Biggest Gain: Lost Lounge +7
Biggest Drop: Bulls -2, Pelicans -2

Thoughts:

Bulls drop to 2 and Salty takes back 1 while the bulls get another top pro team. Hburg is catching up to Vase Breakers and could take 3rd from them if they beat Salty, ranks are starting to tighten up except for the gap between 8 and 9, Lost Lounge is basically getting free ranks as beating a 40 ranked pro team jumped them 7 spots (might be time to look at elo system cough cough). Not much rank changing in the bottom half but we have two new teams in 14 and 15

#1 The Salty Runback vs #4 Harrisonburg Bulldogs

Thats right Salty, not the bulls hold the number 1 spot this week and we get a classic rivalry Salty vs Hburg. A win for either of these teams can have huge ladder implications. Hburg seemed to have the edge is in this as before Tdiddy took his break I am pretty sure he was undefeated in this matchup when a lower rank than Salty. This will be a low scoring defensive slugfest.

17-10 Hburg

#2 Hawaii Bulls vs #5(pro) Monmouth EVIL MONKEYS

Looks like the ladder is finally throwing the biggest of teams at Hawaii for their torrid climb up the ladder. Though Mon is extremely good and host some very fast receivers. Can Hawaii's defense keep up with them or will this be another shoot out loss for Hawaii?

34-28 Monkeys

#3 Yorickshire Vase Breakers vs 45(pro) Tampa Bay Belligerent Drunks

Tampa seems to be a regular match up for journeyman teams this season and have a decent record. Last time it was a really close game that came down to the last drive and I expect a similar outcome in the same direction.

28-21 Vase Breakers

#5 Glasgow Rangers vs #36(pro) Nashville Ninjas

Nashville is a really good team for their rank and have a very strong defense holding Andes and Hburg to 3 and 14 respectively. I expect them to give Glasgow a hard time but they will win this one.

14-7 Glasgow

#6 Lost Lounge vs 24(pro) Ministry of Dotball

Looks like the ladder is saying its time for lost lounge to fall back to earth. After getting 7 spots from a 40's ranked team Lost is given a team that beat Hawaii to correct it. I think lost louge is on the rise but its gunna be hard to win this one

38-34 Dotball

#7 Atlantic City Hookers vs #47(pro) 1up "Shooting Aeirballs"

Atlantic seems to be stuck despite two consec wins and this will be a good game to challenge them as Airballs is a solid challenge but I expect the win to go to the Hookers on the back of Cobb who is still the best wr in GLB 2.

34-30 Hookers

#8 Air Raid vs #45(pro) Chicago Monsters of Midway

Air Raid has fallen pretty hard this season but they still have a very cushy lead between them and pelicans and they get a team I think they will have no issue with.

39-28 Air Raid

#9 Louisiana Screaming Pelicans vs #44(pro) Dallas Djinn

The pelicans ran out of fish last week vs a Faber team that seems to be picking up some steam and now they get a Dallas team fresh off a win vs Seattle and rumor is the fish shipment will be late which bodes badly for the Pelicans

30-20 Dallas

#10 Amdes Chinchillas vs #52(pro) Sunnyvale Samsquanches

Heres a pro team I havent seen in the Journeyman Ladder circuit. They have a few decent wins and should provide a decent challenge for Andes but I think Andes gets this and manages not to move in the ranks.

28-20 Andes

#11 Cobra Kai vs #42(pro) Budapest Tigers

Cobra Kai has it made this week. They get a mediocre team in which I believe they should coast to a win

35-18 Cobra Kai

#12 Richmond Redskins vs #54(pro) Portland Cardinals

Richmond is back on track and I expect to see them beat a pro team thats lost 5 straight

28-17 Rich

#13 Savannah Stingers vs #60(pro) Osprey Orphans

Stingers perplex me as sometimes they look good and others they are a head scratcher and Idk what to make of the Orphans so this wekk its Mystery grab bag game.

28-20 Orphans

#14 Sacramento Hornets vs #21 Ann Arbor Wolverines

The Hornets somehow managed to sneak back into the rankings this week despite their underwhelming play as of late and they face an underrated Wolverines team who could make its way into the top 15 soon.

30-20 Wolverines

#15 Beastown Beasts vs #58(pro) San Jose Slugs

new team number two The Beasttown Beast. The Head Coach there is lazy and terrible as he just stole his passing game froma team that I wont name and they idk what gets run on defense but they get Ws so I guess their alright. Slugs look like they are meh and I expect the Beasts to pull out a win.

28-20 Beasts

The 3 through 8 ranking spots are really close right now, there are only 11 overall ranking spots separating #3 from #8 while its 16 spots from #2 to #3 and 9 spots from #8 to #9.

We're gonna beat Chicago, and follow it up with a league upset of Salty! Jump back in the top 5 for the backstretch of the season

Apparently salty and Hawaii didn't get the memo that they are journeyman teams.

Yeah, USC does that to everybody. Although if Vase Breakers lose too, it shouldn't matter much to your overall position. If YVB wins, we might be able to get some distance.

what memo? we are to busy to read that

mother effing turnovers... we had two in the first 4:16 of the game (INT on FIRST play of the game, what should have been a WR catch http://glb2.warriorgeneral.com/game/replay/91411/2356457 , fumble next possession)...

morale was totally shot by the 2nd quarter. Game should have been much closer, as shown by the box score...

why am I throwing so many freakin INTs, especially early in games?!?!

Pass accuracy too high lol :/

maybe need more CiT on receiver? since it counters int rolls

GG bulls

GG was close

Running looked slow, and blocking worse.

GG Mem, we're too slow for you for now I think.
