you should go by overall rating...there are a ton of AAA teams across the board that made low playoff seedings last year that would get smoked by some good AA teams in the US AA.


overall rating? like the green bars rating?


so you are saying teams with low SA's are better than high SA teams? Can you prove that?



I can prove that my squad deserves to be in the tournament over a team that just happens to have bought their team earlier and are middle of the pack AAA playoff teams...sure.

Tell you what...set your tournament, before it starts I get to pick a team that I wanna play....if I beat them I'm in an replace them..if not I'll STFU.

Just think that it's arbitrary to base the entry criteria on which level you are at....cuz a good deal of that was first come first served when we all bought our teams...if I'd have bought my team 3-4 days earlier it would have been AAA after the reorganization and not AA#2...which is jacked, cuz we won the championship in what is now the AA#3



You know, I really can't wait until seasons 10-11 when people stop being able to cling to the "But you bought your team earlier" excuse. That level playing field will be real nice.

For your sake, I'll give you quick talley

Detroit:

Pro: 1 (me being nice)
Con: 11

Monkeys

Pro: 1
Con: 13

So, yeah. It's not "owner" bias in the least..it's the teams realizing what a complete waste of time this is.



Teams in the tournament that are going to miss either of yours teams: 0


Count the amount of titles won by them compared to the teams in it.

Hell, throw your count in too if you like.




No one cares about little league trophies. You are playing with the Pros up here. Why don't you get that?

A re-shuffle would accomplish the same thing, right?

Based on player requests, Detroit will sadly not be involving ourself with this joke (despite posting in here before)

Good luck to whoever wins this meaningless tourney.




So it was legit til you decided that you didn't want in, then now it sucks?? lol.

Your 2nd account is imthescientist (Cobra Kai), right?


No

I posted in here pre-team forum posts about it. My own opinion aside (I hated it last year too), I let the team choose just like last year. Every team I am own or GM for has been vehemently against it so far...all title winners (Monkeys, LLRC, Cheetahs, Prague etc)

Sorry, it's a joke when the best teams won't even bother joining it as scrims are meaningless in the long run.

The only way you can consider yourself amongst the elite is making a tourney allegedly full of them but alas you can't get them to join. I'd truly hate to be you SI..it's a sad state.

Good luck.



Seems like you put your petty little personal problem with me over your team's chance at some fun. Sorry to hear that.


Wow what a surprise! SteelersInsider spreading misinformation when he doesn't know anything about what he is talking about. A bunch of the players voted against it because we'd rather focus on winning Pro and would rather not be associated with a tournament ran by you.



Like I said...petty personal problem with me....

SO SAYS THE boy whose team has no trophies and snuck into a pro league through the back door. Silly little loser boy.

Also, if I recall correctly the Evil Monkeys made it to the sweet 16 of this little tourney last year. Your right we can't hang with the "big boys"

Only USA AAA?
Not whack at all?
I'd bet that the London Angels or Pa Dong can beat plenty of those teams.

Halifax are totally going to sheep this up.

If Trout, Hobos, CCC and Dryden participate we will.

Wait, if Brisbane Heat made it into the tourny, the Grinnell Pioneers deserve to be in as well.

No, at least not if it's done by levels.

Everyone is boosted this season, no excuses. The best team will win.


Stop saying things that are obviously untrue.

And might as well throw the Trout in that list, seems my team wants to play.
