These are comical.  I see Nease as honorable mention in girls at 11-10 so I’m thinking maybe they played a tough schedule.  I look up there maxpreps rankings and it is like 150.  My first thought is I bet they played Columbia.  Yup I was correct.  The Columbia opponent 50-75 point bump.  I’m shocked you don’t have Columbia boys higher even though you have them 25 spots ahead of maxpreps.

Well there's your first mistake as i wouldn't care where maxpreps ranks a team 

 

In fact the only value I found in maxpreps was for checking schedule and record of the teams, the honorable mentions work much different for basketball than for football, most of the honorable mentions are ones who were ranked in preseason and haven't been dropped or are used to identify teams in the area since I use these rankings as a base for a area composite poll that I'm a voter in

Well you have a crappy team as honorable mention.  Maxpreps poll > Columbiafan poll

Do you still think I had Columbia too high after they beat 20th ranked in the state Lincoln (maxpreps) to win a district Championship while down 2 starters with injury?

 

:D

 

Said it before, I'll say it again

 

Nobody knows Columbia better than me, if I put them somewhere or give insight on them there's always a reason behind it ;)

    • This will be an interesting story to follow.  Venice has no proven RB headed in to spring which will be a first for a long time.  They have produced several Dairy Farmers player of the years in that position.  They also will have a massive offensive line with 2 three year starters who return as well as some stud young kids.  They will probably average around 6'4 295 on the line which is huge for Venice standards.  I just wonder if this will change before the start of the season.  I still fell like someone will show up.
    • Are you still talking to me??  Thought I was pretty clear for you not to waste your breath on this subject matter, but somehow you are missing the point.  Teacher unions have limited power in FL because the candidates they overwhelming support keep losing.  If they had won, the teacher union vote had a lot to do with it and would be wielding that power.  Osceola county which isn't a GOP stronghold during the past two national elections had the journalism students for the OHS monthly newsletter (Kowboy Jake) interview the faculty as to their political leanings.  A sample of about 30 teachers that were interviewed were voting as follows:  25 D vs 5 R.  Enough said.  
    • You missed the point of my union post. Teacher unions in strong union states have power. Florida unions have zero. They cant strike and the school board can implement a contract without the unions approval. Florida unions are not preventing any raise in Florida. The state has attacked a straw man here. 
    • As a general rule, I am not a big supporter of unions in the public sector in particular.  They certainly had a place in the private sector during the industrialization of our nation, but today not so much.  I have no first-hand experience with unions representing our local law enforcement or firefighters but my interaction with the teachers union over several years in that profession is the basis of my opinion.
