Warrior General Games

i think because who you played and the amount of points u put up...it's about the o and the d...not just the d as to fight to live lol...you the man...

We lost again!

But next game is against the bottom feeders. So, nothing personal Mountaineers, we'll rack up our first win. Ajejes!

Hopefully... Glad to see the Tea Baggers are moving up. Hopefully we can finish out with a winning season this year, if not look out.

BTW thanks for the time you put in for the power rankings. Just another distraction from work for me...

The reason the Hippos are low(ish) in the rankings is because the formula relies on point difference as opposed to average scores, so whilst you may be 2 and 0, you only won those by slim margins, 4 and 7 points respectivly. Also you're 9th... top third and only 4 away from the power 5 annnnnd it's very tight at the top with all the 2 and 0s, except for the Wildcats.

Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm enjoying the Power Rankings, it's my new baby, haha.

F*T*L

does the ranking include the oppenent the team face? is a #1 team beat a #32 team with a high margin counted the same as a #2 team beating a #3 team with a high margin?

well...since it still is very early...and we have had a little bit of a easy schedule as no offense to the new teams...but is just not fair to them as most of us have distinguished teams that have a year in...these guys are new and are not as advanced as some of us...as season goes on this could change...as far as the 1 team beating the 32 team...well like i said it is still early...why u think they are number the 2 last place teams....because we beat them so bad that is why...and it's not being cocky for those of you who are gonna say something...i'm just trying to help fight out and state the obvious...we racked up over 120 points and have given a total of 0 points up...that's saying something...so anyone who feels we shouldn't be up at the top is just not looking at the overall picture...120+ - 0...that's pretty insane...so this is why u have odd looking power ranking...as it will even itself out and be more to the point as the season progresses...lot of games left this is only the second...

ok, thanks bro, just wondering.
good job

Devin you are cocky, but you have every reason to be. Looking forward to you handing our asses to us later on this year.

Also since you are so good you should be throwing out some free advice to the new owners. Help us out a little... No Don't eat yellow snow advice either.

in the matchup review they are rated higher then all the teams in eastern europe and haven't allowed a td.

nevertheless, we'll be top 5 this week.

some of these teams have played crap competition, unlike us.

well only advice i can give you without letting anything go out that can come back to haunt me is...just real simple...when making your team...find players that are more active and honest then ones that just want 100k salaries...as the ones u take care of now...by talking to and making apart of the team and give playing time too...as opposed to just buying...will go a long way...don't be afraid to sign a lvl 2 or 3 because that is someone that can grow with your team...rather than buy the lvl 10 and have him not be committed...get a good core of players that care about playing and you will suffer now but benefit in the long run...not saying don't spend money on talent...but make sure they worth it...by talking to em first....also new owners are just gonna have to take the beating right now til they can catch up...because everyone else is a step ahead of you...maybe look at your strategy and make a few adjustments that you think will benefit you more...look at weaknesses too to make your decision about offense...that's pretty much all the advice i can give...

devin beat the stewart ballers twice last year, but his offense only managed 1 td in 2 games, winning 7-3 as my backup threw a pick in the endzone from the 6 yardline to end the game, the second game i lost 7-3 and his cb crazy legs returned a punt for a td ( i didnt know i had a dt at the gunner spot) and winning 10-3.These two losses haunt me still, i am not saying that i will win like the last time but you better bet we are going to be ready for a war again.You know that other than the team that beat you in the playoffs you are most worried about the stewart ballers

and no i'm not cocky...i just tell it how it is...as anyone that takes offense to it...just isn't reading it right.

well the hippos can look at this one for our page...because last year we did play you guys twice...and both times we were the underdog...as you guys had better ratings but them ratings didn't mean nothing cuz we won twice...and as far as anyone winning and losing...last year it was a toss up on both games...they could have went either way...and i doubt anyone this year will be undefeated come season end...too many good teams...bound to fall sooner or later and if we do lose i wouldn't mind it being against u guys...but on the other hand...we will be ready for war...and we fear noone now this year we are on top looking down instead of being on the bottom looking up... (ps - tell deldo i still watching him lol)

Sounds like a call out to me. Can't wait to play you pussies, yes i said pussies. At least i can just call someone out instead of doing it in a bitch way. Wa Wa WA they played easier teams. See you at the end bud. And also put the haterade back in the fridge.
