1972 Dolphins Ranking Formula

Lately I've been doing alot of football research and decided to change the formula for my ranking system. In the past everything was based on the 1972 Dolphins regular season stats. Now I've included two new categories: playoffs and strength of schedule. Everything needs to be adjusted so that the 72 Dolphins will have a rating of 100.00%. Well it turns out that the 72 Dolphins based on stats alone, were not that great. So, I then changed the ratios of how I weigh the stats, placing more emphasis on wins opposed to yards.

Old formula: Winning Percentage (1/3), Margin per victory (1/3), Yardage Margin (1/3)

old youtube video explaining it here ---> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixwDCgFs-W4

New Formula: Winning Percentage (4/7), Margin per victory (2/7), Yardage Margin (1/7)

The whole point of ranking NFL teams originally was to reward lesser known teams that had great stats with no championships. Now, I've stressed more importance on WINS and points and saved my yardage stats more for handicapping games (61% in 2010).

The Making of "The Greatest Tragedy in Sports"

I've decided on 5/31/2010 as the date I'll release my 2+ hour documentary about the NBA and the 2002 Western Conference Finals. The first 87 minutes are completed and I'm hoping to get 2 hours in by the release date. However, my computer keeps freezing during editing, and I barely get anything done each day. I often find myself wanting to quit, but something about the 2002 team inspires me to keep going.

Who is the greatest NFL team ever?

During the offseason of between 2009 and 2010, I plan on simulating a 512 team tournament consisting of every NFL playoff team since 1966.

Who is NFLranking?

I'm a Sacramento Kings fan, who claims to be better than the oddsmakers in VEGAS at handicapping NFL games. I have a very heated relationship with the Casinos and sports leagues which mostly deals with game 6, 2002 of the Western Conference Finals. It was that game that has forever tainted the integrity in sports and despite happening 7 years ago, continues to be a hot topic today thanks to ex-referee Tim Donaghy.

On my youtube channel, I made a video about game 6, 2002 WCF, the game that Tim Donaghy alleges was fixed. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhlGYvIMPgQ

It has received 344,000+ views and will hopefully someday crack the top 100 sports videos of all time on youtube.
