I figure this is high time to put together a list of which team is the most powerful:
From worst to best with seeding:
8 Owls: In a tough battle with tictac for worst team.
7 Tictac: one good player makes them better than owls
8 Clerics: with enough cash to win a title, they decide instead to go on a rebuilding mission

6 Smallfries: they look to be in roster dump mode.
7 Warriors: Just dumped a ton of cash into their arena. Not a bad idea considering their situation. Even if they have to play relagation games, they are gonna face one of the three tankers from the Big 8.
6 Mcfatties: I don't have the cash to try to do anything. Hell I am having enough trouble trying to buy an advanced trainer with career extension for my oldies.
5 Pistons: Based on their economic situation they are looking to reload their roster.
5 Thumpers A pure LI team with some strong inside play. Will battle the Rabbits for 4th place
4 Rabbits: They look to be battling to make the playoffs. They have a strong LI based team.
4 Mammals: They added to their roster in late March. They run an unpredictable/balanced offense. But LI looks to be their bread/butter.
3 Lethargy: Last season they seemed to had planned to beat down some Eagles. If they sell a few of their 40 odd players they may be able to contend for a playoff spot.
3 Snowbirds: Losing to the McFatties in their first game in Div II is not a good sign. However, they could easily make the finals.
2 Yuck: They just reloaded their roster. They look strong. They probably have some extra cash to buy another player.
1 Clogs: Somehow they made the finals last season. If they find some better starters they could be well on their way to another trip.
2 GS Warriors: They have a tough inside based team. They added some meat to their starting rotation last week.
1 Silverbacks. Hard to bet against a team that has done this: Silverbacks were crowned champions of league USA NBBA or this: Silverbacks won the USA Tournament
I must admit...the first week just made the situation at the top more cloudy. Lots of balance.
