Hey! You can take your messed up street system, inflated sense of self-importance because you have the state capitol and the RNC, and your "practice freeway", and go back to Crocus Hill where you belong

In BBB there are 8 franchises based in Minnesota. Here's a list, and overall at time of posting to have some point of reference to skill. (I know it's not perfect)

* - Interested

1. Minnesota Americans (BBB #1 - Overall 36)
2. Minnesota Eagles (BBB #8 - Overall 36)
3. Minnesota Fire (BBB #16 - Overall 42)
4. Minnesota Lumberjacks (BBB #6 - Overall 42)
5. Minnesota Mountain Lions (BBB #12 - Overall 36)
6. Minnesota Purple People Eaters (BBB #3 - Overall 42)
7. Minnesota Rage (BBB #14 - Overall 36)
8. Minnesota Skulls (BBB #5 - Overall 45)

There are 21 total teams I've found in the Team Search based in the Land of 10,000 Lakes) ranging from USA Pro to South America A. But I figured I'd start here. We could fill it out to eight to keep it reasonable with other leagues that would be interested.


You can add my VIktors to that list!

Love the enthusiasm, but this specific one appears to be for BBB teams only as far as I know.

Well as of right now we have 6 people who said they'd be on board. As soon as we hit 8, I'll post in this thread the match-ups, and people can start scheduling their games. Shoot for the first day possible that works for all parties, and we can have it done before the end of the season.

I realize some people may have not boosted, but that's the way most of these tournaments are going. If your team is bolded on the front page, and you do not want to play, let us know as soon as possible.

Match-ups will be a rough seeding system based on match-up ratings. (Not a lot of thought is going into that, so don't get your panties twisted. I'm just going to grab the 42s and put them on the 36s in alphabetical order, etc) Some teams will have a harder path than others, but to be the best you've got to beat the best, and you'll save on flex if you go out early anyway.

In case you're not familiar with the friendly scrimmage system, your team receives two free friendlies, and each one will cost 25 Flex for each team there after. That means at least the final game will cost 25 flex, so make sure you can cover it.

If you become the LaCrescent River Rats, you might be OK. Plus you'd get bonus points from me as my girlfriend is from that area.

We didn't really get a lot of interest here, only 6 teams, and we're down to about 10 days to do about 14 days worth of games, so maybe next year, unless someone wants to take the ball and run with it.
