| 1. Trojans- Coming off winning the hartford tournament pretty easily look to be the favorite if everyone shows or at least Sam. The Trojans are loaded at the skill positions and the line looks to be improved. No Sam drops them down about 2-3 spots.
2. Knights- Welcome back. I am going off of what everyone says about Ish being the master recruiter and assuming they will have all of their weapons plus new ones ( maybe some warriors). Ish is back at qb, aka Tony Romo with chips. He is a good qb who doesn't get the credit he deserves.. Week 1 should be interesting vs new look Chargers.
3. Chargers- The Chargers and TOB both had a solid core of smart football players. Put together they should be a good match. I expect them to have success. This may be the chance for Kerry to get recognized as a top qb if he can lead this team to a championship. Having Chris and Shank around doesn't hurt either.
4. Canes- The Canes are one of the few teams coming back with pretty much the same roster from the spring. The big difference is those faces look to be happy from what I have seen and heard. They look to have built some chemistry. Nows the time for Justin's crew to break through.
5. Wolverines- If rumors are true this team could be really dangerous. They will be led by qb Rob Saunders and new addition Stevie Dunbar. These 2 have had success together before. I expect to see some Hawks, Saints , and possibly ex Spartans on this team.
6. Chiefs- I gave the Chiefs the nod barely over the Broncos. They improved throughout the spring even upsetting the Chargers. The biggest difference was after they made a change at Qb. They do have athletes, so if the line can hold up they could be a threat.
7. Broncos- Can the open champs make the jump to contender or at least playoff team in the fall. Broncos are a well run team that plays hard. But there are a lot of questions that need to be answered for them to make the next step and word is they will be without their top pass rusher d end Steve.
8. Spartans- the Spartans started strong in the fall and faded badly late. Qb Phil Cushon is solid but who knows what's left from last years team. If they still have Tuck, KT, and Tommy they could still fight for the last playoff spot. If not .......
9. Rams- I have heard that they have some good players but I have to take a wait and see approach especially after the Killa Hill disaster.
Prediction- Canes over Trojans
Chargers over Knights
Rematch of last springs Bpt championship. I will let you know who wins after Sunday's games.

| Sam should be back by playoffs. Trojans over Knights in the chip. Chargers have too many new pieces and the Southside will do the Canes in again. Last 2 playoff spots go to broncos and Chiefs.

| Rams are no different from Killa Hill, their center is soft, when they scrimmaged the Assassins, they had 1-2 seconds top before QB was running, if they come fully loaded, maybe the game will be interesting but unfortunately, still 0-9 season for them, basically they playing for fun, just hope they dnt quit like Killa Hill did

| Go by that scrimmage if you want to. Bring some cash to the game and make some easy money since we are no good.

| Let's not start talking about a scrimmage that happened on a weekend where none of our guys were around. We had an 18 year old kid playin tackle. Pretty sure he won't be on our roster guys. I played the other tackle when guys got hurt.
When the whole squad is here, you know we'll be alright. The Hawks/Wolverines merger was supposed to be some big news too. We beat the Wolverines in week 1 with a brand new team and we still were at about half strength( I wasn't even there but I just had my twin brother step in and score). I don't even think the Wolverines scored on offense?
So let's stop with the stupid predictions of 0-9 seasons and talk about betting money on games. When our guys show up, we'll be competitive even for a first year team.
Trust me, you killa hill/assassin guys had a lot to say when we played for money in new britain and I scored 3 times before you guys had your shoes tied tight. I think we hung 56 on u but it was hard to keep track of all the guys scoring. We didn't say shit either. Just took the money and went home. So let's not use this as a forum to talk about something that you have no business talking about. Most of our guys were all league, close to it or have played on other teams in this league in the past and we don't need to run mouth about how good we are but we're not here to just run around and get our heads kicked in.
Appreciatet the hate though. We're 1-0 now and we'll be workin hard to get another win next time we play.

| Notice that I didn't say anything about the Knights(ran with em and love those guys) or the Chargers(could've ran with em but started my own team but love those guys too)
I just adressed your comments about playing for money because you know how that ended and you're still talking and not even writing your name. I'm just glad that I make more plays than excuses.
Good luck to you guys though. You're right too. We'll have our hands full with some of the top ranked teams in CT. That's why you show up though.

| The rams have 5 former knights running for them that would start for us right now. On top of that i see some old bristol heads that can ball. They will be organized and disciplined enough not to blow games they are supposed to win. They will be a tough out if they bring the team they had on sunday. Alot of work to do but the pieces that will take them a long way if they stick together. I was impressed with what I saw.

| Whoever you are, I posted about money the day before the game. That wasn't me talking after we won. We are that good and you haven't even seen us at full strength. Don't be fooled by the score. We controlled that game from the openibg kick. For our scores we marched right down the field on long drives and you could do nothing about it. You got back in the game on a return TD. We'll see you again if you make the playoffs and money talks so bring it to the field.

| Do you know how many bottom feeder teams have come on this shit and said YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW US, WAIT TIL WE AT FULL STRENGTH!
Then they are the lowest ranked team in the league....
You are only as good as the men who show up to back you.
Til then, run with the lumps and a chip on your shoulder and PROVE don't talk.

| The difference is, that is an excuse when they lose. We won.
We don't need to talk shit. Just string facts. We know where we stand. Ofcourse after only our first game together we are not on the level if the Knights or Trojans. But we will get there. Fact is, we know we are at least 4th in this league before even playing a down. And that's the real rankings.

| We are new to this league as a team. But I am not new. I know these teams well.
We're not better than anyone. Keep us at the bottom of the rankings.

| and the madness begins. I think this is going to be one of the best seasons yet. Just to keep it real. Every team has talent. Merged together or not. I enjoy the games more than this message board.

| Ish just says that shit because he knows that Bristol is better than Southington in literally everything. He learned that lesson when I locked shit down my senior year but he never talks about that. I caught as many passes from your qb as you did that day but I still love you kid. You got real heart.
We picked those colors because their fresh as hell and no one would pick maroon over blue. Actually, they were supposed to be 99' Rams colors but the yellow on each part would've cost a fortune my guy told me so we had to lay up for these ones.
Thanks dad.
