when i went to school, our football team was an absolute laughing stock. we lost double digits to nothing who knows how many times. it's not fun, but we found humor in it. especially if we ever found a way to get any points on the board-we considered that a victory in itself. now, i'm competitive as hell. to lose to a better player, i can handle that. i think it would tick me off a lot more if i lost and knew the other team was sandbagging. now, that probably doesn't apply in this instance... the big question would be why schedule such disparate teams? the second question would be why is there no mercy rule, or why didn't they just forfeit before the second half? also, from what i read a few days ago, the crowd was behind the team scoring-i think they wanted their team to get to triple digits. and then the coach gets fired for doing what the parents and fans seemingly wanted? perhaps more than the coach should get some attention from the powers that be there.
don't they have divisions for sports? we go from 6-a to 1-a in arkansas, surely they can find a better fit for that team?
