After the first quarter of play (almost midseason now) West Scranton, Cascade, and Osaka remain the only undefeated teams in the GPL... err I mean OPL. This will change come week 8 when the Invaders take on the Cajun Crushers at home. Two seasons in a row I have hinted at a potential upset in this game... not going to go there this year. In Zeta, Osaka finally erased any doubt that they are for real this season after defeating Bisbane along with some impressive scrimmage wins. Meanwhile, the rest of OPL Zeta lived up to their nickname, "The Meat Grinder", as they continue to beat the shit out each other week in and out.

All that said, there is still a lot of football to be played any many questions to be answered... Can Osaka sweep OPL Zeta.. will anyone step up in Alpha to challenge WSI and CCC.. are the Tasmania Tigers the most underrated team after opening the season with a brutal schedule.. and many, many more.

Falling Of The Radar (Dropped out of Top 10)
**Mean Machine**, Playboy's Players Club

Thirteen teams participated this week.
() denotes first places votes
** denotes gut job

Fun Facts:none this edition


I awarded a first place vote with 32 points, 2nd with 31, and so on down the line. In the event of a tie an average of the scores is awarded (ie. tie for 2nd between two teams results in a 30.5 for both).


Thanks to all those who voted this week!!!

In this league, I feel WSI is tops. Nobody in Alpha can beat them right now....no disrespect to Alpha teams. CCC, Mean Machine, and OPT were the only ones that I thought could do it. CCC cant seem to pull it off each season and I feel they are a top three team in this league(close but just cant get that W).....then MM and OPT are obviously not going to do it now.

In Zeta, There are some very good teams that will just beat up on each other each season. Giving teams 1-5 losses that could very well make the championship game.

Yeah it wasn't even close this season. Zeta destroyed Alpha. 12 - 4.

One of Zeta's teams only win was against an Alpha team.

What does that even mean?


And those bunch of nobodies went 4-2 against Zeta (one of which beat the Devil Dogs, whom the Mustangs just recently lost to), so that isn't saying much for you.
