The APTA released this morning the first official Men’s Ranking of the 2012-2013 season and a new team is at the top of the standings: Johan DuRandt and Matt Porter. The funny thing is that they have not played together since March. How were they able to take over? Pretty simple: Broderick-Gambino could not defend the title in Chicago. Funny, uh!

Another interesting fact about the latest ranking is that at least half of the teams in the top 10 will not play Nationals together this season? Or these guys are just too good and it doesn’t matter who they play with or something is rotten in the state of Denmark.”
