(Tier 1) There’s no doubt about it – Wait ‘Til Next Year (1) is undoubtably the favorite to win the League of Leagues next season. With an absolutely unreal baseball team that should only get better in the future, and NBA team centered around two young stars and an improving NFL roster, it’s honestly going to be hard for Kyle NOT to win next season. Right now, he’s projected to have 10 more points than any other team, and that includes an NFL team that is on the outside looking in of the playoffs. If his NFL team is remotely good, the league is a wrap (and it might already be).
It’s honestly hard to overstate how good his MLB team is going forward. This squad is absurd, and his NBA team isn’t much worse. I’d pencil in a Wait ‘Til Next Year league win next year, and expect to be playing for second if I were trying to compete.
(Tier 2) Sporty Strauss (2) is built to compete next year once again. It’s a little bit more of a win-now team than most builds, and he should do just that: win now. There are a few ways for this team to go astray, always starting with the flukiness of NFL, but Tom Brady has one more year in him, another $2K is within Strauss’ reach.
The Ornery Otters (3) are the surprise team here. With a full array of draft assets and a young core, Korey should be able to place as long as nothing goes horrible. Each of his teams are built for the future – particularly NBA and MLB – and he just needs to hope his WR issues straighten out over time in NFL. He’s got talent, that’s for sure.
(Tier 3) Next there is a group of teams that are hard to separate – the top-four of whom are projected to be within a point of each other. $traight Cash Homie (4) leads this group with extra draft assets that can be used to build dynamic new teams. It’s far from a certainty though, and one of Win’s Up Doc (5), the Cooper Troopers (6) and the SG Choppers (7) could easily slide in and place next season. The Cooper Troopers have the most potential of the bunch with a really solid NFL prognosis. Doc rests his case on NBA, per usual, while the SG Choppers ALSO have an excellent NBA situation with a top-3 pick and surplus of draft assets.
This race could be tight, and it’s not right to count out Las Cabras (8), DTC Porkchop Express (9) or the MN Moose Knuckles (10), each of whom have a case to be higher on this list. For Las Cabras and DTC Porkchop Express – it’s simple… those NFL teams have a high probability of being EXCELLENT, meaning that Jordan+Trevor and Craig could allocate future assets towards competing in NBA and MLB when the need arises. For the MN Moose Knuckles, having every single one of Sam’s first round picks gives him a ridiculous bonus that could be used to rebuild some sorry rosters.
(Tier 4) First in the last Tier are the The Pullies, who are ranked this low due to the weakness of their NFL roster. The Pullies are in absolute purgatory going forward if they can’t figure something out in NFL. The trick is that if they suck at NFL, they’ll be behind the 8-ball all season. They won’t be able to justify making moves in NBA and MLB, and they are competent enough in both of those sports not to suck. They’ll be playing just to not get the last place penalty and then hopefully reload a sorry NFL squad the following season.
But in last place is The BamO’s. This isn’t just due to the loss of the first round picks. Sam currently has no prospects that are even ranked right now, so his MLB team is going to be horrible year-after-year. And then he lost MULTIPLE draft picks in NBA for not setting his lineup when he needs all the depth he could muster. His NFL team is still really, really good, however, but that alone won’t save him. Sam is in huge trouble not only next year, but every future year after that. I would certainly bank on Sam getting a lion’s share of the last-place penalties in the League of Leagues with an old, aging NFL team, lack of youth in NBA and a complete lack of youth in MLB.
