Understood. Simply questioning the AP. Seems like they could get some of this stuff right...
Not you per se... I just could tell the thread was going where JCHILLjr took it.

Edgy is a friend and coworker with AP members, and has been posting these for years. Someone telling him not to post "garbage" associated with his cohorts in the field is asinine and disrespectful IMO.

AP should be shamed for this lack of knowledge. I'm glad Edgy posts here so we can ridicule them on a public stage.

And who was the fool who voted to give Althoff any ranking????

How is SHG ranked over Glenwood when they just lost to them.

Dean - that is a great question! The AP guys typically have a public over private school bias and also favor the downstate teams. This ranking of SHG over Glenwood who beat them is worse than bias - it is evidence of total disorganization and disregard for basic protocol when ranking teams. It makes any of their polling data questionable at best and totally worthless at worst.

If Beth Long is an AP "guy" that would explain a lot.

Wow quite a few basic blocking and tackling errors in those AP poll win loss records. Oh well - as long as the IHSA has got the records and scores documented correctly..........

All....Well.... Meow! Lots of interest all of a sudden in downstate schools. A win is a win is a win I suppose. And far be it from the rodent to agree with A.P. voters. Maybe a four point victory over the Cyclones this year considering SHG had won 23 games (7 times twice in a season) in a row against the Redskin now Titans with a pf of 933 and pa of 389 wasn't enough to move the needle quite enough to everyone's liking./snark

But if the stars align correctly (and they could) SHG and Chatham will meet again in the 6A playoffs. Ratsy

Didn’t get the memo on who edgys friends are when I signed up. Sorry, wasn’t ragging on edgy just who did the AP poll. Keep reading what my thoughts are. You might get it right someday. Just stated a fact.

What do the previous 23 years have to do with anything. Do you really believe that SHG should be ranked ahead of Chatham this week?

So you don't read or listen to his content, simply shitpost? Shame really.

And I've read your thoughts, JCA +47 or something, amirite?

All.... Calm down Hilltopper. Obviously "snark" was hard to follow. Maybe next time I will make it clearer if that is needed. Ratsy P.S. And it's 16 years. One in the regular season and seven playoff wins. More clarity.

I'm calm. Was just asking a question. One can never tell if you are being serious.

It's joke related to your 600 yards comment. Not surprisingly went over your head.You are full homer and otherwise lacking in insight, but you do you.

My OP was just a heads up that "Hey dude you are trashing a longtime Edgy thing". But you seem to not care, so, again. You do you.

The 600 yard comment was a off handle comment. The only homer is you being you. Did not trash edgy. Your assumptions are asinine. I don’t care if edgy put that ap poll out for years. It’s total crap on the facts of the teams win and loss totals. I guess edgy likes the humor of its inaccuracies that’s why he posts them. Should I attack you for picking st Rita over JCA? Your reasonings were wrong weren’t they? I guess your the only one that can’t be wrong on what you post. I didn’t get that memo when I joined either. My pick on the st Rita game was right on. Not so on IC game. Big deal. Win some lose some. Stick around, might predict something you don’t like either. In fact I hope I do. Lol. Now that I know it bothers you, I will continue. Lmao

So you can not heed the heads up then, cool.

Your picking wrong doesn't bother me, you don't even bother me [again, was addressing the whole thread before you jumped in, you just are dense it seems]. In fact, we've had more annoying posters, but with more substance and less prose like a middle schooler. But don't get me wrong, you are a terrible poster. Like eight-fan football in a league of FBS teams bad.

Again man, you do you and best of luck with that.

Didn’t know I need a heads up about anything. What happens if I don’t heed the warning???? You must of been the kid in school who got his lunch money taken from him every day. Threatening posters??? Really??? Who’s the middle schooler??? Obviously my 600 yard comment bothered you in such a way you analyzed it in a way to describe me. That’s unbelievable. Obviously I had more knowledge about JCA in week one then you. So to say I’m not knowledgeable makes you really dumb then. Can you send me the guidelines of a good post? Second thought, don’t, you haven’t posted anything useful since I got in here. Like I said, I hope my posts annoy you more. Lol

What happens? You continue to look like an idiot.

And if you ever find yourself identifying with my posts, let me know so I can seek help for a potential stroke.

Are you going off the rails or doing rails?

@Jchill-1
Epic is a great poster. He’s been on the Edgy board for a very long time and has contributed greatly. Just look at his stats. He is very knowledgeable about high school football and is an asset to what is discussed here.

He’s not wrong when he calls you a homer. I suppose we all are at some level but there is such a thing as temperance.

(At this moment I envision “Epic” as Steve Martin and “Jchill-1” as Del Griffith in the movie Planes Trains and Automobiles)

I think everyone appreciates your enthusiasm (to a point...) and values your insight on JCA football. Unfortunately the objectivity gets lost in the enthusiastic hype. You have the freedom to post anything you like but if you really want to be heard, tame down the hyperbole and take a more objective approach.

His stats? Perhaps an Edgy’s Lost His Mind fantasy league is in the works!
