USA Pro League, the AAA of the WPL this is where the real competition at the Pro Level starts! Nine new teams will be joining the USAPL this season with one return team from the WPL. For those of you that haven't looked, this is what the League looks like:

Just for reference on how this turned out last season in AAA when I did it; here's my Season 12 thread: http://goallineblitz.com/game/forum_thread.pl?thread_id=3310282

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

It will be a little different. I feel like the large team turnover makes the league a little easier, but still we are far and away the 2nd toughest league in GLB. I do look forward to seeing what all the newbie's have to offer, and which ones can separate themselves from the pack. Regardless, it should be a fun year.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

I'd say the Colts. Superstar QB, great passing game, dynamic HBs who can both run and catch out of the backfield. On defense I think we are perhaps a little bigger and much better at stopping the run than Indy, but we do still have some great athletic big men up front, which is what the tampa-2 is all about.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Its always fun to play the teams you have history and some back-and-forth with. The Marauders, Nighthawks, and Kampers all should be fun games with some history. To any of the newcomers that can seperate themselves early, I look forward to those games as well.

What teams are you worried about playing?

Why would I be worried?

Who's your star player(s)?

Thx for making a question designed to have me piss off and alienate like 90% of my team, lol.

I think Darrel Williams is on the list of stars. #1 passer in USAPro last season, and overall he's just fantastic to watch and allows our offense to roll very smoothly. Of our receiving core, Hines Headly in his first year as a Hedgehog separated himself as a monster of a receiver. The rest of our WR core is insane as well of course, so perhaps Darrel is just a system QB afterall . It does all start with the anti-attention big men up front of course, and while Devon Wolfe may not lead the league in rushing, he is definitely another huge weapon back there.

On defense it really is tough to say. My own "I love offense" bias aside, a defense really is such a team oriented unit, that picking out individuals is tough. Our DE Mike Leger definitely has produced at an extremely high level last season, and out pair of DTs returning (Tommie Bear Harris and McClinton James) is probably the best pair in Pro.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

I'm extremely excited about all of them tbh, as we have a ton of new talent coming in. For the sake of you not cutting my response, I'll stick to two offense and two defense...

On O, HB Steven "The Ram" Jackson and WR Hardy Ketchum both look to make a huge impact on an offense fused with playmakers. Steven is likely the best built L54 HB in the game, and the stuff he does out there might actually convince me to run once or twice this season. And Hardy has historically been extremely productive in this game's higher leagues (tearing it up in APL last season). With our top 4 WRs from last year returning, it'll be exciting to see Hardy out there finding his niche and truly giving us a full core of all-star receivers.

On D, FS Aly Sheba and CB Dan Duger both look to make huge impacts. Aly played on the Cubes last year, and despite the ugly season he shined as one of their top defenders. As for Dugar... well anytime you can pick up a defender with 115 career INTs, you are in good shape. I really feel like both of these guys will bring a ton to our pass D, though obviously there are a ton of great players I haven't mentioned.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

For the first time in USA Pro, I'm looking at the playoffs as a given, and anything less than a championship will be seen as a disappointment. Its odd to be in this spot, as this is the first season in Hedgehogs history where we've gone into a season as the favorites or near favorites to win a conference. The pressure it up, the talent is there, so lets go get that trophy. It is also worth noting that we had 0 mentors on our team last season but have 6 of those bad boys for S13.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

S10 we went 4-12 in USAPro. S12 we went 15-1. Obviously it couldn't have been done without those great agents who decided to stick around, along with the crazy bastards who picked a 4-12 team over a spot in the world league (what a bunch of idiots amirite?). It is an example of not only the A+ agents who are a member of the Hedgehogs, but also of the potential of bad teams up here to turn it around and become contenders once again. I understand that a lot of teams gut for a lot of different reasons, but hopefully if you are gutting due to losing, this gives your team some hope since a comeback can be done.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Being new in the league we some familiar faces like Austin, Houston and Tallahassee. We did not expect to be promoted because of our early exit from the playoffs but are happy to be at this level now. I am interested to see what teams do to rebuild this season or if they just return all the declining players.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

It really pisses me off to say this but probably the Dallas Cowboys. We have consistently dominated the regular seasons but always seem to come up just short in the playoffs. For the success this team has had in it's ascent from BBB to now PRO we have not gotten any championship trophy's to show for our hard work.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Houston Toros, we have always had a very FRIENDLY rivalry with that team and always enjoy the mental battle we have to go through to compete with them.

