Nice - thanks to bill for taking the time to do this.


I don't see anyone challenging the River Rats in the East. West looks a lot deeper although Horde appear to be the class of the league at this point.

Oklahoma City Strikers brought down the Richie Royales... I think the horde is going to get a run for there money come the end of the season.

Don't look past next week. I think the Grave Diggers could give you a good game...

From what I see scouting the conference and having already played 4 of the top 5, Memphis is the one team that stands out. I'd say Viridian is a strong second but in facing both teams in the first two games of the season, I found Memphis to be the deeper and more talented team. After that it's Lizard Lick (who I've yet to play or fully scout, but they look like a solid #3 on paper) and then several average teams who have enjoyed deceptively easy wins against the much weaker squads in the bottom half of the conference (my own included).

Viridian also gets one of the top teams from the West in San Diego to close out the season which I see as a good chance for another 'L' dropping the Vanguard to 3rd behind LLLL.

Of course we're only halfway through the season and there's a reason we play all these games, so there's always the chance of it unfolding a bit differently to keep it interesting!

Yes, I fully agree. Not one team is going to be fully dominant and unbeatable. I really think the Barbarian Horde will receive a loss before the end of the season.. the western conference is very well balanced. As Umen Said, it all comes down to the better game plan.

It's very possible that we will receive a loss either in the regular season or in the playoffs. We're working hard to avoid that though.

Our goal this season is to run the 20 games and move up to AA.

Hopefully our trade for a level 10 RB will improve our less than stellar running game.

I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome of the Long Beach(0-8) and Murder city(0-8) game.

Things could change between now and the end of the season if someone adds a player, of course. But I could see any of the top teams winning the league. Sure, I think the Horde have the edge for now, but as demonstrated in our squeaker against the Royals, some of these matchups are pretty close to a toss up. But don't think we aren't trying to figure out how to improve our edge through scouting and tactics.

I know we (Tennessee Fury) are better than 15th overall. After all, our losses came (at the time) against undefeated teams. We've had some stiff competition, but managed to knock off #6 (Viridian Vanguard), which is a very good team. Since that time, we've won 4 games straight.

It's going to be an interesting matchup with Washington Slashers (7-1) this week. Despite the difference in the records (as they have only faced one quality team), our teams look fairly comparable. It should be a hard-fought, close game.



That was a good hard fought battle. I believe you all should be ranked higher than 15th as well. We will surly be seeing you all in the playoffs.
