And Geauga Lake Park had a water park first before the combination where they tried to turn it into a rollercoaster only park and moved all the water park stuff across the lake.

Geauga Lake needs to make a return. Had fond memories going there as a kid. But the combination with SeaWorld under Six Flags destroyed it. Cedar Fair took it over and tried to keep it around, but it eventually all closed almost a decade ago. Such a shame.

Just gotta know not to point them in the wrong direction.

Most northern states seem to put it in the spring while southern states are putting it in the fall. Georgia even mixed their boys football and girls flag football titles into the same event at Mercedes-Benz Stadium

Every school that goes to 8-man probably hopes it's temporary. That means they've grown a little as a school and gotten numbers up to be better in football. But jumping back and forth is a disaster. If you try to go back to 11-man you need to be certain it's for the next four years otherwise you...

PIAA sanctioned it. NYSPHSAA already did and had playoffs this spring. The NFL is a big proponent of it.

PIAA Class 6A is heavily weighted to the East. There's 89 teams in the state. 10 are in District 12 (Philadelphia), 30 in District 1 (Philly suburbs mostly), 22 in D3 (capital, Lancaster area) and 11 in D11 (Allentown / Reading area). That's 73 of 89 just in those 4 southeastern districts...

First, the WPIAL plan failed because D10 wouldn't release them from the D10 playoffs to play in the WPIAL playoffs. The WPIAL didn't want to keep them any longer if they couldn't play in the WPIAL playoffs. Secondly, I went back and showed you EVERY TIME they willingly scheduled a team outside...

You're asking 3A schools in PA to play a 6A team in one of their few non-district scheduled games? If they're lucky to have their rivals in their region? They're not a Steubenville. Just to humor you, here's the last non-region District 10 PA teams McDowell has played: 2025 Meadville 2024...

You finally beat me. I'm at 79 for Iowa.

They don't have a choice. Their league is three teams: McDowell, Erie, and Cathedral Prep. Where else do you expect them to schedule? The WPIAL and D10 schools are all scheduled up. Same issue with Section 6 in NY. So only MMAA in Buffalo and Ohio schools that aren't fixed to a conference...

The Haslams haven't exactly said where their funding is coming from. They don't have the cash to just pay the other $1.6 billion for the stadium. They will either be taking a loan--from someone--or having to sell something off. If they are taking a loan, it would be stupid NOT to take the loan...

Good or bad, Mount Union is at least becoming a bit more 'mortal' now. But they're still the 800 pound gorilla in the OAC. NFL teams can blackout days or weekends where they don't want to host. Cowboys do it every year with the UIL Finals. Minnesota and Indianapolis do it as well. Sure, they...

NY is one of the few states I've seen with a minimum number of players in order to play. NYSPHSAA requires 16 dressed, healthy, eligible players in order to start a game. Don't have 16, you can't play. I've seen far too many teams skate by with 12, 13, or 14 kids starting a game. And other...

That's right. I forgot they moved to John Carroll and B-W as well.

Are you sure that's the plan? Playing at Baldwin-Wallace still seems like the better situation. I mean, you can't get much closer than that for home games. Even if it's not your own field. As for St. Ignatius, they already basically play all home games on Saturday at Byers Field. At this...

Yes. Pull a Minnesota or Indiana. Force them to give the OHSAA 3 day block every year for the state finals, no hosting fees. In both circumstances, the teams are gracious hosts and act as if they're willingly hosting, but they're forced by the state to do it. But they're not going to pass up a...

They only left Ohio Stadium because Ohio Stadium didn't offer them the best deal. Though, to be honest, the Canton deal was grossly misrepresentation of what they'd be paying per ticket. The reason the games moved to Columbus was Jim Tressel. He wanted it as a recruiting tactic for in-state...

Yes. All games. Just the teams need to be OHSAA.

Thought of this since Yappi was posting info about his fantasy team thread. I want to run another Last Man Standing Contest and use similar rules to what I used last year. There is one major change. And I want to run rules by you all, and see if you all have any suggestions or thoughts about the...
