Did you know that Nick Grillet and Samer Haija had a special kind of reunion at the Valentine's Meet 2011? posted: May 27th, 2011 Yesterday's NSL News update from Brazil included a revisit of the Valentine's Meet 2011 and brought back to attention an interesting situation at the same event.

It really happened, even though the actual team name does not appear on any of last weekend's leaderboards. However, Jenacity comes pretty close to the original team name. The NSL News assumes that the "J" at the beginning of the name is somehow related to substitute "J"ohn Hart "J"r. who filled a slot for a missing Tenacity member.
The season opener at Start Skydiving also included the transition of the MESL leadership. Mike Ashley, who has been guiding the league... (more)
