Here's what my gut tells me. No analysis, no research to back it up. I call it the Modified Turk Method... modified because I don't post 3 paragraphs for each decision but to keep it as pure as possible, I pulled the picks straight outta my a**.
Montana 1 - Montana Blaze 2 - Great Falls Gladiators 3 - Billings Bullets 4 - Laurel Loco Express
We AAA players have no concern for the likes of the AA peasants. Therefore, I will not waste my precious time placing them into order of least to leastest good.

''We AAA players have no concern for the likes of the AA peasants. Therefore, I will not waste my precious time placing them into order of least to leastest good.''
We did beat u guys last year darrell, pretty good for some peasants.
1 - Mustangs - The Mustangs were already a quality team and then you add the guys from the Vikings. Should walk through most the AA with no problems.
2 - Snow Devils - Probably the best defense in the AA this year. I worry about the O but with less competition they should be fine unless they struggle with travel.
3 - Diggers - Another decent team. I've heard of some good things coming for these guys and if they are true they could end higher.
4 - Oilers - Very tough defense. Solid Offense. Really 2 - 4 could easily all be interchangeable with each other. More Parity because of league structure.
5 - Warriors - Another solid defense and I've been told they have improved the offense. Until we see them travel good it is hard to say they move up.
6 - Vipers - Who ever knows with the Vipers. I could see them ending up anyplace on here. They have the talent to be 1 but could also underachieve to here.
7 - Lancers - I don't know anything really about the last two but put the Lancers ahead because I have lost to Tom Bennett a bunch of times so he gets the spot.
8 - Guardians - All I know about these guys is the Owners have the exact opposite hair cuts.
I'm told my opinion matters, I still call shenanigans on that but here's what I think will play out.
Montana- Montana Blaze Great Falls Gladiators Laurel Loco Express Billings Bullets
I give the nod to the Blaze based off the potential that they have put together a roster of the Blaze of old and that would put a veteran QB in Jurasuck with a very formidable defense. Great Falls loses A LOT of talent to the Blaze and they just aren't that good without them. I put the Express over the Bullets for one reason, they are not weekend warriors. They are minor league football players! GTFOH with that nonsense.
Idaho- Idaho Matadors Boise Generals Magic Valley Bulldawgs Arco Anarchy
Now... The Generals jump into the 1 spot IF they get guys like Jocko and company back. Cam Hall lives in Florida and I hear they lost their QB from last year. I like the Matadors to take the top spot if that doesn't happen. Magic Valley will never prosper because of "thatguy". Nobody knows him and nobody needs to. Arco is stuck out in BFE of Idaho in this group and will struggle with some longer travel but could benefit from easier schedule.
Rebels gonna be tough as always. BThompson got them boys working out all winter and I think they will add some new talent to improve off last season. Revolution under new management! And it won't make a difference as long as they realize that drastic change could hurt them, I think they know that and will remain in the "top 4" of the league. Cobras and Mudd Ducks really are a toss up. I saw the Cobras practicing last week and the need a QB. Could surprise some people tho so shouldn't sleep on them. Ducks are Ducks... Have only lost talent and gained none. They won't be any good.
Stealth are the champs, they've earned the 1 spot nod here. BUT... If teams realize how dangerous Sam Thomas is and focus on shutting him down, they don't have a WR that can carry the load. IK looking for a big year, all depends on who shows up for that massive OL. Does their defense have Walker, Harold and company? If not... They are just the team that won 2 regular season games. The Shock lost JK at QB. I could stop there. I like what I see in Wager so far. Going to be a growing process for him and the whole squad to get where they want to be. The Sting shouldn't be slept on but they have Turkleton on their roster, they lose forever with that. Kidding, he didn't even register a stat last year. They will be tough, can guys around Brad make enough plays and help him enough to succeed? That is what will make the difference. Logan Stampede will be mediocre *Richard Sherman voice*. That is all.
Take it for what it's worth and deal with it. I played relatively nice. And no, I won't comment on A teams. Cause they aren't worth my time and effort. Is what it is.
Oh ok everyone line dancing on this thread but was just ready to bust some heads "to the white meat" a week ago....act like hoodlums on my thread, did I just get #shermanated...
