Seems to me that you are the one getting mad. Maybe because I didn't pick your team! My expectation for 5A is for Harlan County to win it, like I have said on here many times what kind of fan doesn't pick their team to win. That is my expectation. What's the point of starting a post for every other one to say highlands thats not really a discussion on expectations now is it?

To be fair to sstack, you are the won that made the sarcastic comment about why even play the game if Highlands already has it locked up. I interpreted your comment as being upset that so many people predicted Highlands to win it again. And why shouldn't they make that prediction? Highlands went on the road to JC and Whitley County and beat two very good teams, with a lot of young kids starting for Highlands. Generally it's the younger kids that struggle with tough games on the road. It didn't seem to phase them one bit. This year, with a lot of starters returning on both sides of the ball, Highlands has to be in the cat bird seat for a repeat. Makes sense for Highlands to be predicted to repeat.

While it may seem wrong to you for any fan not to predict that their school is going to win state, a lot of people choose to make their predictions based on what they think will happen, as opposed to what they want to happen. But there is nothing wrong with going the method you have chosen. To each their own.
