Looking forward to a new season. Should be interesting, good luck to everyone.

It's the start of a new season, and along with the anxiety of your first game comes the Preseason Rankings

Now all 16 teams were analyzed to some degree, but keep in mind that I can't see whats going on with your team personally or really go in depth. So without further ado here is the:

PRESEASON RANKINGS

Great 8
1. Astral Weeks: Not to be confused with astral weaks because this strong team is ready to make another run at going back to D.II.

2. Royal Challengers: Could this be the when the Challengers prove their royalty by being crowned champions?

3. Bobcats4Life: Hopefully "Bobcats4Llife" isn't short for "BobcatsD.III.4Life", because that title should belong to Tachenko.

4. Michigan Blasters: Despite not making the playoffs last season, his roster is solid. They won't blow you out of the water, but will always give you a run for your money. Hide your wallets.

5. Pope and Cardinals: They are here to prove they are more then just guys in funny hats. They're ballers.

6. Wadsworth Grizzlies: Giaurowski is monster, but until he gets some help he'll remain under the bed.

7. Haywood Lumberjacks: After promoting with only one season in IV, will they be able to trample the forest of D.III or will there hopes be cut down. Sources say that NetteB is known to log on a lot.

8. Two Os in Goose: Their may be Two O's is goose, but there is 3 O's in promotion. Here's hoping he can find his extra O soon.

Big 8
1. Tachenko: Postal's departure leaves the big 8 Open to his D III.4's 13 year veteran, but will he keep his promise to the fans to produce a mediocre season?

2. Barbarian Marauders: After proving that the other Marauders were misfits, who will these Barbarians seek to pillage next?

3. Hansen: Survived his rookie year in D.III and is thirsty for more.

4. Rogues: They lack some depth, but this group of bandits could end up stealing the show.

5. San Jose Sharks: These sharks have some D.II in their blood. The question is: "Is it in the water?"

6. San Diego Eagles: The Eagles managed an undefeated regular season in D.IV, but with they continue to soar?

7. BuckNuts: I will try to avoid any unnecessary puns here.

8. Big City Enforcers: Big City, welcome to the big leagues. You aren't in Kansas anymore.

thanks. i will take your ranking as a motivation.

The Pope and Cardinals write-up takes the cake.

Nice work.

Brilliant write up! The problem with my team is Giaurowski may be a monster, but so is his paycheck! Even with barely any help, I'm still losing money weekly. I'm pretty much just accepting demotion at this point.

Two division favorites lose a game early with astral weeks losing to Michigan Blasters in game 1 and Tachenko losing a one that came down to the wire against BuckNuts.

Yeah I actually asked him the same question hahaha... but he said he was trying to win it all and promote after a few years of trying to build a player for the USA national team
