I'm hoping the Knights can build on last season....we also split with the Tsunami last season. Good to have that rivalry here this upcoming season. SEA #8 original also here........
I'm confused as to why the Tsunamis are contenders but we aren't. Their offense has a new WR as far as I can tell (their #4), as do we (our #1) and their defense has the same upgrades as us - 1 new DT, new LBs and 1 new CB. We also picked up a new DE which I don't see on their squad. Half of our defensive starters from last season are now our backups thanks to our recruitment.
If you go off of levels, the Tsunamis always looked better than us. Once you get up to this level of competition, however, your build is much more important than your level. I know I won't recruit anyone whose build I don't like, and considering that the Tsunamis are a class organization who compete well, I'd guess relatively the same for them. I think that at worst, the Tsunamis and Knights are just as on par as they were last season, which was pretty damn on-par, considering one game was 34-33 and the other, 27-34, was won by three late long TDs, all of which were bone-headed blown coverages by our SS (he whiffs on the ball despite it not being anywhere near him, causing the WR to be uncovered).
No offense zheerwagen, but I can't take stock in a prediction that believes that the Knights and Tsunamis play at different levels. There's simply no foundation for it.
I am a big fan of your team and you guys are one of 2 or 3 other teams in the league that I like to see win. That said the reason you are lower is because you have already attempted to play in AA once and didn't quite make it. I also know nothing about the new teams except for the levels and the bars so I may be completely wrong in that regard. Only time will tell and remember that these predictions are just for fun.
