As team philosphies diverged between Fresh Kills 2009 co-captains Kevin “The Planet” Foster and Amy Jones, it became evident during the offseason that a few players should part ways with their former team.  Thus, Jones formed the Tompkins Square Riots and took some of the veteran Fresh Kills players with her.  Although Fresh Kills and the Riots will do battle on September 19, Foster is quick to note, “There is no animosity between our teams.  The split was amicable.”

Although Foster remains on Fresh Kills, he has resigned his position as captain after several years as one of the team’s primary leaders both on and off the court.  New captain Dave Sokolyansky, aided by Foster’s mentoring and wisdom, has now filled the empty roster spots with a mix of veteran players from other teams and rookie free agents.  Under Sokolyansky’s direction, the 2008 BTSH champions already have their sights set on reaching the league semifinals for the fourth straight season.

Professional Wrestler They Closely Resemble: Dave Batista. These former champions aren’t getting any younger, causing them to underperform on several occasions.  Nevertheless, they seem to find a way into the limelight every year.
Fast Fact: Justin Ross’ favorite TV show of all time is Saved By The Bell, with his favorite episode being the one with Johnny Dakota.
