Recently a high school girls’ basketball game in Dallas ended with a score of 100-0. With the score 80-0 in the fourth quarter the winning team was still shooting 3-pointers and piling it on. I’ve seen games where the final score is 15-8 so 100-0 seems a little ridiculous right? Do you think the coach of the winning team should be fired for pressing his players to keep scoring again and again?
I’ve been on the losing end of a blowout game a few times and it doesn’t feel good, but I also know what it’s like to win big. At what point in a game do you stop competing and show a little compassion? Tell me about a blowout game you participated in. I’d love to hear your story.

this isn't basket ball but it's still a story... one day i was playing a softball game against a team in Lake Forest IL well they aren't such a good team so we were beating them like... 10 to nothing or somethin like that. and my coach said to not steal home anymore to show compassion, i am ok with that for a little bit but then for the rest of the game!? NO well we ended up winning like 10 to 5 and that game should have been 10 to 1 or somethin. i'm on a different team now and that will never happen again!
