Don't Look Now, Something Special is Happening Up North...
Very quietly this past weekend the NEFL announced the arrival of the South Metro Dragons to their 2010 stable, replacing the temporarily-for-now-defunct Northwest Wisconsin Wolverines. No offense to the Wolverines, but this was quite an upgrade. In two years in the NEFL, the NWW's posted 4 total wins. Not terrible compared to some other leagues - as far as perennial cellar dwellers go - but not great. The Dragons, on the other hand, come in with an NPFL Championship on their resume in two short years. In fact, the NEFL roster now boasts 6 teams (out of 12) that have won championships in respective leagues. Add runners-up, and the total jumps to 8. Of the four remaining teams, 3 have been around for less than three years. Put simply, no one in the Upper Midwest can even come CLOSE to what the NEFL teams will boast next season: 2 NEFL Championships, 2 WSFL Championships, 7 GPFL Championships, 2 NPFL Championships, 3 MAFL Championships, and one NAFL National Championship. As Adam Sandler night have said once upon a time: not too shabby. The level of competition from top-to-bottom is going to be far tougher in the NEFL this season than the MSFL, IFL, WSFL or any other area league. Kudos to Al Johnson, President of the NEFL, for the recruitment and hard work that has no doubt gone into the process. It's refreshing to see a league finally begin to capitalize on some prescient leadership. While financial advisors will tell you that past performance does not guarantee future success, we feel supremely confident that the performance on the fields up north this season will be more than satisfying. |
