2003 CFFL Pre-Pre Season Predictions: Commissioner Rochon |

Obvioulsy it's way to early to attempt any sort of reasonable prediction on how our league will unfold in 2003, but what the hell. Partly out of boredom, and partly because I'm still upset at my team's poor showing year after year, I've decided to impart to you clowns how I think things will shake down next year.
Of course, the draft could have an effect on each team, but for the most part, unless a major deal is made, what you see is what you're going to get.
If I had to rank the entire league it would be:
1.)Mari Men 2.)J-Lo's Booty Crew 3.)Packers 4.)BallBreakers 5.)Arlington Steelers 6.)Sunvale Broncos 7.)Chapman Cowboys 8.)Pittsburgh Blades 9.)Redskins 10.)Chiefs 11.)49ers 12.)Smoke 13.)Bears 14.)AC Bills.
Feel free to write back with your thoughts on this, I can be contacted at [email protected].
Go here for Quebec Division predictions.
J-Lo's Booty Crew
The biggest underachiever in the league in its short three year existence. They may have really turned a corner with the acquisition of runningbacks Edgerrin James and Duece McAllister. This team should be the one to beat come September as they are solid all around. Another good wide receiver could turn them into 2003 champions.
BallBreakers
Last year's runner up and 2000's champion, the BallBreakers have been one of the most consistent teams in the league. They missed the big money by 6 points in 2002 and should be right near the top in 2003. Eddie George and Fred Taylor form a potent running game.
Chapman Cowboys
A sub par year by Torry Holt and Marshall Faulk, and an injury to starting quarterback Donovan McNabb were the major reasons for the Cowboys absence from the 2002 post season. Still, they weren't too far off and if these three players return to form this year, the boys' will be tough.
Chiefs
Ah....Edgerrin James......Edgerrin James. Wether or not the deal that sent the Edge to the Booty Crew along with Keyshawn Johnson for Corey Dillon and Drew Bledsoe will come back to bite this team on the ass remains to be seen. One thing is for certain, they have to be a more consistant team offensively in order to compete with the big boys of the division. A healthy T.J Duckett could play an important role for this team this year.
49ers
With Jamal Lewis, Brian Griese, Anthony Thomas, and Marty Booker this team has a good starting nucleus. However, previous ownership traded away franchise runningback Ricky Williams near the end of the year and I suspect that this deal will come back to haunt the new owner more than a few times this season.
Smoke
This team has to step up and make a move on draft day. Whether by trade or by draft, the Smoke need a running game if they ever hope to compete in this league. Warrick Dunn finshed 19th overall in runningback fantasy points and scored 2 or less points in 8 of the games.
AC Bills
The starting runningback tandem of Mike Alstott and Kevin Faulk combined for 101 fantasy points. I don't think much else has to be said, draft pick accumulation should be practiced ASAP.
