The Next Project

The next page to be posted will be the College Basketball Men's page. Should be up in the next few days for your critique.

UFL Page Posted

The page for the United Football League has been posted. Unfortunately, only my ratings and Joe Kasulis's are there. Joe will be sending me the other links and I hope to have them posted next week.

Jeff Sagarin

Mr. USA Today Ratings Dude's entry has been changed in the NFL and College Football lists. The other sports will be updated as we post the pages. The Kiva site is apparently history along with the Indiana high school boys' and girls' basketball and Women's College Basketball, college soccer, and PGA. I assume he's posting them somewhere else. If anyone knows, please contact me.

Jaakko Suni

His rankings are back and added to the listing.

Another Milestone

The NFL page has been updated with all the active systems. That brings the total to NFL, College Football, College Baseball, and CFL. The other pages are smaller and will be updated in the near future. The NFL page has 46 listings. College football has well over 100. I lost count. CFL has 12, College baseball has 8. Most listings have multiple links. The next pages to be updated in order are the UFL, NCAA Basketball, Auto Racing, Soccer, NCAA Men's Hockey, NBA, NCAA Women's Basketball, Women's NCAA Hockey, and Major League Baseball. Once I get all the pages set up, it will be a matter of updating listings in the various sports by their entries on our master page. This is where we keep sites that have disappeared and put new sites we find.

A Major Milestone

Today I finished the College Football page. All signals are go (to be checked through the season) and all entries are listed. From here I will gather any additional information from the NFL page to add to the master page. The new NFL page will be made from that. After that will be the NCAA Basketball page, then the NASCAR page. From this point the objective is to redo all the current pages. There will also unfortunately be some structural changes but it's for order and usability. See the finished College Football Page.

Things are Starting to Look Good

I have finished the main page down through Ryan Williams. All I lack are David Wilson, John Wobus, Peter Wolfe, and Steve Wrathell. and the four listings at the bottom. Once I finish those I will begin replacing the other pages. It will be smooth sailing through the rest of the overhaul. The signals are updated, too.

Friday, October 22, 2010

Getting Closer to Real Visible Progress

There are 95 green signals, 8 yellows that probably won't show, and 21 entries left to check before the big overhaul of the other pages. Whew! The first pages to be updated will be the College Baseball (already done by Jon Rogers), College Basketball (being assembled by Jon Rogers or me if I get to it first, then maintained by Jon), CFL (already being maintained by Joe Kasulis), the UFL (I don't remember whether or not I've posted this one yet), NFL (Joe Kasulis), and NASCAR (Steve Pugh will maintain this one and possibly others).

Sunday, October 17, 2010

Joseph Dise

CPI Ratings has been added to the list.

Jon Rogers

The BCS-Compliant Ranking has been added to this entry.

Update

I've completed the college football page down through Jeff Sagarin.

Signals Updated

I've updated the signals so there are a lot of new ratings. I also made some changes to some entries and am currently working my way down the page from David Rothman.

Wednesday, October 6, 2010

A New Interview

Jim Ashburn of AtomicFootball.com is doing an interview to be linked from the directory. I'll let you know when it is official.

Got Back Late

Well, I didn't get anything done on the directory as I had one less day off. We got back late from town and now it's way past my bedtime. Oh, well, my next day off will be three or four days away.

Thursday, September 30, 2010

Master Page Check

I checked the master page with all the links. I've completed the first 25 screens and have six to go. In comparison, the college football links page only has four screens of links.

Catching Up

I am officially four hours and forty-five minutes behind my goal, now. That means I should have been finished with the college football page and the NFL page and working somewhere beyond that. I will conquer.

Sites and Signals Update

The list is now checked and signaled down through David Rothman. Some links were added, a few on David including my interview with him.

Signals Updated

All the signals have been updated as far as the directory has been updated. This was a big week for initial updates. Most of the last initial updates will happen next week. Some of the entries that appear to be valid but are not will become evident in the next few weeks and will be removed. Rating sports has a high turnover rate. You have to be in love with it.

Update

The College Football Page has been updated through Eddie Pettis.

Sonny Moore Updated

The entry for Sonny Moore's Computer Power Ratings has been updated to his new site.

Sunday, September 26, 2010

New Signals

Signals are updated from Sonny Moore through Kent Novick.

