    I will ad something that accounts for playing a team on their best week and something that accounts for losing on your best week, and winning on your worst week. All of these are relatively minor though in terms of the luck of the schedule you play though and some of it is double counting.
    Just do EPW's way. It's a lot easier and does the same thing. You're trying to build a convoluted way of expressing the same thing that EPW does easily by answering the question "How would someone have done any given week if they played anyone else?"

        Well I hate to say it but in our league it's pretty boring. Only two people are more than -1 win, and only two are more than +1 win. I think you can safely guess from my luckometer.

        • As per your gripe about losing to Jag on your best week, you and duke are the only people to lose on your best week, and Jag is the only one to win on his worst week. And they weren't even the same week.

              • Am I reading that right for me and snoopy being around 50-50 meaning half of our wins were either with us the leading scorer or against the dead-last scorer and with half of our losses being against the #1 team or with us being dead-last in scoring?

                Seems awfully high.

                  Guy is especially nuts with 3 of his 5 wins being guaranteed.

                    As you can see, Snoopy is the only team to have lost while being in the top 3, and has played 4 teams on their best of the season week.

                    Al, Famous and guy have each won a game while they were in the bottom 3.

                      • I'm looking forward to another crappy performance from Ronnie Brown tomorrow. It's either him, J. Stewart, or a waiver wire pickup.

                        • The only thing Brown has going for him is QB injuries. Maybe they'll rely on their RB's. Plus, Brown might could pick up points in the Wildcat, to avoid using a QB.

                                As unbelievable as it is, JStew has been worse than Brown this year. Brown is going up against the Raiders, which is a plus, while Stewart is going up against Cleveland, who has much better run d. Stewarts also going to be RB #2 as well. So I guess I have to go with Ronnie boy.
