;	True, good work. However, I do not think they will go on to win in the playoffs. I see some wild things happening in B. Favorite- Banditos Upset Specialist- Mercenaries Sleeper- Novacaine Most Likely to get Upset- Hawks

;	Yes, congrats are in order. Congrats for dropping down to B and scoring 230 points and winning the division. The Patriots coach could not have planned it any better. Why don`t we go ahead and give you guys a trophy and let the other teams play in the B division playoffs to have fun and maybe you guys could move back to the division you are supposed to be in ( B+ ). I still say congrats.You did what you needed to do.

wow

;	"banditos" sounds like a bitter man. did the banditos steal your lunch money or perhaps your women???? they were winless last season so if they dropped down or asked to drop down it doesnt seem like it was done just so they would dominate. there is not THAT much difference B and B+. as far as "trues" predictions...lets not count out the VA JJs!!!!! All day! good job banditos, but dont sleep.

;	Not bitter.they are actually a good group of guys. I just feel that they should have been in B+ instead of B , but hey that`s life and I did say congrats to them TWICE.

;	Oh i wasn`t counting VA JJ`s out, nor was I counting out Signal for that matter. I just see them as solid teams with a decent chance of winning, I couldn`t figure out a pun name such as "sleeper" to throw with them though. Just solid teams.

common sense

;	Looks like it was a close game last night between Banditos and Hawks 14-10. Banditos are 8-1, got the division title, but DID LOSE to Signal. With close games and a loss, it doesn`t seem like they dropped down to B to dominate. Yes, congrats on a great season banditos, but it is far from done. There are a lot of good teams in B and should be great playoff action. Why people talk so much trash about them I don`t know, but don`t assume they run away with the championship either. Isn`t this what we play for...good competitive football? That`s what B league has been this whole season.

;	how come the teams in the B+ league are so quiet these days?

SINGAL??

;	Whats going down with Signal? Are they going to win out the season in their double-header on Thursday? It`s hard to tell. They looked dominant till the JJ`s pretty much blew them out. I could see them beating Mercenaries and Hawks Thursday, but I could also see them losing both games. How they play Thursday will determine much of the seeding in the B division.

;	Great game last night Banditos. we gave them the ball on their own 20 with a minute or so left in the game up 10 - 7. they walked down the field with the wind in their face working the sidelines. they scored the winning TD with 14 secs left or something like that. Spectacular drive. the wind was a killer and no one could pull flags. more so on our part. all in all, it was an awesome game to be a part of, just wish we could have been on the winning side. once again, Great game Banditos. hope to see you in the playoffs

;	For what it is worth I think the competition is very close in the B division. Better yet has been the sportsmanship. Although there is some "friendly" chatter out there it all stops at the last whistle. We have two games left and wish everyone luck but definitely want to win. Good job Banditos congratulations! It sounds like it was a heck of a game.

Absolutely

;	Only thing I`ve seen better than the physical competition in B league has been the sportsmanship. Last night`s banditos/hawks was a perfect example. Win or lose, people have acted with alot of class.

Damn right

;	I think us fellow B-Leaguers can all agree that we are the best division in the league this year. We have the most class and the best all around competition (just look at the records). You don`t see us on this messageboard talking trash to each other like the A and C leagues. We handle business on the field and go on with our lives. Great job B.

;	That was an amazing game last night. hawks, you really hung in there and the game could have one either way. an ending like that really fits the old quote, "the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat." the playoffs should be really exciting...and everyone has a chance to come up on top. we know and expect people to be gunning for us. we are ready and are looking forward to some possible rematches. good luck to everyone!

rematch?
