There is no question in anyone's mind right now that USA AAA is >>> EE Pro or Africa Pro. No one even disputes that.

So a team that began in USA A and in 2 seasons is now up to USA AAA doesn't get to compete, but a team that started 2 seasons ago in a much weaker Africa AAA and is now the Africa Pro champs is in? How is that fair??



First off, I will disput your claim tha USA AAA is >>> than EEP. We have beaten USA pro, Canada PRO and SE Asia Pro teams in a few tournaments. The SGA is up to the challenge. If your saying that EE as a whole is down, I agree, if your saying that the top teams cant play with EVERYONE else, your wrong...

secondly... It was never stated as a fair tournament. It was a tournament that more than a few people would like to see, Its a step in the right direction. thats all.



Of course I mean the entire league. I know your team is good, but do you even make it to the league Championship game if you had to play the Cincinnati Shockers in round 1? Maybe not.

I just meant the quality and depth of your league isn't sufficient to say #2 in your league > #4 or #5 in USA AAA.

You know I respect your team.

I'll give you a better example. If USAORG couldn't have participated, then the #2 team from that league would likely have lost by 60+ points to any of these other 7 teams.

I'm not saying your team wasn't a worthy top 8 selection (I think it was), but I'm just saying that your weak opponents that you are beating in league right don't prove it, nor would a league championship this year because the competition is so weak. That's all.


Just an fyi Insider, the 1st place team in EE Pro Alpha(Cheetahs) just beat the 2nd place team in USA AAA#1 West 48-14 so...

Just an FYI jrry32, this tournament is based on last year's results. As such, the Cheetahs were in AAA and wouldn't have even been considered even though they won their league and their league wasn't much different than Africa Pro in terms of quality.

And again, I said the TOP of the league talent in EE matches up against anyone, but the #3 through #8 seeds in the playoffs are not even close to top leagues. Maybe a top team like Trout or DDL get bumped out early because they have to play a OOTP or Nighthawks early in the playoffs while teams in lesser leagues basically had a bye to the conference championship game. USAORG didn't even need to face a team in the top 120 teams to win Africa Pro. See that I mean?

Also, fyi, the top teams in AAA last year are not in AAA this year. You need to see how top and mid level EE Pro teams did vs teams that are now in USA Pro like the Maulers, Doomsday Sin, Freebirds, etc to accurately measure that.

I'd like to see the Cheetahs play the Honolulu Hurricane Warriors of USA AAA1. #1 vs. #1. But the owner of that team would never do it, he doesn't give a crap about scrimmages
