another RPI.

I've thrown together a Pro Team RPI. The only games that count are Pro League games, Pro World Tournament, Tournament of Champions, Pro Traveling Trophy, and Hazy Elite Tournament (games between two Pro teams only). This should be up to date with all tournaments through today.
I've also made the decision not to cut out teams that have gutted. Mostly because thanks to the strength of schedule component of the RPI, it's not really fair to have some leagues able to drop their worst 2 teams off their schedule. Since I'm doing that, I'm also including any Tournament scrims they actually scheduled. The value of this is arguable, but I had to draw a line somewhere, and I didn't feel like manually determining games in or out.
On with the list:
Rank Team (League) Record RPI
1) Green Bay Marauders (USAPL) 9-0 .717
2) Lafayette Ragin Cajuns (EEPL) 9-0 .667
3) Halifax Explosion (CPL) 11-2 .654
4) Washington Wolfpack (USAPL) 13-3 .653
5) Drinkin Hellraisers (CPL) 16-2 .653
6) Cincinnati Shockers (USAPL) 14-2 .647
7) Monmouth Evil Monkeys (USAPL) 15-1 .646
8) Dryden Blues (CPL) 14-1 .642
9) Emmaus Fighting Green Hornets (EEPL) 14-2 .635
10) Minnesota Marauders (USAPL) 13-2 .635
11) Lake Opeta Legionnaires (APL) 13-1 .634
12) San Francisco Sucka Frees (CPL) 14-1 .634
13) Honolulu Hurricane Warriors (USAPL) 10-3 .632
14) Alpine Golfers (USAPL) 10-1 .632
15) Las Vegas Gamblers (USAPL) 16-2 .625
16) East St Louis Tire Fires (SEAPL) 9-2 .622
17) San Diego Lightning (USAPL) 8-4 .619
18) Doinitin Dijibouti (APL) 11-3 .618
19) Bandar Lampung Pigskin Pirates (SEAPL) 9-2 .614
20) Buda Pests (EEPL) 11-3 .612
21) Mata-Utu Voodoo (OPL) 11-2 .611
22) Buenos Aires Barracudas (SAPL) 11-4 .609
23) Sierra Leone Stallions (APL) 10-4 .605
24) Osaka Buckeyes (OPL) 10-4 .603
25) Hellas Hoplites (EEPL) 6-3 .602
There are some surprises, mostly due to the oddities of scheduling quirks. For example, the Hoplites at 25 are a pretty big surprise to me, considering they are only 4th in their conference and they've lost to 2 teams that are ranked below them (33rd and 38th). Similarly, the Benitos are 42nd (.578), as their strength of schedule is absolutely horrid for now, even though they are 12-0. The Ragin Cajuns also surprised me at 2nd, and they've got some scrimmage losses, but as far as I can tell they're not part of the major tournaments I've included.
If you think any of the W/L records are incorrect, please include which scrimmage games should be counted and what tournament they are part of. If there are recommendations for other tournaments that should be included, I'm open to suggestions.
