100-0 Coach fired, wtf?

[CowZ]

I don't know if any of you guys read/watched on ESPN about this school in Texas.

Heres the link if you havn't seen itFox News

I think its pretty jacked up that this coach got fired. If anything, they should fire whoever was reffing the game. The article says there are no mercy rules in their games but honestly this should have been an exception. If the winning team ran down the clock by passing the ball around (playing monkey in the middle), I would think that would be a bigger blow to the losing team's players than the 100 points. What do you guys think?

A parent who attended the game said Covenant continued to make 3-pointers ? even in the fourth quarter.

Fuck him.

Covenant was up 59-0 at halftime.

Dallas Academy has eight girls on its varsity team and about 20 girls in its high school. It is winless over the last four seasons.

He called 100-0 a "wide-margin" victory and sent an e-mail to a newspaper publicly disagreeing AFTER his school had issued a formal apology signed by it's president and chairman of the board. He's a douche bag.

X2. OP. try understanding the old and reposted story before chirping in. The guy wasn't fired for the victory, he was fired for throwing a public hissy fit that undermined the schools official policy and statement on the incident.
