Weren't you in 9th going into today? You definitely have a good shot at finishing higher, but the outrage seems a bit out of place.


He lists rankings based on his opinion, not on standings. I don't think there's any reasonable argument, yesterday or today, that has us at 9th. So I'm calling him out on it.

Where would you rank us in ability? Did you think we were the 9th best team in the conference when we played?

My post was hardly outrage. cv has thick skin, he dishes it out, he should be able to take a little criticism.



If you don't like the rankings then do them yourself.


oh grow up. I sure hope cv doesn't post these rankings so that everyone will make a big thread talking about how perfect they are. This is a forum. He starts a thread with rankings, now you don't want people to discuss them? If you think we belong at 9 then make a good case for it.


I like MEbenhoe and all but this is the reason they are #9

If you're going to keep dissing us for beating bad teams in close games, you also should give us credit for losing in very close games to playoff teams. Like the game we lost 22-20 where the other team made three 50+ yard field goals in the 4th quarter, including a 59.5 yarder. Or the overtime loss to BSB or losing by one to Las Vegas.

We have no illusions about being the best in USA Pro, it's a tough conference this year, but we are most definitely a top 8 team. That (9) has no business being next to our name.



beat the Thunderstorm and you can be 8, I don't think you guys will climb much higher than that.

We've still got a long way to go. We've got two gimmies left and 3 tough games, so we could very conceivably be left on the outside. We pretty much have to beat one of OKC, Minnesota, or SF, so next weeks (aka 2 days from nows) game is pretty big. Columbus is certainly a better team than I think they are given credit for and certainly were not a gimmie.



I think you guys will beat OKC. MN should be a good game. I think San Fran is a tall order though

Thanks PP,

Romeorr has done a great job turning things around for us. I truly believe most of it was in our game planning and not that I think he was doing a shitty job...there are things we are starting to see now. This league is mod infested and you can't tell me that some of the mods here don't know more about this game than the average person...

I've been on this team since Season 4 and yes, maybe we have no trophies, but our team deserves to be up here...we may not be near the best right now, but we are definitely a playoff bound team(except this season). Have you guys not noticed our recent games...we are starting to figure things out...

There's no point in being a douche bag like some of you are acting...but when we do beat you, I'd like to see who has the balls to actually quit....


Dude, that's a lame ass excuse, mods know nothing more than us UNLESS they worked hard, experimented and learned thing themselves...I know some mods that are not very good with the AI. Basically, of course not everyone is going to know the same amount about the AI, some know more...others know less but to use them being a mod to say that they are given an advantage is dumb...hell Galkuris is not very good with the AI at all. Luckily, he has some top notch GMs!


BTW PP, I don't think we would give Dallas so much shit if they hadn't trash talked so much before the season began then not backed it up...us Monkeys trash talk...but we back it up.

Hell, I suck at everything on GLB. I'm just lucky I keep recruiting good players because I can't seem to build my own right....but I do know what to look for in others!

You're lucky people try to help you with all of your AI problems even when you are annoying said person by PMing them 10 times a minute.

BTW the offense looked good today...over 500 yards.

Well, obviously, the game against OKC is a tough one and I'm going to look like a moron if we lose, which is quite possible. I think given all available evidence right now, though, we should be slightly favored to win that game and should have at least a #8 ranking.

Summary of this thread today:

1) I point out that we should be ranked higher than 9th.
2) Person A tells me to shut my mouth
3) Person A states that we should probably be ranked 8th and/or we are favored to beat OKC (who cv has ranked 8th)

rinse and repeat with person B,C,D, etc.

then add in jfbueno blindly supporting his buddy with no logic

This is a role playing game, not professional sports.

Also, guys that say "they did their best, we just had some bounces go our way" are lying. That bullshit coddling is why we have so many inept fat kids and GM is going bankrupt and global terroism is on the rise. If people would just tell and accept the truth and take responsibility for themselves maybe the world would be a better place. Terrorist!


Actually we have to many fat kids because instead of outside playing they are inside sitting at the playstation or the computer playing games like this. Parents who choose to work, instead of spending time with their kids, because they have to have that 52" tv and luxury car instead of a 19" tv and a used car. Executives who feel that they should get paid millions of dollars for not really doing crap is why we are in the financial situation america is in. GM paying their employees $60+ an hour and the executives even more. Global terrorism happens when you have a nation of fat asses and another nation who cant get enough food on the plate. Coddling doesnt create this, but a lack of respect for you fellow human being creates this.

up until the 20th century inflation was nonexistant, yet now there is a avg of 3 to 6 percent a year.
