    U mean they like winning so much that they can't split the team up by now, they've been a team since before town had a highway & they refuse to play against each other just so they can win a meaningless title every yr. Who are they beating every yr for these 15 titles, the same ppl....geez let the sport grow man

      If the titles are so meaningless why are you commenting? So let me understand you. You grow the league by diluting the product you put on the court? If you are so concerned bring some new talent yourself or be like Smoke or Jackie and train some from young.
