    Notes:

    Interesting are the discrepancies between the pythagorean and Foos rankings of New England and Kansas City. KC jumped from 9th to 2nd in the Foos rankings due to the fact that they managed to score against Seattle. Seriously. New England, OTOH, seems to be performing strongly against bad teams, and poorly against good ones.

    I'm thinking about switching the primary sort order (and first column ranking) to the Foos ranking. I think it's a bit more accurate than straight pythagorean. Maybe next week.

    No predictions until I figure out a way to automate it. Too many games, too much work. I still need to automate the creation of this table, tho I've pretty much got it down to a science.
