Using the MySportsmanship.com rating system, site members (and only site members) can voice their interest in a video by rating that video on a 0-to-5 star scale: 0 being no stars awarded for that video (no interest/zero appeal) and 5 being the most stars awarded (of highest interest/greatest appeal). Users can award 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 stars for as many videos as they like. Typically, the video a user enjoys most will be awarded 5 stars; the video he/she enjoys least will be awarded 0 stars, and so on…

Remember, users -- how many stars you award to a video tells how highly you would recommend that video to other MySportsmanship.com site members.
