Pretty sure we know my point. I don't really care how long it took or how hard it was. It's just funny that those +1ing and agreeing all benefit from what they +1 and agree upon.
Which makes it really hard to take you serious if you contend "it's good for the game".
As for what happened 10 years ago, I quit for 2 reasons: 1. HBD was invented. I'm a baseball guy. 2. VaTech lost EVERY recruit to Duke/UNC/Kentucky. Sure, I could have ground it out. But, again, I'm a baseball guy. As I said, I don't want a participation trophy. But, if/when I get to Duke, I don't think I'm entitled to all the best players either. I play video games on the hardest level. Those who think the A+ teams should have all the advantages probably take the Patriots, set it on Rookie and try to score 100 every game.
