BPR Explanation
The BPR attempts to statistically rank each team's performance in each Yahoo category. This is done in 3 steps:
 1. Each team's average score in each category is calculated (Table 1 above)
 2. Each team's rank (based on average) in each category is calculated (Table 2 above)
 3. The BPR is a sum of category rankings. The lower your BPR, the higher your team ranks.

In Table 3, these BPR's are calculated:
   Hit BPR = sum of ranks of all hitting categories,
   Pitch BPR = sum of ranks of all pitching categories,
   Total BPR = sum of hitting + pitching PBPRs,
   BPR Win % = (130-PBPR)/130... this is your PBPR-predicted winning percentage,
   BPR Wins = PBPR Win % * Week # * 13... this is your PBPR-predicted number of wins in the current week of the season.

That is all... yow, bill
