HS Brawl

Posted: 3/24/2015 11:01:17 PM

To get this out of the Embarassing thread and not have folks clock on that thread I started this new one to follow this saga.

Brutal initial brawl https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnrcwyv13cI and quite a hoo haa to follow. Courts involved and kids got reinstated to land themselves in the 3a state final this weekend

background.... (and I still do not see how the courts over rule the IHSAA bylaws that call for penalizing conduct)

Now this would be embarrassing. Anywhere near you borna?

Big black eye and a hotly debated topic on our local board. That is up in "Da Region" where they have a different time zone (with Chicago) and think they are more Illinois than Indiana. Gary/Hammond/Whiting and those areas hate the downstate and always claim they have better players and anyone south of us 30 has no concept of hoops. They are mean, undisciplined and try to be inner city tough.

Both schools had the remainder of the season cancelled by the IHSAA prompting a quote from a former director dating back to Everett Case (google that one for some bball history) and his scandals in the 1930's "The rule is clear and the penalty severe."

Post from our board.

Hammond, Griffith seasons cancelled Reply

I am OK with the IHSAA finally showing some spine and telling those parents it is not ok to go out on the floor following an malicious attack by a player on another player. Compounding the poor sportsmanship and actions with parents getting out of hand is insane. Officials got it right. Call the game, clear the gym and get the governing body involved. If parents and kids do not know there are consequences for actions there is no way they will be better humans down the road

Welllllll

Griffith sued the IHSAA and a lake County court upheld it forcing the IHSAA to pu them in the tourney. Despite their average season they mde it through the tourney and will play in the state 3a Final next week. Their parents and followers have taken to the local message boards and are rubbing it in the noses of the entire state as if the entire population was persecuting thier children who have always been lil angels and perfect citizens. EEEESH. The region certainly has a different opinion of what is right and wrong. The same parents who are out on the floor hhere are the most vocal https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0l4I3QFEtyw...[/QUOTE]

never argue with idiots, they bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Winter comes and asks how you spent your summer.....

The game loves and rewards those who love and reward the game
