Tie - Two artists I really like, but their albums that I think are the most grossly overrated.

Re: DIVISIONS: Week 3

Axis- One of my favorites!
Banquet- The Beach Boys rank can be attributed to Pet Sounds being number one and their great collection of singles.
Highway 61- Both are great, but I'm betraying Moonbeam this week.
pass
LZII- One of the best rock albums of all time.
pass

pass
Lets Get it On
Unplugged- tough call
Achtung Baby- Also close
The Clash- pretty close as well
Exodus- Top 20, not close call at all

I'll need to do some listening with my new Spotify account (Thanks again, Brad) to vote on the rest.

Re: RESULTS

Thanks. I did actually email Henrik an excel document with all the standings a couple of days ago. I'm sure he'll put it up when he gets around to it. But this is good for now.

I've edited my post, now the division names are integrated as headers.

If there is an interest, I could do the same for the World Cup standings.

Re: RESULTS

Sorry, Rocky, I should have uploaded the Excel sheet as soon as I got your email. Now Andre beat me to it. His in-thread tables are more convenient to read, aren't they? Let me know if you want me to post the spreadsheet anyway.

Absolutely awesome post, Andre! Will you or Rocky continue to publish the results like that?

I may have to steal this format for the World Cup...

If Andre can give me a tutorial, I'd like to do it. Is it something that can be imported straight from Excel? My standings are a little different. I don't have matches listed (because they've always played the same), I have goal differential as a column and I have points listed at the end.

Rocky, I have all the data in Excel as well (including goal differential) and use long string formulas to import from Excel in this forum.

If you send me the Excel by e-mail (see link below), I can build it in so, for the future, you can post the tables yourself.

Re: RESULTS

Sounds great. I'll email it on Monday because it's on my work computer. Thanks, Andre.

Listyguy, I've posted the same tables in the World Cup thread (standings after week 2). If you have your data in Excel as well, I can, like with Rocky, offer you to build the formulas into your file. Interested?

I saw the tables. Thank you for that. I think I figured out how to post them myself. I will try after week 4 when I post the standings again.
