ALPHA

Alpha is more like the Omega in the hierarchy of this league in season 16. With eight teams lacking a full roster, and a borderline 9th, pretty much ensuring playoff games for teams with full rosters. A few potential upsets may upset the balance of the league, but rest assured. One of the top three in this list will be the Alpha of this mangy pack at the end of the season.

Rank....Team.....................Players.....Avg Level.....Avg Value.....Eff Level Salary
1.......Sons of Liberty..........52..........71............991.89........74 $17,058,080

The apparent lead team in OAA1 Alpha is the Son's of Liberty. Looking to take a page from the Senior Olympics, wheelchairs are in vogue with this group of oldsters. Many on the team are well into the second decline, some into the third. Though the penalties are balanced out by the fact that experience have likely given them more VA's then the rest of Alpha combined.

2.......Astoria Fightin' Titans..43...........59...........856.05........66 $12,199,200
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWaWvQuIVMI
The Titans, apparently not tired of AA are holdovers from last season in the league. They are poised to take the conference cept for the problem of team geriatric. The Titans have the benefit of letting some more wear and tear take effect on the Liberty team, not facing them till almost seasons end. Very likely a preview to the conference finals. Respect your elders? Not in this league.

3.......Wolffsen Pirates.........42...........54...........835.59.........62 $12,311,600
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1r_KUjRRxM&feature=related
The Pirates are looking to steal the gold from under the Liberty and Titans teams. Coming into OAA1 after some rough leagues, they are a tough lot ready to rumble. To bad for them they face the Liberty team at the seasons start before they start to wear down some. They will fight to the end, but its Davey Jones locker for them.

A Pirate walked into a bar with a paper towel on his head. Walking up to the bar he orders a pint of rum. The bartender can't take it anymore, and asks "Why do ye have a paper towel on yer noggin?"
The Pirate replied "Yarrrr, there be a Bounty on my head!"


4.......Yorkshire Rippers........54............47..........733.17..........51 $11,168,360
http://www.youtube.com/watch#!v=5_5er5P2ibg&feature=related
The Rippers ride into Oceania after a strong showing last season. However, this venture back into the deeper waters of AA and up is a relearning experience for them. Big wave surfing is not for the timid and they will venture forth bravely. And get crushed by the size of the surf. I see them getting a home game and not much else with the firepower of the teams above them. Quantity over quality is what keeps them from dropping down.

5........Monroeville Zombies......44...........45..........701.5...........48
$9,371,960
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVnfyradCPY
The Zombies come in hungry and looking for food...and find a relatively bare pantry. Likely competing for 4th with the Rippers, Knights and Monks, they will have some interesting games this season in the fight for the remaining playoff spot. But the mindless murderers simply lack the brawn to beat the top dogs.

6........Norfolk Island Knights...43...........46..........693.9............48
$8,432,680
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTQfGd3G6dg&feature=related The Knights who say GLB
The valiant K-ni-gits ride into OAA1 to attempt to cleanse it of its assorted lowlife denizens. From the dirty Pirates, Undead Zombies, and other evil citizens. Lacking holy hand grenades and blessed shrubbery, they will be competing for fourth place.

7........Tibetan Drunk Monks......49...........39..........637.1............41 $12,080,000
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oBCWNrcpxLk
Walking teh path all monks must walk in search of attaining World League peace, the Monks enter the season prepared for what comes. However, neither prayers nor the thin air and high walls of their monastaries will save them this season. Unlikely to be in the hunt for gold, they console themselves with platitudes and beer.

8........Port Arthur Hodags........31..........54...........839.9...........63
$8,939,520
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J_NrKQFhwig
The Hodags are a default playoff team this season. With some serious recruiting, they could be competitors, but without it, their cup dreams are as real as the teams namesake.

The Pretenders, sorry guys but its gonna be a long season.

Great writeup mate, am Amazed to find us in the top 8 although looking at the lack of rosters I now understand why. I wouldn't expect to beat a single team above us but we won't go down without a fight and putting the hurt on a pissed up monk is never easy

I'm a little late to the party, but nice work. I'm disappointed in the lack of full rosters up here, but it should be a fun season nonetheless.
