1. Emmaus Fighting Green Hornets 9-0
Average Rank: 1.0

This Week: Misctanbul Crusaders W 255-0
Next Week: Krakow Montain Lions 1-8

jbleich - Stutt and Stewart is all they care about at this point.
Hikariu - Hard team to scout. Dropping scrims though. Maybe on purpose, some sort of diversion tactic I think.
vournsdsu - King
kswass - Still king of the hill until someone knocks them off
archstanton - Lost a close one to Porto Alegro Recently. Has their conference on such lockdown, we're gotta comment on scrimms.
dlux67 - Top Dawg until someone is able to hump them into submission
sturge - yeah they're good

2. Stuttgart Blitzkrieg 8-1
Average Rank: 2.2

This Week: Alexandrovsk Conquerors W 80-12
Next Week: Ufa Panthers 1-8

jbleich - Warriors loss appears to have been just a hickup now..
Hikariu - ZJ is EE's Dooley. Power inside run game is back.
vournsdsu - On a nice 3 game winning streak and has a few extra days to scout Emmaus.
kswass - Start working on game plan for E-mouse now.
archstanton - Looking at several quality matchups for the latter third of schedule, starting with the biggest of them all in week 12.
dlux67 - Solid win today - big match-up is looming
sturge - if only Emmaus was in another league...

3. Minsk Ninjas 7-2
Average Rank: 3.3

This Week: Warsaw Warriors W 33-13
Next Week: Sofia Spiders 6-3

jbleich - Bounced back with a win over a good Warsaw team.
Hikariu - Minsk - Solidifying a top 2 post with solid win over WW.
vournsdsu - Solid bounce back win against the Warriors.
kswass - Solid win over a tough Warriors team. Next 2 games will tell a lot about this team.
archstanton - Scored a crucial victory to maintain top seeding, but still not sold on a top-3 finish. Next few weeks will reveal that.
dlux67 - Handled the Warriors today, big 2 week stretch will go a long way in determining final seeding
sturge - The Dallas loss today puts them here.

4. Arkadak Arsenal 7-2
Average Rank: 3.8

This Week: Ufa Panthers 241-0
Next Week: Krakow Gutter Runners 3-6

jbleich - I do beleive they belong up here, but will have to prove me right vs. Emmaus in 2 games
Hikariu - Still overrated? lol Only 241 on UFA, come on.
vournsdsu - Great offense
kswass - I am wondering how many pts this great offense will put up on the Hornets.
archstanton - The real deal, IMO. Highly difficult to stop if you cannot trade punches with this dynamic offense.
dlux67 - Needs to figure out a way to get that damn punt returner off the field so the offense can have a few drives
sturge - Waiting to hit the brutal part of their schedule in two games.

5. Warsaw Wrath 6-3
Average Rank: 5.5

This Week: Vladivostok Voodoo W 54-38
Next Week: Warsaw Worriors 5-4

jbleich - Voodoo is getting tougher, nice win here for Wrath, Can they hold onto the home playoff spot as top 3 look solid
Hikariu - Beat Voodoo like they should, move along.
vournsdsu - Will find out if they belong in the upper or bottom playoff tier this week.
kswass - Last season got rolled by rivals from Warsaw. Big test vs Vic and the boys coming up. Time to prove it.
archstanton - A must-win is needed to determine if the Wrath belong in the top echelon of the conference. Hard to ignore the beatdown that the Warriors handed the Wrath last season.
dlux67 - Solid win over Voodoo. Big game coming up against the 'other' Warsaw
sturge - Beating who they should

6. Buda Pests 6-3
Average Rank: 5.9

This Week: Cape Town Cubicles W 90-10
Next Week: Dallas Smoke Stacks 5-4

jbleich - I think they have got the ship righted.....Blowout win vs a decent Cubicles team.
Hikariu - Routed cape but who doesn't? Great owner playing hard arse scrimmage teams. Should have a home playoff game with more AI changes.
vournsdsu - I would want to avoid these guys in the playoffs.
kswass - After couple early losses, playing solid. Big test vs up and down Dallas
archstanton - Nice job putting it back together, but have they beat anybody of elite merit yet? Survey SAYS: Not really.
dlux67 - Looking good as of late. Not a team I would want to face in the second half of the season.
sturge - Nice beatdown on Cape Town

7. Sofia Spiders
Average Rank: 7.2

This Week: Dallas Smoke Stacks W 51-26
Next Week:Minsk Ninjas 7-2

jbleich - Huge victory for them over stacks....may have clinched a playoff spot....now can they get into the 5-6 range, Minsk game will tell a lot
Hikariu - Up Up Up with a HUGE win.
vournsdsu - Gaining momentum at the right time.
kswass - Very convincing W over Dallas, has a few tough games coming up. After next 3 games could be 4th seed or 9th.
archstanton - Such a crucial victory today for the Spiders. Don't write them off just yet, but they also have some work ahead of them.
dlux67 - Big win over the Smoke Stacks today. Tough slate of games to end the season will determine their playoff fate
sturge - Big win for playoff hopes as they hit a brutal stretch in the schedule.

