Warrior General Games

it is getting close to playoff time, so this is the format i am going to use for each week for the rest of the season.

projected wins in bold, projected losses in italics

i will no longer be doing "power rankings" as those are based on how good a team is doing based on the season so far and how good they are playing at the given time. these rankings will be based on projected seeding, taking tiebreakers into account.

Thoughts: I think Denver could deserve to be "on the bubble" with some of those teams, but I think their playoff hopes are so nil unless they make some fast moves that it isn't worth it. Top 8 in Alpha aren't going anywhere, those teams can start spending their playoff bonus money. My money is on Birmingham and Palermo locking down playoff berths soon, with Stockholm's going down to the wire.

GREAT WRITE UP! keep up the good work

+1

hmm badens decision to not pass at all (literally) against us backfired, they ran 52 times for 40 yards

chambersburg and athens are on some serious free falls, at least it gets easier for both from here on out with the exception of one big game left for athens.

all I can say about the Stockholm game is... damnit. GG Stockholm thought we would hold up a little better

GG Devils. May we meet again in the playoffs.

I kinda liked goldielax's analysis write-ups, even though he slammed the Ghosts every time as being horrible game planners.

i said it at the beginning of the season, and it was true. ill defend that point. last season cologne did not game plan well. if you lose to teams far behind you in talent you got out game planned.
