Well done, but to have "shook up the world," you need to beat a team like Rome.
I think if we were to beat Rome, GLB would shut it self down

I know that you're new to the conference, but there was no one here saying that Helsinki is the third best team in the conference, preseason or currently. In fact, I might not have even put them in the top 6 preseason, with teams like Dublin, Tilburg, Mannheim and Eastwick in the conference.
Check out Iguazu's power rankings:

This was before today's games, and it shows that Helsinki is currently the 6th best team in the conference. So while there was an upset, it was by no means a *big* upset.
edit: got mixed up with teams.

Denmark isn't new to the league, just a name change, alot of the same guys are there, just different and better ownership, Im not saying this win is "huge" but impressive to put that much points up against a playoff team, I know I own a team and I would be downright embarrassed if we gave up 70+ to anybody ever, no matter how good the team is...Fact is Helsinki is a playoff team and should not of gave up that many points, dont know if its a compliment to how good Denmark is or how bad Helsinki can play, still an impressive win either way...

I was referring mainly to Gpak's presence in the forums as "new." Of course Denmark isn't new to the league; it was already long established that the team used to be The Shady (yes, I'm calling out the absurdity).

Wow, I didn't realize "Point still stands" is equivalent to me being an "internet gangster."
Let's go through this sequence of events:

I had the initial impression that you were new to the conference, since we've never seen you post before. robjay08 stated that the team is not new, and I agreed with him; my reference was to your presence in the forums, which you then confirmed. You never refuted my statement, so my point still stands.
Not sure how that equated to being an "internet gangster," but so be it. You may be the only one here with that opinion.
