Texas has new "slaughter" rule...

for Covernant High School girls basketball....If you win by too many points, you're FIRED!

Covernment High School coach was canned for winning.

The "talking heads" on news stations are blaming the coach for running up the score. What the hell is a coach supposed to do, let them score a "mercy basket"?
This coach to his team from a 2-19 first year record to an undefeated team, and played teams from stronger divisions to give the team more experience.
You talk to ANY basketball coach about "letting up" and "taking it easy" on a competitor, and they'll laugh in your face.


Maybe they should cancel ALL sports in this school because they evidently can't handle a winning approach in sports.

This is just another case of "wussifying" the sport and team for excelling in their sport. What's next? Maybe they'll just have an hour of shooting hoops without keeping score, and then they can pat themselves on the back and say that they all played "well".
