Having just promoted from this divison, Here my preview list for the top 3 teams from this division.

Dunnville Mudcats * POP candiadate *
Hoosiers09
Yukon Golddiggers

Going to come down to the head to head conference match up between Dunnville & Hoosiers either team could POP.

The SSS is definitley promoting this year... putting you on notice for a clean sweep season! The most Canadian team in the game!

Clean sweep? Good luck with that :P

heres hoping to a great season

i have a 278k roster, which should be more than enough to get the top 2 spot in my league

The total salary is only a minor piece of the puzzle my friend.

Peace and good luck this season. Hope you promote.

Here are some facts and figures I've collected about division III this season. I was interested in finding out which league was the most competitive league in division III. So I added up the CR and divided by the number of teams, took to top four and divided by four and then measured the distance between the top four and the rest of the league by subtracting the average of the top four from the average of the league. The average margin of error is high, but here are the things I've come up with.
League. Ranking Average Top 4. Ranking Average - Top 4 Total

4. 186.06. 80.5. 105.56. 372.12
12 187.81. 105. 82.81. 375.62
9. 191.88. 93. 98.88. 383.76
10. 199.18. 114.5. 84.68. 398.36
15. 199.81. 89. 110.81. 399.62
7. 200.13. 88.25. 111.88. 400.26
5. 201.25. 101.5. 99.75. 402.25
11. 202. 93. 109. 404

14. 237.67. 137.25. 100.42. 475.34

6. 254.69. 147.75. 106.94. 508.94

Now, I know that rankings don't always tell the whole story, but here are some numbers

Wow! Awesome! Thats cool to see! Nice work!

III.4 is boosted a little by (33436) and (24869), but still great job!

DIVISION III.1

Now that Team Dragon has dragged their perfection to a higher level
following a 22-0 season and perfect playoffs, III.1 is wide open...However.
The problems in the Big 8 continue....Too much of a good thing.

The Toronto Knockouts will take over for the Dragon in the great 8 and don't appear to have a rival at the moment, much as was the case for the Dragon is season 18.
The Knockouts are hoping to not only find a way back into Div II but the recipe to stay after twice falling back now.

But the Big 8 conference remains a tough, battle to the end 4 team race.
Last seasons standings:
1 4 Point Play 18 4 +601
2 Richmond Pork Chops 18 4 +592
3 Jordans Jets 17 5 +663
4 Quantum LeVeRaGe 13 9 +160

There are Div III leagues where none of these teams would place 1st or 2nd
but you just have to beat your competitors, so here we go.
The Big Blue returning champs, the 4 Point Players, along with Pork Chops have the best balanced attacks.
The Jordan Jets have gone through their, shoot, we didn't win fire sale, and can retool at anytime, but are currently in a weakened state.
Quantum LeVeRage are going to try and ride the conference's best player and reigning MVP Lluís Picó who sports a ginormous $149,113 salary, however there doesn't appear enough left over for a run at the big 3.

DIVISION III.2

The Montreal Aces have dropped down from Div II and landed rather softly in the right conference in the right division.
Led by the 25 year old backcourt combo of Otcan Erek and Baptiste Sauvat, the Aces hold significant favoured status in the Big 8.
With a decent investment however the deadlynoobs could force a challenge.

The Great 8 has the Binopolis Celtics back after a bitter playoff disapointment.
Off a 20-2 regular season they fell in the conference final.
Led by Canadian PG Jaime Hammond the Celtics are balanced and well stocked for another run and fueled by the playoff ouster.

The Spazs Ballers produced the upset that took out the Celtics are will try and ride MVP candidate SG Omar Baston, but are weak beyond their top 3 starters.
Son Dambi is the best of the rest in the Great 8 but with much work to do to catch the big 2
