They beat us (Doomsday Sin). I consider that a quality win. You beat us too for a quality win. I don't feel bad losing to two top teams, just like the Grizzles.

I dont feel we are better than any of the top teams really...i feel we are just one big cluster of teams behind the Monkeys who on any given day a decent gameplan could disrupt...

We still are yet to face either the Taints or Tigers...i feel that we could very well hold our own with either of them.

Trojans seems to talk A LOT OF CRAP OUT HERE I guess he can because the odds are his team will NEVER get to play any of the big boys from the Western Conference. You need to play for a title to do that and they probably won't



I didn't talk any trash, not sure where you saw me do that. I was talking trash about 4-5 days ago with Grizzlies but that's about it, other than that I have been pretty quiet. I was just responding to the kettle meet pot statement by jfbueno. We understand the saying fine, just don't agree with it. Last power ranking I saw Sharks were at #5 which is probably about right, the Grizzlies were at #2 which is what I would call overrated.

I agree that a lot of teams could beat each other on any given day but what's the fun in saying that? It is way more fun to trash talk a bit and then when you lose have to eat crow, right?

We had the better stats...We had better leveled players...how is that overrated? Even the best teams lose...cant win them all...

Maybe the game outcome isn't just based on the level of your players, I don't know. I just always thought that power rankings were done based upon a team's record and who they have already played against and which ones of those they had lost or won against. You had already lost to the #5 ranked team in a shutout and now you have lost to another team that didn't even make the top ten in the power rankings, so maybe #2 is a little high to be ranked aka "overrated".

Any given Sunday...Any given Sunday. Hate the movie but the saying is true. If that wasn't the case then the Detroit Dump Trucks would have won USA Pro last season.

Patriots lost the Superbowl to the Giants...a team that many made the case were lucky to even be in the playoffs in the first place. Upsets happen...power rankings arent all record...records could vary upon who you have played..the fact that we lost to the number 5 team means literally nothing as 2 through 10 IMHO could all beat each other at any given time...not to mention the rankings were merely based off stats for the most part...

You can't be better than a team that beat you? How does that work?

Yeah, I'd have to agree with chris on this one. The Pewnts beat you, so as of now, they are better. But we shall see come playoffs time. These playoffs are going to be sick. Three powerhouses duking it out at the top 3 spots.
