Okay here are the rankings after game 6.
Here is what I went by:
1) Record or win/loss
2) Strength of roster

LW = Last Weeks ranking

You may or may not agree with them, but this is how I see them.

****POWER RANKINGS****

#1 Pretoria Pigs (6-0) LW 1 -
This little Pig went to market.
This little Pig stayed #1.
This little Pig had roast Face Eaters.
This little Pig had none.
And these little Piggies face Impending Doom next and need to win to remain at the top.
I know that last line didn't rhyme, but what are ya gonna do when on your third vodka tonic while writing these, huh?

#2 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (6-0) LW 2 - Little Fish Rangers beat a solid Nigeria squad to stay at #2. The troubled Bulls are next, so look for them to stay at #2, again.

#3 Texas Armadillos (5-1) LW 4 - The two man army of Texas rolled over the Doom to vault themselves to #3. They take on the Nightmares next.

#4 Banghazi Barbary Lions (5-1) LW 5 - Well the vacation is over. The Barbary Lions look tan and well rested after facing two bot teams in a row. Time to clock back in to work. The Desert Foxes come into town and it won't be like facing an unplugged appliance like the last two games.

#5 Impending Doom (4-2) LW 3 - Two straight losses have dropped the Doom to #5. With Pretoria up next, getting back on the winning track may be a little harder to do.

#6 The African Predators (4-2) LW 6 - Well it's bye week for the Predators and..........what?........they play the Face Eaters?.........like I said, enjoy the bye week Predators.

#7 Detroit Drive-By (4-2) LW 8 - Wow! What a thriller Detroit had with Zimbabwe! Scoring a TD for the win in the last two minutes of the game! We'll see Detroit after they come back from their two game vacation playing both CPU teams. Have fun in the sun Drive-By.

#8 Zimbabwe Bulls (3-3) LW 7 - The road is long and bumpy fort he Bulls in the next 4 games. The Bulls have problems and they need to get them fixed quick or it could be an early exit for them.

#9 Algeria Desert Foxes (2-4) LW 9 - Algeria dropped their game to Strong Badia and are looking to rebound against Banghazi.

#10 Nigerian Nightmares (2-4) LW 10 - Nigeria faces three tough opponents in a row. This stretch is where the level disadvantage comes into play. Good luck Nightmares, you will need it.

#11 Lagos Eagles (2-4) LW 11 - Well lookie here! Lagos got win number two and here comes win numero tres with Djibouti up next.

#12 Strong Badia Tires (1-5) LW 12 - Strong Badia got their first win of the season against Algeria and looks like they could get two more real quick against the Brotherhood and the Face Eaters.

#13 Zulu Brotherhood (0-6) LW 13 - The Zu-losers could be 0-8 by the time they get a chance at a win. The Tires and Desert Foxes are both up next for the Brotherhood.

#14 Rwanda HellFish (2-4) LW14 - Rwanda's game plan for next game versus Detroit Drive-By: Danger! Danger, Will Robinson! Run for cover! Motorized vehicle with numerous, angry gun wielders approaching fast!

#15 Zanzibar Face-Eaters (0-6) LW 15 - Mmmmmmmmm, beer! Lots and lots of wholesome, nutritious beer.

#16 Djibouti White Tigers (0-6) LW 16 - I think the White Tigers need their batteries changed. Try Duracell.

*****PREDICTIONS*****

Well I went 6-2 last set of games. Hopefully this next set I'll do better........or worse depending who you are.

Week 4: 5-3, Week 5: 7-1, Week 6: 6-2

Overall: 18-6
GOTW: 2-1

#1 Pretoria Pigs (6-0) at #5 Impending Doom (4-2) = Pretoria - This was the match to look forward to, but the Doom have fallen. Going with the Bacon Boys on this one.
Game Rating: 6/6 Beers

#2 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (6-0) at #8 Zimbabwe Bulls (3-3) = Taipei - Taipei is looking sharp and Zimbabwe is having some trouble. Take the Rangers.
Game Rating: 4/6 Beers

#9 Algeria Desert Foxes (2-4) at #4 Banghazi Barbary Lions (5-1) = Algeria - This is where the Banghazi fairy tale ride comes to an end.
Game Rating: 5/6 Beers

#3 Texas Armadillos (5-1) at #10 Nigerian Nightmares (2-4) = Texas - Never thought I would think an Armadillo as scary, but.......
Game Rating: 4/6 Beers

#6 African Predators (4-2) at #15 Zanzibar Face Eaters (0-6) = Predators - Ok Predators. To get a win, just put the coin in the slot and pull the handle. These bots pay out!
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers

#13 Detroit Drive-By (0-5) at #14 Rwanda Hellfish (2-4) = Detroit Drive-By - With these bots just put the Pop-Tart in the slot, press the button down and in a minute you get a win and a hot, delicious Pop-Tart.
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers

#14 Djibouti White Tigers (0-6) at #11 Lagos Eagles (2-4) = Lagos - Lagos gets to kick the booty of Djibouti.
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers

#12 Strong Badia Tires (1-5) at #13 Zulu Brotherhood (0-6) = Strong Badia - If Strong Badia is going to make their move, now is the time. Zulu needs to show us something here..........show us anything really.
Game Rating: 2/6 Beers

*GOTW*
#1 Pretoria Pigs (6-0) at #5 Impending Doom (4-2) - This should still be a good game. Doom needs to show it can hang with the Big Pigs if they want back into the top 4.

24/48 beers. Well at least we get the same amount of beers as last time. Some real bad beer games and some real good ones. It's like Milwuakee's Beast taking on Sam Adams.

Good luck to all the teams in Lion Conference!

You are FAST, I love that, always looking for something right after the game. And a few tonics make them even better! not that you should get wasted every other day, just saying, these had an edge

Not only am I surprised by this prediction, but goddamn, I sure do hope you're right. This is my gift to you:

RASPBERRY TRUFFLE
1/2 oz Creme de Cacao
1/3 oz Raspberry Liquer
Splash Coconut Rum

It's a delicious shot, much better than Vodka tonics, and they taste just like candy. I've gotten so drunk on those that it's not funny. I have a whole bottle of that shit prepared.

Well, my team beat a couple of bot teams and has yet to beat a team that really out levels us. We were pretty lucky to get that win over Nigeria.
The Zimbabwe game was more of the fact that the Bulls lacked depth more than we just flat out beat them. I'm sure if they had more depth it would have been a different story.
And looking at the Desert Foxes, you guys have us on levels. I know there is more to it than what level you are, but we'll just have to wait and see.

That shot sounds like it needs a hit of whipped cream on top. Running to the liquor store now, be back later guys!!

Ive tried all damn season offering contracts to TONS of people (decent builds of course) I just cant get shit. Sent PM's Givin a little history... future plans blah blah blah...i cant get one damn person.

Just a few players and im looking good. IMO ive lost 2 games to depth problems. Not that those teams werent good. They are, but i think we have a strong team as well..well..what we have of a team.

Maybe we can pull off getting into the playoffs at least. Gl to you guys..nice damn game to the Drive-by...damn close all game long.

Yeah, the FA market is soooo lucrative. With us in the Elephant, we have kinda gotten owners with multiple players that have stuck together for the past 4 seasons. All you can do is keep looking though, you'll find them.

I'm in the same situation, can't get any player and that's frustating.
