[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]1. Robo
2. Langley
3. Battlefield
4. Madison
5. Yorktown
6. Freedom
7. Cosby
8. Hayfield 
9. Mclean 
10. West Potomac[/quote]

I think McLean should be at 7, above Cosby and Hayfield.  But, I think the 1-6 is spot on. [/quote]

1) Robo- Every team below them has some serious questionable games or opponents 
2) Battlefield- looks like they played last Thur/Fri and are 3-0
3) Freedom- 8-0 is 8-0 
4tie) Hayfield 7-0 is 7-0
4tie) Langley 3 less goals over 2 games last week and they would have been out of the top 10
6) McLean- came close but failed both tough tests so far 
7) Cosby- Only real test at Atlee and they came up 2 short, same as Madison
8) Madison- 5-5 is .500 ball. Its not about potential or injury but what the scoreboard says
9) Yorktown- at 4-3 should be above Madison but for 1 in OT, could be above Langley but for 1 in OT too.
10) No one stands out- but could be a 5 way tie among teams.

Before you get all up in arms (and do I care NO). I am more of a believer in ranking based on W/L and a snapshot of today, and I mean today what is the team doing right now and what is the record, therefore my rankings can swing week to week. I don't like to factor in "potential", past results, injury or much else. H2H and total record is a LARGE deciding factor to me. Woulda, Coulda, Shoulda is not factored in here.

[i]Parcells has a famous quote the encapsulates his philosophy about excellence which says, [b]“You are what your record says you are.”[/b] Results speak for themselves.
While in life the little things do matter, you are [b]ultimately judged by the results you deliver[/b]. Your friendly disposition, generosity, good heart, while all incredibly important, are meaningless to the extent you don’t deliver the results.
Most people let others and society define themselves. I believe true character and purpose comes from defining oneself. Bill Parcells knew it was only his record each year that mattered. All past success and titles were just that: past. [b]What truly mattered was the very moment in which he lived and produced results[/b].[/i]

This ranking is pretty funny.  Madison has played Maryland’s 2 best publics, Riverside, and Atlee.  Putting themselves to the test and getting better.  Which 6A would have won one or more of those games?[/quote]