What teams are you worried about playing?

Obviously Chicago and Washington. Their reputations alone make me worried about playing them but the team that worries me the most is the Bortsville Mystery Nerf, they are a slow build team that should really be hitting their stride this season.

Who's your star player(s)?

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=27814 Rod Tidwell, Rod was 2nd in conference in receiving yards and 1st in TD's and we run an incredibly balanced offense. We are not the type of team that comes out in 5 wide and passes every down so what Rod accomplished last season was very impressive.

http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=261643 Two time MVP deserves to be respected.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Lots, too many to list but the retirement bulldozer did not affect us.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

Have not even begun to scout other teams but think we should competitive and hope to have a home playoff game or two.

Owned by: thehazyone
GMs: MoJames


How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

It's easily the most turnover I've ever seen in USAPL. I really have no clue what to make of any of the teams, including the veteran teams since so many of them overhauled their rosters.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Detroit Lions - young and full of talent, but no shot at winning a game unless we're playing the Cleveland Browns.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Any team that guts before we play them. K thx.

What teams are you worried about playing?

lol, honestly, I'm not worried abut playing any team. I'm fully aware of what my teams capabilities are so there is really no pressure on the team to do well.

Who's your star player(s)?

Probably this guy... at least this season: http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=1272221

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Actually the whole team is filled with new recruits and I'm excited about them all but I think season 14 will show these player's capabilities more than season 13.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

1-15 if DLDT stays in USAPL, 0-16 if they don't. We'll keep it close with a number of teams though, having 40 mentored players will help a little.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

lolwest, oh wait, I'm in the West. err loleast?

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

WIDE OPEN!!! Over 15,000 players retiring in the next 2 seasons - it will become standard MO for all teams to scramble like this during the offseason. Either roll with it or you die.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Flyin E: 9 playoff appearances in 12 seasons - 3 trophies...We have a winning tradition that dates back to our first season. We most often take the role of the gritty underdog - not the biggest or the best, but we'll kick your azz when least expected.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Anyone above us in the JPJN rankings - watchout! (jon if you could put us in at last place...we do well as an underdog ) WE have a few that need some blue suede on their azzes!

What teams are you worried about playing?

Anyone with a full roster will be a fight...looking forward to the FIGHT!

Who's your star player(s)?

Our defense was #1 rank in the USA AAA2 last season, Our QB won the Offensive MVP Award, We beat the #1 seed in the conf semis...we're all team here but we do have some special players...each game it's a new face on the POTG board!

Any new recruits you're excited about?

GMS: Rabideasterbunny, Monkeyman, randey, jpjn94, Brutus Buckeye, stiffarm Steve, Stizz, Bevo53....excited to have these guys on the team!

How do you think you're team will do this season?

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Scoring on 'TD Girl' in our endzone is nearly impossible!

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Even with the big turnover from teams past, I feel fantastic about USAPL. It's been a long time coming for the Nerf. Starting out at BBB and grinding through the 10+lvl difference in our competition makes our finally arriving in the PRO's really sweet.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Probably the Titans. We run hard, play smart defense, started off slow, but are on a hot streak

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

The American Freedom. We've had a long time rivalry with them, but have been on the opposite sides of the fence in terms of Conferences. If we meet them, then it means we've both accomplished what we set out to do.

What teams are you worried about playing?

The GROWL. They always give us trouble

Who's your star player(s)?

