I'm not near as upset as some of my Blue brethren seem to be, especially on the Facebook group.
I don't condone "tanking" a game, but the coach was using the tournament format and tiebreaker rules to his advantage.
What bothers me more is that the Iowa team has a chance to beat the Washington team on the field and didn't get it done. So they cry and whine about the actions of another team and get a second chance to advance in the tournament that no other team got. from what I have read, there is no allowance in the LL rules for a team not involved in a game to protest that game, but LL allowed the protest anyway. Then Iowa wins the "playoff" game.
To me, this is another example of the "we lost, but it wasn't our fault" mentality that is prevalent today.
