We have reached the mountaintop. For There R Giants’ rankings anyway. Now, as is ever the case, it’s time to look back (though not in anger) and figure out where I messed up — I mean, draw a few conclusions! We’ll slice, we’ll dice, we’ll see if we can spot a few trends, and maybe some places I might have messed up. Finally, we’ll put on our Carmac the Magnificent hat and work on predictions for next year.

Are you ready? Let’s get to The Wrap!

We’ll start by taking a look at the demographics of this year’s list:
