Calculated Rankings -- 5/17/08

Here's one of the features I'm gonna try to implement, it's a calculated power ranking. This is going to be a different ranking than my own personal ones, which should generally be published around the same time. The placements are calculated using a weighted system which includes factors such as Pythagorean record, recent performance and opponents record. It is still a work in progress, so there could be some adjustments to the formula as the season goes on.
