A battle of last season's Place versus last season's Show. That's fancy talk for last year's 2nd place team, the Funky, taking on last year's 3rd place team, the Hambassadors. The Hamboys strengthened their hold on the Most Hated Team title by putting up the high score of the week. The win was the Hambassadors third straight opening day win, while the Funky suffered their first opening day loss in franchise history. Donovan McNabb led the Hambassadors with 37 and helped the team recover from Edgerrin James' three missed TD opportunities on Thursday night. RB Shaun Alexander was the only real bright spot for the Funky with 3TDs and 29 points. In fact, Alexander was the only Jamaican offensive starter to even reach double figures. This week, the Hambassadors battle the psycho while the Funky take on the Pigs in a battle of teams who do not want to start 0-2.
