There were two different videos concerning the injury to players of which only one occurred during actual play. The tying up of the ball and the trying to jerk it away is not illegal. But the punch thrown by the white jersey team player should have been an arrestable offense.

One of the things players parents need to consider at both genders is the possibility of injury if they are sending their kids out to a non-recreational “sporting” event that has meaning to select people. The players in high school get looked at by higher level like colleges and pro league organizations, the coaches get into those higher paid positions within the schools systems by success, and schools are inconsistently funded for athletics. Some sports are completely ignored except by the parents and others that support the schools through making the other parents happy so they will vote for school bonds and tax monies.

So getting ahead is what makes things like this possible. The NBA is a perfect example. They bring in big people and pay them exuberant monies to play a violent game that draws butts to the seats and people buying jeries on the internet. The larger they go, the more money flies into the coffers. But with this business plan brings a variety of people, some very violent and lawless. And now that the violence has leaked down into recreation youth sports programs, now they want to complain. But you’ve got schools getting better funded, coaches getting those million dollar jobs in college or pro teams, and players getting full ticket rides in colleges or high pay in leagues all over the world.

This started years ago and the virus has just spread lower. And this is a surprise?
