SauI_Goodman posted... This is why the mercy rule was invented. There is no mercy rule. The game is called off only when a team doesnt have enough players to continue, or the physical well-being of the players is in jeopardy. Prep baseball/softball is the closest youll get to a no contest rule where if one team is winning by so many runs before a certain inning the umpire will call the game. And this is done because unless the other team can get three outs the innings will go on indefinitely. --- PSN: scorpion_4160 Currently Playing: NCAA 14(PS3) ... Copied to Clipboard!

Well ok, I guess if the main purpose of school sports is to encourage children to develop a passion for athletics, then it's probably a net positive if you can guide your children to win an easy game without crushing the spirits of the other school's children.

I doubt all of these girls are living in such a bubble considering the ones that lost are in public school.

Strider102 posted... TFW you get punished for winning too much. To be fair prep and highschool sports are just as much teaching sportsmanship and lessons as it is winning. Like 1% of kids will make it pro. If they are playing normally then it's dumb to suspend him but if he was only pressing in the first half and that's their gameplan then it's whatever. Like take out starters play kids that normally don't play and if you're still bopping then not much you can do. --- The night brims with defiled scum,and is permeated by their rotten stench.

I think we went up 42-0 once in a half of high school football and they just ran the clock the second half. No time stoppages for out of bounds, incompletions, first downs, or for after change of possession(TO/punts/kickoffs). There were still time stops after touchdowns I think for the PATs and for lining up kickoffs. Just one example, not entirely sure how it'd translate into basketball. Likely just no time stoppage for ball out of bounds? --- http://i.imgur.com/iB1sU.jpg http://i13.photobucket.com/albums/a290/juliaxx/Picture56.jpg Free stuff! ... Copied to Clipboard!
