Basically what my comrade is saying is that it sux when we have such a great team and we still hang with teams 10+ levels over us...at lower level or higher level it wouldn't be so bad...but at mid level like this...they're playing with not only 5 - 10+ levels above us, but better eq...as well as veteran abilities...I for one would love to see what it would be like if we was the same level and then replay all these teams and see what the outcome would be 
but can't happen as our team wasn't prepared for the switch like they did...team was created....season later they changed it to age caps lol...
i mean your looking at our next opponent...levels of 30's...and some scattered around...but main players are 30+...to our level 23...that's 7 levels....and yet only -3 underdog....believe that 7 levels would at least swing us as a even matchup lol...
so basically i'm saying good luck to all the rest of you guys...as we'll be bringing up the rear by season end cuz just can't make up that difference....so no point trying...but would like to play spoiler to few teams..

1. Red River Rampage (NC) - Cruising right along, they had a small blip in a ranked scrim against MJM, but both teams were screwing around with the AI, so I won't hold it against them.
2. Minnesota Junk Mailers (NC) - Had an early tournament exit at the hands of JetNation, but they're 21-1 on the season combined, and no one can go perfect at this level.
3. Gone Fishing (NC) - Losses to MJM and RRR were expected after the spy changes came along, but they've still beaten everyone else. No word on if the fish are biting or not.
4. JetNation Titans (+4) - They've started winning games that don't have "lol" attached to them, and have reached the Elite Eight in the GLB tournament. Knocking off MJM in the GLB Tournament was perhaps the biggest win the team has had in a big game to date. Not playing regular season games against Elite opponents keeps them out of the top 3.
5. The Junk Yard Dogs (-1) - Suffered a wtfloss to Vancouver Vipers in the regular season, but they're still alive in the tournament having reached the Elite Eight, so that redeems that loss somewhat. A big tournament game against Gone Fishing coming up will shake the top 5 up a lot.
6. Darwin Desert Dingos (+3) - Lost twice to JetNation, but that is it. They've got the dots to support being ranked this high, they just need to prove they belong.
7. Tehran Twelvers (-1) - Losses to Baltimore Crimewave and Iron River hurt, but they're still in the tournament, and that helps.
8. The Glorious 55 (-2) - Losing in the GLB tournament hurt, and they really haven't played anyone since.
9. Iron River Steelers (+1) - Been holding their own in Elite, but the early tournament and scrim losses prevent them from moving up further.
10. Columbus Angry Dragons (+5) - I didn't really give them the respect before because their roster is short, but other than the tourney loss to RRR they have only lost one game, and that was a squeaker against Tug Valley. Everyone else not wanting to be a top ten team has helped a lot too.
11. New England Cowboys (+1) - Suffered only one loss, a close tournament game against River City Ransom see them move up one spot.
12. Tug Valley Hooligans (+1) - These guys play good ball, they just can't quite get over the hump to beat the good teams consistently.
13. Baltimore Crimewave (++) - This team is up and down like a teeter totter. Right now they're up, losing once to Tug Valley, and gave RRR all they can handle before losing a tourney game by a TD to them.
14. River City Ransom (++) - They've made the Elite 8 in the GLB tournament, so I guess I'll stop holding their early losses against them so much. They were all to teams above them on this list after all. Now having the tools to stop rushing QB's should help them going forward as well.
15. Los Angeles Vikings (++) - You know what, they are the VCU of the GLB tournament. If they knock off Tehran, they might actually belong. We'll see.
Notables
Minnesota Xplosion (--) When you can't beat them, join them. They've cobbled together a frankenteam of pieces from a couple teams through mergers or whatever, and quietly they're 10-0 in the weak League 2. If Chemistry tops out by playoff time they could conceivably win that league.
Holt What I Don't Even (--) They've either been the victim of a brutal first half schedule, or the wheels have just come off their season. Either way, they're out of the top 15, at least for now.
Devils Rejects (--) Ownership decided they'd rather take their chances in League 2 and merged to form Minnesota Xplosion.
Uh Oh Squad (--) Playing in league 4 you've gotta schedule some scrims to get quality opponents, and they haven't done that.
