    See my thread in the draft section of this forum:

    http://forums.theganggreen.com/showthread.php?t=24848

    I update the draft order weekly.

    Second person to ask about this in the last day or so. You guys should really deviate from the Jets or BS forums every now and then.

    The Strength of Schedule jumps up when you take into account the teams we will play still (NE, CLE, TEN, KC). KC is the only team with a losing record.
    I haven't calculated the standings for this past week yet, but as of last week, our opponents winning percentage for every team we faced and will face in the next 4 weeks was .523. This amount is significantly higher than the .486 for the teams we have played. As of last week, that .523 figure placed us as the 10th hardest schedule.

    While I agree that strength of schedule is not the excuse for our lousy season some may cite, you have to realize there are multiple ways to look at the same picture.

    Yes but U did not say you had erred genius. Afraid to admit you posted something you knew NOTHING about?

    See this was your post not NY Junc post which was incorrect

    Of the two other games in the season, one is usually set up as some sort of "rivalry" game. This year happens to be Herm. In previous years it's been the Raiders.

    I just recalculated the standings and I believe our opponents win loss percentage for the entire season is .521 or 100-92. That actually will rank us tied for eighth hardest schedule. Certainly not something to write off.

    One question: Based on Opponents win-loss percentage, shouldn't that be sorted in decending order? A higher win-loss percentage by your opponent means generally you played tougher teams. That would make us tied for 2nd. Isn't that right? Maybe I don't get it............

    Are you really THAT retarded?

    What the hell am I asking, I know the answer already. So just for you, Chump, here's what I responded with:

    For someone who is always talking about his mastery of "internet speak" you have ZERO GRASP of the modern use of English in America.

    The term "my bad" means "I made a mistake, sorry about that", without having to type or say the whole thing. It's generally well understood by anyone above the age of 3.

    As for knowing nothing, exactly HOW do I know NOTHING about the subject? I'm aware of the realignment. I'm aware of the change in the way the schedules revolve based on divisions.

    You really need to find a purpose in life Chump. You're a total failure at the internet.

    You don't get rewarded for playing tougher teams.

    Yes but that does not account for our present record. As of right now our record is way worse than last year and we've played an easier schedule.
