==Notable occurrences==
* On January 29th, 2014, after a close 6-point loss at home to the [[Santa Ana Spectrums]], rookie {{ID|Travis Buckner}} of the [[Texas Lone Stars]] punched a reporter and knocked him out after said vole outed the koala as being a eunuch during a post-game press conference. The incident resulted in a suspension and fine for the forward, as well as an indictment against the rodent for violating the medical rights of the player.

* The season started off with reigning [[Most Valuable Player|MVP]] {{ID|Shane Rufus}} being traded for {{ID|Wendy Brown}}, sending Shane to the [[San Jose Thrust]]. {{ID|Redawn Fenwatcher}} joined her boyfriend on the Thrust soon after. The incident is noteworthy for the love triangle that occurred last year involving {{ID|Dylan Redfield}}.

* The [[Hawaii Kahunas]] are noteworthy for their draft of a street rat named {{ID|Alphonse Norwich IV}} who's made waves from his surprising history and popularity.

* Bangor, Maine had a very notable off-season, signing free agents {{ID|Lucas Dupre}} at a $175 million 7-year max contract, {{ID|Omar Pink}}, {{ID|Rachel Barsky}}, {{ID|Alejandro Perez}}, and {{ID|Constantine Jones}}.

* {{ID|Barnaby Jazz}} stirred up controversy with his questionable costume selection and subsequent actions in the final round of the [[2014 All-Star Week#2014 FBA Dunk Contest|2014 FBA Dunk Contest]]. Shortly into the second-half of the season, an apparent collision with then teammate {{ID|Mitchell Redding}} saw the superstar veteran come up injured and the rookie receiving not only a team suspension but also a league suspension (10 games) and fine ($50,000).

* Both the [[Las Vegas Wildcards]] and the [[Montana Howlers]] chose to buy out the contracts of {{ID|Vishnu Cross}} and the aforementioned '''Wendy Brown''', respectively, pushing both teams over their salary cap for the season. Neither team made any effort to rectify their budget issues and voluntarily prevented themselves from post-season qualifications, even though Montana was still in the thick of the playoff hunt. The controversy led to a managerial and coaching change with the Howlers, as well as the creation of [[General Manager Resource#The Amnesty Rule|The Amnesty Rule]].

* The [[Albany Alphas]] and the [[Pittsburgh Keystones]] both suffered from late-season skids that kept them from making the playoffs, with the Alphas losing their last eleven games of the season and the Keystones losing 17 of their last 20 games of the season.

* With the defeat of the reigning champions in the Western Conference Quarterfinals, [[Dakota Bikers]]' owner Bernard Dwight instituted "The Purge" and let go of nearly everyone in upper management, including former [[Awards#Finals MVP|Finals MVP]] and General Manager [[Vicki Turner]].

* Despite his team going into the playoffs, '''Shane Rufus''' had announced that he would retire at the end of this season. He waited a full month after his defeat in the Western Conference Semifinals before holding a press conference to finalize his official departure as a player in the league.

* The [[Santa Ana Spectrums]] not only earned their first ever winning record in franchise history by ending the regular season five games above .500 but they also advanced to the second and the third rounds of the playoffs before falling to the [[Edmonton Totems]] after a grueling schedule of 21 post-season games.

* Both teams in the [[2014 FBA Finals]], the aforementioned '''Edmonton Totems''' and the [[Tennessee Moonshiners]], had never made it to the league championship series prior to this season.
