Here is what they have written:Just went on to the YSR site and it states they have shut down. Total bummer!
Tangocity you just became that more important to the SoCal scene.Here is what they have written:
"With much sadness I have decided to shut down this rankings site. My real job has gotten a lot busier recently and I do not have sufficient time to dedicate to keeping this site updated. Thanks to everyone who has contributed over the years."
Sounds like Mark at YSR held to his principals. His product was certainly more objective in how it went about valuing teams then Got Soccer ever will.At one point this fine gentleman who ran the site was approached by serious investors to make a run at being the one true source for rankings and he passed because his intent was never to do it for reasons other than creating a site that would give validity and exposure to those teams playing in any league, tournament, what have you, that was outside the scope of GotSoccer. The site will be missed.

Hopefully there is some objectivity in that. I do appreciate when coaches share their thoughts on other teams and how your own compares.I am perfectly comfortable letting the soccer coaches of Southern CA tell me who has the best team in our region.
They tell us every year when they rank teams for National Cup.I am perfectly comfortable letting the soccer coaches of Southern CA tell me who has the best team in our region.
Thank goodness you are still around.GotSoccer rankings are trash, unless of course they are ranking your team too high.

Gotsoccer is so far off. I was looking just now at some AZ rankings. They have a team ranked 17 that should be 3-5 in the state for its age group. A lot of the teams above it now are in a lower division, etc.
And yes it is VERY flawed when comparing So Cal teams vs other states, etc.