Disruption

Just as I was getting into this project my boss called me to come in six hours early. I will finish this hour and may have time to work some more later.

Pat Laffaye

Pat now has two systems. The description has been updated on the Round Robin Winning Percentage. The new one is the Expected Winning Percentage.

Sonny Moore

Sonny is psychic. His link was the next one to be updated and he sent me the information for his new web site. It's active and updated.

A Little More Time

I'm sitting at home with a pulled muscle. I woke up with it yesterday and went ahead to work. The first trip was normal but on the second one the pull got worse and proceeded to worsen throughout the day. I'm trying to avoid using it so I'm sitting in a comfortable chair with my laptop. It took about five minutes to figure out how to get out of bed this morning. I had to slide my foot toward me, then turn to my right carefully and put my hand on the floor. That gave me some leverage and thirty seconds later I was standing tall. I also have a drinking problem. It's not as bad standing up as sitting in a chair but it requires using my pulled muscle. I'm going to buy some straws. Today I will get a little further down the list as my muscle allows.

Friday, September 24, 2010

Progress Update

I'm about two-thirds of the way down the main page. Last entry finished was Justin Moore. All signals up to date to there.

Signals Updated

The signals have been updated and there are a few new ratings to view. http://www.nutshellsports.com/wilson/

Thursday, September 23, 2010

Progress?

Yes, I am making progress. You certainly can't tell from all the stuff not being posted but I am in the process of switching HTML editors. The one I have used for years and years has suddenly decided to delete things from the main body. I'm getting the new one going.

Saturday, September 18, 2010

Herman Matthews

Just past Kenneth Massey's listing, though you won't see it on the site, is my interview with Herman Matthews. We lost Herman and David Rothman in recent years. I've posted David's interview in a previous entry. Here is Herman Matthews': Interview of Herman Matthews

Update

The list has been updated through Kenneth Massey, whose site always gives me a headache. Abundant ratings and information. If you could see all the links I have to his site you would get a headache, too. Anyway, a good deal of the work I just did can't be seen on the site. Most of the links will be added to other pages when I get to them.

Signals Updated

I've updated the entries to green that have posted this season down to the place I have reached. All yellow lights indicate that the initial list has not appeared. Many retrodictive systems do not post until several weeks into the season.

Sunday, September 12, 2010

Update

The main directory page is now checked down to Lawler.

Monday, September 6, 2010

Drew Pasteur and John David

The Fantastic 50 has been added to the NFL page. Their other ratings will be added later.

Update

This list has been carefully checked through Steven Jens which is indicated by the signal lights I am re-adding. I still have to go from Dr. Kambour downward. Once I finish this page I will add the NFL and UFL pages. The college men's basketball page is being compiled by Jon Rogers who has completed the college baseball page as well. The UFL, CFL, and NFL pages are maintained by Joe Kasulis. If you notice that a rating page has been updated to this season and shows the teams in order (not alphabetical) but the light is still yellow, please let me know.

Success So Far

I have updated to the point I thought I would reach last week - Gupta - who, incidentally, is apparently no longer rating. He must have gotten engulfed in some of the activities in which he was participating in those pictures. I shall continue into this week, now.

At It Again

How about that first week of football? I'll be glad when they start ending the week on Saturday. I have some time and am about to attack the directory. I didn't make it by the start of the season but I'll do what I can.

Tuesday, August 31, 2010

Finished All I Could

The College Football Rankings page has been updated somewhat. I had intended to get down to Gupta but my bedtime has come and gone. I will have to continue this later. The entries that have signals are the genuine new directory. Between the last signal and Gupta not all the entries are legitimate but hit and miss. After Gupta they are fairly reliable because none have been changed.

Getting Ready to Start Updating Pages

Most of the College Football page is ready. I'm going through it, adding links from the Additional Information page. After that, I will go through all the entries to apply the green and yellow signals. Green means the current ratings are set up and yellow means the ratings are outdated but expected to be posted later in the season. I also have to change some of the link wording so that everything is consistent. After I post the College Football page the NFL page will be next.

Wednesday, August 25, 2010

Brian Fremeau

The Fremeau Efficiency Index has been added to the directory.

Better BCS

The pre-season MegaRanking is posted at Nutshell Sports.

Dan O'Malley

Dan's Rankings have been added to the directory. Most of the new ratings being posted were located by Jon Rogers.

