Okay here are the rankings after game 13.
Here is what I went by:
1) Record or win/loss
2) Strength of roster

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.

LW = Last Weeks ranking
* = Secured a play off spot

*#1 Pretoria Pigs (13-0) LW 1 - Well the Porkers will be #1 in the play off rankings. Put it in cruise control because no one in Lion can catch you.

*#2 Texas Armadillos (11-2) LW 3 - Taking the #2 spot for now are the Armadillos. A huge play off rankings show down is next with Taipei.

*#3 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (11-2) LW 4 - 11 wins and counting for this team makes them one of the surprising A teams this season. Taking on #2 Texas is next with play off rankings at stake.

*#4 The African Predators (10-3) LW 5 - Predators prove they are for real after destroying Banghazi last game. Lagos is up next.

*#5 Banghazi Barbary Lions (10-3) LW 2 - Two losses in a row for the Barbary Lions and it won't get any easier with Strong Badia up next.

*#6 Impending Doom (9-4) LW 6 - The Doom are cruising to the play offs and still have a chance to jump up in the rankings with a lot of play off bound teams battling each other late in the season.

*#7 Strong Badia Tires (8-5) LW 8 - Eight straight wins now for the Tires. What a great comeback! The sliding Barbary Lions are up next in a rankings duel.

*#8 Detroit Drive-By (8-5) LW 7 - Detroit is play off bound, but will have to fight in every game left to climb any higher in the rankings.

#9 Zimbabwe Bulls (5-8) LW 9 - The Bulls get a chance to play spoiler to the Doom in the upcoming game.

#10 Nigerian Nightmares (4-9) LW 10 - Nightmares get a chance at a 5th win against the Desert Foxes up next. Show that A 7 pride Nigeria.

#11 Algeria Desert Foxes (4-9) LW 11 - Algeria can climb on top of the bottom feeders with a win against the Nightmares up next.

#12 Lagos Eagles (4-9) LW 12 - I don't think Lagos will be moving up anytime soon, if at all, for the rest of the season. Not with the Predators and the Tires up next.

#13 Zulu Brotherhood (3-10) LW 13 - Zulu still on holiday, this time against Djibouti. Win 4 coming up.

#14 Rwanda HellFish (2-11) LW14 - No comment needed here. How about a trivia question. Who can name all the defensive players to win a Super Bowl MVP? No cheating, Santa is watching you.

#15 Zanzibar Face-Eaters (0-13) LW 15 - Zanzibar won't be feasting on faces this time. Hellfish is the special of the day for next games menu. Try it with a twist of lemon, Fish Eaters. Mmmmmmmm, yummy.

#16 Djibouti White Tigers (0-13) LW 16 - Want another trivia question? In honor of OJ "I didn't know what I did was wrong" Simpson going to jail (not so hot with out the Dream Team, eh Juice?), who can name all the 2000 yard rushers since the merger? And again, Santa's watching you. You guys are all on your honor.
Ah-hah! I see you googling Rhuin! Get those fingers off the keyboard!

*****PREDICTIONS*****
I'm doing a lot better than I thought I would on these predictions this season.
Not doing too good on the GOTW though.

Week 4: 5-3, Week 5: 7-1, Week 6: 6-2, Week 7: 7-1, Week 8: 6-2, Week 9: 6-2, Week 10: 7-1, Week 11: 6-2, Week 12: 7-1, Week 13: 8-0

Week 14:
Week 15:
Week 16:

Overall: 65-15
GOTW: 4-6

#14 Rwanda HellFish (2-11) at #15 Zanzibar Face-Eaters (0-13) = Zanzibar - Ahhh, a nice meal of Hellfish and maybe some dancing later? Nice evening you have planned Zanzibar.
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers

#16 Djibouti White Tigers (0-13) at #13 Zulu Brotherhood (3-10) = Zulu - Zulu is spending the day at the petting zoo with some White Tigers. Nice tiger, pretty tiger.
Game Rating: 1/6 Beers

#10 Nigerian Nightmares (4-9) at #11 Algeria Desert Foxes (4-9) = Nightmares - Who will climb on top of the bottom feeders? It's a battle to the death!..........well, maybe not that extreme, but it will be a battle.
Game Rating: 5/6 Beers

#9 Zimbabwe Bulls (5-8) at #6 Impending Doom (9-4) = Doom - Next games headlines will read something like this:
"Impending Doom Caught In Cattle Mutilation Scandal!".
Game Rating: 3/6 Beers

#12 Lagos Eagles (4-9) at #4 The African Predators (10-3) = Predators - Eagles will be more like clay pigeons against the Predators..............aaaaaaaand, PULL!!!
Game Rating: 3/6 Beers

#3 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (11-2) at #2 Texas Armadillos (11-2) = Texas - Finally a big game not involving my Barbary Lions, too much pressure.
Yep you guessed it...............IT'S THUNDERDOME BITCHES!!!!!! Two teams enter, one team leaves!!
Game Rating: 6/6 Beers

#5 Banghazi Barbary Lions (10-3) at #7 Strong Badia Tires (8-5) = Strong Badia - Looks like the Tires have fixed their problems from the beginning of the season and Banghazi is having too many of their own. Taking the Tires.
Game Rating: 6/6 Beers

#8 Detroit Drive-By (8-5) at #1 Pretoria Pigs (13-0) = Pretoria - Detroit needs the win to try and move up in the play off rankings. Take the Pigs.
Game Rating: 5/6 Beers

*GOTW*
#3 Taipei Little Fish Rangers (11-2) at #2 Texas Armadillos (11-2) - Here we go! #2 vs #3! GLB at it's best with play off implications!

This Week's Overall Beer Rating:
30/48 beers - We will get sloshed to-night! Great set of match ups this time! Three really great games to keep your eye on!
I have a GLB boner right now!.......................was that too much info?

Good luck to all the teams in Lion Conference! !

I meant beat.

Algeria can BEAT Nigeria.

I've been drinking too much. Or too little. I forget how it goes. What I mean is, I haven't had the right amount.

You're from the midwest. In our case: You haven't had enough.

Nice choice Charles!

It will be a close one for sure, at least i hope so. I gotta pull for Toneboogie though. He's a really good owner and they are Banghazi's rivals from Africa A 7, so i gotta pull for them.
But GL to both teams.
