Bad LUCK come up short of projections, succumb to J-Law's Proballers, 124.4-89.0

There's no easy way to say it, Bad LUCK didn't do their job, at least compared to projections, as J-Law's Proballers came back for a 124.4-89.0 win. After trailing 89.0-86.1 heading into Monday night, J-Law's Proballers charged back behind the Pittsburgh Steelers defense, who allowed only 3 points, surrendered 175 yards, and forced 2 turnovers for 28 points, and Joe Mixon, who ran for 62 yards (10.3 points). Chris Carson (104 Rush Yds, 41 Rec Yds) and Russell Wilson (240 Pass Yds, 1 Pass TD) led the way for Bad LUCK in the loss. J-Law's Proballers (2-2) will look to maintain their winning ways against EZEKIEL 2517, while Bad LUCK (2-2) try to right the ship against I Call John Elway.
