Coupeville Sports

  Wolf football coach Tony Maggio is told his team is ranked seven slots behind an 0-4 team. He is not amused.

R-E-S-P-E-C-T.

What does it spell? Don’t ask a computer, cause it has no clue.

Just when I think Debbie, the down ‘n dirty electronic tramp employed by the otherwise quite-reputable Scoreczar.com knows what she’s doing, she confounds me again with her hair-brained “wisdom.”

Scanning the latest 1A football rankings issued forth by this hot-wired vixen, you get the feeling that, deep down, she just doesn’t like us here in Coupeville.

How else to explain that a 2-2 Wolf squad, a team that was one score away from being 3-1 (despite playing without its star running back for almost two full games) is ranked lower than an 0-4 team?

I kid you not.

The Warden Cougars, who have been outscored 166-70 in their four losses, are perched as the #39 team in 1A right now, a full seven slots ahead of Coupeville.

And yes, I can see why the computer (the hussy, Debbie) would think their losses were “honorable,” since they all came to teams in her Top 15 (Okanogan, Lind-Ritzville/Sprague, Royal, Riverview) with a combined record of 14-1.

But then again, there are NINE teams with losing records ranked ahead of Coupeville right now.

Last time I looked, wins and losses were still a thing. A thing that mattered.

You don’t make the playoffs based on your point differential on rainy games that kick off after 7 PM with a crowd of plus/minus 100 fans.

Unless Debbie gets her sick, twisted way.

But, in the end, it’s all bits of data. Debbie doesn’t hold grudges, just cause I poked her a bit last season.

Wait, they list the Coupeville WOLVES as the Coupeville Eagles.

Oh, Debbie, you vindictive witch…
