16 teams originally.

5 of those teams are still here.

Which means 11 teams are gone.

8 of those teams were demoted standard over 4 seasons - regardless of whether they sold or not.

3 teams left over that were sold back

Not sure what's so interesting about that calculation.


LIES!

lol fine whatever you're talking out of your ass. the number is somewhere between 3 and 11. happy?

And who cares if a new owner sold the team after getting demoted? They're not in APL anymore so it's irrelevant.


stupid kickers :rolleyes:

Legionaires are still Legionaires, still in Africa Pro. So that's five of the original Elephant Conference sixteen. West Coast Warriors are battling in USA AAA, Tangiers Cape Buffalo are lurking in Africa A. The rest are under new ownership, none in Africa Pro.

Durban Donkeys won't be sticking around after this season, either relegating or selling the team back.

*shrugs*

APL has changed from the time it was started. We've seen many teams come up winners, proud and and confident. Some live up to their own expectations, others don't.

Unlike the teams that promote up here, those of us who were originally dropped here have less to measure our progress. Those promoting up have trophies, or the excitement of promoting into a new league. Even those who relegate have a sense of hope, or at least a chance to reorganize, and be more competitive in their new leagues.

I've seen teams come in. Some live up to their talk, and get respect for it, such as Gunfighters and Corsairs. Others fade after finding that Africa Pro is not what they hoped for, such as GRI, or Zambia Zombies, or for more amusement, Fight Club and their quick two game collapse. Others talk, and never even make it here, like Somalia Wasps and the BBE v2. Every season, the cycle repeats itself.

To be honest, I'm bored of it after 4 seasons of this, and this season will probably be no different.

Other than DD...really none of the new teams are talking trash. I know most of the teams in the Lion Conference...they all get my respect. If your in the PRO's you can get beat at any time. Africa PRO is starting to become a very solid league and we should be proud of it...

Somalia Wasps did win AAA but Duckfan sold the team shortly afterwards due to not having any gameplanning help and him not having time to do it in college.

He isn't just refering to this season, every season there is a team that comes here talking trash. However, this goes on in EVERY Pro league when the seasons end.

+1

Zambia is already a top team in the Lion conference without even playing a game...
Top notch owner and team for that matter.

Thanks. You put it better than I did.

I think the fact we are still surviving here is something remarkable. Others may not understand or don't give it a damn, but original owners like you, SheVegas, and myself can fully understand.
However, I'm bored, too.

Research what? Somalia Wasps won AAA, but you sold the team before hitting Pro?

What's relevant, is Somalia Wasps never made it up here. You can wax it any way you want, but your guys posted "Hi, we're going to be here" and never made it. It made for some nice lulz, just as others had some amusement at F4vre's collapse and selling Zombies over Thanksgiving, or thebigcali's rapid breakdown, or Laggo's declarations that didn't happen.

Its not about you, its just general amusement about things not going their way for people who thought that things would go their way.
