1a: Tilburg Lightning – Tilburg comes back to season 6 with a very strong roster as always. It looks like they added some key elements to their roster. They have great coaching and are a leading contender with the Mannheim Jaguars for the Zeta championship. Conveniently the game between the two teams is the last game of the season. It Will be very interesting. Record: 14 - 2

1b: Mannheim Jaguars - My team came back with the same roster but slightly better in many ways, which we’ll hold to ourselves. We are the only team to beat both championship teams from season 5 (Dublin Shamrocks: Zeta and Italian Stallions: Alpha). Going for our 4th playoff appearance in 4 seasons is a big achievement for Mannheim. Easily Tilburg and Mannheim are the top contenders for the season championship. Coaching will become the determining factor. Record 14 -2

3: Denmark Destruction: This team has done a great job at building a winning contender. Last season I thought of this team as a joke, but they came out and proved me wrong. Very scary this season and can surprise a lot to get the championship this season. Record: 13 - 3

4: Helsinki Crabs – One of my favorite teams in this conference, has some of the best coaching in the league. They can beat the best of the best, but seem to struggle at times against weaker opponents. If they can fix these issues, this team also has the potential of being a championship contender. Record: 12 - 4

5: EASTWICK SAVAGES – Before last season this team was a joke in my book, however they have been doing very well against weaker opponents, but poorly against stronger opponents. Do they have what it takes to make a home playoff game? My guess is not yet. Record: 11 - 5

6: London Pounds - This is a team I have kept my eye on for sometime now. They have the ability to be a top team in the league or a middle team. It all depends on how much they want it this season and the time they put into the team. I can easily see this team being a home playoff team, but I can easily see this team missing the playoffs at the same time. Record: 10 – 6

7: Chernobyl Neutrons – No longer a cup cake team. They don’t have enough talent yet, but I can see them making the playoffs. Depending on how the team I know better do with their coaching. Record: 9 – 7

8: Portuguese Men-of-War - This use to be an ok team and then they slipped off the radar for a bit. They have built a solid roster and are ready to compete again. I believe this team has the experience to make the last seed in the playoffs. Record 9 - 7

9: Siena IL PALIO – Has always been a bye week team to face. Easy win or AI tester, but this year they might surprise people and make the #6, #7, or #8 seed in the playoffs. Just need to get it done against the teams ahead of them in this ranking. Record: 8 - 8

10: Berlin Blitzkrieg

11: Monte Carlo Maniacs

12: Brasilia Rockets

13: Trojan Magnums

14: EEORG Blood Ningjas

15: Milano Xela

16: CROATIAN FLESH EATERS – Just very sad on what happened to this team. But I did call that they were on the brink of losing. I guess the former owner agreed with me, and bailed out.

Hoepfully my Men-of-War can add a few wins to our total from last season. We've got the solid nucleus, but we lack depth right now. We rid ourselves of a lot of cancerous agents and useless GM's over the past two seasons, and feel we are likely to improve a bit more this season.

On paper, we should go 9-7. But games arent played on paper, they're played inside of my computer monitor!

If you are a haven for useless GM's, can I join?

It would violate your contract with the Vols.

Hey guys I am the new owner of Rome or now the Croatian Flesh Eaters. The old owner did not have time to run things there. I tried to keep the players but being a new owner i was unable to. Oekius actually has a couple of players on the slow build team. He just didn't have enough time to keep up with the team. We are a slow build team and should be moving down or away next season. So do we get a 300 point spot? LOL

Lol, I just don't know Alpha that much. Here is what I do know though, Volunteers or the Knights for Alpha championship, lol. Who doesn't know that one.

I got a couple threads coming out that I'm sure you will like soon.
