Entry #: 4361942
Just cleaning up the thread a bit as I've been reading about the 2026 Power Rankings in a 2025 thread.

Looks like Smash and Baseline have picked up 10 new players each as they've been ranked #1 by fellow thread posters.

If Ralph Ciancio Homes can stay healthy and have people show up consistently, they're my lock for #2. I've also heard they picked up some new players but not a full roster overhaul like Smash and Baseline.

Hey Barry Bonds

Generally, I don't like talking about teams we're all supposedly chasing. Don't need to give them more attention as I don't really care to. But since you care so much, I got them at #3 (or #4 if the #s really bother you). Their new adds don't make up for what they're losing

1A - Baseline
1B - Smash
2 - RC Homes
3 - Gregory

Let's see if I've angered the beast...or maybe at least got their interest...

However, I too am optimistic one of the up and coming teams can dethrone the big red machine. I hope Smash, Baseline, McCalmont, and the young whippersnapper sluggernaut boys do not let me down once again.

Surprises can act as a spotlight. They draw our attention to what we value, where we may feel exposed, and what deserves protection. The key is standing on solid ground, supported by thoughtful decisions and steady habits, where surprises are far less likely to knock you off balance. Hence we chat, read and try to comprehend what other teams have done in the offseason.

So forecast and predict all spring, May is around the corner.

I love that we get to write these prognostications in March, we need to scroll back in September and read out the Kings of Predications. Here we go!

Too much love for Ralph Ciancio Homes, they are average.
Baseline Sports will do damage in the regular season but then fall apart in September.
McCalmont Financial and Smash Bros are too young to win consistently.
Symmetry Physio and Boston Pizza will take large steps in gameplay.
Gregory Designs and Slugenaughts will play in the finals.

Eveyone other team will remain the same as the 2025 season.

In the 2025 season, the competitive landscape of the league demonstrated significant parity. Notably:

- Only two teams achieved more than 20 wins.
- Four teams finished the season with fewer than 10 wins.
- A mere 10 points differentiated a concerning group of 10 teams in the standings.
- Additionally, seven teams registered over 10 wins.

These statistics highlight the balance and unpredictability present in the league.

I concur with the final statement in the post above, but I'm confident that a B team will dominate and win it all this year.

Hey Koolll8

How do you arrive at the Greg/McCal chsmpionship game?

I would bet the house that your assessment is far from reality.

The School will be fine dining on everyone on the way to the ship. Best on that.

Has Team School truly faced any formidable opponents? The answer is a resounding no.

They are likely to be overwhelmed by the powerful performances of teams like Gregory, Smash, and Baseline. The upcoming matches could prove to be a tough challenge for them, and it's hard to see how they will hold their ground against such strong competition.

Not sure about the School team. In our division, we might have the same type of team because Team Paul love seriously lacks leadership and only have maybe two good players.

Team School is the class of the league, barely losing out to the former mighty Gregory.

You are very naive, lacking experience and understanding of the complexities involved.
