Hello gang - just dropped in to check on the old neighborhood to see what's shaking.

Well looky here - got Shortbus at 5-0 matched up against Sofia at 4-1 (damn those
pesky SeaWasps).

Looks to be a great match-up. Going to have to take a minute to check the results on that
and maybe catch a little PBP.

I know you are all dying to know so I'll tell you - Warsaw is 4-1 so far, but we have a
tough game against Chocolate Blaze coming up tonight. It's a toss up between them and
Valhalla for best team in GLB right now.



Good luck, Wrath!

GL. Way to rep EEPLalpha so far! Keep it up

We beat the spread - and you are in the money if you took the over.

I was surprised. When I looked at their film, I figured we were the underdogs. That's okay, we'll find a way to lose next week and kill our streak! I hear those CPUs got buffed again.

I am a believer - they killed us.

No one will beat Valhalla

Blaze/Valhalla is the lock for the CC in Zeta, and the winner will also take the LC. Right now, those two teams are heads and shoulders above the rest of GLB. Only chance I see of an upset is if a fierce defense can get a couple turnovers and control the clock, but I think MPHD will be hurting a little much from decline by that point, and I'm not sure that Bonn is good enough this season.

I think the Masterminds in USA Pro are probably as close as anyone to those 2 teams.

Darn good team. They crushed us (Alpine) in league play. Looks like they have some quality scrim wins too. The problem is that they appear to be pretty old and heading into decline with no boost next season, so I don't think they'll be as good next season when they're actually in the WL. One of the problems with the short plateau is that you really have to time your jump to the top of the game or else you could end up never really knowing if you could have competed with the best in the game.

Yup, and you gotta get lucky, too.

You can time your jump all you want, but if you're trying to dominate any pro league with age:360-400 dots, and someone else is doing the same with age:440 dots, well, they've got AT LEAST 3 levels and a season's worth of VXP on you. The plateau really needs to start at season 8, and go through season 12 (or even 14). The way it's set up now just encourages extreme turnover in the upper leagues, which I really don't think is a good thing.

Not only that, but a lot of people don't really enjoy recruiting perfectly aged dots every single season. That's not a team, that's the Yankees.
