But the truth is that boys will be boys. Why would they change, now? They've always been bigger than everyone in high school. Faster. Stronger. And told that they are the best at whatever they do. If you or I were put in their shoes, we'd act the same way.
So it becomes time for adults to be adults.
The coaches have got to hand out severe punishment across the board to all players. It's the only way this kind of behavior can be prevented. And no, I'm not referring to gassers, stadiums, or one game suspensions against directional opponents.
Nor am I an advocate of “praying for a misdemeanor.”
If there is a true concern for being kicked off of the team or even out of school (which is probably what would happen to regular students in these situations), then maybe these guys would think twice before acting on the same impulses that we all have from time to time.
