Dral Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 This move is idealized is movies and fiction.... I've seen more then one comment on this board suggestion/wishing a similar fate on NHL refs.... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNCrs63JeuM Now... making a bad call, as a ref, in highschool games has consequences.... are they warranted? Is retaliation, at this level of sports, justified? Honestly, if I was in highschool and my team almost lost because of an obvious bad call, I'd probably call for his head... as a 'mature' adult, I want to say we should be better then this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jiggs50 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 That's pretty bad. The ref doesn't deserve that. He should sue them imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lancaster Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 That teams coaches will probably be gone, school penalized, all refs will probably make sure most calls will be targeted against them..... players on that team probably shouldn't be expecting a future in that sport (pro or even scholarship).

SaintPatrick33 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Wow the ref was defenceless, that was a brutal hit. No excuse for that, unless the ref was somehow found to be making bets and purposely calling the game to repay a mob debt.......actually even still that hit was ruthless.

I R Baboon Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Saw this on youtube. Kids should be charged for sure, the ref could have been paralyzed from that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dral Posted September 7, 2015 Author Share Posted September 7, 2015 "It's only Highschool"... what level of pro sports do we need to be at and what kind of bad calls need to be made before this is an acceptable tactic? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Sikes Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 That teams coaches will probably be gone, school penalized, all refs will probably make sure most calls will be targeted against them..... players on that team probably shouldn't be expecting a future in that sport (pro or even scholarship). I saw TWO players hit the ref, those two should likely never play organized football at any level for a very long time if ever, and should definately be charged with assault, no way they could claim the ref just got in the way, the second guy piled on when he was already down. Unless you can prove the coach endorsed or even knew this was planned he shouldn't suffer, the guy can't directly control the players on the field, I also don't think the entire program or players that didn't do anything wrong should be punished, to me it seems the two guys in the back field planned and executed this on thier own.

Not acceptable at any level. Edit: My mistake, he did it while playing for Chicago Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
