There's no reason this forum can't represent boys and HS Vball. It's in need of new blood and new perspectives. Some attempt was made under the SoCalHSVBall topic but there was very little response. VBall magazine's forum is now more directed to boys VBall but seems to get a lot more traffic from the east coast. They have posted the names of the Fab 50 from the east and midwest, leaving out the west coast. I'm sure when we find out the names omitted from this list there will be at least some controversy. I question the timing as the so cal HS season is only 1/2 way done. New stars may yet arise.That VB Mag board sways in different directions depending on the seasons. After J.O.s last July it was all about the West coast boys and how they dominated the J.O.s, the LBC in particular. It slowed down in the last couple of months and more Easterners have found it. The Westerners have been asking them to post more, and now they finally are. I would have posted the West coast Fab 50s but I haven't received my edition of the magazine yet. My subscription always seems to lag behind the rest. It makes me wonder if they deliver to Eastern subs homes before the Westerners get theirs.
If you notice, there aren't that many actual posters. The number of posts is up when there's a hot topic, but the number of individuals isn't anything to write home about. I suspect there are many more who visit and opt to not post. Posting is something a lot of people are not comfortable with. If you post something controversial you can get bashed by very unfriendly and rude people who have no debating skills.
