We saw another upset victory for the Bay Harbor Butcher taking down the Houston Straw Hats, though some might not call it an update just based off the talent the Bay Harbor Butcher hold.

Thanks for posting these every week! They are fun to read!

Fellas I'm on the board. Watch out.

I appreciate the compliment! Although you chose the worst time to give it, as I have recently become bombarded with IRL work and life stuff so I apologize in advance for not able to keep up with posting the stats and rankings every week. Moving forward though I will continue to try whenever I have time!

Heading into this weekends games, here's a long awaited update look at the Power Rankings! The changes will be reflected from the last update.

Power Rankings after 15 games
1. (0↔) Resurrected Fury (14-1) +362
2. (0↔) Houston Straw Hats (13-2) +47
3. (0↔) Pixies (12-3) +321
4. (0↔) Caerbannog Bunnies (10-5) +347
5. (1↑) San Antonio Outlaws (10-5) +175
6. (-1↓) Breckenridge Mogulbusters (9-6) +315
7. (0↔) Wadsworth Grizzlies (9-6) +221
8. (0↔) Arizona Desert Storm (9-6) -34
9. (0↔) Bay Harbor Butchers (8-7) +206
10. (0↔) Rip City Revival (8-7) +205
11. (0↔) F150 Maverick (5-10) -673
12. (1↑) GR Venom (4-11) -56
13. (-1↓) HumanFund (4-11) -291
14. (1↑) Southern Arizona BK (2-3) -314
15. (-1↓) Herro Ball (2-13) -369
16. (0↔) Team JHop (1-14) -862

Looking at the rankings, it seems the top is crowded with the top heavy teams of the Great 8, as the balance of conferences was reflected in the All-Star Game, with the Great 8 winning against the Big 8 207-155 (a whopping 200+ points!)

The Great 8 has its top four seeds essentially solidified, while over on the Big 8 seeds #1 all the way down to #6 are fighting for a chance at a playoff spot in a closely contested race. The difference will be to compete for a championship, or to fight in relegation (definitely don't want to be on the bottom end of the top 6). Will teams be able to shake up the rankings in their favor? Stay tuned!

How was I to know that you were going to become a slacker at that exact moment! :-) lol jk

I totally understand :-) Life happens! I used to eat drink and live buzzer beater lol. And now I forget to set my lineup on occasion which never used to happen... Focus has shifted.... I bought a player for depth on June 28th, played him 48 minutes The next day in my scrimmage... And then totally forgot about him until yesterday... That would have never happened in the past lol

I hope all your real life stuff is busyness and nothing negative :-)
