That's great stony I look forward to your first official set of rankings January 2nd 2016.

I use your rankings weekly to update wrestling fans on what District 5 and District 6 wrestlers moved up or down. I don't claim to have a better knowledge than you or anyone else out there. I merely wanted to know what people thought about Scott's ranking and I seem to be the only one that doesn't understand it, so I can live with that. It was in no way a personal attack on you or your ranking system. If you stick by your rankings then I understand. Again my apologies.

[markdugan]

That's fine no apology needed, I do this because I enjoy it. I believe in my system and the network and relationships that I have built over the last 23 years.

[Stonycreek]

I believe in the system too (even if my comments before on Scott's ranking said different) and I don't want to diminish your hard work over the years. I and the wrestling community support and appreciate what you do. I really didn't want my comments to offend anyone and I can see how it came off that way. You do a good job ranking wrestlers and it makes for good conversation. My thanks to you and everyone else who puts in the time and effort for this great sport.

Thank You

As much as I enjoy the banter, I think a key to doing accurate rankings is actually getting out to see most of these guys wrestle in person. Also, establishing a great network of knowledgeable sources is very valuable. I'm not sure you can attempt to evaluate people you haven't seen wrestle. Nor can you compare those you've seen against those you haven't.

Did I just compliment Dugan? HA
