'03 Girls FBR Rankings - 03-07-13
O.K. This should keep the crankiness going on the boards for another day or so... Called my bookie in Vegas and got my $$$ down on which team I get the first nasty-o-gram about...
Weekly '03 FBR Disclaimer:
SRSA '03 Solca has dropped from the FBR rankings due to having played fewer than 3 games against NTX '03 girls opponents during the current FBR ranking history period. SRSA '03 Solca is the de-facto #1 girls team in NTX until they are beaten by another '03 girls team from somewhere in the known universe (or even the unknown universe for that matter...).

This should get some people talking for sure?

Multiple examples from '01's and '02's where teams with "poor" W-L records from playing strong competition were ranked near and/or ahead of teams with "good" W-L records from playing weaker competition, where the accuracy of FBR was proven out by LHGCL QT results and subsequent performance in LHGCL at U11.
Will spare everyone the details again unless someone insists on me posting the examples...

Okay that makes sense. I think even Mr. Lockwood could understand that.

When I deleted the oldest week of results from the database this week, that dropped LA Moreno below the 3 game minimum that I require to list a team in the rankings. For some reason, LA Moreno has not played any games during the first couple of weeks of EAL, and isn't scheduled to play any games until 3/17. Once they get back above the 3 game minimum in their history, they will show back up in the rankings. Looks like that will happen around the end of this month.
Sting North Garrett in EAL is a typo that I will correct. I think at one time, they were being listed as playing in EAL, but looks like they decided to stick with SDL.

FCD Premier's 7 losses are to:
#1 RASE
#2 FC East
#3 Sting G (but also have a draw against Sting G)
#4 DT South
#6 Fever
#9 Sting M(but also have a W against Sting M)
#12 LP Keegan (but also have a W against LP Keegan)
All of these losses (except 0-4 to Sting G) are by 1 or 2 goal margins.
2 draws against #13 D'Feeters
Worst result in their history is a draw against #22 GSSC Thunder.
They also have W's over:
#5 LP Rush (3-0)
#11 Cosmos
#14 Sting West
Depending on how you slice and dice all of the results, I believe that anywhere between #6-#9 is a legitimate spot for FCD Premier right now.

Keegan
silentparent wrote:Looks like the questions on who should have been in tgpl gold have been settled, LP Rush should have been picked instead of LP Keegan or Sting West.
So much angst on this board about Keegan which I just don't "get" ... They currently sit 7th out of 12 in TGPL Gold posting a 2-2-0 record. Their 2 losses are to teams currently sitting #2 and #3 in the standings - so while not world beaters, they are squarely in the middle-of-the-pack. It seems to me that at this point in time, there are 5 other teams that need to be brought into this discussion about the merits of being accepted into TGPL Gold before we ever get to Keegan. Unless, that is, there is some unwritten rule about having a max of 2 teams per academy participating in a league -- in that case, let's discuss the merits of Sting first since I believe that they have 3 in TGPL Gold ...
To me, it sounds like this should be more of a discussion around the merits of Rush or others as opposed to the bias(?) shown Keegan. I get it: Keegan is - as flygirl states, "inconsistent" - but other than the top 5 teams, who isn't at this stage?

i just think frankly it was odd for Keegan to be promoted into Gold and Dfeeters to be sent into silver. I have watched Keegan, Rush and the Dfeeters play. I think Rush is a better team and have done better in tournaments than Keegan. Keegan has also never beat them. Now having said that Keegan is a good team that is very inconsistent, even losing to our FCD Suarez friends. I think they are a good team but should be in Silver. I also agree about the Sting teams but that is a different can of worms...

Yes, you are correct on that. My bad for the mis-statement.

So, please help me understand that. Thanks!!
I keep the last 16 weeks worth of results in the database. So each week, as I add new results, I am also deleting old results. Just so happens that over the past 3 weeks, Polaris has both added and dropped 2 W's and a Draw. Therefore, record stays the same.
Then, you have to compare the relative strength of the results that have been added, to the results that have been dropped, not just for Polaris, but also for all of the teams that have moved ahead of Polaris in the past 3 weeks. That is what will explain the overall movement in the rankings.
If you need a detailed breakdown of this for Polaris and the 6 teams that have moved ahead of them in the rankings over the past 3 weeks, I can give it to you, but it will take a bit of time to summarize that, and I do not have that time this afternoon.

What constitutes a "point" in the FBR?