The First Action of the Season

The latest and first NCAA Oddsmaker Ranking is now posted at Nutshell Sports. There's not a lot of change from last season.

Kenneth Massey

The College Football Ranking Consensus has been added to the directory.

Brian Boggo

Boggo Team Rankings has been added to the directory.

Thursday, August 19, 2010

Getting Closer

Both the new season and my progress are getting closer. I did manage to get my site back in order after the chaos of moving everything to the newer laptop. I also added a new CFL entry thanks to Joe Kasulis, the maintainer of the CFL list. Next week is looking good. I have a lot of finishing up to do.

Friday, August 13, 2010

Jon Dokter

Entropy has been updated. I forgot to tell you.

Saturday, August 7, 2010

Give and Take

The part of my web site I maintain for David is on my newer laptop. My part of the site is on the old laptop. Unfortunately, the old laptop no longer comprehends the home wi-fi. It does, however, understand the wi-fi from my Samsung Epix. That would be fine but I don't want to pay for an extra line just to upload my web site. My new Palm Pre is the greatest phone in the world except for two things - its Google Maps app doesn't let me log in so I can get my saved locations (Google's fault) and, as far as I know, nobody has written an application so that I can use the wi-fi on my Pre to upload files from the old laptop. I could pay AT&T twice as much to tether the laptop to the Pre but for that price I could have two data lines and there wouldn't be a problem except for the money flowing out of my pocket. So today I am going to have to move the partial web site to the new laptop. Bummer.

Get Your Ratings Posted

Kenneth Massey is compiling his college football Ranking Comparison. If yours are ready, let him know.

Bad Weekend

I'm going to take a nap and hope I wake up before I have to go to work. A connection on my car kept them from getting readings on my car to inspect it. They sent me to another place but their computer was down. That will now wait until next week. I took my daughter to start a bank account. She needed two forms of ID that will have to wait for later. My wife got sick and I have to take her to the doctor tomorrow. We went to get my wife a new phone and found out it was a lot cheaper on the Internet. I have to order it, now. There were other things that happened like someone screwing up the date on my loan. I'll stop there. Maybe I can wake up long enough to get something posted later. So, how was your day?

Sunday, July 25, 2010

Two Days Off

Hopefully, in between other things that always inconveniently pop up, I will have a few hours to work on the directory this "weekend."

Tuesday, July 20, 2010

Canadian Football League Power Rankings

Joe has added the Canadian Football League Power Rankings to the CFL page.

Wednesday, July 14, 2010

New Site for You to Talk about your Sports Site

I set up a new blog for those who want to publicize their own work. Post news or ratings or ask questions or whatever.

Brian McAtee

Quality Champions Rankings has been updated to its new site.

Peter Mucha

Remember the Monkey Ratings? Peter Mucha is back with the Random Walker Rankings.

Back to Normal

Okay, the job change is finished and I'm getting used to the very different hours. I've gotten my email straightened out and started working on the directory, again. A fairly smooth transition.

Friday, July 2, 2010

Great Season in NBA

In the NBA the Nutshell Combo was the best against the spread followed by Nutshell Girl. Wish I could have been up there. I guess I get half an award and Nutshell Girl gets a half. She did have seven more wins than anyone else against the line. I did well as far as bias goes, coming in second to Least Squares. Of course, I feel a little better knowing Least Squares came in late in the season while I was there from the beginning. We are also doing MLB but we're both behind schedule and there's nobody to tell us how well we're doing. Todd only has so much time.

Status

Getting close to the end of the page in college football. The tedious part is almost finished except for the Additional Listings page. The rest will be fun.

Catherwood Rating System

The Catherwood Rating System has been added to the directory.

Updates to Superlist

When I didn't win an award on Todd Beck's site this season (Nutshell Girl did) I thought I was going to have to kick myself off the list. Fortunately I still hold second place (there's only room for two) so I get at least one more season, making two for me. Jeff Sagarin will be replaced this season by Payne College Football Power Ratings as a retrodictive. The top contenders this season for predictive were Kambour, Nutshell, StatFox, Sagarin, Pigskin, Bemiss, and Massey. Unfortunately for the Girl, she didn't win a category that would get her closer to the Superlist but I'm proud to say that she has won an award in each of her first two complete seasons.

