God that is HELP I AM TRAPPED IN 2006 PLEASE SEND A TIME MACHINE. Trying to foster and non-copetitive spirit in a competetive sport?

***wish that worked in the work force. Consistently preform the worst and don't show up to work get a promotion yay!


Seriously if the kids have an ounce of brains it is going to lead to really really boring game. Score 4 points rq then just hold the ball or purposely kick it out. Oh darn I missed again shucks.

In most leagues of any sport - there's a 'slaughter rule.' (for ones where the clock stops on fouls and stuff)

If the other team is winning by x amount (usually a high amount), the clock keeps running. No point in standing around when a team is getting owned.

No idea, but it reminds me of the No Child Left Behind policy of our government school systems. If a kid flunks 4th or 5th grade, they advance him anyway. And we wonder why Georgia has had some of the worst graduation rates in the nation -_-

If you talked to some of the people i work with, you would think that's the way one of our departments runs. Complete *** if you ask me.

Ones that get their feelings hurt and QQ because they got an answer wrong in school. Then they cut themselves because the teacher used red ink to correct their mistake.

Life is cold, cruel, unjust and unforgiving. Rules won't always be made to hold your hand when you fail out in the real world. Better get used to this fact sooner than later.
