Hey all,

I figured we should bring this back for the 2012 year so see how all the teams are progressing. See below for where I feel things currently stand.

Please please feel free to disagree with any of the information below (this is how the list gets improved). Also please help me fill out teams for recent years, although we'll find some newer teams proving themselves much more in St. Louis this year.

I respect consistency and history for all of these teams, but if two are even, I will place more weight on recent performance.
Seedings and Selections can often tell more of the story than actual championship wins, so feel free to hit me with some of that info too.
