Warrior General Games

Just curious as to what others might have thoughts about our division, in general. For instance, has anyone heard from Vancouver about (1) why they gutted or (2) why they are in Europe with a Canadian name?

Is Tonrino a computer team, if so, why was it not sold at misdeason like most others?

Why is Wroclaw losing so many games? In my opinion, their team is pretty darn good?

Who is USAORG? A Farm team? A coalition team? I don't get the affilation

When you look at matchups, why is Russia ranked so high by the computer, especially at o-line? Compared to Corey and some others, his team does not appear to warrant such a high ranking, he looks even to the other top-tier teams here (Athens, Meat, Estonia, etc.)

Speaking of Estonia, how did they become so dominating? Looking at their roster, they should not be as awesome as they are, yet they are awesome. Is it a genius GM?

Grid Iron: they seem to lose more games then they should, are they getting ripped off somehow? any thoughts?

discussion welcome

USAORG was one of the first organized groupings of teams. As of right now, there are 7 teams that belong to the ORG.

Overall, they are a pretty good group of guys - my DE has been on the Legionnaires since the team's creation.

Have not heard anything but looks like the Split Banan's of Alpha are packing it up now as well.

He was effected in Texas by the great storm and support did not want to do something 2 weeks ago when there was a huge thread on team owners and the teams.

Solid team just a little behind the lvl curve as they probably held their boosts unlike half of Zeta.

We are not a farm team. You do not see me making any trades or pickups now that the cap is gone do you? Unlike others rushing to make something of their team. We are simple a large group of people who have met during GLB and have similiar thoughts and goals. We want to win always. Ive been apart of USAORG since beginning of Season 3 and if I had been in SE Asia probably would have been a USAORG team last season but at the last minute I changed to EE and have not regretted that choice as the competition was the best.

Russia is only at a 51. 1 bump up from a lot of us. They have a higher avg lvl across the board then most of us and they have the depth as well so makes sense to me.

Wife Carriers have a great set of GMs taking advantage of their teams strengths. They edged one out over Athens in week 1 and have RR and myself to play as well as GIV and Lefkada who both play tough despite their rankings. They also get the shaft in out of conference play this season again. Here is to hoping they pull that off and win like last season however I dont wish them luck against us. we need the win.

Again appears they held their boosts. Good solid team just a great league to play in and some of us started boosting early to get some advantage to getting into the playoffs.

I appreciate the compliment on dominating. However, we just lost a big one to the Meat. So I wouldn't call us dominating at all. I would however like to know what looks weak on our roster to cause this question in the first place.

Estoian:
please don't take my comment to mean you look weak. I think you look slightly behind LT Russia, like the rest of us. Look even with Corey Athens, the Meat, and USAORG. Look fairly even with St Pete, Esgares, and my guys... so I am saying that you look like you should be middle of pack or slightly above average win wise, but instead you dominate. So it must mean you have great freaking GMS !!! I am rooting for you to win.

USAORG:
farm club is a derogatory term, I see in hindsight. That was not my intent. Came off like McCain calling Obama "that one". So I rescind the allegation, I have seen nothing that would make me believe you were a farm team cycling players up and down. Was trying to ask if you were one of several teams in a coalition of owners where they all sign with each other. I would like to be in one, myself, and have kinda started one with another owner, where he sends me players for my level apporpriate team and I reciprocate.


Great answers, by the way. Anyone else?
