@be_homestead@deestiv 10 excused absences + autumn break; thanksgiving; CHRISTmas break; spring break; all the other holidays and admin days the kids get off; plus summer .... if you can't make that work, you got a you problem.
@LSDFootball@AZSPORTSNETWORK@DB1096865331002 I am arguing the opposite. Playoffs are kill or be killed.
This "who is ranked #1 or #2" is an AzSportnetwork problem. Its like who has the prettier dress.
The rightful #1 shouldn't be afraid to go thru the #2 or #3 in the playoffs. #1-#4 all get home games until semi's
@AZSPORTSNETWORK@DB1096865331002@LSDFootball The humor is lost on you. Point is: none of this matters really.
All the rankings serve is who gets into the playoffs (after region winners if thats the case for that conference) and seeding.
Team getting in by the skin of the teeth (via rankings) get destroyed in rnd 1 or 2.
@AZSPORTSNETWORK@LSDFootball@studmuffin4cm When the AIA was incorporating some of the MaxPreps 'data' into their own ranking algorithm years prior to this year, the AIA 'limit' was 'capped at 14'.
99.9% sure the AIA published that
@AZSPORTSNETWORK@DB1096865331002@LSDFootball You are worried about how the insides of a swiss watch works (i don't know either).... best just to keep an eye on the time.
That whole direct-win-or-loss-over-an-opponent everyone is crying about is a key feature of the playoffs or so I am told.
@AZSPORTSNETWORK@LSDFootball Just now you said 'we were told pts don't matter' now you are saying 'the cap was 21'. That would imply points matter.
@studmuffin4cm was going to research that '21 pt' thing.
@AZSPORTSNETWORK@LSDFootball I don't remember that at all.
Show me the quote where the AIA or MP stated: "points don't matter" (your words)
I 'member the question coming up, & people looking at the FAQ questions page, and seeing the MP language that pts differential does matter, but there is a cap/ceiling .
@AZSPORTSNETWORK@LSDFootball "they stated that pts didnt matter"
No one ever said that^. Seems like it was understood points mattered, just there was (per MaxPreps FAQ page) some undisclosed 'cap' to it.
Sure,some will talk themselves into the cap is much higher,for an excuse to run up scores / pad stats
@LSDFootball@BHarr87@HPace35@hsfootballfan23 Wife said we didnt have it in the budget for me to get that new sweet side by side for quail season this year.
So i called an audible and bought it last Friday.
@BHarr87@HPace35@hsfootballfan23 Wasn't like he was behind center, in formation, & seeing 8 or 9 in the box...
"kill kill kill! ohama! blue 32 blue 32"
...& ran the preprogrammed alternate play, and made a bad decsion.
But media keeps saying "ran an audible". This is standard of facts the media is going with.
@BHarr87@HPace35@hsfootballfan23 Example of one of the problems with the media's 'facts':
Seems people, media, & even sports-media seem to not know what an 'audible' is. The kid said himself in an interview, he changed the play in the huddle from what was called in from the sideline/coach.
@BHarr87@HPace35@hsfootballfan23 "Son, we live in a world that has walls..."
many people (even a player) have said publicly on social media QB had disciplinary issues before.
This was a case of all sides putting all their chips in the center of the table & no one had a good hand, losers all the way around.
@smac500 The "parents" thing is funny, at least they are emotionally invested into their kids athletic 'careers' or whatever .... too much so can be a bad thing.
Ever coached at a school/sport where almost every parent doesn't care at all? Thats worse in many ways
@studmuffin4cm Payson has played RV(lost), and RV has a lot of mojo points to glean from in that loss. ALAMN hasn't had their chance yet against RV.
If ALAMN keeps it close (or wins lol), they will surely jump up quite a bit. ALAMN str# will jump
Crismon beat PRCA, GC, & #12 in 4a Eastmark
@LSDFootball@AZSPORTSNETWORK yeah SOS but also point differential.
Williams beat PV(NV) by a lot, and evidentially they are pretty good. Also beat #3 MALC and Mog decidedly in those games. All these wins were 25~30 pt diff.
Hayden over Mog & St.David by only 2 pts, & beat Williams by only 8 (one TD)
