The Beeters were established after [[Season 2]] when sam333 took over as GM of the [[Prime#s]] and re-named the team. Sam333 was originally the GM of [[Team sam333]] during the [[Trial Season]], but chose to become a player temporarily for the first two seasons after the league [[reset]]. Although the team has been re-named, technically the Beeters are the continuation of the Prime#s, so they are considered one of the [[Original 4]] teams. Also called the "Beets", the team is based out of Brampton, ON which is also the hometown of Colorado Avalanche center Matt Duchene.

The Beeters had a pretty inauspicious beginning. Late in [[Season 2]], [[Prime#s]] GM JaymondFlurrie agreed to step down and promote sam333 to the leading role. However, when sam333 revealed plans to re-name the team, things turned ugly. JaymondFlurrie did not like the idea of his team losing their identity, and quickly tried to trade sam333 to another team to cancel the impending transition. However, no other team wanted to get involved, and the re-naming was inevitable. After a little compromise, the team began as the Brampton Beet#rs at the start of [[Season 3]].

The Beeters were established after Season 2 when sam333 took over as GM of the Prime#s and re-named the team. Sam333 was originally the GM of Team sam333 during the Trial Season, but chose to become a player temporarily for the first two seasons after the league reset. Although the team has been re-named, technically the Beeters are the continuation of the Prime#s, so they are considered one of the Original 4 teams. Also called the "Beets", the team is based out of Brampton, ON which is also the hometown of Colorado Avalanche center Matt Duchene.

Team Founding

The Beeters had a pretty inauspicious beginning. Late in Season 2, Prime#s GM JaymondFlurrie agreed to step down and promote sam333 to the leading role. However, when sam333 revealed plans to re-name the team, things turned ugly. JaymondFlurrie did not like the idea of his team losing their identity, and quickly tried to trade sam333 to another team to cancel the impending transition. However, no other team wanted to get involved, and the re-naming was inevitable. After a little compromise, the team began as the Brampton Beet#rs at the start of Season 3.

Expansion

After winning the Championship Draft for Season 3, the Internationals had the most to loose from an expansion. They had already lost their captain klozge soon after the season ended when he demanded a trade and sent to the rival Mongooses in exchange for drop_the_gloves. Then they found out that they could only protect up to 4 players (and no more than $3.3M in Season 4 salary) before the expansion draft. GM AvsJen scrambled to protect as many key players as possible. Fortunately the veteran rusavsfan agreed to re-sign to a 1-season deal for league minimum ($700,000) and she was able to protect him, as well as svatty, Javris (formerly Barney_Sumner) and newly acquired drop_the_gloves. However, they lost rising star caw9000, who was drafted by the Fighting Pineapples in the 2nd round.

Season 4

Season 4 begins on October 7, 2010.

Other Information

Former player klozge helped popularize the "Goat Train" concept. Prior to each week, he would post random pictures of goats and trains as a sort of good luck ritual.

Rival GM A33 of the Mongooses began taunting the Internationals by calling them the "Panties", because of the similar sound to the nickname "Inties".

For a brief time during Season 3, the Internationals were based out of fictional place "Intieland" when the league requested that all teams list a hometown. However, this rule was lifted prior to Season 4, and they went back to being "The Internationals" due to the fact that by nature, Internationals have no defined hometown. The Intieland location was often mocked by other teams. They remain the only team without a specified hometown.
