The issue was that parents complained because a girl was playing on a boys team. The coach should have known it was against the league's policy to allow a girl to play on a boys team. Evidently, the coach was told on many occasions that it was against the league policy. The coach escalated the issue to the media. The victim is this poor girl who meant no harm - she doesn't want all this attention - she just wants to play basketball.
Ultimately, I simply don't care what everyone else thinks.

Smitty,
The only facts I care about are that the girl was not allowed to play on the boy's team anymore. I do not care about how good she is or what her parent think.
Peace
