THE
TOP 4
|
1. |
|
How
can you not vote against the PTL's current best
team. With an overall record of 8 and 1, these guys
are the most legit superbowl contender we have to
date. They seem to be able to win even the tightest
of games, a trait that is very valuable in the post-season |
2. |
|
Don't
see that the overall record of Pappy's Crew is a
meager 4 and 2. Look at the total points. This team
is currently #1 in the PTL with a total of 724 points.
Both losses have come in very close games, and if
they can get that edge (or luck) in their upcoming
games, they are going to be very hard to beat. |
3. |
|
Suprised?
So am I. The Goo Crew is on a roll. They have won
4 games in a row to bring their record up to 6 and
2. They started out as a very weak team, and, to
everyone's suprise beat a very tough Raleigh Lightning
in a ghost game this week. This might be the south's
most legit chance in the post-season. |
4.
|
|
They
Won it in 2005. Can they do it again in 06? The
Mtnears have been winning their way through the
weeks, and just recently bit their first loss bullet.
If they can re-find their scoring machines, they
should be able to pump up their score and take that
"luck" with them the rest of the season. |
The
Second Tier
|
5. |
|
The
lightning started off very strong, and just recently
have begun to sputter. A loss in week 6 by the Goo
Crew probably knocked them back down into the second
tier, but you can never count Pat's team out for
the count. |
6. |
|
It's
really hard not to be biased towards the Jurocks.
With three weeks of scores above 100, and two of
those scores above 120, they are a force to be reckoned
with. Unfortunately they seem to have caught the
"unlucky" bug with losses to the Mtnears
and Hanso FC. With the league's easiest schedule
they should be stomping through the competition,
but haven't found their edge yet. |
7. |
|
The
Lone Rangers have found a way to win against the
South. If only they could win against the North.
Consistency is keeping this team from rising through
the ranks as they have scored a weekly total from
39.2 all the way up to 106. |
8.
|
|
As
much as I hate to admit it, the Booty Bay Basher's
draft strategy might have worked. Drafting most
of the Dallas Cowboys have given them the edge in
several games. When Dallas plays even mediocre,
they win. But, the downside is, when Dallas plays
poorly, Booty Bay Loses. |
9.
|
|
The
Jagermeisters are finding a way to win. With three
weeks above 100 in points, and two of those weeks
in the last two, they are becoming an immovable
force. The only thing holding them back would be
their #2 hardest schedule in the South, and #2 hardest
schedule in the PTL. If they can find their way
around those numbers, they should be able to move
farther up in the poll. |
10. |
|
Hoy
State might be yet another sleeper team in the PTL
that will take down a few giants on their way to
the post season. Currently #9, and outside of the
playoff bracket, I can see them continuing to average
their 92 points per game and winning more close
matches. |
The
Muddled Middle
|
11. |
|
One
of the last remaining teams above .500 that doesn't
make the top 10. But when you've only scored one
game above 100 points, you can't expect to win too
many PTL contests. |
12. |
|
Although
ranked 3rd in the North, the Inferno has an overall
record of 4 and 5. This losing record puts a pretty
big black mark on the team and keeps them from the
top 10. When they are able to start winning games
versus the South, they might be able to move up. |
13. |
|
The
Crusaders are the game's best worst team. They have
scored above 100 points 5 times!!! Yet they still
have a 5 and 4 overall record. Unless they regain
that "luck" component soon, they will
start to slide down that North Division ranking. |
14. |
|
When
the Eagles win, so do the Dukes. With McNabb losing
his star receiver Stallworth, the Dukes have been
hurting. |
15. |
|
Two
games of 127 and 131 repectively have helped move
the Sabers up from the bottom of the pile. If they
can continue to make these types of scores, they
might be able to start winning more games. |
16. |
|
Can
the Lampshades buy a break? With scoring all over
the place, they haven't been able to become consistent
in 2006. Unless they can get some of thier "electricity"
back, they will continue to wallow in losses. |
17. |
|
Top
4 Team in the South? A team that finally unseated
the Mtnears!? Not really. If it's any indication,
the Culture Club, at one point, changed their names
in disgust on how the season was going. After drafting
most of the Chicago defense, their wins will have
to come from the windy city's ability to do anything. |
18. |
|
The
Dogs are in for a hard season. Only at .500 (4-4),
they have a long hill to climb to get back into
the playoff mix. Dan has always been a good coach,
so they aren't written off just yet, they just have
a lot to do. |
19. |
|
Hanso
FC has just knocked off the Jurocks. They did this
by scoring over 100 points for the first time this
year. Unless they can continue this trend, they
will keep falling back in the PTL South. |
| 20. |
 |
The Bigmaxers don't
seem to know what they want. One week they score 117
and another they score 49.1. You never know what to
expect out of this team, and in the end, that uncertainty
will ultimately give them a losing record. |
| 21. |
 |
The Devils have been
lucky... very lucky. Because of this they have been
able to scrape together a 4 and 4 season. With scores
averaging under 70 points, they will probably make
their way towards the bottom of this ranking sooner
than later. |
| 22. |
 |
Have the All-Clarance
Team finally come to life? The week 6 game had them
almost winning against a very strong PT Bruisers.
If they can keep up their 100 point scoring, they
can make their way up the ladder very quickly. |
The
Bottom 4
|
23. |
|
Mosul
has an overall record of 3 and 4. Their scores of
132 and 130, however, do put a little bit of shine
on this little team. Unfortunately, even with a
score of 130, they still weren't able to pull out
a win. Unlucky from the start, they continue to
wallow. |
24. |
|
Still
the coolest logo in the PTL, the RoidRage have done
nothing. Unless they do something very soon they
will continue to be the lowest North Division team
on this poll. |
25. |
|
Once
upon a time the Leviathans ran deep into the 2005
Playoffs. Then they got stuck and haven't found
their way back yet. |
26. |
|
The
Revolution haven't made a roster move, or fixed
their bye week players in weeks. They might as well
be considered a Ghost Team. |

As
we near the end of the regular season I thought it would
be nice to post the Vegter Poll. This is an "opinionated"
poll on playoff rankings & projections, as well as a
poll for those teams yearning for their chance at a post-season
bid.
