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.

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 I'm outdated!

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.

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.

Eugene Potemkin

The e-Ratings and p-Ratings have been checked and Eugene said he is updating them to finish the previous season.

Saotome Ranma

DKC Ratings have been updated.

Lost Weekend

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

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.

Steve Pugh

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.

Another Missing Rater

Anybody know where Kent Novick has gone? Adding him to the list of missing.

Brian Morgan

This listing has been updated.

Sonny Moore has been Found!

Sonny Moore's ratings are now listed. He also has NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, college men's and women's basketball, hockey, baseball, and Tennessee high school football.

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.

Jon Rogers

This listing has been added.

Eddie Pettis

This listing has been added.

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.

Brian Miller

This listing has been updated.

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.

David Mease

This listing has been updated.

Two More Missing

I've added two more missing raters to the LIST.

Brian McAtee

This entry has been updated.

Scott Maurer

This listing has been updated.

Martien Maas Changes

There have been changes to Martien Maas's listing.

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.

Big CFL Game

You might not have noticed, but a season-record crowd went to watch the second and third best teams shoot it out at Edmonton. The crowd got what they came to see as Calgary marched into town to upset Edmonton 35-34. Just thought you might want to know.

Nutshell Updated

Gave up on the last three games out West. Got up at three-thirty this morning and completed Nutshell NCAA Football Ratings. Nutshell Girl actually finished before I did this week. Posted hers and Nutshell Combo. I'm thinking it would be a good idea to go back to bed and contemplate how we did on Todd Beck's Prediction Tracker. I'll dream about NFL Football kicking in as well as getting our CFL Ratings updated. Isn't football great?

MegaRanking

The reason I am up late is the weather. It rained and my Internet service went poof. Yet I have successfully posted the new MegaRanking - the combination of fans, oddsmakers, and computers.

CFL Ranking Comparison on the Way

Joe Kasulis, a regular contributor to the NFL and CFL sections, is now tracking the CFL Rankings. It will be posted on Nutshell Sports soon for all to see. Of course, it will have its own page. It just seemed that my CFL page would be a logical link until we get it posted. I'll post the actual link on the blog once it's up. I'll also have more news Sunday or Monday.

NFL Odds Ranking is Up

The same team is number one as was last season. However, number two is closing in. It looks like an old rivalry is possible in the Super Bowl. Well, maybe.

The Twits at Twitter

I don't know how many of you are tweeting on Twitter but I will tell you something that might happen to you. Once it does, you will feel the way I do about the twits that run it. I have moved my Tweeting to Jaiku because of this. I will never go back. If Facebook can come along to challenge MySpace, then I am enthusiastic about whoever comes along to challenge Twitter who gets constant free advertising in the media. If there's anyone who doesn't deserve it, it's the twits at Twitter. Here's what happened to me: Link.

More Effort

I will try to keep this blog updated more than last season. I didn't get a very good start but I feel that since it's in David's directory, I'd better supply a little football information. Steve Wrathell has expanded his football ratings to include all levels. The newest entry is Schmidt Computer Ratings. You can click the link on David's directory at http://www.nutshellsports.com/wilson/ .

David's Directory

David Wilson's famous American College Football - Rankings directory is coming along slowly. I've made it down to Kenneth Massey's entry where I suffered great trepidation. There are something like a million links and my browser will be working up a sweat.
