[all-or-nothing]

Who do you want them to play? They've played everyone in their district and region, and traveled to tournaments and beaten people there. The so-called quality teams they have played, they've beaten, with the exception of Magoffin County. I have always said MC is great and is the team to beat. But all teams, including Valley, have to start somewhere. They have to prove themselves before "quality teams" will schedule games with them AND before they will be approved to travel and spend money, etc. You're saying you have no respect for a team that has no control over the people they play. Do you think they are involved in the decision making process early in the year? No. I'm just encouraging you to rethink your position. If you have no respect for them based on the games you've watched them play, well that's your fair opinion. But to compare them with another program with a longer history of success (which is what I thinkyou have in mind with MagoffinCounty and them traveling to Florida) is just not right. If they're not the team you want to win, just say that. No problem! But to say that they have not earned respect in this region by the way they play is just downright unthinkable, in my opinion.
