I am the owner of the powerful Trenton Terriers. I thought I would drop in and add my 2 cents. It is a very active league, and participation is mandated. This takes the form of mandatory articles, participation in live sims on Sundays, etc.

This is a great league. We have a ton of rivalries and one visit to our message board will show that the comments get fairly brutal. So for the squeamish or faint of heart, you might want to look elsewhere.

Both of the League openings are in the Manifest. The Manifest may be the greatest conference ever known to man. The Manifest always stomps the Continental. The Manifest has always been ruled by the Eastern Division or the BEast as it is known in USBBL speak. Boston and Trenton have won every single division crown since the inception of the league. For the last 2 years, all 4 teams in the BEast have finished +.500. However, there is no hope for Cleveland. If you happen to not follow my advice and pick Cleveland to GM, I will personally make life miserable for you. So you are forewarned.

Las Vegas is in the Western Division. They are the traditional doormats of the USBBL. They have never been any good. For the last 4 years, they have had the #1 pick in the draft. Two of the other teams in the West have won USBBL crowns, LA and Salt Lake, and are traditional powers. The last member of the West is Oregon. They have had all kinds of GM problems. Not that they havent had a GM, he quite frankly isnt any good. Sure he will 85 to 90 games a year, but he is a pretender not a contender. He also signs all of my castoffs, but that is another story for another time.

18 teams in the USBBL in 4 divisions. Only the division winners go to the playoffs. We use a schedule balanced toward the division and tilted toward divisional play in Aug/Sept. There is a fair amount of conference play and 6 interleague games against each member of the other league. (This is mostly due to the fact that I make the schedule and I like beating the hell out of Jax, who has never beat Trenton in our yearly series.)

So if you are looking for a challenge and some intense rivalries, email us today. Thx- Sunny
