It was good to see some other hard core fans up in MI. There are quite a few hard core supporters out there. Then a great and funny idea came to me during the long drive home. What if we had a hard core ranking system to give props to those that devote so much of their time and energy to our team. So with all the time back to Canton, i thought up (with some help) a fun way to sort of rank those that may call themselves Hard Core.
Note: this is only a joke and not meant to be taken seriously in any way. If anyone gets offended i apologize. I don't intend this to turn into a popularity contest, but merely a way to have fun talking about dedication to the Crew. If you would like to be considered just post in with your hard coreness and i'll try to place you accordingly.
Now what could we use to measure how hard core someone is? Why not the three most reliable ranking systems man has come up with: Quarterback rating system, the BCS, and “Whose line is it anyway” scoring.
Using these formulas combined would certainly assure an accurate reading. Points can be awarded for many reasons such as attending home matches, open cup matches, reserve games, and offering me free beer. Feel free to add any other ideas. I'll even factor in strength of schedule, that is, distance from the matches you attend.
Feel free to come up with a small ranking of your own and i'll use them as the computer rating averages. Before i develop the first ranking system i'll list a preview using those that attended the open cup.
Remember this is all for fun, sorry if anyone gets offended.
Brook- Started off big with a trip to KC and adds the Open Cup to his already long list of home games attended. Will be tough to beat.
Chelsey-What can be said about the girl who traveled 2 hours to toss pink paper onto the last coach. Starting strong by making all the home matches so far.
Dave Brull- Another Cleveland guy adding the Open Cup trip to his resume.
Froggy's New Pants- The guy drove all the way from Columbus ALONE! Now thats some props. I know i'd get pretty bored.
Nuthouse- Points for DC and the Open Cup, but is there any excuse for missing home matches when you live 10 minutes away? Hmmmm?
Tony Danza- He's the boss!
