Yes, its definitely moved closer to a pro-advertiser model. If you read their ranking fine-print it looks like they suggest an rpi type format but that doesn't get into the volume of scheduling which is an issue for the boys and girls clubs that routinely beat up on each other around here. In contrast the New England teams - exception of LI teams and south - is that they might play one tough tournament and thats it. Its almost like a british youth soccer model. Train, train, train some more and then play. Not saying its right or wrong, but to have them praised for and ranked higher for a 4-1 record versus say a 8-3 record is wrong when they are all playing in top brackets. Good idea, but need to stop co-branding with 91 and Madlax and stick to one or the other to avoid being co-op'ed or even the appearance of.