The whole team's a star really. Slow built for just this opportunity to make a splash in the Pro's. But if there was a named player that gets the attention it would be--

The top rusher in AAA the last 2 seasons. Bort Baggins http://goallineblitz.com/game/player_awards.pl?player_id=798533

The agent seems to know his way around the RB making kitchen.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

We've brought in a nice complimentary back to Baggins
Elvis Jr. http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=731422

How do you think you're team will do this season?

Other than a few squeakers, we look forward to playing somebody from the east in the 4th playoff game.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Just looking for some good games.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

We have a lot of new teams, and every season we lose one more to the World League. The league certainly doesn't have the same feel anymore.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Probably the team we share a state with. There have been a few times we have started out strong and didn't finish out the season well. Hopefully this will finally be the season for both us and the team I compared us to.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Monmouth Evil Monkeys, New Jersey Blaze, Honolulu Hurricane Warriors, Nashville Hounds, Lincoln Navigators, George Street, Alpine Golfers.

Oh dang, you meant in the USA Pro. Honestly, I look forward to every game this season.

What teams are you worried about playing?

None, I believe we can beat them all. The Hedgehogs, KKAR, Longhorns, and Nighthawks should be fun games. I don't know much about the new teams

Who's your star player(s)?

We turned a huge portion of our roster over. But this is an easy one.

JON BOSTIC.

Had to do that for raidersrock. But we have a lot of talented players and I can't point to a handful of guys this season. We have some positions that are 4-6 deep and do not have much difference between any of them.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

So far,

Dominik Peterson, Grandpa Rich, Ham Force, Line Up, The Real OG, Andrewe Greene, Cannonball Adderley, Kip Vann, Stiff End, Perikito George, Ike Atchit, Evariste Galois, Jon Bostic, Hands Gruber, Drunken Sailor, Michael Brockers', Dry Skin, Farrest Griffin, Jake Mauler, Josh Byrnes, Lane Williams3, Marcus Cromartie, Nathan Pierce, Flash Mog, Ronnie Vinson, Misunari Ishida, Adrian Davis, Zeus, Nick Even, and T Pepps.

Yes, that is right, I am excited about every single recruit.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

I believe this team is the best we have had in Minnesota. Anything less then the championship will be disappointing. And anything less then 2nd place in the West is a failure in my opinion.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Indianapolis because we are always in the playoffs. We have a nice run going and I don't think that will change this season.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Minnesota, Chicago, Washington

What teams are you worried about playing?

Not worried about playing anyone. If you don't gameplan in this league, you will lose.

Who's your star player(s)?

Megatron, Jimmy Turner, Mirage, Galvatron, Snatch Trotter

Any new recruits you're excited about?

All of them. Demarcus Jones is going to be something. I am interested in seeing how Flipper McFly and Mike Steel handle the Pros

How do you think you're team will do this season?

We are definitely a playoff team and probably a top 4 teams

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Have been to the playoffs 10 straight seasons. No matter the situation, we have been able to rise above it all. We have had seasons where we started 2-5 and then came back and finished 11-5 so we are never worried about how things start. The playoffs are what matters.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Sucks ass. A bunch of retards who "earned" their way up here by managing not to lose their first round AAA playoff games pitted against the mediocre leftover dregs of what once was a glorious league. Whoopty-doo.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

The Cincinnati Bengals. Fun-loving, likeable agents/players that genuinely enjoy everything about the game, but a front office whose levels of insanity and incompetence offend basic human dignity. Merc's pretty much Katie Blackburn, if Katie Blackburn smoked pot all day.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

I hope the Wolfpack thought that "let's pancake the Kampers 200 times in a game" shit was funny, because those bitches are gonna pay what they owe now that they average 20 levels less than us. Ah, fuck, they're still probably gonna kill us...

What teams are you worried about playing?

Now? There are plenty of teams can beat us, but I don't see anyone off the bat that's just going to roll us no matter what we do, like, say, Nashville used to.

Who's your star player(s)?

