STATISTICS:

Columns:
        Team - 2- or 3-letter abbreviation of team
        Points - total number of points awarded to a team.  27 points
                 were awarded for a top-choice, 26 for a second,...,
                 and 0 for a last choice.
        Avg. - Average position of the team in ballots received
        Pcnt. - The percent of the total possible points (2133)
                received
        1st - Number of first choice votes received (one person ranked
              the Rams and Raiders tied for favorite, so those teams
              do not have a whole number in this column)
        Last - Number of last choice votes received (if a team was
               tied for last, then it only received a fraction of a
               last-choice vote for that ballot)
