San Antonio Texas high school football players target ref because of a bad call

[mcpapa]

I know I'll come off sounding like an old curmudgeon when I post this but I really hate what is tolerated on the field or the court now that 25 or 30 years ago would not have been. It's not good enough anymore to make a great play and celebrate, it seems that you also have to belittle the person you make the great play against. It starts at the pro level and filters down to all levels.

The coach has stepped down.

It is a sad state of affairs. We are in the midst of a complete lack of respect for anyone in authority. Look at what is going on with our police officers. Even if you disagree with the way you are treated, violence is not the answer. Everyone involved in this should be punished and that includes charges against players and coaches. We cannot allow this sort of behavior to continue!

If I were the official I would be suing the coach and the school in civil court and I'd win.

Don't know how this wasn't brought up. These kids are punks but dude on the right has a hall of fame haircut. [ATTACH]52427[/ATTACH]

 

Coach probably advised him to get that style.

Assistant coach says he handled the situation badly BUT did not order the punks to attack the ref. His lawyer also calls the two rogue players.

"Who will rid me of this troublesome ref?"

The state has allowed the kid who was a sophomore to return to playing his senior year.

Wonder if they consulted with the officials association before allowing him back.

No.

No.

 

Wonder if any officals will refuse to call any of his games.
