Consistent injurious play should be addressed at a higher level than a pregame - the league should be involved. Everyones gotta go to work in the morning and if it is exceeding the scope of reasonable play for a recreational level of ball, then it still would be likely inappropriate at the pregame...since it could be perceived as fanning the flames when the league is involved. If the league is not involved then that is a bad situation you are allowing yourself to be in.. and one you cannot control with simple pregame BS.
