aledo wins 91 to 0 and is acused of bullying?

[Nash B.]

I laugh at this for a couple of reasons.

One, you do anything on a competitive level, you are going to win and you are going to lose. You may win more than you lose, you may lose more than you win, you may win them all and never lose or lose all of them. But you learn what it takes to win, how it feels to lose, and you gain experience. Its not being a bully if you just suck and cant score.

Two, the high school where my wife teaches' football team didnt score a single point in regulation play her first year. They cleaned house on coaches, brought in a new staff, and went to the play offs the next year. The parents should be looking at their own school's coaching, not the other team if they want someone to blame.

A good friend of mine used to say, "This is a simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.

Sure your friend wasn't quoting Bull Durham?

[YALE]

Why wouldn't the the losing team just ask to take the mercy rule and call it early?

It's worse for your record because then any points you score don't count towards your ranking, and even if you're getting the piss beat out of you, if you have good players, you want them to play against better players. It elevates their game, and it gives them a chance to get seen be recruiters.

On a similar note, my kid's football team won again tonight, score 56-8. They are undefeated at 7-0.

Bully!

It's a movie quote within a movie quote!

I've never heard of a mercy rule that negates the score. But I've also never heard of a mercy rule in a timed sport, either.

There's no mercy rule involved in a forfeit. Six-man football has a mercy rule, but that's because it's a fucking jailbreak, and 100 point margins are distinctly possible.

Exactly. The coach of the losers should have thrown the towel in.

My thought as well. It isn't an embarrassment to admit when you are outclassed.

It doesn't look like they brought one to throw in.

here's the complaint from the FATHER

“My son plays for western hills football team on friday night we all witnessed bullying firsthand, it is not a pretty sight. Picking up my son from the field house after the game and taking him home was tough, I did not know what to say on the ride home to explain the behavior of the aledo coach for not easing up when the game was in hand. After thinking about my ride home, I thought how tough it must have been for the parents of the aledo football players to explain what happened o their sons on the ride home. During the game the aledo players showed respect to my son and I thank them for their good sportsmanship. I wish the aledo players good luck this season and hope they have a successful school year.I wish their parents don’t have to explain this ride home again.”

Has his name been released? And due to the bold part above, he needs to be cited for making a false or malicious report, as it is obvious that he knows there was no bullying done.

He said it was the coach, not the players.

Fair enough.
