1. Alpine Golfers 6-0: Solid win over Klamath even though they didn't score a touchdown.

2. NMR 5-0: NMR had their offical pad your stats game against Orlando this week.

3. Northside Dreamkillers 5-1: Northside hold another good offense in Harrisburg to 7 points.

4. Klamath Falls Grizzles 5-1: The grizzles came out and gave the Golfer a game which is better than most can say. Holding them without a touchdown is certainly an accomplishment.

5. New Orleans Golden Kangaroos 4-2: New Orleans continues to look solid.

6. Carolina Cardiac Cats 4-2: 4 strait victories is nice but the only good win in that stretch was the win over RU. Everyone should beat Cleveland, Orlando, and the Wolfpack. This week against Alpine will prove if they are contenders or pretenders.

7. Battle Creek Bullies 4-2: Beat a team they should have beat in Cleveland Convincingly.

8. Miami Canes 3-3: Miami moves up this week with a solid road win over Minnesota. I think they will be a playoff team again.

9. RU Scarlet Knights 2-4: Rutgers beat the Scoregasms who they should have beat. The problem is they should ahve beat Battle Creek and the Cardiac Cats with the talent they have.

10. Harrisburg Hawks 2-4: Harrisburg seems to have worked on its defense and held a good NSDK team to 24 points. They needed to score more to get the win but points don't come easily against that defense. They took a respectable loss which is why they move up.

11. Miami Roadfrogs 2-4: New Orleans is a good team but if Miami wants respect they need to play the good teams closer. Harrisburg looked better against a better NSDK team than the frogs did against New Orleans which is why they move down.

12. Minnesota Ambush 1-5: The Ambush isn't as good as they were last season but I still have to think they are better than my bottom four despite their record. Minnesota will need to recruit hard this offseason to avoid relegation next season. They just don't have the talent level to hang in the A7.

13. CAROLINA WOLFPACK 2-4: Their two wins have come over the two worst teams in the league and they have been destroyed in their last 2 games. Buster Beasly is a weapon in space but if you shut him down you shut down their team. Alpine and Carolina proved that in back to back weeks.

14. Athens Scoregasms 1-5: Athens has more talent that a team that is 1-5 should have. They have had a pretty tough early schedule but have lost winnable games. They could end up going 6-10 or so but they will not make a threat toward the playoffs.

15. Cleveland Kardiac Kids 1-5: The Kids take another bad loss. Unless their owner Blarg Utam decides to invest the money to boost his players this team will not be successful on any level. Blarg if you don't have the money to boost an entire team you need to recruit like everyone else if you want to be successful.

16. Orlando Ninjas 0-6: Nothing to say here other than I am excited for the day when gutted terrible teams are not in this league anymore.


This week was pretty uneventful, no upsets, everyone beat who they were supposed to beat for the most part. Next week may be more interesting.

Games to watch this week.

Miami Roadfrogs vs. RU Scarlet Knights: RU should win it, maybe this game can get them back on track.

New Orleans Golden Kangaroos vs. Harrisburg Hawks: Never sleep on the Hawks, they could pull the upset or at least make the game interesting if they play like they did against Northside.

Alpine Golfers vs. Carolina Cardiac Cats: This game will probably be won by Alpine but Carolina has had its share of upsets. The Cats should at least keep it respectable.

They are currently 5-0 but their victories come over teams with a combined record of 8-17. In my opinion a one score victory over Minnesota is not enough to place the Grizzles any higher.


First of all, let me say thank you zgcreech for throwing the east a bone. Thanks for the work and attention.

Now about the Grizzlies. I must say your assessment of us is spot on! We definitely have been enjoying a favorable schedule so far. I consider it a Welcoming Gift from A7 allowing us to ease into the league. We're looking forward to a heavy dose of A7 when we travel to Alpine in a couple days. Then we'll all get a better idea of where the Grizzlies will stand in the league.

Thanks again for the post. Keep it up.

Hey, Purton is Leak lol. I changed his name when we cut him last season for an all Gator team

Great rankings, I changed our defensive AI up alot before our last game so hopefully that fixes our problem, it worked this last game as we only let up 230 yards and 17 points defensively. Take away their one 80 yd td and we did very well. Minnesota isn't no pushover either.

Wow I totally didn't realize Purton and Leak were the same guy lol. Anyway I hope you guys keep it up and get that D turned around since Harrisburg is always in the mix come playoff time.

9. Miami Canes 2-3: The loss to NSDK was expected and Kalmath is a 5-0 team, but WTH Miami how did you get beat so badly by Athens. I am perplexed by this loss as I though Miami was a contender. They still have the talent to make the playoffs but they have to beat the teams they are supposed to beat.


How? 3 interceptions and 2 lost fumbles in our own territory.
