well only 6 games remain, and this league has gone quiet all the sudden, despite some super close races, so i think i'll stir the pot a little with some power rankings, and mostly because this might be the last chance to rank myself...
1. frosty - best league record by 2 games, best league point differential by 5 points. already hit my pre-season goal in league wins, 1 more win will put me over that goal. that's all i'll say about me.
2. flamengo - i'm sure most people would say this the scariest team in the league, and i'd agree. they dropped a surprising one to philly last game, but philly is very very good.
3. bucsblue - super high point differential, but this ranking is a bit wishy washy. it's possible some teams below are a bit more deserving.
4. philly - quickly moving up the rankings and taking down teams at will. the additions of santarelli and zarzecki are proving very positive moves, and fischer is a stud.
5. lambda - proving they are human and sometimes vulnerable, they slide down a few spots. they are still a very talented group, and still legitimate championship contenders.
6. baker - i was about to write them off, but then they beat lambda. they may be able to threaten bucsblue in the big 8.
7. nyc warhawks - maybe underrated at 7, still outside of playoff position, which is amazing considering their 11-5 record and +272 point differential. ranked a little lower because of a recent kinda sorta bad loss to snake river recently.
8. west side - moving up, they've been playing really well lately, winning 5 of their last 6. they have some really nice wins this season.
9. snake river - playing better lately. if they return to early season form, they might make bucsblue nervous if they keep it up.
10. warhawks - another team that looked good early in the season, and kind of fell apart mid-season. we'll see if they can get their game shape up and start winning again. they've lost 7 of their last 8.
11. strong arm - call me biased, but with a win over nyc, they make a good case. i like the way their team is put together. if they can take down west side next game, that would go a long way in solidifying themselves as relegation favorites.
12. walnut - management really is impressive on this team. tremol is a man-beast, and they have a couple supporting pieces. a couple additions to the team (and i mean, like, exactly 2) to help tremol, and this team would be legitimate contenders.
13. north carolina - this team is improving, and has improved. bringing in valmaseda was a very positive addition. if they win their relegation series, or better yet, finish 5th, they could be serious contenders next season.
14. glugly - afk
15. grand ma - gave up. r.i.p.
16. beastest - afk and terrible