Igor Rakmanov won defensive MVP for the league last season while declining. Tough to argue with that.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Nope.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

"Your", you cretin. Pretty good. We won't go 7-9 again, I'll guarantee you that. We've got some firepower on offense, and despite our absolute cluelessness about what it takes to win at this level in most regards, Ketchikan knows how to ride an elite QB to a respectable season. How far we go past that depends on how everything else gels.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

I guess this is more for the Mighthawks than anybody else, but we would like to welcome epsilonomega (a.k.a. Rex "Sex Cannon" Grossman) back to the team after several seasons.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Well, it's different, that's for sure. It'll be interesting to see how everyone handles the decline.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

I have to say the Steelers. We are a hard hitting, defensive minded team(although you wounldn't know it from last season's performance, lol)

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

I'll say the Hedgehogs since they are apparently the favorites this season. I'd like to see how we stack up to them.

What teams are you worried about playing?

It's a game with dots, lol.....can't say I am intimidated by anyone.

Who's your star player(s)?

Hard to say right now, we have pretty much overhauled the entire team at this point.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Yep, I love our new DE - King-Pin and our HB - Smoke. We also found a terrific QB in Fai and some awesome WRs.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Well, I have been drinking a lot tonight and I'm feeling pretty good. My wife just bought a new teddy and heels, so I will be hookin that up later! And a couple snuck into the Whitehouse and managed to rub shoulders with our President, so we're pretty screwed imo.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

It's nice to see some familiar faces again, some of which we've competed with since the old BBB days where we first started with them. It's also satisfying since this is been our goal since our first season in S4, to reach the pros and we have some of our original players joining us, so it's rewarding for them too. The core of our team climbed this ladder the old fashioned way, through hard work and perseverance.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

It wouldn't matter since American Freedom represents all cities in the USA.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

In our conference, only the Louisville Nighthawks because we've got such a long standing history with them and they routinely kick our asses. In the opposing conference though, we've always had a great relationship with Bortsville Mystery Nerf.

What teams are you worried about playing?

Everyone - This is pro and namely, anyone who's beaten us in the playoffs.

Who's your star player(s)?

Let me check our retired players roster and get back to you on that one. But if you asked the team, it would have to be, hands down, DT Justa Playa, who won 3 consecutive Def. MVP awards and in a tight race, turned in a close 2nd last season in his bid for a 4th consecutive season. He'll certainly be a shoe in for our team's Ring of Honor, so it's just a matter of who gets voted in with him since only two are allowed entry per season.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Yup. You weren't expecting us to reveal anything were you? But really, our new RB Purple Jesus only because we're both major Vikings fans.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

I have no clue - we're just excited to be here.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

American Freedom has been though some very tough times in our climb to the Pros and we're not going to be willing to gut, drop and start all over again. Like Gen. George S. Patton, I don't like paying for the same real estate twice.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Who wouldn't be excited about playing in USAPL, it is every young Dot's dream.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Minnesota Vikings, my Avi say's it all

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

I always look forward to playing the Ducks. Ripcity always puts together a great team!

What teams are you worried about playing?

We've always wanted to get to USAPL. We're not taking anyone for granted and we're going to be worried about losing on any given every other day.

Who's your star player(s)?

Tough call here, every Mastermind is equally important to the team. If I had to pick a star within the stars I would go with Charles "Professor X" Xavier. He has been exceptional in our journey from BBB4 to USAPL.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Luca Mancini (TE) http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=546222 will be a huge addition to our offense, he has been in some big games in the past and adds another threat to our offense. He is another solid build that we have been lucky enough to recruit.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

Our goal from the start was to make it to USAPL, and it has been a long road. I'm hoping we can compete for a playoff spot.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

We are one of the few teams that didn't need a bunch of recruiting to fill our roster this offseason, hopefully that doesn;t come back to bite us in the ass since many teams loaded up with quality dots.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

It is an honor to be here. We will just have to see what happens and adjust if necessary.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Probably the Rams when they were the Greatest Show on Turf. We have so many weapons on offense that it is hard to defend us. Of course, our defense isn't too shabby either.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Quite a few teams really stand out to me. ***O*** is probably the biggest game circled on my calendar, but it will also be great to play teams like DDL and OTR who have been elite for awhile. We also have to get some revenge on the Fury from when we were back in AA together.

