MoFo Posted December 23, 2017 Report Posted December 23, 2017 I can remember a time when the all district awards meant something. I know what you're thinking Mofo is butt hurt. Actually just the opposite my son is on the list and he and I both know he shouldn't be. He had 2 receptions during regular season. Bring back the days when these awards were an honor to receive.

The Icon Posted December 23, 2017 Report Posted December 23, 2017 Everybody gets a trophy The PA News Super Team used to consist of more than just the Mid and South Jefferson County Schools. MoFo 1 Quote
oldschool2 Posted December 23, 2017 Report Posted December 23, 2017 They need to just let every starter be 1st Team All District. And any kid that ever gets in the game be 2nd Team. Do away with honorable mention. Then the wussification can be complicated. MoFo 1 Quote
MackLewis Posted December 23, 2017 Report Posted December 23, 2017 Offense and defense is played with 11 players. Except when it comes to all district teams. They have around 18 person per offensive and defensive team. 1- QB 3-RB 2-TE 5-WR 7-OL Looks like illegal participation for too many players to me. Quote

My boy got HM in district 21-6A but so did a bunch of others that in my eyes took what ever meaning it had away. I already knew 1st or second team was gonna be a reach in our district with him being only a sophomore. 22 1st team 22 2nd 22 or less HM’s Quote

Last year, my Son got honorable mention, this year, First team all defense. Quote
BMTSoulja1 Posted December 24, 2017 Report Posted December 24, 2017 Most of the time, they get it right. But like you said, a player with 2 receptions for the season shouldn't be on anyone's list. They goofed that one up. Quote
MoFo Posted December 24, 2017 Author Report Posted December 24, 2017 Pick 11 for offense, 11 for defense for both 1st and 2nd team. Make the award mean something again. You can put as many as you want on honorable mention list Quote

What do you want? 4 D linemen, 3 linebackers, 2 CB's, 2 Safeties? Offense, 1 QB, 2 RB's, 2 WR's, 1 TE, and 5 o-linemen? Ok, what do you do with teams that run 5-2 defenses? 3-4 defenses? 3-3-5? Nickel? Dime? I'm offense, you have wing-t that have No WRs... You have teams that run spread with 4 wr's, 1 rb, no TE? Still 11 on both sides? And some districts you have all spread teams. Some districts, you have majority wing-t or slot - t teams... L-Train11 1 Quote

I don't think that's watered down. Quote
