Thanks Nola, we do have two excellent coordinators, hopefully we upset a couple of teams this season.

At this point I'm really hoping the Eskimo hunters are one of them. (-;


Hey I am not trying to hate on you guys and I know this comes with the territory of doing power rankings. It puts a big target on the back of my team because of it. I try to show respect to every team and do it honestly. Sometimes I am wrong and if I am with you guys then good luck to you. As I get to know teams I do start to take into account the GM's. Bottom line is I don't know your team right now so it is a little more difficult and can only take your players at face value. I ranked the Lights higher because I have been around them longer and know the great job they do GMing. IMO one of the best in all of GLB.

2 out of 3 seasons I have done the rankings I got into a beef with someone who didn't agree and was a jerk about it. So I am just trying to cut things off before they start again here. I do this purely for entertainment purposes and to keep the forums active and give it a flavor. I don't dislike any team in the conference and do have a health respect for all teams here. (well except the jaguars for obvious reasons.) 14 teams worry me in this conference and unlike seasons past, I can't see one game were we will slack on game planning this week because it is an easy win. If you don't agree with my rankings then it is ok. I wish the best of luck to every team in the conference.......well except the week you play the hunters.

No offense taken on my part, you'll adjust to my sense of humor the more you see it. You'll have no beef with me, although I will continue to bust your ,.....well you know.

I still will have week 12 circled on my calendar too, what better way to let people how good my guys are than from the lips of the guy who makes the rankings.

Seriously it's all in good fun, ask Nola, he'll tell ya we had a good time in BBB.
best of luck to you as well....except week 12.

Crowbar, I think you do the best job I've ever seen on these rankings game by game. Don't change a thing, I'm sure I'm not alone in appreciating them.

I don't think Adamsfore was trying to hate on you. He's a pretty swell guy, but sometimes it's easy to take one of his posts as harsher than intended. When the Yaksmen first dropped down to BBB last season, we spent several days in each other's faces in the forum. Over the course of the season, I came to realize he's a good sport and an even-tempered fellow who just has a mildly caustic sense of humor (some might call it wit, if they're generous ) that gets magnified in the sterile and context poor medium of message boards.

Some call it "wit", some call it a warped sense of humor, but either way it's just funnin.
Hell my OC willyf hated me the first year or so he knew me, now when he sees me at our fantasy drafts he kinda likes me.....alright , at least he doen't throw up in his mouth any more when he sees me.

Crowbar I would also like to thank you for the rankings and writeups each week!! Keep up the great job that you do on these reports!!

Crowbar... I love the power rankings.. keeps the boards active and gives everyone a reason to talk some shit... I AM noticing that you have to pay a little more attention to game planning up here in "A" ball. We occasionally would beat teams with 3 point "level" differences on us (sometimes easily)... that HAS NOT been the case in A3 thus far. I just think we might have landed ourselves in a pretty tough division.... because the Yacksman did hand us our asses last season, and they certainly aren't running away with anything up here either

Heh..... well you can understand the rivalry we felt toward you guys (one sided as it was)..... Last year was supposed to be OUR year in BBB#6. We would have one the conference had you not "shown up"

Instead we got promoted without a Trophy!!

--disclaimer -- i also do this in good fun. sometimes it's hard to write something without it sounding inflammatory. We're just here in A-Ball, hopin' to stay while keeping the same group of players together (which is tough).
