(S23) - PT1 - With a Little Help From My Friends

[Goat_Whisperer]

Portland Pythons did not have the best season last year, but things are going to be different this time around. The roster has gone through a lot of changes, most noticeable factor is the youthful look of the team, a lot of hungry young players have joined the Pythons, that will automatically push whatever happened last year into history. The hungriness combined with the elite level skill of players like Petrongolo, Wright. Jr, Videl-san, and Macgregor to name few will make Portland almost an unknown team to play against. If you underestimate Portland by thinking the younger players will be no match, the older guys will make you pay for it.

The biggest difference-maker however will be the training camp, the coaches have made sure each player understands what is expected from them, and that is high fitness levels. This team is going to be one of the physically fit Portland teams seen in a long time. Remains to be seen what kind of effect that will have when the season starts, but Portland is moving towards the right direction fast. If the new players are able to learn from the older players, and more importantly if the new players are able to get familiar with everything the coaching wants them to do, Portland will surprise quite a few during the upcoming season.
