    The Yankees, Cardinals, Athletics, and Red Sox have won 50% of all World Series played (thats out of 107 World Series!) and make up only ~13% of the league.

    The Lakers, Celtics, and Bulls have won 63% of all NBA Finals played and make up only 10% of the league.

    So basically.....all sports are dominated by a few teams, none of them are fair.

    Since the guys complaining don't like the pro stats too much, how about this:
    McKinley, Hilliard Davidson, Steubenville, Buchtel, Versailles, Germantown Valley View, Kenton, Coldwater, St. Henry, and Marion Local make up 1.39% of all the schools. Yet, they have won 16.83% of all the football state titles (33 titles among them). Should they be thrown out and forced to play in their own playoffs as well?

    Why are you guys still at this. Skank said I am right and I have no problem with the current set up. Case closed.

    I do know one fact:

    Since championships have been decided on the field, you got nuthin!! :p

    Now that's a fact!!
  • Mortgagestar1
    Maybe when public schools stop getting talent across state lines, then private schools can come into question.

    You're telling me that 1% of the teams winning 17% of the championships is fair? OK then...

    St. X, St. Ed, Mooney, Ursuline, Benedictine, Watterson, DeSales, Alter, Newark Catholic, and Delphos St. John (also 1.39% of the total number of schools) have won 41 titles, which is 20.91%.

    So maybe people (meaning you, skank, and thinthick) shouldn't be so upset about a handful of privates winning about the same number of titles as a handful of publics.
  • sherm03
    Also, combining those numbers...that means that 2.79% of the teams have won 37.75% of all the titles. All 20 of those teams need kicked out to play in their own tournament! It's just not fair!

    I think the problem stems from Massillon putting all their eggs into one basket. They are a football only school but have squat to show for it. Maybe if they focused on other athletics then they wouldn't be so bitter about it. Living in McKinley's shadow is making skank crazy.

    LOL I really dont give a crap. My sons wrestle...we wrestle anyone...public/private (even during sectional/districts/state)...small schools/large schools.....(until tournament time).

    I dont care if football splits or not....I do find it hilarious watching you get you panties bunched up.

    Happy Thanksgiving to all!

    Translation: I am clearly outmatched in this argument, so I'm going to make it seem like I actually don't care, in an attempt to save face.

    Clever plan. But you can just admit that I made you look stupid and move on. I won't think any less of you.

    No plan at all....your statistics show simply what has been stated. The percentages that you posted, albeit a small differential...still favors privates! Clever! 20% > 16%...or 21% > 17% (if you want to round up)......None the less...I am in fact a huge football fan...but there are plenty of folks on here that have met me in real life and will in fact vouch that I have NO personal ties to football....Nor any of the "powerhouses" mentioned...public or private!

    Swell your head and think your wits were superior, when in fact...I honestly DO NOT CARE. I will still keep popping in and posting jabs....!

    ahh... this explains why you were pulling for Leipsic over on the D6 thread... It had nothing to do with me, you just don't like the private schools. Usually when someone is strongly passionate about something (you're hatred of private schools) they are blinded by anything but their own uneducated biased opinions.

    It's amazing how stats show the truth, good schools regardless of private or public produce good football. Yet I am amazed that there are people with power in this state that want to screw with the system we have now. Punish schools for success ... what a message that sends.

    P.S. I'm sure some schools recruit, both pubic and private, but to punish JUST the PRIVATES is not only discrimination but also unfair to the private schools that don't do any kind of "recruiting". Also, good luck stopping Marion Local and Coldwater in DV and DVI if you take out the private schools, might as well just hand them the trophy every year... then you'll probably just kick them out too...lol

    #1 i have No hatred towards anything football....its usually the "posters" that sway my opinion.

    #2 speaking of uneducated biased opinions....your private school education failed you in reading comprehension!

    #3 Statistics are facts...facts dont lie! Try to spin anyway you like!!!

    It's really unbelievable that someone would make a post like this when his teams QB is from West Virginia

    You now may join your friend the Princess in the Hypocrite's Hall of Shame

    Let's see your QB is from WV. The other big whiner on here has a QB from OR. Where would your players actually come from if you did recruit?
  • Mortgagestar1
    Several of Big Reds QBs have been from West Virginia. Branko Busic " The Loanshark " is from West Virginia and will spend the next 20 in West Virginia prison. Big Red gets talent from OUTSIDE the district & unable to play just Steubenville kids nor capable of playing in Mooney's Conference.
