BADGER'S WORLD - SEASON 40
Simple rule - mess with the bull you'll get the horns.
We may as well get some chit going for season 40 early to keep the momentum going throughout the season. There was some chatter about a possible preseason tourney and if someone has the time to set it up
OUT WITH THE OLD AND IN WITH THE NEW
Teams That Left RIP
EAST
South End Cowboys
Shoreline Big Gulp Kickers
Blood Pack Mercenaries
Huntsville Hellhounds
Manhattan Midnight Warriors
WEST
Brethren Krewe - Still in but have requested a change.
Medford Ducks
Coastal Marauders
Off In The Shower
New Town Paddlers
New Teams Joining
EAST
Grave Diggers Union
DotBall Warriors
London Fletchers
Legacy's Casual Pride
Royal Drunken Monkey Spankers
WEST
High Seas Marauders
San Dimas Saints
Macon Mo Bacon
Prussian Revolution
Washington Wildcats - waiting on official swap with the Krewe.
For all the new teams/owners/agents "welcome." You don't have a real high standard coming in as only three of the new teams from last seasons group made the playoffs (in the west and that's we you'll often read "LOL WEST" in the forums. However, one of the new teams made it to the finals before losing as the five seed in the west. With my welcome out of the way don't be shy about contributing to the league and staying abreast of our happenings as there may be a "little" trash talk among the veterans in the league. You may just want to stay out of that sort of conversation but if you must hit that post button don't expect marsh mellow and rainbow responses. They should classify Casual Pro as a mature league (or immature depending how you look at it)

Sorry new teams, you have not been included in the above, I don't care how many 255-0's you put up in RP as your in a whole new world up here with the big boys/girls.
*Denotes season 39 casual pro playoff team.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
DOTS TO WATCH
1. QB Bier Market, Bier Markt - This gunslinger is coming off his fourth straight offensive MVP performance and after a playoff meltdown is looking to atone for sins of the past. I suspect someone will say "bias" - kiss the championships (two) and MVP (four) rings.
2. RB Lil Fast, Detroit Muscle - Fast is the fourth leading rusher but the dot plays on the championship team so gets bumped up a bit. Chuck in the fact he's the returning TD leader at 35 boosts the dot up as well.
3. QB Ben Gorman (QB), Manchester United - Gorman had lead the league in rushing three out of the last four seasons and was only nipped this past season by his fellow teammate (Carlton Lugo (QB)). With another successful season Gorman may leave casual pro as the all-time leading rusher.
4. DE Charles Main, Detroit Muscle. Main is the main sack leader returning to the Muscles vaunted defense. Main racked up 27 sacks last season and also racked up 36 tackles and 24 hurries on the season and will once again be a force to be reckened with.
5. RB Oscar Goldman, Moscow Musketeers. Goldman is the top returning RB yardage wise as the back rushed for 2,252 yards while scoring 23 rushing TD's. Goldman is the solid foundation to the Musketeer O who'll be looking to improve on the initial season.

I'll get some more out as teams get boosted, scrimmages for S40 take off, and get my predictions in. Going to take a few days off from GLB...reap it.