Dezenzio TSRS

The True Statistical Rating of Strength has been added.

David Knight

The RoundTable Ratings have been added to the college football page. Other entries that will later be added to their respective pages are NFL, men's college basketball, NBA, and college baseball, most including predictions.

I'm Baaaack!

Had to do a little job change. Things are almost back to normal, now.

Sunday, June 27, 2010

StatFox

StatFox Power Ratings have been added to the directory. Ratings that will later be added to their respective pages are Arena and CFL football, College Men's basketball, NBA, WNBA, MLB, NHL, and NASCAR.

Real Time RPI

This system has been added. Entries for men's and women's basketball ratings and RPI's as well as NFL will be added later on their respective pages.

Catastrophic Annihilation

This system has been added to the list.

This Week

I have half a weekend to do what I can. The yard I work at has decided to send their business to another one. A good bit of my time will be used to get the next job. I've had three jobs in sixteen years. I hate changing jobs.

Last Week a Disaster

I had to work an extra day last week and the other day off I used from beginning to end to try to keep my life in order. It was a success in that aspect but nothing was done on the directory.

Friday, June 18, 2010

Status Check

Added two today, working on several more. Back Sunday - no, really, this time.

Ben Hatch

Hatch Mathematical Ratings have been added.

Steven Jens

Steven Jens' NCAA Football Sports Ratings have been added to the college football page.

Wednesday, June 16, 2010

That's It Until Sunday

Most of the work we did this week is not visible to the public. Jon Rogers updated the college baseball page and is working on the college basketball page. Joe finished the CFL page and will be tackling the UFL page, most likely. I had a funeral and all its prerequisites which cut my time severely, including normal family time, but managed to get a few things done. Sunday I will get back into the swing of things.

CFL Page is Updated

You know Jon Rogers has updated the college baseball site and now Joe Kasulis has updated the CFL page. There's still a lot of work to be done on our list before all the pages show up. Now and then a new page will be revised until we get to that point. Pages that are in the works are the UFL and college basketball.

Monday, June 14, 2010

Updating College Basketball

Jon Rogers is updating the college basketball page. Once he completes it and we have established the links, I will let you know. He already has the college baseball page posted.

Still Grinding It Out

I'm still working behind the scenes. Every time I knock off one link, I gain two more. It's going to be a race to the finish line to beat the new college football season. I'm gathering links from the Additional Listings page and adding new sites that were sent to me from Jon and Joe. David's still sending me information on college football sites. Once I collect the Additional Information links, I will put update Joe's CFL page. That will be the first brand new page but it will still look like all the others. If you don't hear from me again, I've gone over the edge.

Sunday, June 13, 2010

Addition to Steven Jens

I somehow left out the fact that there are CFL ratings which, ironically, are the reason I was checking his site in the first place.

Eric Hollobaugh

Eric Hollobaugh's Sports Rating have been gathered and will appear on their respective pages once I get that far. His ratings include Arena Football League, CFL, NBA, and MLB. You can find the various ratings at: http://ratingspage.zoomshare.com/. As with Steven Jens's the pages are linked by the year. If the link shows a 9, you can delete it and add 10 to see if he has moved on to the next season yet.

More on Steven Jens

Steven uses the year in his URL's. Some of the sports are listed as 09. By changing the 09 to 10 you can find his new ratings once he gets them set up.

Steven Jens

I have collected the ratings pages from Steven Jens Sports Ratings. I have not put it on the college basketball page, yet, as I await a verdict from David. There are other ratings there, though, including Arena Football, Men's and Women's College Basketball, NBA, WNBA, MLB, Men's and Women's College Hockey, MLS, and USL. The home page where you can find the information is: http://www.stevenjens.com/Sports/

Saturday, June 12, 2010

Updating CFL Page

Joe Kasulis tells me (I usually find out by accident) that Canadian Football is about to start. I'm excited because I don't even know if all the same teams are playing yet. In any case, I'm going to update the page with Joe's information. It might take some time since I will also go through those sites for links elsewhere. The next posts will be mainly CFL.

Jerry Palm

The PSR Ratings are now posted.

Ryan Williams

ryanratings has been added to the directory.

Tuesday, June 8, 2010

Hmm

I see in my Twitter section that I need to quit posting so many things to a site that is linked to it. People ask questions for you to answer and I was surprised to see them there. Don't read too many of them. You might get to know me a little too well.

