Not since Week 5 have I had a winning week. That’s not good. It is growing clear to me that these rankings are not designed to correctly predict winners. That was never it’s intention to be a resource in order to predict weekly winners, but it would have definitely been an added bonus. So if I decide to bring this back next year, I’ll have to come up with some other method of making these rankings somewhat interesting.
