I used to coach 9-year olds playing hockey. We had an awesome team. Whenever we were up large, I put a leash on my best players and wouldn't allow them to score any more. They had to pass; had to set some of the weaker players up for a goal. Upon explanation, "good sportsmanship" I would explain.
They were nine year-olds!
So now we have the New England Patriots sending a sound message to the NFL. Not exactly sure what that message is, but it sure is a message.
Running up the score. So? Aren't these guys professionals?
Let's look at other sports. Up 7-1 in the NHL and I'm likely to play my third and fourth liners more. And let me tell you something, they're going to bust their asses to try and score. It's all about stats. Same goes for NBA players. No let up for the guys playing. In the Major leagues, even subs aren't going to stop hitting homers. it's all about stats. Now, I'll grant you this: most likely up 10-0 in baseball the manager's got the red light on all base stealers. But the hits just keep on coming. Have a look at what Texas did to Baltimore in baseball during the summer.
If the Red Skins didn't like what the Pats were doing, they should have done something about it. That is completely in their control. Fourth down? Stop them. If you don't, why blame the Pats for executing. Just look in the mirror.
I don't believe professional sports teams should ever take the gas off the pedal. And it's not a matter of poor sportsmanship. These aren't 9-year olds. Or are they?
