Okay here are the rankings after game 12.
Here is what I went by:
1) Record or win/loss
2) Strength of roster
LW = Last Weeks ranking
You may or may not agree with them, but this is how I see them.
****POWER RANKINGS****
Well our Post Season teams look to be set, it's just a matter of rankings now. Congrats to those that made the dance.
* = Secured a play off spot
*#1 Pretoria Pigs (12-0) LW 1 - Well it's taken 3 long seasons, but it looks like the Pigs will finally be getting their chance to move up this season. They play Lagos next and then 3 tough games to close out the regular season.
*#2 Banghazi Barbary Lions (10-2) LW 2 - Led by a well balanced offense and a stingy defense, I think Banghazi was one of the big surprises of the season, especially to me.
*#3 Texas Armadillos (10-2) LW 3 - The Armadillo's D has kept them in the play off run all season long. DE Mack Tally with 18 sacks and CB Dax Emerald with 7 INT's lead the stingy defensive unit.
*#4 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (10-2) LW 4 - Taipei won their first 9 games that gave them a great shot of making the play offs. Led by a ground game that has amassed 5000+ yards on the ground and DE Sagara Sousuke on defense with 23 sacks. They will give anyone a run for the money.
*#5 The African Predators (9-3) LW 5 - The Predators still have 3 tough games to play and could be jockeying for play off position should they lose any. A star studded team on both sides of the ball. Led on offense by 3 HB's in Bo. Jackson, Herschel. Walker and Gale. Sayers on the ground. And my all time fav QB John. Elway (I'm a huge Broncos fan) thru the air. Their D is led by Richard . Dent with 33 sacks and CB Herb. Adderley, these guys are tough to beat no matter who you are.
*#6 Impending Doom (8-4) LW 7 - Their defense led them to the #6 spot in the play offs. Led by CB Crippled Breakdancer with 7 INT's, FS Jack Danning with 5 INT's and DE Depressed Emoboy with 43 Sacks. The last four games could have the Doom ending up with 12 wins.
*#7 Detroit Drive-By (8-4) LW 6 - Detroit has been led by lvl 40 HB DS Davis on offense. With four very tough games left the Drive-By could be #8 after it is all said and done.
*#8 Strong Badia Tires (7-5) LW 8 - Our last play off team at #8. Headed by HB's Chris Triplett and Rocco Morano on offense and CB Super Krushmaster on defense. They seem to have gotten their stuff together now with seven straight wins to lead them into the play offs.
#9 Zimbabwe Bulls (4-8) LW 10 - It's all for pride now, Bulls. At least now you can get a head start on recruiting.
#10 Nigerian Nightmares (4-8) LW 12 - Nightmares jump up 2 spots with a win over Zanzibar. Still a couple winnable games left on the schedule. Keep on fighting, Nightmares.
#11 Algeria Desert Foxes (4-8) LW 9 - If the Desert Foxes changed their name to the Megan Fox's, more people might be interested.

#12 Lagos Eagles (4-8) LW 11 - Want some advice from a guy that just got his ass kicked by the #1 Pigs, Lagos?..............RUN!!
#13 Zulu Brotherhood (2-10) LW 13 - The Brotherhood go to work on their tans on a much needed 2 game vacation. You will at least be 4-10 when you get back. Try and avoid the STD's while on vacay, Zulu's.
#14 Rwanda HellFish (2-10) LW14 - Some Christmas Carols: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u2ih86J3Czw
#15 Zanzibar Face-Eaters (0-12) LW 15 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hb2YSAVHmIE
#16 Djibouti White Tigers (0-12) LW 16 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jEnTSQStGE
