The way I see it, if you're not good enough to win your district you should feel lucky to play for a state championship. Also, the way I see it, if you have to gimmick your way to a state title, you have no business there because you will be exposed in the end. And like i've said before, when region d was bringin home crowns no one whined about the other schools being larger...etc etc. Those are nothing but excuses for the truth. The truth is we in this region became arrogant and complacent as if winning a state championship is a birth right or somethin. Well, the news is in...It's not a birth right. It is the result of hard work and physical play. And until someone in this region goes up the road and wins one with somethin other than PHYSICAL football, there is no proof to discount the fact that the change in philosophy is a major reason that this region has failed 4 out of 4 times in the past 2-3 years. And as far as larger schools having the most talent, that has always been the case. The trump to that was the smaller schools had the most determination and HEART.