8. Dallas Smoke Stacks 5-4
Average Rank: 7.9

This Week: Sofia Spiders L 51-26
Next Week: Buda Pests 6-3

jbleich - got dominated in the second half vs Sofia....playoff picture starting to get a bit fuzzy...
Hikariu - YIKES> Dropping posts after the spiders handled them. So up an down this Dallas team is.
vournsdsu - Needs consistency being bipolar won’t get you far in the playoffs.
kswass - Looks like they can beat or lose to just about anyone. Which team will show up vs the Pests?
archstanton - Ranging from stellar to shitty, maybe Dallas just doesn't care about winning or losing? They need to check their collective heads.
dlux67 - Someone get these guys a Xanax prescription. This team has more mood swings than my crazy ex-girlfriend. Which team will the Pests get?
sturge - Jeckyl and Hyde. The Buda game is a must win for these guys.

9. Warsaw Warriors 5-4
Average Rank: 8.4

This Week: Minsk Ninjas L 33-13
Next Week: Warsaw Wrath 6-3

jbleich - They too are starting to see their playoff picture fade as Dallas owns the tiebreaker
Hikariu - Dropped one to a quality squad, no shame there. Playoffs? Not sure yet.
vournsdsu - Victim of some pissed off Ninjas.
kswass - Impressive in scrimmages and has soft schedule coming up. Big game vs Wrath up next.
archstanton - After the Wrath, the Warriors have a very manageable slate. Probably not a must win, but they'd love to make it two-straight.
dlux67 - Ends the season with the 'softer' part of the schedule. Big game against Wrath to determine Warsaw dominance.
sturge - Good team but not getting the breaks.

10. Vladivostok Voodoo 3-6
Average Rank: 10.2

This Week: Warsaw Wrath L 54-38
Next Week: Alexandrovsk Conquerors 2-7

jbleich - I'm giving them the nod at the 10 spot over Cape town because they seem to be on the rise and cape the other way...
Hikariu - Has the first year in pro bug.
vournsdsu - They’re just not playing well.
kswass - Doesn't look like playoffs are going to happen this season. Needs to win next 3 before the bugs game.
archstanton - Expect a high-scoring affair when QBs Marino and Wing n' Darts clash head to head.
dlux67 - Doesn't look as though the playoffs are in the cards. Could play spoiler at the end of the season.
sturge - Will need to get it together for next season.

11. Cape Town Cubicles 4-5
Average Rank: 10.9

This Week: Buda Pests L 90-10
Next Week: Misctanbul Crusaders 0-9

jbleich - Losing streak will stop next game, but they got thumped by buda
Hikariu - Has the first year in pro bug.
vournsdsu - At least they beat Dallas.
kswass - Couple cupcakes coming up before brutal end of season schedule.
archstanton - Sure, they beat Dallas, but these days, UFA beating Dallas wouldn't raise too many eyebrows. Rough games ahead though.
dlux67 - Take some time during these next two games to do some pre-scouting for your final 5.
sturge - The Dallas game is all they got to hang their hat on.

12. Alexandrovsk Conquerors 2-7
Average Rank: 12.0

This Week: Stuttgart Blitzkrieg L 80-12
Next Week: Vladivostok Voodoo 3-6

jbleich - They get the nod over the gutter runners as they have played close games vs. the top teams...
Hikariu - Has the first year in pro bug.
vournsdsu - So close yet so far. Has to be frustrating for these guys but we’ll see their character if they stick around.
kswass - Not far away from moving into playoff contention as far as Competitiveness. Could surprise some teams if they take them lightly.
archstanton - QB Darts is quietly compiling a legit top-3 mvp finish. Too bad the rest of his team can't defend its way out of a wet paper bag.
dlux67 - Consistently playing teams tough, may be a spoiler for bubble teams in final stretch run
sturge - Will be watching how they do against the Voodoo
