new york gangsters.

this is team is coming off of a surprise championship berth after most people thought they would be bounced quickly given there league play. they surprised many with there late season push and high powered offense. they currently have 43 human players all under contract. the majority of there runner up team has remained in tact with a few new additions though minor enough to not really be a matter of concern. they will look to take last seasons momentum and run away with the gamma division and improve on last years mediocre record. they have a ladder ranking of 107 which is the second highest of any of last years teams. there overall rating is 38 with solid ratings across the board. there one stand out position seems to be at quarterback where they have the highest rating in the league.

players to watch.

Nate Burleson - lead the team in receiving yards and touchdowns, he is the main focus of there passing attack and will have to keep it up this year if no other receiver steps up there game.

someone from the dline.- mikasa ackerman is no longer on the team and he lead the team in sacks last year by a large margin. someone is going to have to step up and replace his production.

Keep and eye on.
can this team keep up there mojo from last year or was it a fluke? the talent level seems to be there and they have a weak division so we might not find out til playoff time comes around.

Canton Bulldogs.

this is one of the new teams to the league, they come in with 43 human players with the majority sticking around from last seasons team. they did win the now defunct lion league last year, but with any league that goes defunct you have to question if they really faced strong competition given there overall record. the team is rated at a 36 overall which puts them on par with the lower tier teams in the league and there quarterback situation is atrocious. with all of there players under contract and a full roster, this seems to be the team they plan on taking into this season. you have to imagine they will be cocky thinking there league championship makes them good, but a rude awakening might just be in there future.

players to watch.

Cam Newton - this will be the teams only rostered quarterback next season and it will be his first as the full time starter. his numbers last season were pedestrian at best so he will really have to step his game up if he plans on winning some games.

Ozzie Newsome - a very productive tight end with 7 touchdown receptions on the season, but might see a massive drop off with the change at quarterback. can he be good enough to bail out this teams lack of a strong signal caller?

keep and eye on.
this teams offense, can they produce enough to keep up with the offenses in this league? the chemistry is there, but is the talent?

rhode island aftershocks
this team is pretty blank with only 13 human controlled players. this appears to be a new owner with no record on paper. the team is rated a 32 overall which puts them in the bottom tier of teams but they are even across the board. they might just be able to pull off an upset over some teams based on that.

the cpu's - will the owner find players to fill out his roster and provide his team with talent?

keep an eye on.
what this owner does with his roster, if he can sign players this team might make a splash in a rather weak division.

texas toast
this team is a wildcard, new owner, no record but he has almost completely filled out his roster with human players. there are a few rookies though and the oline look suspect. they are rated a 37 overall which means they do have the talent to push teams and win some tight ones. the majority of there talent seems to be on the defensive side of the ball so if they can keep other teams in check, they might just be the surprise team of gamma division.

players to watch.
fox mulder/not batman - not batman seems to be the starter for this team, but you have to wonder if they will give fox a look if things dont go well to start. batman put up more yards in his games last season but had a ugly 2 td -3 int mark. mulder didnt have the same yards but had a much better 5-1 ratio which suggests he might be the better option.

the guap - he seems to be the havoc maker on there defensive line, it will be interesting to see what he does in a full season in this league and if he can be the disrupter that causes problems for quarterbacks and gives the team a chance to win.

keep an eye on.
how this team fills out the rest of its roster, it has glaring issues on the oline that need to be handled if they expect to have any success.

Canton did have to go through the Hawaii Bulls to win that championship, and the Bulls were legit - I think they finished top 15 in the Ladder (can't tell now, 'cause the Bulls reset). I'm not really familiar with the rest of Lion, so don't know how weak the division was. There weren't any other top ranked teams, but I have no idea how many teams in the top 100 or so there were.

We had a late arrival on Defense so there is someone who is filling that void

i figured they had to have played someone decent as there are no easy ways to win a championship. but looking at there roster, numbers and there overall record which was 13-15-2 and there 36 overall rating i cant imagine they had to tough of a league. thats just my thoughts though, once the season starts its anyones ballgame.

Storm was a late addition and clearly proved he was the best!
