The problem is that it's actually worse, because free throws means no one is allowed to get in your way of shooting. It's much harder to shoot and make a goal if someone is pressuring you to shoot or blocking your path.

BraLoD said: The other team score 2 points! They are also winners! Lol, seriously, if you don't wanna be crushed, train more. What if Germany was taken off the cup after beating Brazil that hard? It's a game, it's a possibility, and all players should know this. Ridiculous, I hope the man get back to his position soon. |
Or don't join a sport team. It's not mandatory. Crazy idea, I know.
BraLoD said: Even better, they scored 2 times instead of only 1 xD |
I admire your optimism.

The other coach should have trained his team better. This was a competitive game, so he and his team have every right to score as many times as they want to. But yeah, sexism might be a point there. I hope not though, because women are just as competitive as men.

Article doesn't explain things very well. Did the coach do something to break "league" rules? The only reason a coach can be suspended is if he did something wrong. The winning and losing of a game is irrelevant. And it's s stupid sensationalist headline.

He was literally suspended for "bad sportsmanship." It wasn't a league game, though.

But they are. If they were serious about really getting better, I don't think that they would be losing pretty much every single game they get into.

It's a school competition league game surely. Bad sportsmanship can cover a multitude of sins, and it can be part of the rules of a competition, particularly in an educational and amateur setting part of sports is meant to be teaching good sportsmanship. And the article seems very vague on the precise reason. I don't think the article in the OP provides enough facts to be able to judge whether the suspension was reasonable or not. And I'm not going to be bothered searching out more facts as the matter really doesn't concern me enough to warrant the extra effort.

There aren't really any articles that give much more than what I posted gave. The most other articles give are a few more quotes and maybe some semi-related material, but all of them pretty much give the same story. The coach was suspended because his team won by too large of a margin, possibly some seeing it as the coach trying to humiliate the other team or being disrespectful. But the details surrounding the case are not 100% clear with any of the articles.
I completely agree with the suspension. This is recreational sports not pro. Based on the scores these kids should not be in the same leagues. There is plenty of ways to run the clock once you are up by 60.
Getting an XBOX One for me is like being in a bad relationship but staying together because we have kids. XBone we have 20000+ achievement points, 2+ years of XBL Gold and 20000+ MS points. I think its best we stay together if only for the MS points.
