I give the team an A because they ARE overachieving.How can anyone give the team an "A?" I agree that they have overachieved a exceeded expectations but this is still a league where you are competing against other teams. I would think that an "A" team would be in first place and truly elite. If the Islanders get an A, what does Tampa Bay get? A++++++++?
I give the Islanders a B minus right now.
Meh, I don't see it that way at all. So a team in 9th place gets an "A" because they are overachieving but a team in 2nd may hypothetically get "C" because they are underachieving? That's not grading on a curve that's grading in a vacuum.I give the team an A because they ARE overachieving.
Life is graded on a curve.
Different situations, different expectations.Meh, I don't see it that way at all. So a team in 9th place gets an "A" because they are overachieving but a team in 2nd may hypothetically get "C" because they are underachieving? That's not grading on a curve that's grading in a vacuum.

Sorry I forgot the sarcasm smiley.Do you know how a curve works? At all?
If you’re grading this team on a curve it cannot possibly be an A. When grading on a curve, the top performers only get an A.

I was expecting us to have 15 less points at halfway of the season. Overachieving that heavily gets an A from me.
You give your grades how ever you want, I give like this.

You do seem like someone who does not have ability to really "like" anything, so I'll gladly accept your "well done".Since I still don't have my ability to "like", I give you a "well done".
Compared to the league vs expectations.
They get an A in one category and a B in the other for me.

As a matter of fact Tampa would get an A++++++. They are clearly the class of the league so far and it’s not even close.How can anyone give the team an "A?"

Just curious, why didn’t you give F’s to NJ, Detroit and Chicago? I think they deserve them, especially NJ.[TBODY] [/TBODY]

Can they write a paper about August Belmont?I give them a B+, but if they do an extra credit report on Harriet Tubman it's an A-.
Wow. That's quite the statement. The season's still young but as of now I'll easily take 1993, 2002, 2015 and 2016.It all depends on how you want to look at things.
I give them an A for several reasons, but mainly because this is the funnest team I have seen since the 80's...

Those teams where not as fun to me as they were not as consistent...Wow. That's quite the statement. The season's still young but as of now I'll easily take 1993, 2002, 2015 and 2016.
