Proof that you can please some of the people some of the time ...
From a Kennett fan: "Just wondering how Hayti is ranked No. 17 and Kennett No. 22 when Kennett beat Hayti on Hayti's home court."
Easy: Kennett's win at Hayti was more than a month ago, it was a close game, and in the days since, Hayti has had the better run. In fact, Kennett just recently dropped out of the SEMO Top 25 altogether, and Hayti is No. 22.
From a New Madrid County Central fan: "Your 'who has the best chance to win a state championship' list ommits NMCC. You always seem to be reluctant to recognize NMCC or give them due credit. What's up with that?"
For starters, NMCC ranked No. 3 in our preseason SEMO Top 25, so we were optimistic. As for the poll on our home page, we listed only 10 teams who (at the time the poll was created) showed the most potential.
An anonymous e-mailer asks: "Why do you link to Brandon Bourbon's page on your site but not to any other athlete? There are many other athletes deserving of equal attention."
Maybe, but the other deserving athletes didn't get 3,251 votes in our football MVP poll Brandon Bourbon did. Keep checking back, because there could be more individual pages coming up for other local athletes. Any suggestions?
From a Charleston girls basketball fan: "Why is Delta getting such praise when Charleston waxed them and most everyone else but the top five or six?"
In the past two weeks, Delta beat Kelly, and Kelly beat Charleston. Charleston has the potential to break into the SEMO Top 10, but not yet.

I love these blogs about e-mails from readers. They crack me up every time.
Let's get some Sikeston-ND coverage please. This site has gotten real weak as of late when this is the hottest time of year.
