After researching the CPU and slow build/and or rebuilds in the League tree ahead of us, I count:
East - at least 4 USA Pro, 5 USA AAA2, 4 USA AA3 (including my beloved Virginia Wolverines ), 2 A6 teams

West - at least 2 USA Pro, 5 USA AAA2, 4 USA AA3, 4 USA A6 teams.

So if you divide by two and add in teams for the move up, I'm guessing the top 3 teams in the East and West get moved up to A6, as well as South Bend in the East.

Leaving:
-Idaho, Steel City, Detroit, Sleepy Hollow, Iowa, Louisiana State, South Bend

Like I said this is a complete guess, but I think we are looking at some major turnover again, like the exodus last season (CCIA, Texas, Rainham, Cyberimagination, Jacktown, Dirty Cheetas, Enghave.)

West Preseason Top 5:
1.) Austin Packers
2.) Colorado Ice
3.) Brooklyn Beastmen
4.) Chicago Blitz
5.) Chicago Bills


East Preseason Top 5:
1.) South Bend
2.) Myrtle Beach
3.) Columbus
4.) Indianapolis
5.) Sin City



I am not one to talk a lot of trash but you might want to check your top 5..
Oklahoma City Twisters by all means is the top team in BBB11



You ought to be embarrassed to be in this league with that team.
Not sure how you ended up here, but welcome, nonetheless...

did you tank all your games in your last league to move down??

You will excuse him if he didn't expect a team with average guys over level 40 to be moved DOWN into BBB #11

let me put it this way...

I (with my team, Chicago Blitz) am personally embarrassed to play the CPU and low level teams... the way they set these leagues up is crazy, and seems to me that they did no investigation or took no effort to set up the leagues....

So I probably should apologize for sounding crass.

They should reset all the USA BBB leagues into equal leagues.. winning 255-0 will be no fun, and of no use to my team, and only pads stats to those players that check in once in a blue moon.

I'm sure the Oklahoma owner worked hard to get his level 40 players, but his team is comparable now to the team I GM in AAA South America... and Oklahoma is better than most of the teams that got promoted to USA A... and that's a shame.

My guess is, however, (with the way he put his first forum entry about being the best team in the league), is that he is more than happy being in a league he can dominate.... last year was competitive, and this year WOULD have been competitive in the West.

You'd think Bort & Co. could do something with programming to make game scores max out at around 90-0. That still can be boring, but it's within a believable scoring range and ten times better than these 255+ to nothing snoozefests that make a mockery of the League Leaders page and player stats.

Admittedly, maroons who want to see their dot pass for 1000 yards in a game wouldn't care for it.

Hopefully we (Ohio Dagwoods) can get some upsets and atleast go 8-8. I would be happy with that in our first season.

it was kind of fun the first time... after that, it was really just plain stupid... I had a guy carry the ball 11 times last year for 10 TD's, and a 44 yard average per carry.... over 440 yards and 10 TDs on 11 carries... cmon... how fun is that really??

and being the only team that is ten levels above your competition?? PRICELESS

IRT my first forum entry I was responding to mystikalilusion post about leaving us out of his top 5 teams.
NO we are not happy about being back in BBB 11. When we were here in season 5 all the teams were around the same Level. (35-42) but now it Looks like BBB 11 has turned into a rebuilding league. I don’t understand why GLB would move us to a league that we out level most teams by at least 10 LvL. Or why they would put teams in a league that they know higher lvl teams are going to fall into.

But Goodluck to all

^ (what atingwald said)Chicago rules, even with the 10 level higher team I'm pretty sure there's still going to be some good competition for 2nd place, looks to be some great competition this year.
