I wish they would go back to 4 classes and the district champ and runner up would make the playoffs. It may be about the players, but they should earn it. We never made the playoffs when I played, but I'm glad we didn't because we weren't good enough and didn't earn it. What does it mean to make the playoff every year when you don't earn it. It takes away from those that do earn it.

That's a very GOOD point. It IS about the players, but what are you
teaching them, and what are they getting from it, in this format?
More of the "everybody gets a trophy" mentality? The logical
extension of this mindset is to go to 120 classes in football,
let everybody make the playoffs, and then everybody is either
a state titlist or runnerup.
