1.) Leviathans- this team is a top team in the west again this season. they could easily be the class of the conference and will be a tough draw for the playoffs.
2.) Hitmen- This team is like the little engine that could they just keep getting better and better all the time. a very tough draw this season and will challenge for the conference championship.
3.) Whooping Cranes- These guys were my darkhorse last season and with some key additions their defense has gotten better. which is scary to say the least.
4.) Labatt Blue- Even though I do not know much about this team I do know they are good. a top 5 team in the west and a possible conference championship contender also.
5.) Yukon City Grizzlies- Even though this is my team I think we have a good team and we should challenge for a home playoff game or 2 possibly a little better if we can get lucky.
6.) Bootleggers- I think these guys will be a tough team and will be a playoff team but won't go very deep this season but watch out for next season they will be tough.
7.) Future- these guys are in the same boat as the bootleggers they are a season away from being a top tier team in the west.
8.) Bruins- As bad as I hate to be posting this and as much as I dislike Boltz his team is O.K. talent wise. they should challenge for the last playoff spot but could also be a very low team come play-off time.


OK guys lets start ripping hatch for his thoughts and rankings. LOL

That's a sly move lowballing your team's ranking before a big game - Sly move.

Hatch always downplays his team. The Grizzlies will be a 1-4 seed at worst...will kill Labatt.

Hitmen vs. Grizzlies = Biggest game of the year to date.

I'd always take a playoff appearance in my first season after promotion.

Agreed. We just want to make the playoffs and a home game would be huge for us.

Kill Labatt? Really? They should win. There are a few teams that *should* beat us based on player levels. That is the best part, for us. If you win, you should have. If we win or keep it really close, that is a bonus. I just hope that we can shut a team or two up that thinks that superior builds (again, scouting bars are a good indication of this) don't matter in this game.

Have fun being the Danny Almonte of Canada A.

We'll know where we stand when we scrimmage a good SEA AAA team. We are going to lose but we want to know by how much.

yeah, that would be an accomplishment...im not aiming for the title this year, too many good teams, im aiming for maybe 1 playoff win or at least the playoffs....if not that a winning record

That was what the Cranes did last season. We got promoted and set our sights on breaking even and making the playoffs. Ended up with a 9-7 record and an early playoff exit but we are in great shape this season now.

I see a 30+ point win for the Grizzlies. Scouting bars don't mean shit. I don't mean to disrespect your team...though you guys did talk a lot of shit. You'll most likely go 16-0 next season and win the West. LXA learned their lesson early. I just want to prepare you for what will happen starting in week 10. 12-4 and a 5 seed is a successful season for a newly promoted team.

what lesson did we learn? We didn't learn anything from that game tbh. Had we of gotten the Ai's together and actually tried to win then we would have but we are cruising along with old ass AI atm. (me thinks part of that is gonna change)
The fact that the Blitz didn't beat us by more is pretty astounding to me as well.

How long will you guys ride the "no game plan" excuse? If anything, you learned that you need to game plan in A4 to win.

As for your prediction, I'm going to go with a generous 11-5 and a 6 seed at this point. I'm giving you a win over the Valiants since they don't have any owner right now.

Not a excuse tbh. You can go back to season 6 and watch all of our games and see the same D Ai. Offensivly, not sure how old that ai is, i think its a little newer.

And no, we didn't learn that we needed to gameplan in A4 to win, we already knew that. But being evil assholes and all, we weren't exactly motivated enough to do the work. So we decided to see how far we can get without it. Didn't work well and like I said, a few things might be changing. The fun in the game isn't in the team itself, rather, our little dots are just a outlet for the true fun which lies within the forums.

If the forums weren't here, I would probably of already quit playing so whether we win or lose is all cool. I'm still gonna have fun with ya sweetcakes.