College Baseball Page

While I've been working on the college football and additional information pages, Jon Rogers has been updating the college baseball and basketball pages. The baseball page is now updated and the basketball page should be finished soon. David's idea has now spread to three sites.

Tough Weekend Update

I had a family reunion on one of my two days off and went to jury duty the second. I got an extra day off which is good for time but bad for money. I have actually used some of it for the directory. The next few (above) posts will tell you what I'm getting done.

Sunday, May 30, 2010

Time to Stop

I probably won't do any more updates this week. I am supposing that David and Jon and Joe will have some new things to do next week. If not, I will continue down the Additional Links page. I have plenty left to do.

David Ewold

Does anyone know where his College Football Top 40 has moved?

Update

Pulled all useful links from Additional Links through Carl Banks. Added article to Todd Beck's listing. You won't see some of those links until I redo those pages.

Another Missing Rater

Anyone know what happened to Carl Banks? It seems to me he had a problem he had to deal with. I'm not sure.

Basic List Complete

All entries on the College Football Page have been updated. It's time to go through Jon Rogers' list to see what else needs to be added. It is up to David as to which sites will be added. In the meantime I will start going through the Additional Links page for links that need to be added to the currently listed sites. After that will be Jon's and Joe's pages - NFL, College Basketball, College Baseball, CFL, and UFL, in that order.

John Wobus

Wobus Ratings has been updated.

Another Missing Rater

Where is Lawrence Wisne of CFFinsiderRankings?

David Wilson

Performance Ratings is updated. This is where you find all the goodies.

Steve Whitlock

Whitlock College Football Rankings is updated.

Matt Welch

Matthew Welch's College Football Ratings are updated.

F.R. Webb

Webb's Rating Index has been updated.

Another Missing Rater

Does anyone know what happened to Ron Walter?

Saturday, May 29, 2010

Break Time

That's it for today (maybe). I've made it down to the last thirteen. So far the updated entries are up to 103 and Jon Rogers has found some more to add. Still a lot of work to be done but the majority of it is complete.

Ray Waits and Rick Workman

The MegaRanking, including Middle Game Ratings, Oddsmaker Ranking, and Workman Poll (FCSTop25), has been updated. The strange thing is that I discovered I don't have a link to it from most of my site pages. Oops!

Ray Waits and David Wilson

The College Football Superlist has been updated. There are still changes to be made to a few of the components before the season begins.

Ray Waits

The Middle Game Ratings and the Nutshell Retrodictive Ratings have been updated.

Micki Waits

The Girl's (alias Nutshell Girl's) Rating has been updated. As far as we know she is the only female sports rater in history. We don't know why.

Hank Trexler

Hank's Power Ratings has been updated.

Missing System

The Sports Report is no longer doing ratings but post their most talented teams.

Another Missing Rater

Bradley Terry's site is not reachable. Anybody know what has happened to him?

I'm in it for the Fun

My "career" in ranking sports teams began as a teenager in the '70's. I was a fan of the Top Twenty for college but there didn't seem to be anything for the NFL. So I began to rank the NFL teams which later led to ranking college teams. Then I discovered the Internet. There was David Wilson who kept a directory of college football rankings which mesmerized me and who also gave that madman ranking king Kenneth Massey a place to start. I just had to get in on the fun. My first success was to get a column on Kenneth's Ranking Comparison Page. Next was to be listed on David's directory. The final accomplishment (and the only real thing that remained unless I've missed something) was to be included in Todd Beck's Prediction Tracker. But that wasn't enough. Ranking teams was a great hobby but I liked to see how others ranked the same teams. David let me get involved in maintaining his college football directory and even expanding it. This season I hope to see it in its greatest form yet and actually have a couple of other raters who are interested in maintaining certain pages. I'm out of control. There's just too much fun, now. By the way, listen to my voice of experience. I've seen dozens or possibly hundreds who thought they were going to have an ongoing rating system who have come and gone. Do not suppose you are going to make money by jumping on the bandwagon. The attitude to get involved in rating teams is as a hobby. Very few make money but a lot of us are perpetually addicted to what we are doing. If you survive, that's what you have to be. If you do give it a shot, though, good luck. We welcome your opinion.

