RIO TOKYO fall short of projections, succumb to Belly Jump Passers, 222-183

There's no way around it, RIO TOKYO underperformed, at least based on projections, as Belly Jump Passers secured a 222-183 victory. Belly Jump Passers took an early 40-point lead on Thursday. RIO TOKYO bounced back to take the lead early Sunday, powered by Jack Sanborn (40 points) and the Denver Broncos defense (29). Not to be deterred, Belly Jump Passers rallied later that night, as the Dallas Cowboys defense (38 points) and Micah Parsons (7) put them back in the lead once and for all. Belly Jump Passers (8-5) will look to keep it rolling against WTF Niagara Falls, while RIO TOKYO (9-4) will face Hangtime in an effort to get back on track.
