I am going to go out on a limb and post some purely guessing and uninformed predictions, just because the offseason is so long and I am getting bored. I am sure I have many too high and too low. This is simply me starting some conversation. I think any of the top 8 could win the league. Also, any of the bottom 12 could finish 15th or 16th. If I had to pick some dark-horses, I think Arkadak and Minsk Mullet Mafia could have great seasons and win 12-15 games. Tyrrhenian, Alexandrovsk, and Vilnius could all solidly move up. I do think that there will not be any easy games this season, and that 11 wins will get a home playoff game and 12 or 13 games could win the conference.
1 - 106.88 - (1-4) Buda Pests - Only 1 loss last season in Pro. Hard to not have them #1.
2 - 102.57 - (1-4) Vladivostok Voodoo - 3 Losses in Pro last season, 2 by less than a TD, then a 3 point loss to Sofia in Poffs.
3 - 104.23 - (1-5) Warsaw Wrath - 12-4 in Pro and 2 losses by 3 points or less. Solid career record.
4 - 104.59 - (2-5) Minsk Ninjas - 3 Losses in Pro, 2 by less than a TD. Only Poff loss to Warsaw drops them to 4.
5 - 102.84 - (1-5) Arkadak Arsenal - Best 8-8 team in Pro last season. 5 Losses by less than a TD. Levels starting to catch up this season.
6 - 107.23 - (3-6) Sevastopol Seamen - Not sure where to put these guys. 2nd best AAA team, 16-0, upgraded levels. Could go higher.
7 - 111.43 - (2-8) Blackburn Carnage - Hard to judge also, moved over from WE AAA. Only 1 fluky loss. Could go higher.
8 - 104.58 - (2-9) Minsk Mullet Mafia - Former Prague Sharks, tough talent, better tactics. Slightly under-leveled, if tactics stay sharp could move up.
9 - 96.22 - (4-14) Mukachevo Coyotes - Struggled the hard way up here. Stuck in AAA for years. More likely to finish 4th or 13th, avg is 9th.
10 - 95.74 - (5-12) Tyrrhenian Sea Wasps - Always been top notch team. Finished with 7 losses to end season. Still underlevled, but will 1st half S11 team or 2nd half show up?
11 - 96.29 - (5-13) Alexandrovsk Conquerors - Historically solid team. Still low 60's, so could hit Pro stride this or next season, probably next.
12 - 90.30 - (7-16) Dallas Smoke stacks - Hard to judge. Picked up some new guys. Could improve, but lost tough games by 20+ last season.
13 - 91.48 - (6-16) Vilnius Iron Wolves - Tough season last year. Probably 1 season away from making top 4 Pro move.
14 - 96.35 - (6-16) Bruges Biaviians - Seriously under-leveled, but usually makes up for it in tactics. A lot of levels to make up, could improve upon 13, but has lot of room to go.
15 - 100.30 - (2-16) Sparta Battle Chickens - I think this is probably the one I am off the most. They could be as high as 2 or low as 15. Finished strong last season, only losing 1 of last 11 and it was to World League SOFIA by 1.
16 - 88.64 - (7-16) The Hague Hustlers - Zeta transfer. Could finish as high as 8 or as low as 16. Hard to judge.
did you just pick us to get relegated? I hope in 40 days or so you can eat some crow and choke on it

No. You were kind of left to the side until I finished. I really couldn't figure out where you fell. I should have probably put you below the regular rankings. I have you between 2-16. If I had to choose at the moment, I would probably put you in the 3-6 spots. Like I said this was only to start conversation. All I have probably done is make anyone I placed in the bottom 6 or 8 to spend an extra hour or 2 gameplanning against my team and make my season harder. Take it for what it is.

Is'nt saying a team will finish 2-16 kinda like saying they will finish somewhere? Who logically says that? I don't care where you put us, but 2-16 pretty much covers all your bases where we have to get first in order for you to be wrong.
So, argue your points....why do you think we "could" finish 2nd? And then argue why we "could" finish 16, just curious...
And FOR THE RECORD, we have NEVER finished 16th

I'm looking forward to our matchups next season in AAA.

lol.....Whatever.....Pests will go undefeated this season, we have upgraded from last season, a season that had a single loss ( 2 points) against the basic AI (took that day off), and a loss in the Conference Championship to the league champion, by 4 points on some screwy sim.....Mark this, it is our last season with these guys (retiring) they will win the Gold this season.

try not to beat us by 100 please. And don't int my QB. I don't like ints. We play you guys kind of early and it's going to be bad enough having the morale spiral going on. Keep it more like last seasons game, that wasn't too bad a whooping we took. Thanks in advance.

And a loss to Hellas in the final game. How soon you forget!!
