[26 Year Gap]

It isn't always "our fault". Poor sportsmanship has been taken to a new level this year. We had 2 booted for fighting last night in the JV game. Long rebound. Clumsy collision. One kid takes a swing and his opposite number retaliates. Look at all of the vitriol during this past year's campaign. Civility and sportsmanship have taken it on the chin.
We had a hard intentional foul in the varsity game last night by the team that lost 96-60. One of my partners advised the coach about the player losing control. His response was that "we let it get that way". This is the same coach I had the problem with on the OOB violation last week. When your butt is getting kicked all over the gym and you don't even request a timeout, it surely is not the officials' "fault."

As an aside, his team was shooting a T and I asked which player was shooting. I told me and another player was lined up. I confirmed it with the coach and the other player reluctantly left. He(the player who left) then proceeded to get T'd up by one of my partners for a string of F-bombs. Tell me again coach about who doesn't have control.
