skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Good wins against quality teams get them the #1 spot
vournsdsu Beat the Wrath & Arsenal.

2. Minsk Ninjas 4-0
Average Rank 2.82
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc Not putting up big points, but getting the job done.
dmcdulin Easily could be number one also, week 5 will determine true #1 as they play Battle Chickens.
agoptix
dlux67 Off to another strong start. Soft middle of the schedule gives way to a tough finish.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Two solid wins against the Seamen and Wrath put them in the #2 spot.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Always dangerous, but have not been challenge yet.

Average Rank 2.36
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc Probably the toughest schedule so far of the unbeatens and still getting the wins.
dmcdulin Only loss was a close one to top dog Sparta. Will be in the top 4 at the end.
agoptix
dlux67 This team is looking strong. Big wins over Arkadak and Warsaw to start...ridiculous defense.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Maybe a little bias here, but I think Blackburn is a very solid team from top to bottom on both sides of the ball. Only loss to Mojo.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Still have the meat of their schedule on the horizon.
vournsdsu Another old EE Pro old guard off to a strong start.

Bad Results this week:
allenc Only loss is to Odessa in Zeta, teams better watch out of the Carnage.
dmcdulin Top tier team also, only loss to Odessa.
agoptix
dlux67 Big win over Vladivostok got my attention. We'll see where this team really stands after its next four.
lewtz4u
ksan218 4-0, but fairly weak SOS so far. Blackburn game tomorrow is big for both teams.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Only loss to the high powered Ninjas
vournsdsu Beating the Voodoo makes them pretty legit.
rockitsauce Talked way too much in the forums to lose to Mojo in week 1.

5. Vladivostok Voodoo 3-1
Average Rank 5.55
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc They are putting up points, but couldn't match Blackburn. The next 4 games will be brutal.
dmcdulin Too easy of a schedule to put in top tier yet. Can earn respect in week 5 against Blackburn.
agoptix
dlux67 Beaten in their only real test this season. We'll see where they stand as they go Warsaw, Arkadak, Sevastopol, Buda in their next four...yowza!
lewtz4u
ksan218 A couple of solid wins...next few games will tell us a lot about the Wrath
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Close loss to Sparta, and some tough games coming up.
vournsdsu Only loss was to the Carnage.
rockitsauce Offense leads the way to victory, but defense needs to improve to move up the rankings.

6. Warsaw Wrath 3-1
Average Rank 5.55
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc Lost a close one to Sparta, the wins are looking good. A couple of big matchups before midseason will shake out this part of the rankings.
dmcdulin Solid team also, only loss to Blackburn doesn't look too bad.
agoptix
dlux67 Out of the gate at 3-1 tough loss to Sparta. This team will be in it to win it all year long.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Lethal passing game, but big holes in their D that the better offensive teams in Alpha will expose.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Loss to the Mojo, but huge win over the Voodoo show they belong in EEPL
vournsdsu Lost to the Battle Chickens but can be easily a top 4 team.
rockitsauce Took Sparta to the end. Could easily be ranked much higher.

7. Vilnius Iron Wolves 3-1
Average Rank 6.64
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc The 4 point win to the Mullet Mafia is a little puzzling, but they have the ability to hang in playoff contention.
dmcdulin Tough loss against Arkadak and loss to Budapests. Those are not bad losses, so they could move up.
agoptix
dlux67 Taking a wait and see approach with this team. Solid win over C-Town - the others don't impress. Should be able to make some hay in their next four.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Playing down to their competition? Puzzling team, that I havent seen enough of to really judge fairly.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Putting up points on offense. Loss to the Carnage hurts their ranking
vournsdsu Best 2-2 team of the class.
rockitsauce 3-1, but easily handled in their toughest test. They could struggle down the stretch

8. Tyrrhenian Sea Wasps 2-2
Average Rank 8.55
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc Big win over Sevastopol is the only bright spot so far. They'll have to prove they deserve their spot over the next 4 games.
dmcdulin 1 point loss to Estonian, and big loss to Battle Chickens. Could be 2nd tier or could be middle tier.
agoptix
dlux67 Consistently inconsistent to start the year alternating wins and losses. I expect this team to be in playoff contention all season long.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Definite playoff contender. Seem to have some major ups and downs.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Up and down every week. Lots of talent, and can beat anyone in any given week.
vournsdsu Beating who they should but needs to beat the top tier teams.
rockitsauce Their offense seems capable of scoring, but their defense has lost their 2 games

9. Arkadak Arsenal 2-2
Average Rank 8.45
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc Getting shutout by anyone isn't good at this level, but a win over the Sea Wasps could mean they will be competing for the playoffs.
dmcdulin Middle of the pack for now with easy schedule.
agoptix
dlux67 Should clearly hand their OC his walking papers after the smushsmrtion against Estonia. Hanging tough now and looking to pick up some W's to get positioned for the playoffs.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Lots of talent, could be a threat, but havent lived up to potential every week.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Two tough losses, but should be a playoff team
vournsdsu Setting up to be a late seed playoff team.
rockitsauce Jekyll & Hide. Two impressive wins, but two unimpressive losses

