According to the Mt. Airy Bulldogs website and as commented on earlier in this blog the Bulldogs claim the following to be true statements regarding the div 2 program…
We can say that we have taken away from the game, but remember that this is a developmental division, not a competitive one. Once you put a record on the line, then coaches spend more time focusing on winning than developing. This year, we are implementing an end of year “Challenge”, where we will have teams play a “wrap up game” with other Division II teams. Nevertheless, we will be expressively clear that there is no “Division II Champion”.
Now I’m going to make a prediction b/c a little birdie told me at a meeting recently where it was discussed the league voted on keeping score at this level months ago and having a playoff and a superbowl champion. It’s possible Mt. Airy leadership was sleeping at the meeting and just didn’t realize the rest of the gang wants to keep score and play an actual game of football. Most folks aren’t afraid of a little competition and would value the opportunity win or lose to have fun playing a game of football. It’s also possible I’m completely off base here and Mt. Airy is correct about being “expressively clear there is no champion” Only time will tell but for the league and kids sake I hope they let them play football.
