Quote:I suspect that these magazines like Lindy's they don't have much incentive to rate us higher, due to the fact that we are a small market.   They're in the business of selling magazines.  

 

Too cynical?  

I dunno, TBH.

 

I am a cynic, and yeah I could see that, but if they are in the business of selling magazines, to the extent people rely on them for information, if they were ignoring open and obvious facts to make their prognistication just to make sales, their sales would diminish...at least I would think so.

 

As for Pirkster's take, it makes sense the mags should take a wait and see approach and that the perception lags at least a year behind schedule.

 

I remember when Dallas won the Super Bowl for the 1992 season, they had the #1 defense in the league, but no Pro Bowlers on that defense.  The next year, there were Pro Bowlers on the defensive side of the ball.
