The only change I have from before the season is Firecrackers are off my list and Stealth is in. I said Breeze 03 #1 yesterday and that could change in a week after everyone gets home from Fresno.
The problem is that you base your rankings on how teams finish the past weekend. If, let's say, the Lady Magic beats WC Premier in the championship in Fresno this weekend (just an example, by no means a prediction), I'll betcha you'll have the Magic #1 and WC Premier #2 next Monday. These rankings reflect a season's worth of accomplishments, not a single weekend. You don't seem to get that and that's why you open yourself up to ridicule. If Sac State beat #1 Duke in basketball, would you rank Sac State #1? In your world, the answer is probably yes. Leave the rankings to the other folks who are better able to look at the "big picture."
