I had this happen once (Rockford big 12 at that time). They had a certain Bosnian player that was really good. I can't remember the visiting school, but like most at that time it was a beating early. He gets wacked in the first half by one of my partners. At half-time he suggests that if we have to stay out there and witness this so should he. So reguardless of his antics we weren't giving him the satifsfaction. At a time out one of the other guys quitely gives him our perspective. He sat down and looked completely beat. Home coach couldn't believe we were letting him get away with this until he was let in on why we were doing it. priceless
