No attempt was made to intentionally run up the score. It just happened.

Makes no sense. Forty-nine runs in baseball don't "just happen".

It happens at the college level where a team starts 7 young freshmen. Hell, it happened all the time at the top of the 9th inning when Bobby Ayala used to be the closer for the Seattle Mariners. ;-)

the coach kept his first string going all-out against a school of special needs kids

Not accurate. In the basketball game, those were not special needs kids.

As I recall, they were Special Ed kids. Not the sharpest pencils in the box.

Even if they weren't, what adult leader would deliberately run his first string, pedal to the metal, until a 100 - 0 score was achieved? (After it was, no further points were scored.)

Mostly I've seen moonbats defend the firing of the basketball coach, but once in a while I see a conservative do so. I'm always surprised by it.

As I pointed out in my post, the Coach did not get his arse fired for running up the score.

He got his arse fired for repudiating his boss in public.

How many conservatives would NOT fire an employee after the said employee repudiated them in public?

My guess would be "Zero".

Actually, those of us whose responsibilities are larger than our egos retain our most talented employees, no matter what they say about us.

I cannot believe somebody beat me to that one. If you ever saw Ay-Ay-Ayala pitch, and it looks like you did, my deepest sympathies.

Hey, you know, the M's are looking for a closer. Bobby Ayala - he's tanned, rested, and ready... ;-)
