I dont agree with the fact that he is still being scheduled games and now tomorrow i have a high profile games with him. our assigner is unwilling for whatever reason to remove him from this game. my question is this. Would you guys remover yourself from the game or just suck it up?
Was the actual act of assigning games done AFTER the guilty plea and AFTER the assigner knew it? If so it's a problem.

If he has games on his schedule that were placed there BEFORE the guilty plea I don't have a problem with them being there but it might be wise to remove them now.
