Well, well, well….

 

It seems as if you (or at least your credible sources) didn’t know what they were talking about.  

Huh?

UIL has suspended players from sports for the rest of the school year. The teams still are eligible to participate in playoffs.

A probation doesn't mean a playoff ban. It basically puts a team on notice to clean things up or much harsher penalties will be issued.

But that's the point. There was no punishment given to Burkeville by UIL. Just shotty reporting by the two TV stations stating they did. UIL ONLY punished Hull-Daisetta because they were the ONLY playoff team out of the two. That's the facts. I know this because I have spoken to all the parties involved, including DEC and SEC reps.

 

 

You argued that only HD got punished. Or at least that’s what your sources told you. 
 

And it wasn’t true.

I said only Hull-Daisetta got the playoff ban for this season. Burkeville did not receive a playoff ban due to them not being eligible.

Both teams and coaches received reprimands and probation. None of which keeps any of their other sports teams from playing in the playoffs for the rest of school year. Just the players involved cannot participate in sports the rest of the school year.

No, Genius. The kid that got ejected shouldn’t have been there. The kid that he hit shouldn’t have fought back… but he chose to defend himself. No worries, can’t blame him… but he should be punished for retaliating.  
 

The rest of the team and their mamas jumping in? Wrong on every level, and this punishment is well deserved. One kid punching another doesn’t justify the whole team running into the stands swinging. At least not among civilized people. 

Stupid take about the kid fighting back. Agree with you on the parents and other students.

Nope… he participated. I don’t blame him for retaliating… but now he needs to accept his punishment like a man. 
 

For all you know, the HD kid was pointing at his own chin and saying “hit me… I dare you.” If he was, should he still get off with no punishment? 
 

He had a choice. Retreat and avoid all punishment, or retaliate and take whatever consequences result.  These are the consequences of reacting with violence.

This gotta be the most senseless thread, and the most traffic that H-D has gotten since the HDbobcat55 days.