What teams are you worried about playing?

Nobody worries me. Yes, there are plenty of good teams up here, but why spend time worrying when there is game planning to do?

Who's your star player(s)?

The Grand Haven Mist are a team. We have players who step up and make plays. Some more often than others, but everyone on this team pulls their weight.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

I am really excited to bring in Blue Pill (HB) and Liquid Rush (LB). I have played against Liquid Rush many times in the past and he has burnt me more than once. It is nice to have him on my side for once. We also added a few other pieces that we think will help us out not only now, but in the future.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

With USAPL being fleshed out this offseason, anything short of playoffs would be a disappointment.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Ask me again on Day 40.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

It looks like there has been a lot of roster changes from the last season, so i'm hoping the dominant teams from season's past won't be so dominant anymore. It seems like new teams to the USAPL have struggled in their first seasons in the past; I'm hoping we won't be one of them.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

I'd have to go with the Vikings, Solid Ground game, Solid Defense and an again QB.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

We've never played in the East before so we aren't too familiar with these teams but if I had to pick someone it would be Grand Haven Mist as I would have liked to have played them last season. As for the W1 matchup, if they didn't gut it would have been D-league but since they did it would be the Wolfpack, CCIA or the Flyin Elvis.

What teams are you worried about playing?

With all the rebuilding that has been done this season, no one really worries me but i'd like to see what CCCC or ****O**** can do with a weaker roster.

Who's your star player(s)?

Our star left for the WL, someone else will have to step up this season and i'm not sure who it will be.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

SOLDIER BOI and Biff Taylor have to be our most exciting additions but they have some big shoes to fill if they want to make us forget about Rushen and Lightning

How do you think you're team will do this season?

Assuming I can finish filling our roster, i'm expecting us to fight for one of the bottom playoff spots.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

As far as I can tell we are the first team to go from USA BBB9 to USAPL and we don't have a league trophy yet....

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

This season will be the weakest season in USA Pro history. However, where the old fall the new take over and can rise to the top. There will be plenty of chances for teams to step up and prove they can become one of the elite teams.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Saints, gotta be the Saints. We have playmakers on defense and even though we tend to give up yards we feed off big plays on defense and on offense have so many weapons and different ways to beat the defense.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

OFG for sure. We have a decent rivalry working and tbh RL has been crazy so I haven't even looked at the other teams in the division.

What teams are you worried about playing?

OFG is a proven winner and we have a history between our teams. Again, haven't looked at the teams enough to answer this fully.

Who's your star player(s)?

We don't really have one just yet. This team is pretty much brand new from top to bottom. We'll see who steps up but there is certainly hype around Shawn Sanders and the entire secondary.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

We got a couple new WRs that I am excited to see how they fit in our offense.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

I think we'll make the playoffs, after that all bets are off since this is a new team with major chemistry problems.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

This is going to be a lot of fun this season and we'll still beat DDL by 100 points.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Though its likely not going to be like the USAPL of old i think it will be very competitive still. There's a lot of great owners and agents involved with the teams here who understand how to play the game and have the connections to allow them to fill their rosters.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Tough question. Dallas perhaps? Reason being is I've ran my mouth so much in the past that a lot of people HATE Czech Yourself as well as myself. *tear*

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

That's easy! We would LOVE to play the western conference champion on the last day of the season BUT since that's very unlikely it will be fun to TRY and beat American Freedom. I currently have 6 seven day bans in my alert box from Norsemanvike and Jed so it would be nice to give back a little

What teams are you worried about playing?

I don't have any worries this season. We have already set our goal to just make the playoffs. There's a lot of good looking teams here with GM's who know what their doing so that will be a huge accomplishment for us as out leveled as we are. I can see us making it and i can also see us failing too. We beat 9 teams last season who had us on average by 10+ levels but its likely that it will be a lot tougher here to pull that feat off.

