The best team in Arena Football

I love being a homer and rubbing this in, the Spokane Shock are the best team in Arena Football right now. Sure, that's because the AFL isn't running at the moment, but for the ninth straight week, the Shock are ranked No. 1 in the coaches poll of the af2.

WEEK 8 TOP 16

RANK	TEAM	PTS
1	Spokane	382 (22)
2	W-B/Scranton	335 (2)
2	Tulsa	335 (1)
4	Tennessee Valley	282
5	Rio Grande Valley	264
6	Arkansas	263
7	South Georgia	255
8	Oklahoma City	232
9	Boise	226
10	Quad City	171
11	Kentucky	137
12	Iowa	132
13	Manchester	113
14	Green Bay	104
15	Central Valley	69
16	Florida	62

And the Shock have defeated Boise and Iowa, two of the teams in the league's top 16. On Saturday, they'll also take on Florida as the schedule noticeably ramps up in terms of difficulty.
