    Should a basketball coach be suspended for an extreme win 162-1 ? Not the first time suspended.

    http://www.sbsun.com/sports/20150114/without-suspended-coach-arroyo-valley-girls-basketball-wins-80-19?source=most_viewed. Here is a time before when he was suspended. A lucky coach. He has girls that can play. There should be a mercy rule in high school basketball. Although this doesn't happen , 60 point losses are common in both boys and girls . Some teams just don't have talent. What do you do, don't play because your team knows they are not good ? How about that team playing against 7th grade girls. That would be better. But if they lose would they get depressed and need psychological help instead.

    Suspended because your team's too good?


    I don't get it.......


    If the other team are crap at the game they shouldn't be playing the game, if they want the kids to exercise get them running around the ballpark, not on a basketball court embarrassing themselves, it is the relevant authority who suspended the guy who should be embarrassed, they must have a few talented girls in that team.

    Here in the states, we coddle our kids in organized sports. Some leagues play and all games are "tied". They do not want to ruin self esteem, I know, you cannot make this s___ up... In life, nobody is going to coddle them in the real world, and sport is one place for them to learn this, and accept it.

    Agreed, it's creeping in over here too.

    The "making everything equal for everyone" is creeping in everywhere. It goes along with "protecting our kids". We are beginning to outlaw tobogganing now....."children could get hurt". Give me a break!!!

    recently, we have had news of everyone outlawing sledding, I think this is for liability reasons. So, no wonder kids are computer geeks and so unfit and sickly, along with frail emotionally!

    I know it all has to do with liability (money in other words) and that is very sad for kids. Our society is more interested in blaming someone for every accident, rather than to believe accidents do happen and sometimes, it's even the fault of the injured person. However, insurance companies and lawyers love the blame game......$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!

    How well did he treat his team and how did they behave towards the losers? Sportsmanship was shown, I assume. There are good winners and bad, just like with losers. What kind of team did he have? What is he really being punished for?

    If I understand by half time at last game he only had secondary players playing. 100-1 at half. Games should have been forfeited by other team. But they kept playing.
