No chance that the Dak/Hutch trade can be processed for this, is there? It would be far more interesting for me to watch the team when it more closely resembles my current. (If not, no problem.)

Week 4 Power Rankings:


1. Rio de Janeiro Pirates (3-0, LW:2) - Great teams find a way but man was that a lucky ending on both sides of the ball and special teams. With Hamilton losing, the Pirates claim the top spot they felt they deserved from the get-go.
2. Greenland Polar Bears (3-0, LW:4) - Honestly, it's tough to figure out just how good Greenland is. They haven't played too impressively and their opponents have 2 wins between them and they are between each other. That being said, they can't control their schedule and they are undefeated with what could be an elite defense. I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.
3. Hamilton Hornets (2-1, LW:1) - The stat sheet shows Hamilton dominated on offense and defense but they didn't get the yardage at the right time while Hanoi did. Special teams was also a factor. Hamilton has yet to find a return game and they missed the long go-ahead FG late.
4. Phoenix Rubber Ducks (2-1, LW:7) - A very impressive road win in a very tough cold weather environment. The game got out of hand before Anchorage tried to make it look close.
5. Reykjavik Direwolves (2-1, LW:3) - They lost the game because they only try field goals from the 39 yard line or closer. They had the ball at the 40 and Lamar scrambles to run the clock out instead of throwing a quick hitter to the sideline for a FG chance. Dropping to 5 seems harsh when they should probably be 3-0 but they did lose and the teams above them have victories vs better teams.
6. Indianapolis Predators (2-1, LW:6) - They take care of business and stand pat in the rankings. Honestly, they could have moved up or down had results elsewhere been different. New Zealand struggling isn't helping them in the rankings but I'm sure they are loving it in the standings.
7. Anchorage Amphibians (1-2, LW:5) - The Amphibians now have two decisive losses to top 4 teams. Should they be rewarded for losses when they weren't that close? Honestly, no, but the rankings start getting very jumbled at this point. They just beat Little Rock, who probably looks the best of the teams that could be ranked here so Anchorage gets the benefit of the doubt for now. Losing again, even to another top team in Greenland, would definitely have them take a long tumble. The Benefit of the Doubt Bowl will get a spot on national TV.
8. Little Rock Uni Royals (2-1, LW:10) - They believed they should have been ranked ahead of the Bots and they definitely proved it with a beatdown. Next they host a surprisingly good Lancaster team.
9. Butte Bots (1-2, LW:9) - The Bots lose handily and they... don't fall? Am I on some high grade crack right now or what? Basically there is a pack of about 5 teams at 2-1 and 1-2 that are all comparable. The 2-loss teams have had the toughest schedules and been the most impressive overall so they stay ahead for now.
10. Hanoi Viet Kongs (1-2, LW:14) - Using who beat who gets really tough from this point forward. Many teams ranked soon after beat each other. Two of those teams beat Hanoi so it would make sense to put the Kongs closer to the bottom but at the same time those are two currently good teams in the rankings and Hanoi got the best win out of anyone. Hanoi was given a bit of benefit of the doubt after their poor start and judgment was held for after their game vs Hamilton. They passed so instead of falling to near the bottom, they stay closer to the top of the pack.
11. Egypt Starfalls (2-1, LW:8) - A strong defensive performance followed by a strong offensive performance. The Starfalls are looking like they could be a real threat. Could they get to 6 wins by the halfway point of the season?
12. Freiburg Venom (2-1, LW:11) - The Hanoi win was indeed impressive but the nature of the pack has them dropping a spot for now. It's just a giant cluster****.
13. Lancaster Fighting Amish (2-1, LW:15) - Now why isn't Lancaster ahead of Egypt? Well I think that Freiburg is better and they are a buffer that keeps the head to head victory from influencing the rankings. Lancaster gets the Sunday Night spotlight this week.
14. Tokyo Samurai (1-2, LW:17) - They got the predicted upset victory and now they look to avoid being on the wrong end of one when they travel to Wattsville.
15. New Zealand Blobfish (1-2, LW:12) - The offense couldn't get it going against the Ice Orcas. They are lucky not to fall further thanks to Lancaster looking good at the moment.
16. Scranton Papermakers (1-2, LW:13) - The Papermakers are at a crossroads. They have only beaten a winless team but they almost beat an undefeated one before losing to a middling team. splitting their next 2 games won't help clear that up.
17. Cincinnati Buffleheads (1-2, LW:16) - The early promise seems to maybe be overblown. The loser of Cincinnati vs Scranton will be in deep trouble.
18. Lake Minnewanka Ice Orcas (1-2, LW:20) - The Orcas still don't have an offense but they get their first win on the strength of their defense.
19. Burlington Sock Puppets (0-3, LW:18) - Not a horrible performance but they slide down as the Orcas clear their goose egg.
20. Wattsville Waste Walruses (0-3, LW:19) - These Walruses are definitely in the wastes right now. Straight trash ;) . Honestly, their defense might be pretty good but their offense is non-existent.