Who's your star player(s)?

We actually don't have a star player. Some players get more stats of course but we all put in the work to make it happen.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

We haven't really had to recruit though we did bring in 2 players. (a WR and a CB to get a 25% mentor chain going.)
http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=328365
http://goallineblitz.com/game/player.pl?player_id=794990

How do you think you're team will do this season?

I kind of hinted to it above. It would be a let down if we don't make playoffs. But at the same time i understand that the teams here are great teams and that we have a ways to go to be really competitive here. We will try though to keep the fun we've been having after the past 5 seasons going.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Sithas is more of a douchebag than i am tbh. Ballerrific likes men.
You can probably add to the story that the Steelers are garbage too!
Go Dallas!

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Not sure. I liked the sim last season. Seems like some of the problems with GLB have been worked out. Last season we went ahead with young guys at some positions and got left at the altar by someone who was supposed to join, forcing us to roll with way too many season 1 non-optimal, declining builds. We should be better positioned this season to make our run at WL. I don't know any of the new teams, but hopefully they can put up a challenge or it will be CCCC and ***O*** fighting it out for the top spot.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Baltimore Ravens I guess. Through 12 seasons we have mostly relied on our defense and running game. We have probably had more success than the Ravens though. 6 seasons in US Pro, we have always made it to the 2nd round of the playoffs, three times to the conference championship.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Just hoping GLB remains fun.

What teams are you worried about playing?

None really. Hard to tell how young some of the top teams from last year got, or what impact their changes will have. A lot of low chem in the league right now. Penguins will be tough in the regular season for sure, but it looks like they will be facing about a 4% decline across the board by the time the playoffs start, which could slow them down.

Who's your star player(s)?

Hulk Blazing is returning from the Navs, so he has to be up there. We are pretty solid but unspectacular across the board on defense.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

HULK FLING ROCK is riding off in the sunset. LJS is probably old, but we don't know when he was born. It is suspected it was back in the early 1700s off of the coast of what is now Haiti. We got a new starting QB in Super Mario. He platooned with another QB last season while winning APL for DD.

HBs: HULK BLAZING, the hero of Season 9 USAPro, comes back after a 1 year collusion deal with Lincoln. We also brought in Thomas Newman who will juke you out of your foreskin.

WRs: Nico Helderam is thankfully over from The Woodys, San Fran will bash you to pieces, and Sonic is going to do something, we just don't know yet.

OL: We got a bunch of good OL, but no one cares about them because they are overweight, and our society punishes people that do not look perfect. It's a shame.

Defense: We kept the defense pretty static. Maik Jeaunz is gone from SS, and Linus Pauling will find out if he's worth a damn - probably not, considering the agent. We will also be very weak at FS (check the agent). Our LBs are going to be improved from last season: HULK also donated a great MLB to the cause to try to replace Crushbone and Bednarik. Septimus and Brian Queen are in their prime. J the Weave is over from Seychelles. Boo Lander is also going to surprise some people this season, despite his youth. We think it'll work out just fine.

And most notably, is that kalkmanc is going to run our offense. This isn't necessarily an upgrade from last season, since Duff did the offense last season, but if you consider the likelihood that phthalatemagic would have to go back and be in charge of the OAI for S12, we would have been in deep shit.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

I think we will challenge to enter the WL. We should be playing in the conference championship and from there it is probably a coin flip.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

Anyone want to join ***O***, send me a PM!
It looks like there are about 200 season 1 players in US Pro still. Gonna be interesting to see if any of these players make it to the playoffs facing a potential +4-8% decline.

