Rankings Update 8/17: My Final Breakdown

rankings trophy

Once upon a time, in December 2011, I began writing for RotoGrinders. One article a week that should have taken me half an hour tops. All of the rankings change calculations were supposed to be done in excel but I lied just a little and may have implied I knew more about it than I actually did. So for the first 3 months of writing this, I manually typed in every player’s ranking for both the current week and the week prior.

So instead of that 30 minute window it took me about 2 hours to post this each. Why am I telling you that incredibly boring story? Because this is my rankings article swan song. Almost 2 full years and just under 60 rankings articles later, I finally get to pass the torch along to someone else.

With that in mind, we have some special additions to the rankings article today. But first let’s flash back to where it all began.

Weekly Grinder Rankings Update: 12/13/11

Alright well that’s my reminiscing for the day. Best of luck to whoever takes this bad boy over for me and I really hope I don’t have to come back and write this again next week, or I’m gonna look like an absolute idiot.
