I agree. I sure as hell wouldnt feel like a winner after winning something like that.

This is not even remotely the same thing. A foul is a part of the game and when one fouls, you disadvantage the other team. Granted, the rule's stupid, but it's in place, likely, for safety reasons. NOt because it gives any kind of unfair advantage.

If I was the coach, no way in hell I'd pull a prick move like that. This is amateur sports. Teaching these kids sportsmanship is a hell of a lot more important. If I'm a parent/athlete, I would despise the fact that I won because my coach was an overcompetitive asshole.

Douche and STUPID ****ing rule.

If the rule states "jewelry", than "jewelry" should be defined. Webster's Online defines jewelry as: objects of precious metal often set with gems and worn for personal adornment.

A piece of string is not jewelry. The coach is a douche.

I think it unfair cause it seem to be a arcane rule that not a lot people knew about. That he is a bitch and **** his win at all cost attitude he should of told the girl so she wouldn't get dq. I hope he get what coming to him in term of being fired or lose in a similar fashion.

I agree with you 100% if that foul gave the team that committed it some sort of an advantage. Winning due to a reeruned technicality is not really winning at all, and the kids know it deep down inside. They got beat. Technicality that has nothing to do with performance reversed the call.

Coach = complete douchebag and obviously cares more about his resume than the kids.

This.

I wouldn't consider a piece of string to be jewelry.

Bring her in for a look

I think it's ridiculous. Rules are rules, but a douchebag is a douchebag.

If I was the coach of the girl's team that lost I would challenge the rule of what actually constitues something being considered "jewelry." If they have that rule surely they'd have to classify what is or isn't jewelry. A piece of string? Somebody should have asked Coach D-bag if he'd give his wife a piece of string as a present? Of course he wouldn't. So why does it apply to the girl?

Maybe it's because nobody here was in that moment, but nobody thought about challenging that stupid rule? Go to any god damn jewelry store and ask them to show you the "piece of string" section. I've got a feeling you wouldn't have much luck. You leave a term open to interpretation and you can find a way to get around it. I'm as competetive as anyone, but who wants to win like that in amateur sports? What message does that send? Even if you get beat fair and square if you look hard enough you might find a way to win on a technicality? Those are as rewarding as moral victories and in KC we know good those feel!!! :rolleyes:

This is complete bullshit. Like a friendship bracelet gives her an advantage? Give me a ****ing break.

If I were on the winning team, I would fedex that trophy to that girl asap.
This coach should rot in hell.

Sensei Kreese would agree with what that coach did.

I hope he is held to the same standards and expectations in his remaining career as a teacher and coach.

Yeah but he wouldn't agree with REPOST!

I agree. Hope the OP is OK with me adding one...
