Glad we didn’t go there. congrats to waxahachie on the big win That guy needs to be suspended for the rest of the year and charges filed. Having said that I think that handshake line at the end of the game needs to be done away with. There isn’t much sincerity involved there. Game over go to the field house. 1 Quote
justwinbaby Posted September 20 Posted September 20 Needs to be suspended for the remainder of the regular season and playoffs. Perhaps arrested to on assault and battery. Quote
Shmatt Posted September 20 Posted September 20 (edited) Sad to say but highly rated kids who play in major schools usually have ego issues, depends on the position for some reason. Edited September 20 by Shmatt Quote
All Gas No Brakes Posted September 20 Posted September 20 Poor sportsmanship for sure. Let’s relax on the assault charges. Quote

I think the difference is we accept it rather than bend over backwards demanding second chances. Quote

I think the difference is we accept it rather than bend over backwards demanding second chances. Maybe we just disagree on what constitutes being on the wrong side of the law. If this happens during a game, it’s a 15 yard personal foul penalty. But if it happens in the handshake line, it’s assault and he should be arrested? Quote

When you’re on the field you expect to get hit, your helmet is strapped on, your mouthpiece is in and players often get caught up in the heat of battle. There’s an expectation of contact, most of it allowed, some not so much. This was after the game was over. Also, he swung at three different people, including a guy not suited up. Personally these lineups are bs. Any sportsmanship is performative at best. If there’s an opponent you want to seek out to congratulate, you can always do it without the bs. Quote

If you punch someone in the game it is an ejection. You’re missing the forest for the trees dude. Yes, he grabbed the facemask of one guy, but keep watching, he throws a punch at a guy in street clothes that was supposedly an injured player. 1 Quote
RBHorns Posted September 21 Posted September 21 The line ups are not bs. They are intentionally set to show sportsmanship. The Pro’s do it, just not in a line. Basketball players do it. it is a part of life. Be a man and deal with it. Now, if bad things were said by the other team, let that come out as well. it is a bad look either way. Quote

In my opinion they are bs. And when you don’t do it in a line, they aren’t lineups, are they? They seek out other players, often friends and former teammates, and wish them well, just like they do in college. Quote
harveycmd Posted September 21 Posted September 21 Part of the goal of high school athletics is to teach sportsmanship. Postgame interaction with the opposing team is part of that. Quote