 
GOTW
  Reykjavík Direwolves @ Freiburg Venom (MNF)

Rio de Janeiro Pirates @ Burlington Sock Puppets
Lake Minnewanka Ice Orcas @ Hanoi Viet Kongs
Cincinnati Buffleheads @ Scranton Papermakers

Week 5 Power Rankings:

1. Rio de Janeiro Pirates (4-0, LW:1) - An expected outcome. They didn't really have to prove anything even if it was actually close.
2. Greenland Polar Bears (3-0-1, LW:2) - Greenland kissed their sister but that frog didn't turn into a princess. Yes it's awkward. Ties always are.
3. Reykjavik Direwolves (3-1, LW:5) - An impressive win and they jump up top tier to third.
4. Little Rock Uni Royals (3-1, LW:8) - They win, The good, they move up.
5. Indianapolis Predators (3-1, LW:6) - The Predators get their best win to date. We'll see how they do as the schedule gets tougher.
6. Hamilton Hornets (2-2, LW:3) - That was a humbling loss and I could easily drop them below the Bots and Kongs but for now they'll stay above the Ducks and Amphibians who they beat. They cannot afford a loss to Burlington as far as the rankings are concerned.
7. Phoenix Rubber Ducks (3-1, LW:4) - The Ducks survive a close one vs the Blobfish. They only fall because 3 teams are getting rewarded.
8. Anchorage Amphibians (1-2-1, LW:7) - The Benefit of the Doubt Bowl was entertaining but had the most boring ending that didn't settle anything. To its namesake... both teams involved get the benefit of the doubt for another week.
9. Butte Bots (2-2, LW:9) - An impressive win and they only don't move up as other teams desperately barely hold on above them.
10. Hanoi Viet Kongs (2-2, LW:10) - Hanoi is like Butte right now but lost to them earlier. There seems to be a slight cut off after the top 10.
11. Egypt Starfalls (2-2, LW:11) - All these 3 teams lost.
12. Freiburg Venom (2-2, LW:12) - They all lost to good teams.
13. Lancaster Fighting Amish (2-2, LW:13) - Nothing seems to change between them to shake things up.
14. Scranton Papermakers (2-2, LW:16) - The Papermakers win and slide up to the bottom of the pack of teams on the cusp of cracking the top 10.
15. Wattsville Waste Walruses (1-3, LW:20) - The Walruses were not amused of the puns at their expense. They got a win and get a slight bump in anticipation of improved play at QB after getting Dak.
16. Lake Minnewanka Ice Orcas (1-3, LW:18) - They finally had a decent offensive showing but their defense struggled.
17. New Zealand Blobfish (1-3, LW:15) - It's just time to drop them below the Orcas. A win vs Greenland will definitely move them out from near the bottom.
18. Cincinnati Buffleheads (1-3, LW:17) - The Buffleheads get a unique post because they are the weird stepchild that gets forgotten then given awkward attention. They shouldn't have picked another duck name. Sure let's go with that.
19. Tokyo Samurai (1-3, LW:14) - Tokyo loses and ditches their QB in Wattsville. Are they giving up or just retooling?
20. Burlington Sock Puppets (0-4, LW:19) - They almost knocked off the #1 team and maybe should have. They were predicted to be at the bottom and as the only winless team certainly should be there but they certainly are playing some good games and it won't surprise me if they can even pull off the upset vs the slumping Hornets.

Man, we're so bad that part of our writeup is just pasted from last week.

I'll fix it. I must have undone it by accident. I definitely had something different and did it earlier.
