YEs...it's me who's biased. I who have no stake and could care less, but it's me who's biased...of course, because it couldn't be you being biased, you who is on the Bandits, that thinks they should be rated higher...no of course not...

...and of course, such compelling logic you use to attempt to sway everyone too...

I'm going by a formula, but hey I appreciate that you think I'm just making it up, I mean it's not like anyone ever gets offended being called a liar...

I mean it's not like teams that have better records could actually be atop "power rankings" no, that could never happen.

Now, let me break this down so all of you Bandits personnel can finally get it through your heads...

Congrats on your season so far, but no one here gives a flying fuck about what you did in AAA, and if you think it was tougher there, you're a moron. Let the AAA stuff die, and stand by what you've done here so far.

If you all are still so nostalgic for AAA that you keep bringing it up, I can talk to Bort and see about getting you guys back down there again...

Don't like my formula, don't look at it. Plain and simple. But don't accuse me of bias, especially when you're on the team you're trying to get elevated...it's hypocritical...and makes you look like an even bigger moron than someone suggesting AAA is tougher than Pro...


I have zero problem with the rankings as they are based on formula, but are you really threatening that you think you can talk to Bort and get us demoted to AAA? Time for a reality check, my friend.

Time for you to read before making a smart ass comment "my friend"

Ballbright for a guy who posts a lot on here, you have pretty thin skin. Everyone appreciates your work on the rankings but is it really necessary to jump down the throat of everyone who disagrees with you. Dont like the responses, dont read them.

Do you know what power rankings are?

Because they change from week to week.

Continue to look like an idiot plz. Theeeeeeenksssss

EDIT: For example, please look here.

http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/powerranking?week=1&season=2007

The Dolphins were at one point ranked 20, and the comment was

"A defense led by Jason Taylor and Zach Thomas should keep the Dolphins in most games, but the offense could be spotty. Even so, the future looks promising with the preseason performance of rookie QB John Beck."

17 weeks later, the Dolphins sat at 1-15

I'm smart assed by nature, but rest assured I'm not thin skinned...I just relish the opportunity to point out idiocy when I see it.

Wow. Just when you think you've idiot proofed something, evolution comes along and offers up a bigger idiot...

Perhaps you should work on being more clear in your writing.

What an ass

I don't know how to be any clearer than in plain English...

I didn't edit the post, and it isn't my fault that some people skimmed and/or just didn't read carefully...

How exactly am I an ass for that, it seems to me that someone busted for not reading carefully, then lashing out at the guy who pointed it out, would be an ass...

...but then what do I know...I only invented the formula here for a group of online investors starting a sports betting website...

What's with all the fuss? It's one man's formula for his power rankings and he chooses to share it with us. I am rather thankful since it adds an extra element to the whole experience here, making it a closer simulation of real sports.

That said, Ballbright, Journalism 101: Criticism will come. Just take it in stride and keep up the good work. No need to lower yourself.

I agree, I think the original sentence was quite clear in its nature.
