Mercy Rule

[jritchie]

i think the mercy rule would ACTUALLY HELP THE OFFICIATING..
If the clock is not going to stop, why would the officials not call anything.... I would think that they may over call because if teams are in the bonus or double bonus, most of the time would be spent on the free throw line with the clock running and the kids standing still not killing each other!!! Sounds a lot better to me than, not calling anything and letting the kids run around knocking each other all over the place!!! I can see where the Coaches that are on the winning side wouldn't want it because they want to get their SCRUBS IN...all i can say to that is get more JV games if they want them to play more....because if the score is that lop sided then the losing coach probably has his worst players in too and that won't help either team one bit....So I would definitely stand behind the mercy rule 100%.....
