  • The Tower of Power Week 8

    AC Conference
    1) Anchorage Lynx – California knew exactly who they were and they still got their ass beat. Yes, we’ll go ahead and crown their asses right now too…
    2) St. Louis Cardinals – Still no good wins outside of Houston, but what do you expect playing the AC South and AC North?
    3) Hartford Grizzlies – Can the Grizzlies maintain the pressure on Norfolk by beating Portland this week.
    4) Houston Renegades – Their win over Cleveland was much closer than the score indicated. Cleveland turned the ball over twice inside their 10 with under two minutes to go. Houston turned that into 14 points. Were they running up the score with less than a minute to go and up by 10?
    5) Albuquerque Matadors – Convincing win against Norfolk this last week , will they cool off over their bye week?
    6) Norfolk Vipers – Nurse, we’re losing the patient….
    7) Iowa City Snipe Hunters – They move ahead of the Outlaws based upon their win this week and the fact that they have some standards. Their losses come to teams with at least 2 wins!
    8) Wichita Outlaws – Here’s a hint guys, if you guys can beat the 2nd best team in your division, its yours. By the way, the Pig Farmers just passed you up in the poll!
    9) Montreal Firebirds – What’d we tell you last week?
    10) Louisiana VooDoo – OK, they’ve improved, now you can bet ‘em if their opponent has 2 wins!
    11) Murphreesboro Mules – Now that Opie is back, expect them to do their best impersonation of the Jeffersons! Uh… Nevermind….
    12) Boston Dragons – They are here based upon their talent level and their win against the Matadors. They should be ranked higher with all their defensive talent.
    13) California Heros – They have the most talent of the one win teams, which gives them the #13 spot.
    14) Portland Seals – They finally break through against West Virginia. But, is it good form to run up the score when you’re 1-5?
    15) West Virginia Beasts – What looked like a corner was an intersection. Beasts, meet Mr. Jay Caro.
    16) Cleveland Clawz – My mama always said, if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all…

    NC Conference
    1) Newark Bulldogs – They beat the Stallions and move into the top spot in the NC. They said Picante was mild in Boston. He’s doing his best imitation of a stereo in Newark, he’s HOT!
    2) Salt Lake City Stallions – There’s no shame in losing by 5 to the Bulldogs in Newark. The only problem is that game might determine who gets homefield in the playoffs.
    3) Lawrence Phantoms – Not a great win, but everyone above them lost. Their two losses so far have both been on the road, and they were in both games.
    4) Tulsa Cows – They would have slipped more but Oakland and Columbia flubbed their chances.
    5) Oakland Owls – The plan is now at six years and counting….
    6) Columbia Fire – When you’re inside the 20 yard line, you want to score TDs, not FGs.
    7) Madison Demons – Showdown with the Power this week determines who is high on the hog in the NC North.
    8) Pittsburgh Power – They beat the Cows who drilled the Demons. Can they beat the Demons at home?
    9) Vancouver Killer Whales – They fell two spots because of what Madison and Pittsburgh did. Then again, its hard to do anything to drop two spots when you have a bye week, unless someone gets injured getting the paper…
    10) Vermont Mountaineers – Tough loss to a better team.
    11) Reno Wolfpack – Too bad their win didn’t come against the old Oakland skipper…
    12) Orlando Pirates – What have they been cooking up over the bye week?
    13) Dakota Spirit – They go from 16 to 13, but that isn’t saying much…
    14) Texas Trojans – Ahead of the Toads by virtue of their head to head matchup.
    15) Little Rock Toads – They got lucky to escape with a win…
    16) Lansing Ogres – You turned the ball over twice in your own territory. You let the Toads start close to midfield all day, yet you drive down and throw….an INT at the one…


    Combined Poll:
    1) Anchorage Lynx
    2) Newark Bulldogs

      California moving up the polls, and we haven't even played this week's games yet.


      after watching WVA's weak 6 game on the Viewer i saw some patterns, and i've already made some further tweaks to my defensive gameplan. this is gonna get messy like two fat whores fighting over the last pack of Spam.

          I'll say that it is a little unfair, you've been running the show there, what a year now? Now, if you were Jave, that's just gold...

            We beat the number 7 team and a team with a worse record that beats the number 13 team jumps over us?

              I spent the most time trying to figure the two of you out. Last week, I used the strength of wins to put you above Madison. This week Madison finally beat a team with a winning record. I looked at your losses and I like his losses better than yours. Then I went back and forth some more before I settled on the fact that HE is in first place and went with that.

              Next week this gets settled.

              If you're worried about where you are in the poll, just win baby!

                Understood about Madison, they are ahead of me in the div and beat a good team this week also, but I was talking about Iowa City Obviously the pr's are subjective, I was just wondering why you thought I was better than IWC before I beat Tulsa (#7 and now 9) by a bigger score than they beat Wichita (#13 and now 16), and worse afterwards.

                  I re-evaluate all the teams each week. So stuff like that may happen from time to time. Also, some of the big wins that teams appear to have, such as Norfolk this year, may not be as big of a deal as they were in the past. But, given their schedule, I gave those teams the benefit of the doubt.

                  Don't expect this to be a 100% logical poll. I will try to use it in cases of head to head matchups and the like. Also, don't forget you are graded down a bit for Mann going down, the Hynes rule in honor of Harrison Hynes.

                  EDIT: To clean up post.

                    Wow, 6 overall. I'll try not to lose that ranking this week, but it's a tough one at IWC.
