I did not say they were. But in Football where the 40 point running clock rule is active, it is because it is a different kind of sport with injury factors. Basketball does not have the same concern.

Why not, they do already.

Well it does not have to be a debacle just because of the score. And considering that this almost never happens on one side of the ball, maybe the girls coaches need to learn something from the Boy's coaches. They tend to call off the dogs and try their best to play the backups and get through the game. If we are going to have this rule, have it for the girl's side only. But we know that will never happen.
