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?

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."

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.

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.