Average Rank 10.18
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc They'll need to turn around the lossing streak soon to stay in playoff contention.
dmcdulin 2 losses in a row drop them down 10th.
agoptix
dlux67 Last of the 2-2 teams. Haven't seen much yet, no statement win this early in the season.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Another 2-2 start. Staying in the playoff race, but need a couple of big wins in their next few games.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Tough schedule so far. Will win some big games this season.
vournsdsu 3 pt win over the Hustlers doesn't really say much.
rockitsauce Easy two wins vs two worst ranked teams in both conferences. Soundly beaten in other two contests.

11. Alexandrovsk Conquerors 1-3
Average Rank 10.82
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc Only win is to a team below them. Does that mean they are right were they belong? They've had a tough schedule, but they'll need to turn it around fast.
dmcdulin Tough schedule put them in starting hole. Probably will move up.
agoptix
dlux67 Played a tough schedule to start. Need to see a little more from this team after 3 seasons in the pros.

12. Bruges Biaviians 1-3
Average Rank 12.18
Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc A 7 point win over a winless team isn't much to brag about. Bruges may be out of playoff contention already.
dmcdulin Extrememly underleveled, but hanging in there. Could move up with a few upsets.
agoptix
dlux67 Next four will make or break their season. May need a little more seasoning in the pros before they compete every game.
lewtz4u
ksan218 Brutal schedule to start with...I think they will turn it around some now though.
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Only one win, and a close one over the Coyotes.

rockitsauce Out matched, but still not winless. Happy to play spoiler until their guys "grow up".

13. Dallas Smoke stacks 0-4

Good Results this week:
Bad Results this week:
allenc May be the toughest Alpha schedule so far, but now Dallas has a huge hill to climb to get out of the cellar.
dmcdulin Couple of tough losses and couple of big losses. Seem to be just shy of making the move to middle of the pack.
agoptix
dlux67 Another schitzo start to the season...tough against Omaha and Minsk, not so much against Vladivostok and Blackburn
lewtz4u
ksan218 Looking at a tough season....If their D can step it up some, they may be able to get to .500
skeetersmif
Kurt Davey
nthomas Struggling so far, but have had the hardest schedule in alpha to date.
vournsdsu Used to be a solid team. Not sure what's going on.

Bad Results this week:

vournsdsu Switching conferences didn't help.
rockitsauce Kept one game close, but generally not competitive.

Curious why you think the Carnage talked too much smack prior to our game with the Mojo....dont remember any smack talk at all...

thanks for posting this though

Buda too high

Wow, the comments don't match up with the teams a lot of times, weird. But thanks for putting these together.

Veg talked quite a bit of smack. It's not a bad thing.

EDIT: Went back through and realized he just stands out more than most (avatar?). He didn't talk any smack to Mojo, but a little to some others. Funny stuff, though.

Thanks, rockit and good stuff. The numbers are right, but we were trying the same spreadsheet that zeta uses, and had some issues on how to enter the data, so the comments are not right. But good rankings anyway.

Looks like I was one of the guys who screwed things up in the spreadsheet, so my comments are all off. Here are my rankings with comments:

Sparta Battle Chickens.... 1..... Good wins against quality teams get them the #1 spot
Minsk Ninjas..... 2..... Always dangerous, but have not been challenge yet.
Buda Pests ..... 3..... Still have the meat of their schedule on the horizon.

Warsaw Wrath..... 5..... Close loss to Sparta, and some tough games coming up.
Blackburn Carnage..... 6..... Loss to the Mojo, but huge win over the Voodoo show they belong in EEPL
Vladivostok Voodoo..... 7..... Putting up points on offense. Loss to the Carnage hurts their ranking
Arkadak Arsenal..... 8..... ..... Up and down every week. Lots of talent, and can beat anyone in any given week.
Tyrrhenian Sea Wasps..... 9..... Two tough losses, but should be a playoff team
Alexandrovsk Conquerors..... 10..... Tough schedule so far. Will win some big games this season.
Sevastopol Seamen ..... 11..... Fantastic defense, but having problems putting points on the board.
Bruges Biaviians ..... 12 ..... Only one win, and a close one over the Coyotes.

The Hague Hustlers ..... 15..... Offense is struggling to get anything going so far.
Minsk Mullet Mafia ..... 16..... Tough schedule so far, so it is hard to judge if this team will get some wins this season.

Hum....I think you need a new #1 NT........good stuff

Comments were a bit off. Here's what I said about the Pests, "I hate them". thanks
