Holy crap what a season for the NPGL! There are so many memorable moments, but the culmination of all of those moments happened in Race 7 during the championship match when Christian Harris from the DC Brawlers hit a 270 lb snatch with 1 second left to win the race by 135 lbs. Christian Harris joins us in Q3 to talk about this memorable occasion.
In Quadrant 1, a week outside of the Anaheim matches and new information gathered, we do a recap of the entire championship weekend and announce the GridGuru’s All-Grid Team announcement.

Honorable mentions have to go out to a few players as well… Andrew Rape of the NY Rhinos, Lindy Barber of the Boston Iron, and not mentioned on the show, but should have would be Marcus Philly of the Phoenix Rise.
In Quadrant 2 we talk about Baltimore and what they should concentrate on the offseason. They are NOT the LA Reign of GRID. They are the POTENTIAL future Boston Iron of GRID and allow us to tell you why. We also talk about a change in the show over the next couple of months before the amateur leagues kick off. We think you’ll love the change while we transition into the amateur season coming soon.
In Quadrant 3 we talk to the hero of the championship match, Christian Harris of the DC Brawlers who hit the “Snatch heard ‘Round the Grid!” He takes us through that moment and the challenges DC had going into the championship match. You don’t want to miss this one.
We also want to take a moment to say thank you for all of your support this year. We couldn’t do this show without you and please keep up the good work by telling all of your friends about us. The best way for you to support the show is to share this with those close to you.
Until next time, clean up your jerks and snatches, drink your beer in batches, and always dominate your GRID matches!
