Hard sometimes to not get emotionally invested, but when you consider it's just some guys opinion, you realize that it's kind of just a joke.
Flo really needs to take a look at improving these and putting together some kind of structure to base these on. While they are not a serious organization like AP or USA Today, these rankings are used by other outlets, like BTN, as a measuring stick and present them as factual and real.
You might not be able to get coaches to vote on them on a weekly or even every other week basis, but 1 guys thoughts are probably not the way to go, especially when the mathematical equation is "gut feeling".
Also having the ranker get on twitter after posting them and asking people to tell him where he messed up, is not a good look and makes others, like BTN, look stupid for using them.
Time for Flo to take another step in the direction of becoming an ESPN type of organization by investing a little more thought in to a concrete process for these rankings.
