BTW guys,

Looking at record isn't exactly a fair comparison, when you're just playing teams in your own league.

I'm glad somebody said it.

Overall rating is a terrible indicator of team strength. The All-Stars at 33 are significantly better than the 27s or whatnot. The Silverymoon Elves at 30 slaughtered the other "30" team in BBB13.

I second that. The overall rating is a horrible indication of how good a team is.

As far as league strength, BBB #12 is good but we aren't full of good teams. We have like 4+ really strong teams in the league and the rest are poor-average.

You mean you slaughtered the other "30" in your conference...torrance spartans are also a "30" and you haven't played us yet...

Really.....take a look at 13...

I did... The eastern half of your conference is one of worst conferences in the BBBs. Their is some strength in the west, but not nearly enough to make up for this. Overall the league average is nothing compared to 12's.

BBB #13 Breakdown

Team...........Number of......Number of.......Total
Overall........Teams..........Teams...........for
Rating.........Eastern........Western.........Both
-----------------------------------------------------
33................0.............0..............0
30................1.............2..............3
27................4............11.............15
24...............11.............3.............14
------------------------------------------------------

The eastern half of BBB#13 is one of only a handful to have more teams rated 24 than 27 or 30. The strength is the western conference is above average, but nothing special.

If I get bored enough at work tomorrow I'll type this up for all the conferences/ leagues.

Also - I should note that I do not firmly believe that a teams overall rating is a perfectly accurate measure of how tough they are. Further their is a great deal of variance with-in each score. One 27 can be much much tougher than another 27. The best of the 24's is probably a good deal better than the worst of the 27s. However, I can not find a single example of a 24 beating a 30... so their is SOMETHING to them. With nothing else to go on, I think that average overall rating is probably a fairly accurate measure for the comparative toughness of each league.


EDIT: Edited to make the table more readable.

Nice work...but the fact that Tecmo is in the bbb#12 conference...skews all their numbers, take them out and the conference is average at best...

BBB 3. Not being biased, it is a very tough league. 8th place in the East is 8-4! The West has 3 one loss teams. Very tough league.

^ Yea...that...

It is tough to say any 1 league is tougher than any other. But if you think about what makes a team tough, obviously the playcalling does in fact make a difference but level of players is a HUGE factor in this game. All the quality playcalling in the world likely won't win a game for you if your teams level average is 8 and your opponents is 13.

That being said, I have to nominate #14 like General Terms mentions. High level average on lot of the teams. Oh wait, that's MY league! What a coincidence!

BBB#16 On one side we have the Dallas Orangebloods and Easy Company, along with 3 or 4 others that are very goo teams, and on the other side, Atlanta Hitmen might be the class of the conference along with Naperville, the Marauders, Launch, and St Louis.

I personally am looking forward to watching some very good playoff games.

I also have to go with BBB 16

I'm going with the hat trick for BBB#16. This playoff season will be BRUTAL.

BBB #0!!!

I haven't really looked at other 3Bs, but I think the 3B9 West is very competitive with each other.

bbb14, hard place to play in. 4 teams with 10-2 records and still fighting for second place. The team overalls are high and the play has been awsome. a couple come from behind wins and things like that. A few shockers here and there. overall a very good league.
