" While this is a big game locally, it does not deserve to be on TV. There are other Bay Area games like Campolindo v Acalanes. Sorry!!! "

" Might as well put them on TV, our two highschool teams have more talent than the 49ers and the Raiders combined. "

" Hey Vintage and Napa fans,
Don't stop, keep voting online through Thursday. I noticed those other schools on the ballot were out of school today and some tomorrow. On Wednesday they could double our votes in a matter minutes. Keep voting.

Also a HUGE special thanks to a Vintage Cheer and Dance mom who doesn't want to be named that got our name on the ballot. She's a Vintage Crusher and Napa Indian fan. "

" ryannapa... With all due respect, this year the "Big Game" is simply not a TV worthy game compared to other Bay Area games or last years "Big Game". My example was purely that and KUTV should present the best/most interesting/meaningful game. I agree Napa High is having another good year but Vintage record doesn’t measure up to warrant Bay Area TV coverage. But I guess that is why there is chocolate and vanilla. Those of us who really care will be there in person and that's what matters. "
