Good day to you all, and welcome to this week’s edition of the Power Rankings.
A reminder that your fan experience directly correlates to your ability to handle success graciously. Each year, we see a team that had been stuck in the weeds for some time emerge with a modicum of know-how, and each year we see their fans turn into semimilitant scream bots unaware of the fact that they’re spending a majority of their day turning themselves inside out on the internet for little to no benefit.
A second reminder: Your team’s success may (and likely will be) temporary. Just enjoy it! Power Rankings are a fun way to digest what has happened the week before. The fact that we are doing it weekly signals inherent change. Underlying it all is our collective goal, which is to understand a team over the course of 17 games.
