My 5 B teams that can still turn it around and salvage their season (not in any order):

1) Larry`s - Obviously much better than their 1-2 record. Their 2 losses are to United and Arsenals, two consensus top 5 teams.
2) Team Franchise - They`re at 2-2, and it seems like they might be playing smarter football now. The next two weeks will be a real test for them as they draw United then the Outlaws.
3) Midgets - Yeah, they`re 0-4 and got spanked their first 2 games. But they just played the Outlaws and PS very tough, and both games came down to last second plays. They could easily be 2-2 right now.
4) Genocide - Two close losses to CN and the Penetrators. If they can learn to finish games, we`ll be hearing about them all over the boards.
5) Team America - Come on, could they really be this bad? After running undefeated in C in the Spring and almost winning the Reston Cup, have they really become a bad team? I don`t think so and I think they can turn it around and win a few more.

Can still turn it around and lose their next 2 games. That`ll show that their season has been a fluke.

I don`t think fluke is the right term. If they lose the next two games, they`re still a 4-2 team that won the games they should have and lost to teams that everyone thinks is better. That doesn`t sound like a fluke to me.

Well

What About Acid?? Can they turn it around??

Yeah acid has a chance to turn it around..... Next season, sorry its the truth.

Fluke?

C`mon. So Now then every team {Diezel,Midgets, TF, Acid....} has a 4 game winning FLUKE? Ok so ever teams first 4 games should NOT be counted in regards to any team being able to Play ball, regardless!

Stop making excuses for your bad choice`s in calling games.

Granted, Not every team deserves to be in the B league, but until you face a few teams in an upper league you really don`t know.
In the past most teams bumping up from C to B league end up with a low record their first few rounds in the upper league, even if they had a CLEAN record in C. i.e. TA!

So lets See, TA crashes a few games, but still are considered legit in being "Qualified" in the B Division. But an Average PS team from C league, pulling a 4-0 against other B teams that "Someone" saw them as "Qualified" teams to play in B league. and yet PS is the Fluke?

Let me guess, IF PS wins one of their next games, Outlaws or United, Whats the excuse then? ~>{paid the Ref`s? United or Outlaws only had six players?,, oh wait How about PS cheated?}

Look, I`m not saying PS is a Great team, before in C, they seems average at best, for C league! once their Split though, the talk just stopped and they actually seem to be working together as a team now. That alone makes for any team facing them to be concerned over, talent or not! You can call it a fluke, but know that that "Fluke" is working and in past seasons a Fluke has taken a team all the way to number 1.
You`d be an idiot to sleep on a team that has 4 wins their first time in the B league regardless of Whom they have faced.
Maybe just ask the teams that have faced them last six or seven games (counting tournaments and C playoffs) on a legit level, NOt this 3rd grade Message board level. LEGIT!

ps vs midgets - refs were clearly in favor of ps -

Clearly you weren`t watching the whole game, Did you miss the Midgets tackling (not a flag tackle) PS on (3) or (4) counts without the ref`s calling it?

I watched more of the 2nd half, but it looked very even. the ref`s did a good Job just give up on the excuses!

I was watching and obviously that watcher missed #0 on psquad trying to close line a reciever and #5 doing it- which is why #5 got hit right in the jaw.

PSquad did a great job holding on in the end - much deserved win

I take it? Can`t say I have they`re Numbers down and that sounds more like one play, not the whole game?
To say the ref`s missed one call, or two? Still the ref`s did a good job which was my point.

it`s obvious

To : RE I saw the game

There is a difference between aggressively trying to intercept the ball on defense and trying to deliberately run someone over offense. One is legal and the other is not. People hit me hard all the time when I`m on offense but I would never try to lower my shoulder on someone. I play aggressively not dirty alright and I don`t talk trash. I`m surprised the refs didn`t toss his pathetic butt after that play. I`m %100 sure he wouldn`t try that if I was ready. From what I`ve seen this year certain players on the Midgets have very poor sportsmanship.


Plain and simple

"From what I`ve seen this year certain players on the Midgets have very poor sportsmanship."

I would have to agree with PS#5 on that statement.

Yes sir!

PS 5 is right on....Midgets, if you want to improve, start by dumping #60. He is worthless, and a hot head.

thats why

Their safety is number 1. He could probably go too and they would be better off. I like aggressive play in this league. I think its the difference between good players and average players but he has on multiple occasions went head hunting.

I feel confident in saying that the poster `a first` at 4:02 PM is not a Practice Squad player. Generally you`ll see us logged in if we want to make a comment. We also make it a point to try to be respectful of every team we play and will not be blowing our own horn. We all feel very fortunate to have had such a good start to the season and we will have a huge test this week in the Outlaws. Good luck to everyone this week.

Hey 5, me running you over wasn`t intentional. I cought the ball across the middle, turned and you were there. Bro, I`m 6`3" 225. I can`t stop on a dime. It`s football people get hit sometimes. The play cost my team 15 + yards and lead to a safety.

As for us being 0-4. We are not doing the little things it takes to win. Our last 2 games could have been wins. But they weren`t. We had chances in the end to get the W`s. We have another tough test this week against Larry`s and then Arsenal next Sunday. And 1 or 2 after that.

I will say this. Even though we`ve had a tough run so far I`m pround of how we`ve played. There have been some bonehead plays along the way which have been addressed. We have gotten better each week and as long as we continue to improve we`ll be fine this season and in the future.

Good game PS.
