It's the start of a new season, and everybody knows what that means!
It's time for the ever so trivial, but always convivial, PRESEASON RANKINGS!
Great 8
1. Philadelphia Phantasm: Don't let his name fool you. There is no virtue here. He will not only kick you when you are down, but will also erase your recordings on your DVR and dent all your canned goods. These ghostly fellows are hoping to disappear from DIII.4 sooner rather than later.
2. Running Red Wolves: To buy or not to buy that is the question. With the 7th pick in the draft, he raked in a a cool 2.7 million. They say money is power, and Packpower is now packing... power.
3. Deadwood Gunslingers: Have you seen this guys arena? Well if you do go see it, make sure you plan the whole day, because it will take you that long to tour the Saloon.
4. Flashover: After losing it all at the betting tables of last season, GForce was scared for his life to return back with same name. So he changed it. Some say the new name has meaning. Here are some theories: It represents his hopes and dreams of promoting last year, but in a flash it was all over; It represents his team getting to the semifinals for 3 year in a row, an thus having flashbacks, which he would like to put an end to this year; It represents the fact that he is a super villian and would like to end Flash Gordon's life.
5. Michigan Blasters: He loves to talk about the draft, but not much else is known. Just like his team. Its a wild card.
6. Gremlins: Nobody has more dedication to game recaps than Gizmo. He single-handedly kept the IV.53 forums alive for many seasons, but now he is ours!
7. Gimme The Hot Sauce : You heard the man (literally his name is TheMan... well with a 10 on the end) if you have the hot sauce hand it over. He likes things spicy like a Taco Bell taco, and like the taco bell taco, he is hoping to run right through you.
8. Royal Challengers: Will this be another tanking season for the kingly Conquistadors? Usually having your top five players up for sale is a good indicator of that to be true. sparrow must be planning another season of flying low. Does this having anything to do with Packpower's big payday?
Big 8
1. Barbarian Marauders: Nobody loves silver more than Ramquizibo. His trophy case is full of them. His drawers are full of them... Oh wait that's silverware those aren't trophies. Nevermind
2. Hansen: He runs a solid team. It looks like he didn't train Usman Adaba last year which is frustrating. What a waste. just ask Packpower how useful good rookies can be. Go ahead, ask him...
3. LBC Soldiers: With Gary Haydock gone, his team will rely on a new player, Khadim Sarr and Gregory Snowden. Can They keep the ship sailing, or is there stormy weather ahead.
4. Bunny Humpers: Although this team is known for going out into the woods and molesting woodland creatures, it is also a noticeable fact that they can actually play basketball. Its also been rumored that Cliff Pringle has a chip on his shoulder.
5. BuckNuts: I think I crossed the line enough with the Bunny Humpers, I would hate to know what these guys do.
6. Tachenko: In case you didn't notice from the bold in the team's history post, kokka's been in this league for 16 seasons. He has seen alot of teams come and go, but he never has. Now that is dedication.
7. az warriors: The only promotee to not talk on the forums is putting a larger target on his head for doing so.
8. PuffPuffPass: Like a cloud of smoke this team is likely to be gone, his small arena will be his undoing.
