USA Pro is hands down the toughest league the Gamblers have been in. First time we've missed the playoffs. Of course that's only natural (that it's the best) since it contains all the best teams that have progressed from the lower leagues. I think we improved as the season went on (hell we beat the Bullets and they're in the championship game) but we still have some work to do before we can be considered a legitimate team in USA Pro.

I've always maintained that the USA AAA leagues were two of the Top 10 leagues in GLB, but post-realignment USA Pro is the toughest league from top to bottom. We had twice as many regular season losses in our first year as we did in 2 years at AAA.
I do remember AAA2 massacring SA AAA in Season 5 though. WPL 4 LYFE!

I definitely expect an EXTREMELY tough league...
OTR is just happy to be here after being stuck in BBB 1 from seasons 2-5.

As the head of the WPL I agree.

Just wanted to say Dallas Vaqueros were originally a USA AA Team, and yes the pros have been the toughest league we have been in. But in fairness we did lose some people from AAA to Pro

I don't think this would surprise anyone. SA AAA isn't very good

HHW would have won season 5 and 6 if it weren't for those freaking monkeys.
Bottom line to the new teams: You all are probably used to winning and dominating. Get used to fighting for your lives to get into the playoffs.

Continue fighting for your life if you make the playoffs since every team in the playoffs is going to be downright nasty next season.

It's good to see some love for the USA AAA leagues, and AAA2 in particular. I played for and gmed the San Francisco Montanas for 6 seasons in AAA2 and I can vouch for the quality of the teams that came through there. Most of our losses were to teams that eventually made it to usa pro, and once I joined the pirates up here, I saw a lot of familiar faces (ofg, rebel yell, shockers, maulers, nighthawks etc).
I'm pretty certain that the usa aaa leagues were some of the best leagues in the game for awhile, but never got as much love because it didn't say "pro" in the league name.
Also evident is the fact that when many of the usa AAA teams decided to call it quits, a lot of their players ended up in usa pro, which is a true testament to the talent in both leagues.
Hopefully I can find a usa pro team for my cb so that I can continue to compete with the best

I look forward to the Hedgehogs scratching a clawing for every win next season. This is a hell of a great league to be in.

BSB isn't exactly an original Pro League team but sure why not. We never got promoted into this league, we did start in it but it was in Season 2 I believe that CTap took ownership.

The OP was tl;dr, but I'm pretty sure I know what it was about. OTR Red Dots will make Pro look easy. I will single-handedly kick the ass of anyone who disagrees with me.

I don't think anybody is going to take this league lightly I have tons of respect for most of the owners here

Season 3 actually
. You don't want to claim that record from season 2.

Duff, Rebel Yell and OFG were original A league members as they moved up to AAA #2(the original AA) once Bort decided t expand to the pyramid structure for the leagues.
