1 - San Francisco Webzoners ... strength of schedule here, SF's had a rough front 2 of their first 3 games and stayed undefeated, but it doesnt get any easier against Houston.

2 - LaCrosse RiverRats ... havent played the toughest teams yet but undefeated keeps you at the top.

3 - Fremont Warriors ... lots of talent here but they dont seem to have figured out how to put teams away that they should.

4 - Houston Toros ... possibly the strongest roster in the conference but still appear to have some kinks to work out. we'll see if they're at full speed against the leading 'Zoners (yes, i'm biased).

5 - Milwaukee Fire ... strong roster that's opened the season pretty well. i expect an easy win to keep their rank here.

6 - SOUTH GEORGIA GROWL ... the growl have really impressed me so far and i dont see any reason they'll slow down. they're strongest where it matters and can play with anybody.

7 - N'awlins Voodoo ... still waiting to see how these guys play against stronger competition but the numbers are in N'awlins favor on offense.

8 - Philadelphia Marauders II ... all of the talent appears to be there but the loss to Milwaukee has pushed philly towards a middle of the pack team. i expect that to change dramatically as the season goes on.

9 - Death Valley Devils ... the last of the 2-1 teams have played really well so far and dare i say above their heads. a tough game against the Growl will tell everyone where this team really stands.

10 - Appalachian Mountaineers ... playing very poorly to open the season and if things dont turn around very quickly the playoffs will be out of the picture.

11 - Philadelphia Fighters ... good talent, poor performance so far. hopefully a little frog power can bring these guys into a late playoff position.

12 - Farkistan Demons ... decent amount of talent here but i'm more than a bit concerned about how they're playing. Farkistan has a couple weaker games to figure things out but i dont think it's going to help.

13 - Chinese Bandits ... i'm not really sure what to say here, i see some talent but no enthusiasm or reason to believe they're going to compete for the playoffs.

14 - Flappin' Skunk Farmers ... well, you're all or mostly human.

15 - Bayou Bengals ... i cant put Odie last.

16 - Fort Sam Houston Rangers ... i'd like to put you guys higher because i went to SHSU, but i cant.

Deservedly ranked in the basement, but we are working on getting back in the game. Problem is no one wants to help a team that doesn't have championship written all over it, agents want one handed to their players. So, we are working on a longterm ressurection plan and intend to return this team to a competitive level, even if that means the inevitable return to the basement (BBB) and working our way backup.

partner in 7 seasons i have never myself signed a free agent for any team that i've represented (i AM the the worst recruiter ever). we signed 15+ high end players this season because of being fun and active on the forums and making friends ... the closest i've been is i signed one player this season because we had a mutual friend. we've got no trophies to speak of. i promise being active and fun in the forums with your guys will get your team noticed. you dont want to sign the guys that are only out for a guaranteed trophy, get your guys active and messing around in the forums ... make connections and you'll find guys that want to play for you.

Exactly why we have troubles. I want character people on our team and I am perhaps too picky. I refuse to sell out, and with a completed stadium and plenty of income that would be easy to do. LOL

As for the forums, I would love to be active on here, and perhaps with the "climate change" this season I may find it more worthwhile.

well, if you want character people avoid fletch at all possible ... you dont want to know what he's into (other than me) . no, you're not too picky IMO ... i've gotten lucky to own a team of good guys and adults and i'd accept nothing less.

i think a climate change is happening, it just takes folks participating. first place or last, having your guys enjoying the game makes all the difference. the remaining BBB3 guys can speak for that - both the frogs and USB are as good or better than most teams here and have built up by their reputation as fun to play for. i'd love to have a guy on either team nomatter what league they're in.

you seem like a great guy already and i can add Sam to the list, if i've got an available player, i'll send him your way.

Precisely why I brought skibo in. I'm just glad he agreed to help! Hopefully his crazy frog antics will juice up the Fighters a bit.

be careful what you wish for, i heard skibo likes to train his defenses to power lift and play in traffic.

We tried that training method, look at our roster and you will see how few of them finished their first training session on I-10. I told the conditioning coach rush hour was not a good time to try it~

lol you must be new to sam, you've gotta learn to navigate I-45 before ever attempting I-10 ... just be sure to hop under the limit in montgomery county.

You can do 80 on I-45 from 3083 to 1488. Speed limit only from 1488 to Anadarco Tower, then back up to 80.
There, I just told you where we set the traps.

Sweet. But I have never had a problem cruising at 80 going from the woodlands to dallas. I also have never thought twice about going 80 from greenspoint to the woodlands. I don't think I have ever seen anyone pulled over between the two.

The Shenandoah guys are jerks. They'll pull you over and write you for 5 over. Happened to me twice now.
