Post Re: consequences of filing suit

I may see this ref again this weekend and if I do, I will let you know what he had decided. I think the prevailing opinion here is that he should, and that it would not hurt his career.

The tone right now in Oregon is to come down hard on these kinds of acts. Last legislative session, we passed a sports officials assault protection bill and our state activities association (which governs all high school activities here) instituted harsh new penalties for coaches who misbehave.

If he files suit, he will get three things: publicity, support and money.
