Done.

Krazy should be top 10 for sure. Monkeyman & REB may own several players on their team but they're affiliated with many quality agents and their tactics are really good. Monkeyman is near Havoc status imo with his understanding for the game.

For those AAA teams who think they should be on this list please stop. I don't care about you running the table in A AA AAA unless it's in the USA ladder. Great streaks that you have come to die in Pro leagues. This list should have only pro teams on it. Mayan... you guys lost 6 games in the worst of the 2 Can pro conferences. Osaka Buckeyes streak ended in the AAA playoffs. They haven't played a pro game yet and people want to add them to this list. This is a nice list to debate.

I just wanna know, SI, how much yoga you've done? Must be a pretty decent amount to blow yourself so much like this.
ALB FIRST to use the FA market? Thank God the rest of us never even looked there I guess.
ALB not heavily dependent on owner-players? Remember when half the team was SI players?
ALB most active forums? I GUARANTEE thats not the case.
ALB first to use trades? I think DDL and the Mustangs might disagree with you.
And, considering the fairly high number of agents that leave your team and turn around to bad-mouth you, I don't see how you can think of yourself too highly.

No AAA? Ok, so why is Washington Wolfpacks in this list? They lost in the second round of USA AAA#2 last season and were promoted by Bort realigment...

QFT lol
the best part is "ALB not heavily dependent on owner-players"... half of his team were his own players and the other half were owner swap/ trades lol
Oh yes... 'most active forums' part was fun too

So, keep upgrading is the rule to make this list? I'm very proud that we (Compton Vikings) didn't make this list then. I'd rather lose than replace my friends for higher levels.

It has been the most successful model and was followed by almost every team in the top 25.
And have fun losing with your friends in USA Pro. We'll see how long your friends want to stay on a 6-10 team that loses 1/2 of those games by 30+ points. It will get really old really quickly. Maybe you guys can work your asses off and pull a 8-8 season before you realize that you are going to have to wait 4-5 seasons before you catch up in level (if then). You will be demoted before then though.
Good luck (and I sincerely mean that).

Seems you have trouble reading.
I said we were the most active forums at one point. That was fact. That led to the period where we signed most of the agents we currently have. I even added another sentence to make it more clear. I no longer claim the title of most active forum, but we are still in the top 1%:

SI also specifically targeted active posters and used the "most active forum in GLB" claim to land many top prospects in the past. While no longer the most active forums any longer, they are without alot of the drama of the past and are still very active.
My players were always mostly back-ups and still are. They were all under-leveled for what I needed to have to compete at the highest levels because I didn't start on day 0 and boosted early to keep my teams alive at the time.
FIRST? That is a very subjective term. I literally don't mean the 1st trade. I'm sure that wasn't me. But anyone who was around the trade forum in the early years knows that SteelCityMafia and I were 2 of the most active. Little different strategies, but 2 of the early most active traders when most teams were simply just letting players contracts run out and then get frustrated and quitting.
DDL was also active in trading as well from what I recall. I didn't say we were the ONLY team to use trades. I said it was a big reason for our success. I noted the loans/trades that DDL used on their little writeup also. Maybe you missed that. And the Mustangs aren't around anymore, so are you saying I should be listing them in this list?
