I did a game that could have been almost this bad, except that the coach did know "what else" could be done. These kinds of blow-outs are a pet peeve of mine. I think running up the score is very unsportsmanlike. Personal opinion.
This game I did the other night, the coach put in her third string of course, and then started designing new plays, that her kids weren't very good at. Then every girl played in an unfamiliar position. Because of these adjustments by the way-ahead team, the final score was "only" 82-24, although it was 56-10 at the half. Also, I never heard a single word of complaint from the coach, although last year a different coach of the same team chipped constantly through the three games I worked for his team. I like this new coach a lot better!!
