LI has 2 million more people than MD, 8.5M total. It isn’t small, haha. Team 91 is legit, and the parents are definitely fool. TG is a pretty good team, but will probably never win anything that anyone cares about. YJ is good, but the coach and director are a joke. They keep putting them in the B brackets in tournaments and they haven’t played anyone other than Monster this fall. Not sure who is the other legit team, I presume you mean Tradition, but they are just meh. Much like M&D DC, they happened to catch Integrity at the end of a tournament when their pressure backer D had run the life out of them. Outside of that one game, Tradition hasn’t impressed. Here are the real rankings that aren’t manipulated by YJ’s cowardice:

1) M&D
2) 91 Roar
3) Coppermine
4) Heros
5) NXT
6) Eagle Stix
7) YJ
8) Monster
9) Integrity
10) Top Guns

Predicted USClub Rankings;

YJ
Team 91
M&D
NXT
Coppermine
Heros

Real world experience rankings given we played everyone of those teams except YJ who doesn’t play anyone in the fall;

M&D
Team 91
Coppermine
NXT
Heros
YJ

Last year it was already discussed but given YJ dips everyone in the fall and plays in the B bracket there is a LI bias in the rankings. The system considers all the teams equal at start of fall and once teams have more common opponents it smooths out. Come summer it will work itself out like last year and the UsClub rankings will mirror my real world rankings.

It will be fun to watch your rankings.
