If you lose to 106-0 to any team in competitive sports, you probably shouldn't have a team LOL

Seriously, the real outrage here should be directed at the coaching staff of the team that lost. What on Earth were they doing, or not doing, that put their team at such a disadvantage?

My opinion may not count... but, I would suggest the losing coach field a team that is competitive or give up the sport entirely. Maybe they could switch to synchronized swimming or something not as so trying.

That’s good sportsmanship and a good lesson for the players. Caring about the dignity of others is sadly in very short supply these days. All about me me me me me.

Yes, but they did pull their starters BEFORE halftime. So it was the back ups and third stringers most of the game.

Exactly. It's a disgrace that was allowed to happen.

Our high school put in all freshman in the 2nd half and still won by 60. What are they supposed to do?

This has nothing to do with snowflakes and everything to do with good sportsmanship. It was likely apparent within minutes of the kickoff one team was far superior..

There was no need to humiliate the other team and run up the score like that.

Big difference between 60 and 106.
