BZZZZZZZZ: Preview of Season 3

The birds are chirping, Cruceh, NEST, and Divegrass are predicting championships, and Murikan is off of his meds, you all know what that means people:

BZZZZZZZZ Season starts soon.

We will preview the games that are to be played this week, and the power rankings heading into this season.

UMAD FC vs. FreeBags FC - HugoReyes can see this as a day off, as FreeBags FC is a husk of its former self. Manager FreeBags has failed to show up for a month now and the predictions for this team are grim.

UMAD FC has come off of a great season, pulling off impressive wins over the season, will look to continue the trend this season and try to dethrone Mild-Mannered Men as the /sp/ League Champion. He easily has the best shot out of what I see is the big three (MMM, Zeon, UMAD)

UMAD has a very balanced team altogether, and will see about pulling it all together this season, which I believe he will very early on.

Trollchester United vs. Dynasty - A Troll Bowl if there ever is one, D1V3GRA55 will try to get revenge against Dynasty for knocking his team out of playoff contention last season.

Trollchester United, if it has anything, is consistency. You would be hard pressed to find a team that is more consistent than the one D1V3GRA55 has pulled together. His Midfield is not very strong, but he makes up for it by being very aggressive on the pitch, usually attempting to reduce the influence of the Midfield to being as minimal as possible if he is outmatched on it.

What can be said about Dynasty is how the hell can manager Murikan make such strange calls for his squad and still win games? Say what you want about Murikan's choices for his lineup, his mind-numbingly erratic patterns, his inconsistency overall, is that he is a very skilled manager. That is the only way I could have seen him win so many games last season is his firm grasp on tactics and playcalling.

NEST FC vs. Principality of Zeon - NEST FC tries to establish itself as a force to be reckoned with, and what better way to show that then beating championship contender Principality of Zeon?

NEST FC this year has all the right pieces to making a championship run, it is just up to him to put all of the pieces together and make his team a well tuned machine. NEST. has playmakers everywhere on his team, and he could very well be a sleeper contender this season, that is if his players decide to show up to the games and actually play for the mostly disgruntled manager.

Cruceh has quite possibly the strongest team in the league, it is going to be up to him, however, to keep it that way. Principality of Zeon has a star Goaltender, a lockdown Defense, a strong Midfield and a decent Attack, they could win games with their defense alone. Cruceh is also among the elite when it comes to calling plays and tactics, being very strong in all of these fields makes Principality of Zeon the number one contender for taking Mild-Mannered Men's championship away from them.

Mild-Mannered Men vs. Strong Island - Stroyent tries to continue his championship caliber ways as Strong Island tries to find an identity for his team.

Mild-Mannered Men, what can't be said about this team besides they are very strong, Stroyent is a fantastic manager, and they have the momentum of a championship behind them. There are virtually no flaws with this team, and others understood that last year, as he only lost three times last season during his championship season. Teams will be hard pressed to find a weakness with this team and exploit it this season, it may very well be a repeat for Stroyent and the Mild-Mannered Men squad.

Strong Island is a very quiet team, not much comes out of the front office, the press does not cover him, which makes this team even more of an enigma. Since this team is such a mystery, however, they are one of the more interesting teams coming into Season 3. Strong_Island really had a lot of prowess managing his team as he started out strong, but slowed down in a dramatic fashion as the season dragged on. If this team has any hope of staying out of relegation, it will be saving all of that energy and preserving it throughout the season, I do not see this team going on a championship run anytime soon.

Match of the Day: Trollchester United vs. Dynasty

BZZZZZ Power Rankings: Preseason

1. Mild-Mannered Men: An incredibly strong team with virtually no holes, they have a very real chance at repeating.

2. Principality of Zeon: Very balanced team and a skilled manager to boot, do not take this team lightly as they will having Mild-Mannered Men's title in their sights all season.

3. Trollchester United: A consistent team, will be able to easily hold a third place position throughout the season.

4T. UMAD FC: I really can't say what will happen in the fourth spot, while he had impressive wins during last season, he also had very strange losses against obviously weaker teams, this team, if they can perform like they can against the juggernauts, will easily not relegate, but if they can't, the answer is in the air, it is a very cloudy situation for now.

4T. Dynasty: Their success depends on if Murikan can actually control his team. He is a skilled enough manager to finish as high as third, but that is if this team can be consistent enough, if they play like they did during the first half of last season, this team is an automatic relegation. Murikan is great with tactics, but an absolutely dreadful talent scout.

6. NEST FC: Let me set the record straight, NEST FC is in no way, shape or form out of the race, he may very well finish as high as 3rd place this season, but his success depends on how well his team will perform against the heavily favored big three.

7. Strong Island: A very strange team, I do no know where they fill finish, maybe they won't be relegated, maybe they will, since so little comes out from manager Strong_Island no one can really be sure but himself.

8. FreeBags FC: If FreeBags miraculously comes back before the season starts, he is a shoe in for the championship race, if not, then this team is an automatic relegation.
