Point Spreads

Putting point spreads on high school football games only encourages coaches to leave their starters in and run up the score on less talented schools. I would rather see both coaches agree to bring in second and third stringers when the game is lopsided in the 3rd or early 4th quarter. High school sports is supposed to be about the kids, not running up scores to please the fans or enhance the coach's resume. A win is a win; rubbing the other team's nose in it doesn't prove anything.

A win is a win. Can I quote you on that? But not if Lakeland does it with their superteam, right?
