No love? Geez man...you shouldn't let last year bias your rankings as we've easily turned it around getting as many wins as we had last year combined.

Sure we don't have much chance against the Sharks or the Grizzlies but we'll try and give them hell and its not like they should still be here considering they transferred into the league as opposed to being expansion like we were last season.

We look forward to changing your mind.

Top 10...what the heck do you want from us? Its going to be hard to judge you guys until you face either us or the Sharks...its not last years bias...its clear cut from what I can see...

IN our defense.. The Mauraders have an inactive owner and all of our guys left when that owner said he didnt want the team any more. We had to shop for players for two days and nobody would sign with us because of the inactive owner. Hell I only came over to help my friend out after he told me what was going on


Ya its definately been a mess since playing you guys game 16 of last season.


yea..its pretty crazy.. When I signed on..there were only like 4 LBers..INCLUDING me..only one CB.. LIke EVERYBODY left. We recruited for days and days and nobody signed because Annieman is inactive. We only got lower level guys..and most of yall are 18-20...So we get blasted every game

I believe 50% of each conference was "expansion" last year. Plus its hard to advance 3 teams onwards out of the same conference. I applaud your abilitiy to field a quality team, but this is a brutal league. This time last season I think we were ranked no higher than 6-8.

Well the Pewnts practice squad got a chance to run tactics on us. Anybody up to let me guest-host coordinate a Pewnts' opponent's game? Nice to have a bite at the apple in regards to tactics when looking towards a possible championship game preview. Just sayin . . .

Great game today HH. If not for a fumble punt return for a TD I don't think we would have comeback to win that game. That was the turning point for sure.


yeah, six turnovers to two will do it every time.

the computer fucked us again, two weeks in a row. I doubt it would have made a difference, but i'd at least like to see some consistency on fourth down plays and whether or not the team goes for it. We were down by 3 points w/ 3 minutes left in the game, and we don't go for it? We punt? Last week, we were down less than a touchdown and there was 10 minutes left and we go for it on 4th instead of kicking a FG, and then again w/like 5 minutes left...the same thing. Consistency or at least the ratio of what the computer deems acceptable for going for it on 4th down and 3 yards to go w/3 minutes left in the game.

But ultimately the turnovers did it. GJ Bolts, maybe we'll play again. This is the second heartbreaking loss we've taken at your hands.

I wasn't talking about the rankings. Just the commentary after it...I mean we won a game albeit a close one and it proves that we're not that good? I dunno I understood the ranking last week cuz we hadn't played that many good teams yet and didn't mean to offend either the Grizzlies or the Sharks cuz I think they are both some of the roughest teams anyone in the league will face. I don't know too much about the Pewnts cuz I don't think I've ever played them...then again we might have cuz i kinda mailed it in on scouting sometimes it was just too depressing.

Whats wrong with the commentary? Your kind of confusing here...you say that you probably wont be able to hang with the Grizzlies and Sharks (Elite)...yet you want to be known as an elite team? Ya, a close game with the Wolves does kind of show the Sharks and the Grizzlies that you arent running an elite show. Congrats on the win and good luck the rest of the season.

He is not saying he wants our team to be called with the elite, he is saying you are treating us like an underdog cinderella team that doesnt belong in this league. We get a win a your comments make it seem like these wins are just plain luck. You sound just like those so called "EXPERTS" on ESPN. We scout day in and day out and work hard to beat whoever we are playing whether it be an "Elite" or "Cupcake" team.

See you June 29th..............

Just to clarify, you were never down less than a touchdown at any point in the 4th quarter against the Bengals. It was a 13 point game going in and it ended that way. Unless you are talking about a different game, if so my bad..

Yep he pretty much said it for me. I understand who the elite are in this league but why even try to compare us to elite? We won but we get commentary like we lost....its not a big deal or anything obviously cuz we will see if we got enough horses when we hit the meat of our schedule anyway.
