It was previously mentioned that Marco Island is the top dog with a 33 game losing streak. But these are the teams that are following behind, and will be entering the 2023 season trying to snap these losing streaks. Here is the top 10


Marco Island Academy 33

Northeast (Oakland Park) 22

Discovery 19

Tampa Freedom 18

Fort Walton Beach 17 (23 on the field)

Pine Ridge 16

Winter Springs 14

Somerset Key 14

Viera 13

Wesley Chapel 12

Wesley Chapel is the one that surprises me.  Hadn't had a losing season in years and then suddenly goes 0-10 last year.  Did they lose a bunch of transfers or a new school open up nearby?  

A couple of other things of note:

  • North Port is in a talent rich area but must be in a demographic void in the area
  • Marco Island is just too isolated and demographically challenged of a community to ever be competitive

Maybe the kids returned to Rockledge and Cocoa ...

That's exactly what happened. Last season and the season before that alot of players returned to Rockledge, Eau Gallie, and Melbourne. The season before that players returned to Cocoa and Rockledge. Their stud DLineman from a couples seasons ago that signed with UF technically would've been zoned for Cocoa.

So, live by the transfer sword, die by the transfer sword. 

Any idea what prompted the exodus?

You are probably on to something as when he left Viera for the AD job at Toho they started getting a few key transfers which enabled them to get into the playoffs within the first 3 or so yeas of existence.  Once he left as well as his HC things at Toho quickly fell apart.

The Viera situation makes me wonder what will happen to Lakeland over the next few years.  As I see it, here are the options: 

(1) Lakeland doesn't skip a beat, as all of the other pieces of the puzzle remain intact and the new head coach knows what to do to keep the system moving forward.

(2) Like many other places, one or two kids will transfer and that will start the process of the rats leaving the ship and there won't be any new game-changing transfers coming into the school and Lakeland will start sliding downhill. 

(3) A representative from Polk County will introduce legislation, and a bill will be passed and signed by the Governor, that prohibits Castle from following through on his resignation and he will remain on the Dreadnaught sidelines for the next 30-40 years, a la Weekend at Bernie's.

Castle seems to be in great shape, but if he lives that long, he will be competing for oldest man in the world by then.

    • It would weed out the bad teams that are not championship material. The cream would rise to the top. So once the the teams ranked in the 400’s and 500’s were gone after the first round like they should be, it would start to get to the point only good teams are left. The last couple rounds would be the best of the best. One true state champion.    Watering down the classes and letting teams who normally would have no business winning a title advance further than they should is like letting a toddler hold a fake steering wheel and pretend he’s driving. It’s not real. And it doesn’t prepare the kids for real life. It makes them think they are better than they really are. 
    • Buy Azithromycin Online is a handy antibiotic you can buy online to treat specific bacterial infections. It’s great for things like respiratory infections (think coughs and sore throats), skin infections, ear infections, and even some sexually transmitted infections like chlamydia. One cool thing about it is that you usually only need to take it for a short time, usually around five days. Just remember, it’s super important to take the full course even if you start feeling better before it’s done. This helps make sure the infection is completely gone and doesn’t come back stronger. Like with any medication, there can be side effects, like upset stomach or diarrhea, so it’s always good to talk to your doctor or pharmacist first, especially if you have any health conditions or are taking other meds. Overall, Azithromycin can be an effective and convenient option for treating bacterial infections when used correctly.
    • Okay, how about that STA vs. Ida Baker matchup in your first round?  Does your analogy extend to South Florida slappies?  My opinion is simply that no one (except CoachGraham, apparently) would be interested in the 1 vs. 512, 2 vs. 511, and 200 other mismatches such a format would produce, regardless of geography.  But I could be wrong.  And now I'm thinking I should have skipped college.
