Ppl make make mistakes.
This game is specifically built around dominating your assigned opponent physically, mentally and emotionally 100% unambiguously so. I want my players to individually destroy their assignments (the opposing players) so badly they quit playing and begin crying in the middle of the field, so badly the beaten opponents hang up their cleats and retire from the game.
If you don’t understand why tempers would flare, then we just see two differing versions of “the game”. This isn’t me playing when I was 8 years old in the Mighty Might league; unicorns and faeries aren’t in the locker rooms.
I do understand why tempers flare. I'm a grownup. I also understand that saying, "I punched that guy because my temper flared" is precisely the same as saying, "I can't control my temper."
No excuse for an adult to strike another adult while PRACTICING or PLAYING a game. Control your temper, play within the rules, or get off the field.
Very happy coach agrees. Reasonable people win again...
