- They are called the undisputed kings of football, but can Brazil live up to their billing at this year's FIFA World Cup? How does one rate the performance of the US football team against the magnificent Czechs? Here's an opportunity to write about your favorite football team, review and criticize performances. Or, quite simply, predict this year's winner!
Cherry Hill, New Jersey, June 17, 2006: Will Brazil ride on the Ronaldo-Ronaldinho wave and win a record sixth world championship? Or, will they stumble like all favorites?
Did the first week of the FIFA World Cup 2006 live up to its stature as the greatest showcase of world sport? Did it create the excitement and euphoria befitting the world's biggest sporting extravaganza?
ResponsePlanet.com, the open public feedback forum for rants, reviews and ratings, has announced a campaign inviting sports fans, and particularly football fans all over the world, to answer all of the above questions and more.
"Rating sports and sportspersons is quite common-in tennis, we have the ATP ratings or the WTA ratings, in golf, we have the PGA rankings, in cricket, there are the ICC cricket ratings for both teams and individual cricketers. However, these ratings are generally nothing more than a compilation of statistics based on results-of matches won or scores generated. Moreover, these ratings are generated by the professional bodies running these particular sports and therefore very limited in terms of how sports lovers truly rate sportspersons," said Jonathan Gropper, co-founder of ResponsePlanet.com
These "official ratings" seldom, if ever, reflect how well a particular sportsperson, his/her unique strengths and contribution to the entertainment value of sport, the spirit in which they played the game and all such vital subjective parameters that form a more accurate reflection of the person or team. "ResponsePlanet.com, however, presents this opportunity to fans to rate sports and sportspersons, subjectively---- and let the world know why you think the way you do. Like it or hate it-have a say. Since the FIFA World Cup is the flavor of the month and probably one of the most universally binding forces, we are inviting football fans to express themselves and write about their favorite teams and players. All they have to do is to go to the "Rate Sports" section of www.responseplanet.com, write their commentary or post their views. A more subjective rating and public review will shed much more light on what soccer fans really think of these sportspersons," adds Jonathan.
ResponsePlanet.com also gives citizens of the world the opportunity to rate and review a host of other subjects, including movies, companies, politicians and schools and universities.
