Alpha Rankings for Week 13
1 (1).... Turmoil Spartans (12-0)
2 (2).... Rhine Revolt (11-1)
3 (3).... Rome Legion (10-2)
4 (4).... Black Forest Brawlers (10-2)
5 (5).... Austrian Eagles (8-4)
6 (7).... Geneva Plague (7-5)
7 (6).... Valletta Vikings (10-2)
8 (8).... Glasgow Bravehearts (8-4)
9 (9).... Marseille Hitmen (5-7)
10 (10).. St. Petersburg Knights (4-8)
11 (11).. Guy Fawkeses (4-8)
12 (12).. Madrid Strikers (3-9)
13 (13).. Capri Elites (2-10)
14 (14).. South Yorkshire Aftershocks (2-10)
15 (15).. Pawtucket Patriots (1-11)
16 (16).. Stockholm Cows (0-12)

the Vikings might feel a bit disrespect, dropping one spot while Rome stays 3rd despite losing to Geneva. anyway, Valletta will have lots of opportunities to prove me wrong over the next four weeks!

on a side note, Valetta has the lowest strength of victory of the top 7 teams at .258, Geneva has the highest at .512 (including inter-conference games)

Alpha Games of the Week

#1 Turmoil Spartans (12-0) vs. #4 Black Forest Brawlers (10-2)
Turmoil enters a tough last quarter of the season and they'll have to prove that they're worthy of sitting atop the power rankings. first up are the Black Forest Brawlers who are at the back end of an 8-game winning streak themselves. this has the making of a great game - get your popcorn ready! I still believe Turmoil will be too much for the Brawlers to handle.

My prediction: Turmoil by 13

#8 Glasgow Bravehearts (8-4) vs. #7 Valletta Vikings (10-2)
the Vikings should be one of the best teams in the league but something seems to be wrong with them. they lost big to the resurgent Plague three weeks ago and trailed the 2-10 South Yorkshire Aftershocks by 14-20 at halftime last week. Glasgow, on the other hand, earns a playoff birth if they win or tie the game or Marseille doesn't win against the Guy Fawkeses.
the Vikings have a tough stretch to end the season, if they don't click they might limp into the playoffs. upset alert!

My prediction: Valletta by 6

Spartans vs Brawlers ought to be a great game. Brawlers are planning to mess this prediction up!!

Anybody else notice that the Pawtucket Patriots have already reverted to CPU ownership? They didn't even make it through one season before folding. At least they got that one victory over Stockholm before they disappeared.

yeah, they've been CPU for at least 3-4 games. hope their future owner will be able to field a competetive team next season.

Yeah, I'm not sure why the team went CPU, none of the players knew about it even . I'm going to be getting another team though next season, I should, and get whoever's left back together again. It sucks, but I'm glad we got a win and will get more wherever we end up . I'm going to go after the WE BBB leagues next season so I'll be sure to get a team, just hopefully I can take over the team as is now .

Record:
This week: 8-0
Overall: 15-1

the Vikings showed that they're back with an impressive win over Glasgow! they better keep this level of play, their last 3 games are tough, tough, tough!

what a great game we saw in Turmoil! the Brawlers almost upset the undefeated Spartans, can't wait for our week 16 matchup!
