Regardless of the reason, it seems that schooland or team leadership has to also be accountable to the end results. Measuring success with a sports team is really easy. Scores and wins. |

i dont see the problem of one team runs up score against the other team in sport. they just have to learn basic definition of the word "compete". if you cant score a single point in a basket ball game that means you either suck or you want it to end that way. it doesn't matter if it is nfl, nba, mlb. i remember the redskins whined a lot when patriots score 52 on them and went on 4th down in the 4th quarter. it is a wake up call losers, wake up and compete rather than crying. or maybe these students shouldn't be playing basketball at all. what do you expect, you are up 70-0 and just stand there let other team having couple of layups? thats even more disrespectful. you earn your points in sports, dont expect to get them for free. the patriots didn't stop scoring because the redskins defense sucked so bad they couldn't even stop a simple play on 4th down. compete, compete even though you know you have no chance in the game. thats sport.

Just for the record - I have no issue with the team running up the score. My issue is with the school's leadership/coach putting teams on the court for 4 years without a win.

Regardless of level, I view running up the score as classless and poor sportmanship on the coaches part..... unless it's any team running the score up on the dallas cowgirls

"They (losing team) showed much more character than the coach that allowed that score to get out of hand. It's up to the coach to control the outcome."
at least they get something after all of this... "They also said they are excited about some of the attention they are receiving from the loss, including an invitation from Dallas Mavericks owner Mark Cuban to see an NBA game from his suite."

My question is why? Why delibrately run up the score?
Did they have a right? Sure. But running up the score, in this particular instances, served no purpose.. This was not for BCS standings in college football, where scores matter.. This was a girl's high school basketbball game.. What is actually learned from this? What? That when a team is better you can lose a basketball game? What was important was the "win", which the winning team could have done by less than 100 points... |

My son played JV soccer this year; last game was last night. His team has historically been very good. The state has a mercy rule, such that if one team gets 8 points ahead, and at least half the game has been played, you end the game. No options, no choices to be made by either side. The winners get a clear "stomp" out of it, but the losers are not made to endure humiliation longer than necessary. For kids, I think it is a good rule. His team won several games this year via the mercy rule.

However, winning is not more important than what you said. I would also include good sportsmanship. Those are more important than winning. And all can be accomplished while still winning the game Last edited by cbax5; 01-25-2009 at 02:44 AM. |
