Warrior General Games

I'm not trying to "rise in the ranks". The games themselves will do the talking. I'm fine with no one giving Spokane respect, the championship trophy at the end of the season is enough for me. My "role" isn't to sit back and let a team who isn't even going to finish top 4 think they are God's gift to EE#8. Spokane isn't going to be the only team to shit on you - the Dragons and Blaze will as well.

At the end of the day, Spokane has some of the best talent playerwise and solid coaching/gameplanning, so I don't see anyone being able to stop us. You can continue to carry on with nothing but talk to back it up, however. We'll let the games do the talking.

yes lets let our play do the talking. Well personnel wise, the Mafia are up there with the elite in this league. We do have top level players with good builds that CAN play. As for coaching and game planning, we do that pretty darn well too. When we play a game that matters, the GMs put in ALOT of time and effort into scouting the opposition and putting up a solid game plan (as we WILL be doing with the 3 mentioned teams you mentioned because we KNOW that they are good.) I do like to talk, but remember it's all in good fun. I know that it is in the realm of possibility that the Mafia could lose to one or two of you (though it is highly unlikely), but all I really care about is that the Mafia make the playoffs and get to play the best teams in our EE#8 conference. I mean just because we kill junk teams doesn't mean we are weak... it just means we haven't played any good teams yet. If the Florida Gators started the season playing weak teams, would that mean they were weak, or just untested?

Well looking at your rosters and the side by side matchups, the Mafia will be a match for all 3 of the top teams in Zeta personnel-wise. In fact, if we go by player level and personnel alone, the Mafia should do just fine. The only thing that could bring the Mafia down is a low overall ranking as the Mafia reloaded with top talent at the beginning of this season so team chemistry is a bit low.

It's all in good fun on my end too. A little trash talk never hurt anyone. This season is going to be a complete and utter joke until we hit playoffs. The side by side matchups should be taken with a grain of salt when you are considering teams at a higher level, however. At that point it's typically all gameplanning and schemes.

But, at least I'm sure we can agree that whoever emerges the victor of Zeta is going to absolutely SHIT on the Alpha champs. They have all one 1 team that can stack up to the top 5 of Zeta.

How about Spokane River Rats good Samaritans. It would be unfair to the rest of the conference for us to go 16-0, so well probably just throw one for the heck of it.

Its the same thing only different...... In all seriousness it will be a good game, and a challenge.

Dragons and Blaze will be a challenge, I honestly don't see the Mafia as such.

oh ouch. As the owner of the starting HB, RG, and K on the N.J. Mafia... that hurts. May I ask why you want to underestimate us?

Because he has more players on the Rats than you have on the Mafia, all over level 40.