Owned by: Knightman
GMs: Moo45


How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

We've definitely taken a turn downward as many of the long term elite franchises that used to be the core of USA Pro have gutted or closed up shop. We're now essentially just the better teams from AAA thrown together rather than AAA teams having to meet a higher challenge. OTOH, USA AAA has been the cream of the AAA crop, so assuming teams in other Pro leagues also were running into the problems with aging players, we may still be the best Pro League in GLB--it's just not as clearly a slam dunk as it was before.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

Style of play: probably the Patriots or the Colts. We LOVE to throw the ball!
Coaching: has always been the downfall of this team. What Matt Millen was to GM's is what I am to coaching. My team succeeds DESPITE me, which is unfortunate. If we had some decent hard core coaches, we'd be dangerous!

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

I always look forward to playing my old BBB#7 comrades, the Louisville Baby Kittens. Also, the South Otto guys always seem to be one step ahead of me when we play. I can always count on them to have an outstanding game plan against us and I very much respect their organization. I was surprised that the Red Bank Thundercats didn't make it up here. They were a perennially strong team for many seasons and I was hoping to renew that rivalry this season..

What teams are you worried about playing?

CCCC always kicks our asses. But honestly, this season I'm not worried about anyone since I'm going to be taking the season off. We'll just take our lumps and evaluate the lay of the land before Season 14.

Who's your star player(s)?

Probably our QB, Kenny Chandler. Has won Offensive MVP two seasons in a row (AAA#1 and Pro last season), shattered the All Time USA Pro single season passing yardage record by nearly 1000 yards last season. Hey, like I said, we like to pass.

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Nope. Not recruiting. Wouldn't be fair since I'm not going to be putting much work into the team.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

We'll win a few, but won't be a factor for the playoffs.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

We were THIS close to folding, but I just couldn't bring myself to click the "Sell" button, so I'm going to see how I feel after this season. If I feel the competitive juices flowing again, and if Bort hasn't made the game even MORE convoluted and time consuming (considering that I'm a one man administration--Owner, Scout, Financial Officer, Coach, OC, DC, ST, Recruiter all in one---it takes a LOT of time for a team at this level!) then I'll be back. If not, it'll be "Sayonara Purple Penguins!"

I was unsure if I was going to make it up here or not, we lost in the Conference Finals to the Masterminds

I would have to say our QB, Tall Tequila

Yes, our HB Rickey Watters, CB's Judge Joseph Dredd and Arizona Williams to name a few. We had to do a lot of recruiting this offseason.

How do you feel about the USAPL this season?

Lots of new faces, some familiar...some not, and tons of turnover on many of the returning teams. It's definitely going to be an interesting season.

If your team was in the NFL, what team would they be and why?

I guess the expected answer is the Titans seeing the core of the team is Titans fans. At many times through our existence it really has seemed we've fit that billing, though.

Are there any teams you look forward to playing this season?

Are there any CPU or gutted teams in the league this year? Seriously, the Mist, Steel Riders, and Lions all came from the AAA2 tree so those should be fun matchups.

What teams are you worried about playing?

Any team that isn't CPU or gutted? Again, I jest. Should be a very competitive season. Not worried about any team. Our first goal is to get a home playoff game...second goal is to make the playoffs...third goal is to avoid relegation. I'm most worried about failing at all three.

Who's your star player(s)?

We've had so much turnover since the end of season 12, it's hard to identify our star players. QB Cade Beckum, HB Contra Konami, and WR Trey LaRenz will look to lead the way offensively. Probably the closest we have to "star power".

Any new recruits you're excited about?

Do I have to single a one? Lots of great players have already committed to use and we're looking for more. I'm excited about them all.

How do you think you're team will do this season?

Like I said before, our goals are (in order) get a home playoff game, make the playoffs, avoid relegation. With the number of new teams around, it's hard to predict much.

Any thing else I can add to the story?

We're in USA Pro until we win our lose our way out or I tire of the game. Fury is in it for the long haul.

Could this be the start of bringing the fun back to US Pro? A lot of teams that were here last season were just mailing it in. I like it.

I think the Ducks in the East are a new team, unless it is an old team with name changed.

jp is the best imo.

Wise has been getting really high lately.

I dunno man..this doesn't seem right at all.

Kampers are going to be a force this season... NWNH's are in rebuild mode/chem hell..as are a few other teams...
