Warrior General Games

So right now the Las Vegas Gamblers are locks in the west and Miami Stingers are locks in the east, but what about the other two teams to go down?

East
Milwaukee Cougars or Miami Bulldogs
Prediction: Neither team wins it's last two games and the Cougars go down

West
Minnesota Marauders or Texas Thunder
Prediction: Marauders get lucky by having to play the Bulldogs in the last game of the season. They stay and the Thunder move down.

Thoughts?

Milwaukee Cougars- prett much the same as your reason Serenity

Texas Thunder- Texas loses a close game to the Sabercats and Marauders beat the Bulldogs to stay in USA Pro

Good picks Serenity

doesnt detroit technically have a very small chance to be relegated as well?

yes they do...

Maurauders are safe unless the Thunder win against both the Extreme and the Sabrecats.


If the Thunder beat the Sabrecats and Detroit Revolvers lose both of their games (which is likely), then Detroit goes down.

Thunder has a decent chance to beat Sacramento.

Least the East will still have Bulldogs, Sabercats, and Blackjack to beat up on next year. System is flawed I tell you!

Hopefully the Bulldogs, Sabrecats and Blackjack get new owners or at least turn things around. Plus the new call ups from AAA. Should be a full league.

Problem will be the mid-season give upers.

The Problem the Bulldogs are having is not many high level players want to play for a 2-12 Pro League team. It's just not an easy sell. It's taking a lot more time than I anticipated, that's an understatement.
We'll continue to try our best, hopefully sometime soon, we'll become somewhat competetive again.

i think they should consider sending 4 down at least. it's a shame to have so many horrible teams in what is supposed to be the "elite" level.

or three in the east and one in the west

It's really difficult to be an underdog in this league. The talent gap is huge. If underdogs want to upgrade, the team chemistry sinks like crazy.
Everything here is to encourage middle season give upers. Nobody wants to be f**ked again and again without any hope to recover, right?
If we have more than four give upers every season, this league will be worse and worse.
How many do we have this season?

Second.

The Atlantic City Blackjack have a new owner terps85. He has hired an OC DC ST coach and some scouts. We are at the very least TRYING.

Yes we are greatly out-manned, yet we are doing our best. The roster is filling up slowly, albeit with low levels. Figured we had to start somewhere.

I'm just glad we aren't down for relegation and hope to not face it at the end of Season 3.

If they do that once, theres gonna be people in every league complaining about how they dont deserve to be demoted since things were changed in USA Pro. I really think that "solution" will cause a lot more problems than it will solve. I'm hoping new owners can turn the bottom feeder teams around...considering how many people wanted to play in the US, shouldn't a ton of people want to play in the top league in the US?

Yes and no.

Yes, lots of people want to play in USA pro.

No, few wants to play in a hopeless USA pro team.

It's extremely difficult to build a competitive team from scratch in USA pro, unless you and your buddies move the whole roster from other teams (e.g. NYU).
Generally speaking, I don't think new ownership is a solution for gutted teams in this league.

Maybe we should allow gutted teams to demote to lower league automatically, and get more top teams from AAA instead.
