| It looks like it will be the Plumbers and the Bisons in the championship game. Without a doubt no other team is superior to them. Remax and School are not as sturdy.

| Here is someone trying to stir the pot. This comes up every year and Remax goes out in the playoff's and does their thing. Until somebody beats them, they are the team to beat.
Bisons and School are good teams, but not the teams to beat.
The Regular seasons doesn't mean anything.

| I'd have to say it's a little premature and presumptuous to be guessing the league champs when most teams haven't even played four games yet....most players have less than 20 AB's. There's a lot of choke time, and a lot of hot streak time left in the regular season.

| The Plumbers got weaker this year having to take the last couple of picks in the "A" draft, however are performing very well.
It's too bad that some of the other top teams from last year were allowed to cheat the draft, by paying for guys that were known not to be returning to the league, so that they could turn around and pick up undrafted, "hide at the draft", sandbaggers.

Don't worry, the Duke has all the facts. If you read my post, I didn't mention any team names. Are you feeling guilty ?? Maybe the people that are reacting the most, are those with some guilt ?!!
Remax,
This year, if you make it to the "SHOW", play all 15. Don't sit the weak guys, fully dressed, just to win a title in a beer league. If your that good, play all 15 !!!
Duke strikes again

| Hi Duke
You are right we only played 13 in the final game. Unfortunately 2 of our elder statesmen were injured in the morning game and we had to proceed with the the remaining 13(we were playing the school at the time, ask them they will verify the story). We have won 4x in 5 years and we have NEVER SAT ANYONE. Get the facts straight. I will let the 2 players on our team know that you referred to them as our "weaker Players".
I do not know what you are trying to accomplish with your statements but why don't you put your name to it.

| Houghts,
Remember, this is just beer league banter !!
Yes, the Bisons and School are the strongest teams out there. However, the Plumbers, Just In Case, Remax and a few others are by no means "Long shots", as SHR states. Every year, there are suprises come playoff weekend.
As for your "Elder Statesmen", they are both great guys, but everyone plays injured!!
Were all old men trying to gain back some of that former glory.

| Just to be clear, Duke is not either of the Whalen's and we have asked all the players on the Plumbers whether they are Duke and the answer was no. Someone is trying to stir the pot, we have a good idea who but if the glove doesn't fit... Just so everyone knows, the website administer's (who are on the executive) are capable of seeing the IP address for all of the posts, hence, know who everyone is.
As an aside, Remax is the team to beat and they are a class bunch of guys. The Bisons will give them a tough test this year but don't count out the Plumbers!
Everyone, let's just play ball.

| Home sales are on their downswing and so are Remax. Remax has suspect defence and only avg offence. Past performance is no indication of future success, (Torch-2006) If you want an indication of who the champs will be, watch the Monday nighter, School vs Bisons.

clearly, according to the current and recent polls for the best positions in the league,
angus glen so for has the most dominating team, even though their record does not show it. everyone who votes thinks that they are the best team an surely no one voted more than once. mind you, the season only puts you in a bracket, it is what team shows up the final weekend. good luck to their 15 all stars.

| Couldn't agree more bojack. Wild Wing is my pick if I had to bet. Flakeboard is very strong, but their bats aren't as strong at Crosby. If you have a strong left side of the infield, like Kelsey's and Wild Wing, you will beat them. I think Crupi has the best shot of the other teams to make some noise.

| Like everything else in softball, picking one team and labeling it the "best" is always a matter that gives rise to controversy. However, most historians would likely agree that the 2000 to 2005 Remax teams were the best team ever fielded in the USPL...or, for that matter, in any league!

| Hey Bo. Remember a number of things about Remax.
Firstly, they are a butch of great guys that get along together. They support each other and there is no chirping when something goes wrong. They pull it together and play as a TEAM. That's why they do so well. The Plumbers have had a bit of a lull for a while, but I think we have a pretty good chance along with many others. I think we are going to see some great ball with the new playoff schedule. I played with Remax so I know what I'm saying.
