I have seen rankings in any sport on any level that make sense. The NCAA, a billion dollar industry, can't even get it right. If football and basketball teams that have every game televised.
I have no problem with the polls and the way they are done. If we aren't listed, we use that as motivation to work harder and if we are listed then we use that as motivation to stay there.
In the words of House of Pain "The cream of the crop rise to the top" I'll stop there because I like bacon....a lot!
well said
