Warrior General Games

I agree that players on bad teams CAN rack up stats but that doesn't mean stats are useless.

I recognize that my LB Jordan Law was 2nd in tackles and 1st in fumbles forced in Season 3 because our team was so bad and teams ran like crazy on us in the 2nd half. I'm not saying that he deserved to be defensive MVP.

Sneaky Pete, my WR, was 3rd in receiving yardage last season, again, because we sucked and had to throw the ball the whole game. HOWEVER, he's currently 6th in AA#1 and we're 10-2 so he's on the leader board now because he's had success in helping us get wins.

We lost to the Portland Rain (#1) by 7
We lost to the Tasmania Devils (#4) by 10
We beat Mt. Isa (#9) by 7 points, who beat the AA#1 favorite LVSB (before the gutting) by 3

If we're currently in 2nd, lost to the 1st place team by less than we lost to the 4th place teams, but only beat the 9th place team by 7, how does that mean we only have 2-3 good teams that just beat up on the others?? To me, this implies we have 9 strong teams.

He does have a point...

that tells me 2 things

rain is a good team and the rest of zeta is weak



Hahaha. Now thats some funny shit. I would put money on the Swashbucklers (Our 6th Place team) beating Perth today. I'm a realist but pound for pound Zeta is deep in strength. Our drop off starts after the 9th ranked team IMO.


You rang?

Sounds like a good challenge... I'll have a little more time on my hands this weekend to play a friendly.

Challenge had been sent for almost a day now

If you'd like to have the game on another day, just decline the offer and send me a friendly for the better date.

Sorry guys for the lack of talk on here from me: I have been out of town with work the past week and a half. With events unfolding still with Gustov it looks like I may be heading out of town again. As a result, the next few days I will be incredibly busy and it looks like I will not be able to make the needed modifications with names added to the trophies. I would encourage you to still vote on MVP and all-stars for the season. In the next day or two, I will post the blank slate awards for this season on my photo site and attach links for them in here if someone would be willing to modify them by adding names to them. My apologies again for not being able to complete them with the winner names when it comes time for it.

With the Devils defeating Portland last night, I guess we have 3-4 good teams now instead of 2-3!!

Hats off to the Devils. Can't win with that many turnovers. Much respect.

I don't think anyone from Zeta is saying to strictly go on statistics alone, but we are a much better conference this season and that is very obvious. There has been upsets each week, that never seemed to happen in past seasons.

I'm not trying to put any conference on a pedistal. However I do believe that zeta is worthy for considerations.

At the end of the season we could all schedule a friendly match such as:
Alpha 1 vs Zeta 1
Alpha 2 vs Zeta 2
Alpha 3 vs Zeta 3

Maybe Zeta loses all 8 games, but there is no way to continually put down the Zeta conference until there is solid evidence that we just can't hang with the Alpha conference.

I said the same thing earlier. That is the only way to really know how we stack up.

scrim games do not take in to effect energy, so that wont prove anything sorry guys


and again. i nor anyone else has said that alpha is better than zeta, the discussion has been over not using the inflated stats as a cursor to the awards, thats it

Energy means nothing. We would all be playing on a level playing field.
NO ONE would lose energy so there is no plus or minus there. I say let's do it.

its a minus for teams that rely on depth...just like my team

Id say schedule them for fun... Not for bragging... But for fun

Yeah I feel you, but the winners would brag anyway.
