14U TEAM RANKING (Bracketologist)updated after ASA STATE

[Skarp]

Just curious as to how all this ratings really work. I understand they are just for fun. My question is If 2 teams meet up at a friendly,tournament or showcase and one team seems to dominate the other and that same team is rated below the loosing team shouldnt that give the winning team some points up on the loosing team? or is everything just based on how many tournaments a team wins?

None of the above. It's based on a combination of voodoo, tea leaves, and bracky's twisted nocturnal visions.

What it definitely isn't is serious, or based on anything close to perfect information. Half the time the only people who know about the dominant friendly performance (lol) are the parents who watched it. So take it for what it is...an entertaining diversion that at least gives us one person's relatively informed take on the lay of the land. Get too nit-picky and you may not even have that any longer.

I was watching a game one day and some lady started talking to me because I had a bucket shirt on. I asked her how her dd's team was doing and she said great i think we are in the Bracketologist top 15. As I went to laugh I saw that she was as serious as can be. Doesn't brackey work for AP and the BCS

That was KR's wife. She's on your team. You really need to lay off the sauce.

Very well put. I better stop here then because I dont want bracky to put a spell on me with his twisted noctural visions. Its also getting a little to serious with dance poll competitions or was that a twirling pole competition?lol
