[Pulp Fiction]

And then there are those that think that everyone deserves a participation trophy too.

Do you see anyone from Paintsville or Pikeville cry babying for a class system? Do you see Beechwood people whining about it? No, you don't..All 1A programs who have either won an outright state title or contended for it. I would venture to guess that your whining about it is not representative of the Middlesboro system either..But, you always have one of those guys who want something for nothing that is just plain jealous of what someone else has worked for and earned.

What I really find embarrassing is that you have a JC supporter on here whining about it. Johnson Central is very capable of winning the thing outright just as it is....Based on the success the baseball program is having, consistently beating those traditional 6th, 7th, and 11th region powers, why in the world would you want to cheapen a possible outright state title?...It makes no sense at all.

The KHSAA has set it up now for smaller schools to not have to have a really deep pitching staff to be a contender. I cant say that I am a big fan of the KHSAA on all things, but thank goodness that the KHSAA have people in place right now with enough sense to keep the thing the way it is.

I've presented evidence and valid arguments to support a Class system in some form. Maybe every sport doesn't need to be Classed, but some are long past due. The numbers tell the story. Just because we've had the same system for the past 100 years doesn't mean it's right or what can be a better system now.

Can somebody give me the reason why Track & Field and Cross Country are Classed? Of all the sports the KHSAA offers, those two are Classed and many others should be, but aren't.


If Classification is so bad, then why are so many other states Classed as well as the NCAA?
