Dark Side & Itchy Starfish get 1st tie ever

Well, well, well... After 27 years and 10 weeks (420 consecutive games) Mario Cantu (DARK SIDE) streak without a tie was snapped in week 11 along with his brother Anthony Cantu (DARK SIDE) 406 games equaling 26 years and 10 weeks to finish #1 & #2, respectively on the "Most Consecutive Games without a Tie" list. A record that will probably never be broken is safe to say. 

Also getting his first tie ever in franchise history is Matt Nester (ITCHY STARFISH) finishing 11th All-time on the list after 9 years and 10 weeks with 147 consecutive games without a tie. 

On the other extreme is Ruben Avitia (DEATH SQUAD) who holds the most ties in RBL history with 8 and finished his latest 6 year run 22nd on the All-time list with 112 consecutive games without a tie. 

His pops, Mike Avitia (KILLER SCORPIONS) is now tied for 2nd All-time in career ties with 6 and this marks the 2nd straight year he has recorded a tie putting him on a short list of teams to accomplish this feat. 

Congratulations to Mike Roberts (MUNGRAGS), Mario and Anthony Cantu (DARK SIDE), Felix Avitia (LITTLE GUY) and Mike Avitia (KILLER SCORPIONS) who all qualified for the post season in week 11... joining ITCHY STARFISH and NINERS who got in last week.
