And now to introduce this season’s teams!:
The first pick in the CCCTBCRL Season 8 draft went to last season’s last place team, now with a slight name change in the hope for better luck:
Stupid Sexy Curtis
Owner: Eric “The Hammer”
With the first pick in the draft Eric locked down the leading player from last year’s winning team. Then he dug deep be including a world series winning pitcher!
Next up with the 3rd place squad looking for a bounce back season:
The Cheeseless Cheeseburgers:
Owner: Kelly “The Coach”
-
Roster:
- Eric “The Hammer”
- Gerry “The Stud”>
- Tyler “The Deuce”
- Jeff “The Natural”
The Cheeseless are anchored by “The Hammer” and bolstered by multiple Lotus league regulars in the hopes that this will translates into big Buckos League statistics.
Next up was a team on the rise, just one step away from the championship:
Pope Rooster’s Cocks
Owner: Frank “The Student”
-
Roster:
- Chris “The Rooster”/”The Dragon”
- Geoff “The Rookie”
- Ryan “The Mechanic”
- Sarah Lenney
The Cocks form squad of stong regular players and adding an Sarah who would be a total newcomer to the Sport.
Lastly, our Season 7 champion, who comes with a new team and a new team name!:
Reverend, Student, and a Prayer:
Owner: Richard “The Reverend”

Roster:
- Richard “The Reverend”

The team takes their name from their two top picks and are calling on divine inspiration to delivery them a second straight title!
Finally, after the completion of the Season 8 opening series at The Ranch, here are the current standings:
Currently the “Reverend, Student, and a Prayer” are having their prayers answered as they sit on the top of the standings tied with the “Stupid Sexy Curtis” and claiming first via the Total Beers tie breaker. In a distant 3rd is “The Cheeseless Cheeseburgers” and bringing up the rear is “Pope Rooster’s Cocks” who have yet to leave the starting blocks as none of their player have yet to see action in Season 8.
