I realize it’s a rehash for some ppl, but I was watching the 1st season of last chance U.

Do you think the fight could have been prevented?

Would you rather guys come help a teammate getting kicked/jumped, or stay on the sideline?

Do you think it’s the nature of JUCO ball? Do you think it was right for EMCC to lose a playoff chance defending themselves?

There are many parallels to how Ole miss lets their players act on the field. No doubt in my mind the speaks deal was on purpose.

I finally tried adding a little honey to the mix while grilling pork chops. In the past, I preferred a chili powder/onion powder dry rub that brought out more of a smoky flavor, but I’ve since realized the importance of locking the “sweet heat” flavor into the meat by brushing a little honey on each side. Helps me stay woke.

Not that I give a crap about the topic of the OP, but this type NAFOOM cross talk BS that purposely has no validation of the original OP is pointless and just bumps the original topic that you're clearly not ready to speak to as an adult. Why do this? Please explain.

To answer your questions....

I realize it’s a rehash for some ppl, but I was watching the 1st season of last chance U.

Do you think the fight could have been prevented?

Would you rather guys come help a teammate getting kicked/jumped, or stay on the sideline?

Do you think it’s the nature of JUCO ball? Do you think it was right for EMCC to lose a playoff chance defending themselves?

Yes the fight could have been prevented as there were numerous signs that something was building but it would have taken proaction by the game officials much earlier in the contest. Once the Delta players did what they did there was no way possible to prevent it.

Well the correct answer is yes I would hope they would stay on the sideline but when a teammate is helpless on the ground being stomped by numerous players from the other side with no effort from their coaches to intervene then there is no way in hell that is going to happen and it is understandable.

Is this the nature of JUCO ball? I'd say no since I have never seen anything quite like that happen in my years of watching. JUCO ball is by its nature of being a haven for troubled players going to always be rough around the edges but what happened at Delta looked to be to be perpetrated by not just the players but by a coaching staff too which is different. So with that said no I don't think it was right for them to lose their playoff chance but it is also obvious the entire MACJC saw that as a chance to join in and stick it to Buddy Stephens so there was no way that suspension wasn't going to stand up. And with that said, it is also stephens has himself partially to blame for being such an insufferable prick for so long. It was all so perfectly timed too because being that it happened on the last game of the season it spilled into the next season and ultimately cost EMCC possibly two NCs.

100% could have been avoided.
100% its in part the nature of JUCO ball- a lot of the players arent as disciplined as needed to be in 4year college and are more impulsive/dont think thru choices before making them. Its why some(many?) are in JUCO.
EMCC losing out on a playoff chance was dumb and preventable. Stupid that they were banned, but they did it to themselves.

The coaches and refs should have all been fined and suspended. Coaches on both sides of the field, to be clear.
Just a pathetic testosterone filled event that was impulsive and emotionally driven. Its a textbook case in how to aggravate the opponent and 17 up their season without beating them.

When the german players were kicking the brit player in the head, The British head coach Churchill was upset that the American players did not come to the aid of their Brit teammate soon enough.

well, they punched the trainer in the head before the game. I guess 6 stitches is a sign. Then they late hit 5 guys way beyond the whistle.

You can’t have kids doing that. the ref should have tossed the first blatant late hit (on the QB Roberts I guess) and tell the coach that every late hit is an ejection. I suppose you should also eject retaliatory hits too.

Coaches were suspended. Of course delta had nothing much to lose and EMCC had everything to lose thus why it happened.

Your players reciprocate your coaches attitude.
When your coach is a disrespectful loose cannon, you can expect the players to be the same.
