What is going on in this world where we are suspending a coach for being too good?
California girls high school basketball coach suspended after 161-2 victory | Fox News
If you don't want to get your ass whooped then maybe you should prepare your team better. This touchy feely stuff with our nation is driving me nuts.
Hey bud, long time no see!
I agree, everyone getting a trophy nowadays is just not right. It doesn't allow for good competition.
i wonder if they would suspend a boys coach for the same 'offense?'
This is retarded. If anything, the OTHER coach should've been suspended for doing a shitty job coaching. That coach should've been ashamed of himself for not preparing his team to fair a little better than 2 points. He should've done the responsible thing and forfeited.
Well did u read....the team that lost....lost a game before that by 90.
The team that won beat two previous teams by 70.
Wasn't this expected??
When I was in the 8th grade, I was on the boys basketball team and we lost to the girls team in an exhibition game...
Meh, there should be some sort of mercy rule. Who wants to watch a slaughter like that?
What a soft cockk. Sports is about winning. If your not first your last.
Its called sportsmanship and at some pint it goes past the point of ridiculous. I would think you could even tell your bench players after several minutes to "tone down" the offense. After all it isnt like they were getting quality practice against such a shitty team. I personally think the coach should be getting shit.

Pretty sure a 100 point lead had them "dead" LOL the other 58 points may have been overkill!!!
Its just a good attitude to have. The game is not over till the ref blows the final whistle. Just pump out 100% till the end. Remember when Australia beat american samoa 33-0 in the soccer? Should they have stopped after 20 out of pity? No having pity in a sports game is a bad attitude and disrespectful to the sport.Quote:

As a spectator, I would have walked away from that game. Would have just lost interest because obviously one of the teams lost interest as well.
It is poor sportsmanship. Can't argue against that.
But there's no reason to punish the coach.
The losing coach should have forfeited at half time. There's just a point where its more embarrassing to get killed like that, then to just admit defeat

As a spectator, I wouldn't have watched in the first place. This is a girls basketball game.Quote:

But that's the only reason it would be worth watching. Only thing that would make it better if it was an Asian girls basketball team.Quote:

Yeah, but ever remember what the girls on your high school girls basketball team looked like? They're remarkably similar to the ones who played on the softball team too.Quote:

I completely disagree with telling players to tone it down, or go easy, that is not what competition is about, give 100% until the final buzzer. It should be up to the refs or losing coach to intervene. There should also be a rule in place to protect coaches and players from this going that far in the first place, the persons responsible for making the rules are to blame, not the coaches or players.
Those are my kind of bitches in that football video, god damn. I like a tough women that is hot too, those little frail girls are too delicate, I like a girl who can handle a little roughness.
Interestingly enough, I was a baseball player. I was always attracted to the softball girls.Quote:

Exactly how I feel. Not everyone is equal, I hate how they teach that in school but in the real world not everyone gets a trophy, not everyone is rich etc...Quote:
