Man, some of you guys just can't wait for someone to post something so you can nip at them for whats wrong with it. All you freaking pansies were BEEEEEGGGGGGIIIIINNG for some east rankings. Now you got 2 people doing it, and you bitch and moan. Rankings are never perfect(See BCS) and even for them to have any actual validity, the season needs to be further along. So enjoy what is presented to you, for your enjoyment, or make your own since your such an expert at it.

Personally I'd love to thank Sean Bishop, Luke 28, and BadgerPhil for taking the time to not only come up with rankings, but actually giving them some reason behind it.

Because you are 1-2 and they are 2-1, any formula out there would have you behind them. Heh, at least you're the top of the 1-2 teams.


?

if you did your homework, we are 1-2 and not 2-1 because we fumbled with a minute left running out the clock against the Nighthawks

but even with that, we beat the Sharks 43-20 just 2 days ago, common sense says we are a more powerful team then them ??

Not to mention we have had the hardest schedule thus far..


Your team wasn't good enough to hold onto the ball, the nighthawks shouldn't be punished for that, you guys should thus you are ranked lower.

Well normally when you Label something Power Rankings, you do it a certain way. I didn't know you were going to make up a system that fits your liking...

my bad


Why do you bitch about "SOMEONE DO POWER RANKINGS" but when someone takes the time to do it and you dont like where your ranked you bitch about it. Make your own power rankings then and rank yourself #1 if you want to be... don't give someone shit that took time out of their day to do this; ungreatful little ass bag.

i never said the nighthawks should be punished for that.

I said, we were 1 play from being 2-1

we beat the sharks by 23 points.

and yet he has us lower then them by a wide margin it seems like. i don't understand his rankings..

to mock what bluur said thank you to all that have taken the time to do these power rankings and reviews it makes things alot more interesting for us that appreciate it, and to those who bitch and moan about it go jump off a bridge or hang yourself from a ceiling fan...

Non-biased, by the numbers, rankings.

The formula uses wins, strength-of-schedule*, and point difference; with it weighted in that order.

*Yes, we all play basically the same schedule minus one game out of conference. SOS still gives us an idea of what team are better while they are bunched up at the beginning and through the middle of the season.

Without further ado, rankings as of Week 3:


Team Name: Power Ranking
-----------------------------------------


Eleven Wise Monkeys: 8.27
Bristol Bullets: 8.13
New York Warriors: 8.11
Alcatraz Island Jailbreakers: 5.51
Boston Massacre: 5.39
Dallas Rampage: 5.37
Louisville Nighthawks: 5.3
Cleveland Firebirds: 5.22
Miami Sharks: 5.16
New York Hope: 2.78
Baltimore Knights: 2.6
Syracuse Souls: 2.5
Colonial Zoners: -0.05
TCC's Wax-Bustin Warriors: -0.06
Hartford Musician: -0.1
Richmond Retros: -0.2





If strength of schedule is taken into account we should be in there!

We have played teams who are 8-1 combined this year!

OMFG guess what... its another East Team bitching about something they bitched for 2 weeks for and finally got it and dont like the outcome; go figure...

You are outscored 23-86 this year; you were shutout last game and your 0-3 you have nothing to bitch about your lucky your not at the bottom.

congrats! OKC was 1 play from being in USA A 1 - shit happens, you still lost and guess what, that will move you down in any ranking

just because you can't comprehend math doesn't mean its wrong, it just means you need to shut your mouth and enjoy the numbers someone has posted because you are too lazy to do it yourself.

he explained how he got his numbers in the original post, please if you come up with a flawless system to rank teams call me because i'll make a fortune selling it to every professional sport league because guess what...ALL the ranking systems are slightly flawed in one way or another

please do some power rankings and feel free to list yourself at #1 if thats what you really need to get through your day


Badger - like most i appreciate the rankings please continue

I think Power Rankings that have no opinions are safer, but i don't think they are ever very accurate. They almost always favor well rounded teams. (says the guy from Boston Massacre lol) Anyway, i would rather have several people post their OPINIONS rather than one guy just posting stats for two reasons: its more fun to discuss, and two, anyone can look at the stats, but that hardly ever states the best team.
