, and Joy seemed polite and calm.

[Darktrooper5]

Those poor lads got the shaft way too many times.

[bryceeden]

No offence but Joy cheats way more than most teams(yes, I know all pro teams cheat but Joy cheats bad) so of coarse they get alot of penaltys. And they fight and argue with refs so much if I was the tourney producer guy I would have given them(and Dynasty) the boot along time ago.

"Event after event we have suffered horrendous, unjust calls against us with the last incident in KC where we were denied hang points because the flag wasn't in place (the judge's responsibility) was just the last straw."


They didnt have a flag there to pull and hang because no one bothered to put it up. Then they said "oh well" when they were called on their error...I'd have told them to shove off and quit the league too.

[Warwitch]

Good for them. The NPPL is in need of a serious colon cleansing.

[Ninjeff]

yea. gotta side with Joy on this one.

At least the reply by the NPPL seemed like they were going to try and reach some type of solution.
