I think I missed the part of the article where it stated that the starters/better players were in the whole time. After reading other people's comments and reading debates on other forums I can definitely see how the coach was wrong. He was running up the score and didn't care about anything else. And you know, he got carried away in the excitement. Everyone makes mistakes, but the problem is that he acted like he did nothing wrong. If he had admitted that it was wrong and apologized I don't think he would have been fired. Now, on the learning disabilities comment, I thought the children had ADD/ADHD? Michael Phelps had ADHD and started swimming as an outlet for his extra energy. Sports can be great for kids with ADHD so I'm not so sure that is a factor that should be thrown into the debate.

They would have torn him apart but nooooo, no one wants to be banned from sporting events for life so they all just sat back and watched it play out.
