Then you also have to disagree with Marty McSorley getting charged for his attack on Donald Brashear? Or are you saying that he should have only been charged if he killed the player. Where would you draw the line?
If an incident that is criminal occurs in any sport, charges can be laid and should be. That is how it should be, or where do you draw the line. Obviously, there are things in a game that would not lead to charges as a participant would have to be from Mars not to know the inherent risks such as an injury that might result from a hard tackle.
BTW, the game with Sikh Temple was fine up until the latter stages of the second half when #5 put a Sap player out of the game with a vicious and very late tackle above the shin guard. Up until that point, it was a fairly played game with no incidents of any sort for the ref to have to handle. From that point, it got a bit scrappy unfortunately.
For any Sikh Temple players to complain about Sapperton while ignoring what two of their guys did is a bit much.
WAB, your post is a bit over the top. I wouldn't suggest that our buddy Larrsson would do any of those things. |
