This is probably the right breakdown. Can't disagree with any of this.
Baby, come back. Please. Daddy misses you.

I ranked 11. I'll try to go deeper if need be but I think much beyond that, it's a matter of which day/week you are playing. I actually think a tier system would be more accurate.
Tier 1 - the eaglez tier. nuff said
Tier 2 - the best player not named Eaglez. Toogs and Rommy headlined this list at some points but both have shown enough chinks in their armor recently, that I'd bump them down. This is just Ryala and GAT for me
Tier 3 is for players that can dominate a game but are inconsistent. This is where toogs and the 3 guys from KU ride now (gooner gets a bad rap from some. He can play). Da, Tic, QT and I threw SD3 in there because he's been the most consistent across the board of the guys that I'm learning or remembering from the way back machine. I think toogs said it best --- there are a group of 20-25 players that really make it enjoyable. Btw, redwing was definitely an upper tier player back in the day but I think he may just have too many distractions right now.
The last tier would be for the people that fuck up the games with ridiculous distraction or consistent AAs. I remember PH as a pretty decent player and it disappoints me to see him wreck some of these games. I remember knight as a very good player, not consistently good but definitely passionate. Then something happened. I'm not sure if it was everyone trying to imitate rommy, who had a unique and fun style or what. A few loved it and encouraged it but it basically drove a silent majority away from playing. I don't question knight's talent, I question his sanity. The last of this group are the guys that actively don't play. You did nothing to earn your win if you got it.
I swear I could take the next 15 players on my list, rank them and if you asked me to do it blind tomorrow, it would change. I fall somewhere in there and I'm quite happy to be there.
I think it would be better if these were secret ballots, but whatever.
If you would like, I can provide recaps for what everyone did during the week. Post it on Fridays for people to have as a reference for voting.
there are no bad players anymore who play regularly. The only “bad” players are those who don’t participate. Not hyperbole. I think everyone (myself included) is within a pretty small gap from each other so long as they’re actively participating and playing.

mostly agree, but don't think we've seen the so-called eagles fastball in 2020
i ranked ryala 1 and eagles 2
So far with 14 rankings in we have:
eagles - 10 first-place votes
ryala - 3 first-place votes
gouda - 1 first-place vote
Gouda just got a chub and gooner just deflated
Gouda just got a chub and gooner just deflated
Your rankings by the populace would surely increase if you go back to Taz.
I don’t know why my brain holds onto random shit like that.
