I may give it a shot, power rankings arent really "good" until after the 4th game anyway so that gives me time to work on the spreadsheet. We'll see what happens....

It would be for both Alpha and Zeta...since it would be better to include both conferences to get a look at all teams in our league.

I don't do power rankings, yo. That's not what I was talking about.

I have the spreadsheet worked out (for the most part), I just need to simplify it a bit. Should be fairly easy to maintain if I can figure out a quicker way to get the average margin of victory/defeat. I'll keep plugging away at it until I can come up with something.


Bolt I was talking about "ME" doing power ranking for both Alpha and Zeta.

no, the lyrics really are just some of the stupidest I've ever heard.

all I'm going to say is.................... AMSTERDAM SMUGGLERS!

The Parrots are getting better. We'll compete with the smugglers and the Jews.

NO YOU WONT! NOBODY IS A CONTENDER! NOBODY!

by the way I like how you added ......."and the jews".

Standings so far (record, and record of teams they've beaten as a tie-break, etc):
1. Amsterdam
2. Konoha
3. Quebec
4. Antwerp
5. Hamburg
6. Cardiff
7. Newcastle
8. Vienna
9. Athens

Barring a big upset, Amsterdam should go rolling into the matchup vs. Quebec with a 7-0 record; after a tough schedule the first 4 games, their next 4 opponents are 1-3, 0-4, and 1-3 respectively.

Konoha has a tough 3-game stretch coming up. They face teams that are 3-1, 2-2, and 3-1.

Quebec has the most lopsided schedule in the conference. They only play 1 team above .500 before week 8, and only one team below .500 from then on. The matchup with Newcastle (3-1) next week is interesting, but see the note on the Nightmare below. We're looking at game 8 as the earliest that the top spot in the league is determined.

Antwerp is an interesting case.. They are 3-1, but their only loss is to Amsterdam and they're the only team to play a somewhat competitive game against the Smugglers. Even then-undefeated Cardiff was dismantled 41-0 by the Dutch side. Antwerp's beaten some good teams. They _could_ be as good as the second best team in the conference.

Hamburg and Cardiff square off next week; both are 3-1 teams with their only loss against a quality team. Hamburg's beaten slightly better opponents, Cardiff's loss was to a tougher team. They seem pretty even so far, so next week will sort that out.

Newcastle is 3-1, but the teams they've beat are a combined 1-11. More data is needed to figure out how good they are. They did play Konoha somewhat close--but so did Dresden.

GAME OF THE WEEK, week 5:
Konoha (4-0) vs. Antwerp (3-1). As discussed, Antwerp is the best 3-1 team in the league. A huge victory by the Hokages could put them in the discussion with Amsterdam for best team. A victory by Antwerp and you have to start thinking seriously about whether they're the 2nd best team in the conference.

Undercard: Cardiff (3-1) vs. Hamburg (3-1) in what appears to be a closely matched fight to determine which of these (if either) may turn out to be one of the conference's elite teams.

We have the edge against the Welshmen in every department -- especially grammar.

Antwerp will be the #2 seed in the playoffs. Mark it down.