My View on Conferences

I know there is the possibility that the superconferences are being built up to get out from under NCAA rule, but I am a football fan. The whole concept of having conferences is so that all the teams therein can play each other to see which team is best. I don't like having large conferences where they can't. Conferences are getting ridiculously large. Some of them have divided into two conferences and take the winner of each division to a conference championship game. However, there are still circumstances in which one team may be chosen over another team even though the two teams never played each other. That is stupid. In my opinion all the FBS teams should be divided up by area into sixteen conferences. All the teams in the conferences should play each other. All the winners would play by area until only the national champion is left standing. Lots of inter-conference games would also be played for entertainment but would obviously have no bearing on the sixteen-team playoff. One season I remember in the NFL the Rams won the conference over the 49ers even though the 49ers won more games within the conference. That's stupid, too. Am I asking too much? Think of all the travel miles my suggestion would save. I would still want to see games like USC-Notre Dame and this wouldn't interfere with the arrangement. What do you think?

Changes on NutshellSports.com (or possibly NutsHellSports.com)

David Wilson has been maintaining our (his and mine) Superlists as well as my NFL and NCAA Football Historical retrodictive ratings for some time. Since my time is short I have decided to drop a lot of the things on my site in favor of having more time to work on David's directory. I am cutting my site down to the following pages: NCAA Football, NFL Football, MLB, NBA (all the preceding include my ratings, The Girl's ratings, and the Combos), the CFL, and UFL. The last two are easy because there aren't many games. I will no longer be maintaining the NFL and NCAA Odds. Those are time-consuming and have provided no income. I've already seen what I suspected - the the odds makers rank the teams similar to the way I do, although they get to add a lot of factors into the week that I can't because, after all, I'm ranking the teams, not the next game. Thus the only really time-consuming thing I will be doing is the NCAA Football. The NBA and MLB are time consuming as well but don't interfere much with football. Kind of makes me wish I had taken the time to learn programming skills.

Monday, May 24, 2010

Update

The number of sites that have been updated are now 98 out of 114. There will also be a few new sites added. We're getting there. A good number of previously listed raters have been removed from the page but we're still looking for their ratings and interesting stuff. Once the main page is updated we will begin to replace the other pages as well. The number of people volunteering their time and effort to maintain David Wilson's directory is growing. Remember that we appreciate any help or ideas you would be willing to contribute. Our goal is to keep David's directory the best on the Web because we use it, too.

Article for Ambitious Sports Raters

Soren Sorensen has an article posted as a PDF called "An Overview of Some Methods for Ranking Sports Teams" for those who think they want to pursue this great hobby but don't yet know how to start.

SporTrends

SporTrends Power Ratings have been updated.

Soren Sorensen

Soren Sorensen's Ratings have been updated.

Missing Rater

Does anyone know where Robert Rohde has disappeared to?

Jeff Self

Jeff Self's Football Ratings have been added thanks to Jon Rogers locating them. Jeff is in the process of moving his site.

Caleb Sayre

The Sayre College Football Rankings are updated but it is uncertain as to whether or not they are going to be active this season. If Caleb or anyone else knows, please let me in on it.

Jeff Sagarin

Jeff Sagarin, the one who really popularized computer sports ratings through the first national newspaper, USA Today, is updated.

Getting Down the First Page

The College Football page is the most popular page in our directory. David Wilson has been maintaining this page for a long time. Once we get the current entries updated, we will be adding some links Jon Rogers has rounded up. Then we will tackle the rest of the directory. I hope you will see the complete updated directory by the beginning of the football season.

New Contributor

Jon Rogers has joined our team as a contributor and watchdog. He will be overseeing certain pages in the directory. Lots of thanks for the work he has already put in which you will see later.

Sef Dresslar

Huckleberry's College Football Ratings have been updated.

Sunday, May 16, 2010

Standing

As of this post, all but 25 ratings are updated on the College Football page. The next page I will do is the Additional Listings page. I will move the items there to the masterpage and post the new College Football page and Additional Listings page. Everything after that will be simple - move the links on any given page to the masterpage, then copy all the relative information as the new page, the replacement. Someday I'll get around to cleaning up the HTML.

Extent of Update

All items from Scott Albrecht to Mike Sabin are updated. Some entries after that are also updated - about ten. The sad part is that the five (in which I or my wife is involved) of the 25 remaining ratings are still waiting. I'm outdated!

