Just some small content I've been posting each week in the discord but i'll also start posting them here for the GMs only on MFN. I'll add the last 2 weeks to this post and the next post will have the current power rankings.

WEEK 1 POWER RANKINGS (Pre-Season)
1. Sacramento Spartans
Robert Romano and the defending champs top the week 1 power rankings as they look to continue their dominance this season.

2. New York Mafia
After their upset to the Bayhawks in the playoffs the New York Mafia are out for vengeance. Expect this team to take another crack at an undefeated season.

3. Seattle Lumberjacks
One of the top teams last season the Seattle Lumberjacks have continued their excellence in the pre-season with Bobby "Big Chest" Powers leading the most high-powered offense in the league.

4. Houston Apollos
One of the most successful teams in the first 2 seasons of the league the Houston Apollos will be seeking to add a championship to their trophycase this season.

5. Bronx Brawlers
The only team to beat New York in the regular season the Bronx Brawlers want to be known for more and starting off the pre-season with 3 wins is a good start to their hunt for a trophy.

6. Long Beach Bearcats
The Bearcats didn't have the season they were hoping for with the surgence of the Spartans but they have the best rated defense going into the regular season led by Kevin Godinez.

7. Salt Lake City Hornets
Under new ownership the Salt Lake City Hornets have gotten down to business. 3-0 in the pre-season and one of the best rated defenses new owner Holocron has made it clear to the team what his goals are this season.

8. Brooklyn Reapers
The third team from the Skyline division to make an apperance on the Week 1 power rankings. The Brooklyn Reapers have been under the radar but Francisco Lopez is looking to win it all before he retires.

9. Baltimore Bayhawks
After a shocking upset victory against the Mafia in the playoffs the Baltimore Bayhawks have been on a decline. The pre-season was less than impressive for this squad but Alfred "Oscar" Meyers told reporters that nobody cares about the pre-season and they'll be ready when it matters.

10. Washington Wyverns
After a disappointing season the Washington Wyverns have retooled and look to continue their pre-season success into the regular season. Team owner braindeadkidfromouterspace has offered a $2,500,000 bonus to every member of the team if they make the playoffs this season.

WEEK 2 POWER RANKINGS
1. Sacramento Spartans
Robert Romano and the defending champs continue their excellence as they take wins over some very solid teams including the Bearcats and Lumberjacks. We will most likely have to wait towards the end of the season to see if anyone can take down this powerhouse.

2. New York Mafia
Coming out of the gates on fire the New York Mafia have started the season undefeated including a win against the Brooklyn Reapers. They currently have the highest rated offense and defense in the league and are eyeing that top spot in the power rankings. Michael Luis told reporters he's bored and feels like it's a waste of time playing any team right now other than Sacramento.

3. Houston Apollos
Some huge wins for the Houston Apollos last week including wins against the Detroit Motors and Seattle Lumberjacks. The Apollos are on a roll and will look to continue their streak the next 6 games at least as the teams they face in those games currently have 1 combined win.

4. Salt Lake City Hornets
A nice leap for the Salt Lake City Hornets continuing their undefeated streak in the preseason into the regular season including a convincing victory over the Baltimore Bayhawks. Franklin English has fully made the transition to RB and is currently leading the league in rushing yds and tds.

5. Long Beach Bearcats
The Long Beach Bearcats have one of the most rounded teams in the league and secured 2 wins this week along with a loss to the Sacramento Spartans. They have been known to experiment with their gameplanning and will need to pull off some magic as they start the upcoming week against the New York Mafia.

6. Brooklyn Reapers
In the toughest division in the league the Brooklyn Reapers lost the first game of the season to the New York Mafia but bounced back with 2 wins along with a victory against division rivals Bronx Brawlers. Francisco Lopez is off to a slow start but he's been seen on twitter asking Peyton Manning for therapy treatment recommendations in Europe.

7. Bronx Brawlers
The Skyline division is still going strong with 3 teams still in the power rankings this week but the Bronx Brawlers have fallen a few spots after their devastating loss to the Brooklyn Reapers. They face the Sacramento Spartans next and will need Barry Morton and the rest of the offense to be firing on all cylinders to pick up a win.

8. Baltimore Bayhawks
The Baltimore Bayhawks are slowly climbing the ranks with 2 wins this week and their only loss being to the Salt Lake City Hornets. Ramon "Kool Aid" Waller needs to add some more sugar to the mix if they expect to keep moving up the ladder as they have one of the toughest schedules in the league ahead of them.

9. Los Angeles Outlaws
The only new team to make an appearance on this weeks power rankings, The Los Angeles Outlaws have gone undefeated with wins against the Legion, Warships, and Grizzlies. The defense has been carrying Todd Harris and Tyler Tillery leading the way.

10. Seattle Lumberjacks
A huge tumble for the Seattle Lumberjacks with 2 losses to the Sacramento Spartans and Houston Apollos. Still one of the top teams in the league they'll need to do more to prove they're a contender.

    WEEK 3 POWER RANKINGS



    1. New York Mafia
    The New York Mafia continue their undefeated spree with some big wins over the Bearcats and Reapers. Michael Luis was active on twitter after the Sacramento Spartans loss this week, calling them "frauds" and that the championship trophy will be back in New York soon enough.


    2. Houston Apollos
    The Houston Apollos have been silently climbing the power rankings each week and are the other undefeated team in the league joining the Mafia. Star WR Randall Goodnight told reporters this week that he's expecting Houston to stay undefeated for the rest of the season but time will tell.


    3. Sacramento Spartans
    After a devastating loss the the Long Beach Bearcats the Sacramento Spartans have finally dropped in the power rankings and now have their first loss of the season. The defending champions will look to bounce back with some favorable match ups on the calendar this week.


    4. Long Beach Bearcats
    The Long Beach Bearcats shocked the world as they upset the Sacramento Spartans. Reporters talked with GM BeastMode about the victory who responded by saying he didn't even realize they had a game.


    5. Salt Lake City Hornets
    The Salt Lake City Hornets had a good week but it wasn't good compared to the rest as they drop a spot in the power rankings. One of the most dominant team in the league but also with one of the easiest schedules thus far. It will be interesting to see how this team does against the Apollos and Bearcats later in the season.


    6. Bronx Brawlers
    After a close loss to the Spartans the Bronx Brawlers racked up 3 straight wins as they look to prove that they're the team that should represent the Skyline division.


    7. Seattle Lumberjacks
    A big turnaround for the Seattle Lumberjacks as they go undefeated this week with wins against the Lightning and Warships.


    8. Detroit Motors
    The Detroit Motors first apperance on the power rankings comes after 4 wins this week with the team currently on a 5 game win streak. They'll start the upcoming week off with a big game against division rival Columbus Bombers.


    9. Memphis Medjays
    Another team to make their first apperance on the power rankings, the Memphis Medjays have taken control of the Southland division with a 4 game win streak including wins against the Reapers and Lightning.


    10. Brooklyn Reapers
    A rough week for the Brooklyn Reapers as they drop 2 losses to the domiant New York Mafia and the impending Medjays. Brooklyn will really need to prove themselves this week with matchups against the Spartans and Wyverns.

  • Next 5: Bayhawks, Bombers, Wyverns, Pirates, Legion
