Warrior General Games

Guys, given the curn in the leagues, it just so happens that BBB 15 is probably stronger in the bottom 2/3 of the league than USA A8.

I want to strongly suggest that some of the weaker teams try to swap with some of the stronger BBB 15 teams (probably BBB 16, but I don't know those teams so can't say). Bort and company will do a swap for you if you ask. Also, as a league, I think USA A8 should push for some more promotions demotions if we want to have a competitive season.

These 4 teams in the east are in the low 40s and 30s on the match-up meter and would be happier in BBB:

13 Boston Shipheads 4-12-0 W1
14 Buffalo Beasts 3-13-0 L5
15 Detroit Diablos 1-15-0 L14
16 Dakota Bison 0-16-0 L16

Same with these 3 from the West:

14 Seattle Grand Cru 5-11-0 L4
15 Phoenix Elves 5-11-0 L1
16 Carlona Krakens 2-14-0 L2

Any of the top 10 teams in BBB 15 East are 48 or higher on the match-up meter and would win handily against any of these teams.

I think everyone would be happier, both the lower USA A teams, and the better BBB teams, if we did some swaps. Honestly, this is going to be blowout city here. And not fun for the teams on either side of the blowouts.

Who's with me?

+1

Agreed

Agree generally; however the matchup bar isn't the true deciding factor. it's the strength of the builds and their ability to gameplan. Of course, their records show that those areas might be issues as well.

There's a couple of BBB 16 teams that would easiliy fit in here as well. Goshen, Tijuana, Sin City and Dutch Harbor.

I would be interested in exploring this for the Diablos. We are currently rebuilding and having a very hard time competing.

DrStrangelove:

Just PM any of these USA BBB 15 East teams and I'm sure they will do it:

Scranton
Gulf State
Miami
Houghton
Miami
Atlanta
Memphis

Then PM Support with Swap in the subject line.

Or from BBB 15 West,

Soux Falls
Uncle Sam's Misguided Children

Give this man an award. There are too many people playing this game who are more worried about what league they are in than they are about how competitive they can be. Nike outlined exactly what you need to do to help your chances of a competitive season DrStrangelove...best of luck getting it taken care of, and good luck to you guys next season.

Wow, how did Scranton not get moved up?

Scranton and Gulf State should have been promoted. The others are marginal.

not marginal compared to the other bottom half teams in A8.

That seems marginal to me.

I PMed dman7sjci about switching spots with the Buffalo Beasts, he said he wants to. The other owners either didn't get back to me, or didn't exactly say yes.

tell them that unless they are excited about 255-0 scores week after week...

Would be awesome to make the A8 the new BBB15. The gold ole days would be back.