David Rothman

This item has been checked.

Mike Rudicille

This item has been checked.

Contribute Useful News

You can also contribute items you find interesting here. If I think it fits within the guidelines and really is interesting, I will post it here and David or I may place a link to it in the directory or elsewhere.

Contributors and Watchdogs

You can help maintain this directory by helping to gather information. You can also be a watchdog by letting us know when something is amiss. See the Contributors page.

Robert Rohde

He says he doesn't have time to maintain his site. I can relate to that. Hopefully, later, he can start it up again.

Another Missing Rater

Anyone know what happened to Michael Reid of Combined College Football Ratings?

Mario Rappi

sportheory Ratings is updated.

Kent Novick

BoCaDuck is coming back this season. His previous season's listing is posted.

Wednesday, May 12, 2010

Sad Day

Last Monday, I think, I updated a couple more listings. Then my Internet and I had an argument. We didn't make up that day so no more got done. I had a meeting to attend and right before the meeting the Internet started working. What a lovely day it was. I don't see any problems this coming Sunday or Monday. Unless the police show up to arrest me for something I haven't done yet I'm going to tell whoever has a problem that I'm just too busy and football season is approaching. I tried to get this done before last season and I'll be darned if I'm going to let it beat me again.

Lost Weekend

Time was not good to me this week. Got nothing done. More work for next weekend.

Sunday, April 18, 2010

Important Note

Whenever I add a site, I try to find all the ratings of other sports and other important pages. I am only working on the main page at the moment but will add the other things I find when I get to those pages. When I do add a page, you will be told here. I have everything on one massive page that I will use to make the various pages of the directory. If you want to be up to date, sign up for the RSS or Atom Feed.

Compughter Ratings have been updated.

Another Missing Rater Added to List

Anybody know what happened to Kevin Picklesimer? I've added him to the list of missing.

Details

Here is the order of the next few projects:

1. gather all information from NCAA page along with search through each site
2. gather all information from More page
3. post new NCAA Football listings
4. get new NFL and NCAA systems from Massey and Beck pages
5. get NFL page information
6. post new NFL page

Beyond that will depend on which pages get the most visitors for the week. That's the short list. We don't want to miss anyone and we want you to be able to find what you want.

Good News and Bad News

Well, the bad news is that this weekend is trashed as far as updating goes. The good news is that the bank problem and the IRS have been gotten under control. Next weekend looks much brighter. Look for updates then. Hopefully, at least one day this week, I'll have some time to post a few sites. Once I finish NCAA Football I will begin adding things from the Additional Info page, then move to the NFL. I have a list to go by so I won't get lost. I'll keep you updated.

Justin Moore

This entry has been updated.

You Can Add Things, Too

If you find something particularly interesting that relates to the directory material - for example, an interesting article or chart - post a comment. If it's interesting but doesn't fit, I might add a page of links outside the project but on the site.

Another Note

When I get to the bottom of the college football list I will go back down from A to Massey to check what I did. Once I have done that I will start adding signals as they are explained on the directory page. I probably will use red lights to show that I failed to get a site. If I go down the list and don't find the entry again, it will be hidden. If I find it later I will re-add it.

That Catches Me Up plus a NOTE

Okay, those are the new entries and changes. The rest won't be coming so fast. I will let you know when there are more. This is your directory. Currently I am only working on the College Football page. The next thing I will do once it is complete is to add the "Additional Links" page information. That page will be replaced with a page that lists all the sports each person(s) rates and links to get to those pages. The NFL page will be next, followed by the NCAA Basketball page. I'll keep you updated. So send that information about the college football listings because you want this directory to be clean and function well. It's your home base.

Since I Have your Attention ...

This was previously a list of raters that have disappeared. Some showed up and most of them won't. In any case, if you find anything that needs to be updated, including your own site, post a reply here and it will get to me. Then I will update it as soon as possible.

Kenneth Massey Completed

Okay, all is well, now. Kenneth Massey and all the list up to his entry has been updated.

Recovering from Football

Okay, I had been updating the directory until I got to Kenneth Massey's site. It bogged downed the old laptop. So I got a new laptop that was much faster. It bogged down. Yet I think I have recovered sufficiently from football season that I can now tackle it a different way. Keep watching here and I will let you know when I'm finished.
