Because every league forum is made 10x better by someone posting these.

For the preseason, I'll just be using a script as opposed to a script and personal opinion since there's nothing to base my opinion on right now....okay, there's some opinion in there. And I may or may not be biased. Deal with it

Enjoy.


Zeta Conference


The Contenders

1 Washington Lightning
2 Diggersboy's Dolphins with Frickin' Lasers
3 New Jersey Storm
4 St. John Rumrunners
5 Lowestoft Trawlermen

These are the immediate conference contenders. Expect these teams to be fighting it out for home playoff games near the end of the season, as well as the matchups between these teams to be entertaining ones. The top 3 teams are nearly interchangeable.


The Wild-Cards

6 We Try Hard
7 Midgard Screaming Eagles
8 Columbus,Ohio Little Irish Rebels
9 B P Oil Spills

These 4 either fall just short of being a contender, or lack the apparent depth. With the right tactics ( or luck) these teams all have the propensity to pull off an upset. One of these will miss the playoffs; I won't make any predictions. I do think the BP Oil Spills were a bit underrated by the script and their 9th ranking might be a little too low.

The Other Guys

10. Sainte-Foy Nordiques
11 Disciples Of Azathoth
12 Tennessee Danglemiester's
13 San Francisco Sucka Frees
14 Rostock Sharks
15 Alhambra Dirty Itchy Crabs
16 Millway Mountain Lions

Thanks for showing up.

Alpha Conference

This league is going to be competitive without a doubt. The Alpha conference displays plenty of strength.

1 Shock Collar Gladiators
2 Farkistan Demons
3 Ft. Polk Mountain Soldiers
4 Vienna Mountain Llamas
5 Chicago Blitz
6 Invaders Strike Back
7 Georgia Dawgs
8 Bay of God's Mercy
9 Cobardes Felomenais
10 The Irish Storm
11 North America Noblemen
12 The Blazing Eagles Casual
13 Anahuac Soldiers
14 San Diego Reapers
15 Hamilton Ticats
16 Modesto Nuts

I'll do my Season Preview at the end of the preseason. That should be a bit more comprehensive and I'll try and put my thoughts on every team.

Yeah this is pretty cool Two thumbs way up for doing this. Georgia Dawgs #1 at the end of the season. Ok that may be a LIL bias.

OK, I'll bite: exactly how does the Alpha conference display any "strength"? Is it because they don't have six CPU teams?

Pretty much. I'm just being as vague and general as possible since I don't really have the time to go in-depth. The script says it's a stronger conference, so I'm going to write that it displays strength.

Having mostly human run teams with full rosters helps too.

I'll buy that. I only question because my quick glance over the Alpha teams didn't lead me to think they were any more special on top (read: teams with a shot at a playoff seed) than their Zeta counterparts, but the preseason results are bearing out your assessment.

Wild guess: no one is trying to win the preseason, so the results only point to loldot talent and not to GM magic. I can state without question that two of our preseason games were against teams that weren't trying.

I had one meaningful preseason game the rest seemed like they weren't trying.

In that case, I'll raise my hand.

I think I get the cut of your jib.

I hope you're right. I'd like a playoff appearance this season.
