Oh, and kudos to Bellvue for being the last team in the West with perfect team chemistry so far. They've gotten better and better WITHOUT making moves.

A winning streak is always great to have, but you get -1 team intimidation point for beating cupcake teams. Until you defeat a team above .500, close your lipz.
Orange and Charlestown are mid-level teams in this league. By beating them, Bellvue is staking a solid claim as a playoff-calibur team.
We sure as hell will be taking them seriously when we face them.
There's no question that the Blitz is a hot team now. My point was that it's easy to pound on the little guys in each league but until you take down a Nighthawk or an Abomination, your record is moot. This fact is magnified during playoff time.

I'm looking forward to the season down the stretch. I finally tweaked our tactics enough so that I believe we can be competitive with anyone within reason. If we are at a horrible skill level disadvantage, I'm sure equal tactics will pound us.
I'm just trying to get my team in a position to make the stretch run since I made this team for friends and co-workers that may or may not want to spend the money on it.
I'm enjoying the competition right now. Its great.

Take a look at the start of our season... Save the Regulators (next game) and the Nighthawks (second to last game in regular season), we HAVE faced every top ranked team in our conference, and learned from it... Who do we have left to play besides the "little guys"?

I said "until you defeat" a good team, not "until you FACE a good team." I wasn't questioning the order of your schedule, I was questioning your team's proven toughness and respectability. I agree that you can cruise into the playoffs - not a whole lot of competition left for you except this week and Nighthawks later.
Speaking of "little guys" - nice avatar.

I had originally planned to give you guys more enjoyable reading for today and tomorrow, but there's a little team from up north and to the west I must prepare for.
I'll definitely squeeze in my week 10 picks though.

Also - look for my "weekly" interview to be posted tonight in it's own separate thread. Here's a little preview: it's with an owner of an undefeated BBB #10 team.

You said it was with Birmingham's owner, correct? I'm looking forward to that one as well.

LOL.
This whole week has had a playoff atmosphere for our team. First Nation, now Abomination, then the Gunslingers and Man-Whores.
I can hardly sleep.

Yeah, we went throught that murder's row of opponents in our schedule before we got things figured out. Why do you think we are 4 - 5?

Wow, you really did have those exact opponents in that exact order.
Now I don't feel so bad.

you have to play the San Diego Savages still. You likely lose that game
