Muckboy needs to find a way to get down here for this year’s Muck Bowl!  I’ll take care of his game ticket and whatever he wants to stuff his face with including libations.

Humans created the MaxPreps ranking system.  Problem solved.  Of course not.  Bringing in the HUMAN ELEMENT on the back end will cause problems as well as pointed out by Perspective.  You need to figure out a way to have it done on the field of play.  Computer programs and human elements will result in never ending controversies.  Keep it simple, dadgummit!

Same thing my cousin A-Town on here said about Spanish River....

I'll play devil's advocate just a little.   As soon as you inject the "human element," you create a risk of bias.  It happens at all levels.   In college football, coaches and sportswriters from the south tend to vote for teams from the south while coaches and sportswriters from the midwest tend to vote for the teams from the midwest.   To a certain extent, it's natural.  I can see the same thing happening at the high school level if you involve coaches, writers, web hosts, etc.  I understand the argument in favor of inserting a little humanity into the process, but that will undoubtedly create a possibility of bias for and against teams based on nothing more than where the teams are located.   

I totally agree with you 100 percent. Human element is needed. I have yet to see a computer watch a football game.
