Hoover girls denied basketball trophy after winning championship against boys: ‘I’m sorry you don’t count’


Edit: to clarify - the folks who didn’t want little boys in their feelings for losing to girls so they awarded the losers the trophies are the fragile ones.

Even their own coach is denying the poorly reported....reports.

Hoover coach defends not giving girls basketball team a trophy: ‘Our team knew the rules’

It sounds like they knew perfectly well about the rules ahead of time, which were in-place because...well tbh it sounds like the league is pretty B-League. "Elite" teams would join...but would not be allowed a chance at the title. Not super surprising they could win considering the physical gap between girls and boys at that age. The best girl teams can definitely beat the lower end boys' teams

Regardless, they knew the rules according to their own coach, so the outrage seems silly. Good time to learn how contractual law works 😅 But fr congrats to them. Hopefully they come away with their heads held high.

Jackass. You’re more interested in your troll bit than actually talking about the game as it happens. I can respect @bignewt, because when you read his responses, you know he believes it. You on the other hand, while you may believe what you post, but it comes off as a “stick stirring” moment with no substance.

Lol, I don’t ever get “mad” by anything I read on a message board. I remember when you started posting and I agreed with a lot of your posts. No, it doesn’t matter if I agree or not now, but you seem to blanket yourself in your troll persona. That’s why I said I respect BigNewt. When he posts about the refs, you know he actually believes it. Oh, I’m a sis. I only reserve the term bro for those that know me. 😉.

Damn, I knew that. That’s my b, sis. I do entertain myself with some trolling on here.

But trust me, I wholly believe that there is no conspiracy against the Vols. I also believe that anyone who is convinced that there is a conspiracy against the Vols simply has a desire to be the victim.

These are my truths and not troll positions.

Thing about Newt and Marco and Devo is they believe they're better and smarter than anyone that doesn't agree with them. Newt " I thought you were smarter than that" meaning unless you see it my way you're a dumb ass. I don't mind people disagreeing with me, that's fine, but the condescension tells me a lot about their character.

I've asked several times how can you explain the refs changing who the foul was on. I understand refs making bad calls. They don't always have the best of angles. We as fans see it on TV from many different views, in slow motion. They literally had to make a conscious decision to change that call for the benefit of one team. They had to have some motivation to do that. If they'll make that call with the obvious intent to help one team who's to say they won't make others? Their is 100% bias in officiating. The SEC is worse. The SEC is organized crime.

If anyone disagrees and has faith that everything is on the up and up, that's fine. I promise I won't call you a dumb ass for disagreeing with me.

At the heat of game moments, of course we’re going to look at the refs and the calls. Home team fans are always going to eye the questionable calls. It’s a part of the in game experience. We’re no victim, but when someone constantly ridicules fans for questioning refs, it gets old, even if it brings you fun. It’s part of the game. You just seem to find too much enjoyment to ridicule.

Your post seems a little ….. victim-y.

I’d apologize to everyone for hurting their feelings when their conspiracies get popped by real life evidence, but then I’d be an enabler.

So I’ll say this instead: stop being victims you big bunch of babies.

Know what else gets old? I bet you can guess what I’m gonna say 😏.

And finally, it’s not my fault posters can’t handle their emotions during a game so they lash out at refs.

I don't think you're dumb for trying to rationalize bad calls throughout the season. I just think that what we are seeing is human error and decisions made on a personal level to not be blamed for a team losing. I just don't think there is some sort of formal or structured conspiracy to target specifc teams or swing games to a favored team. I think those refs were nervous about fouling out Duke's most senior player and there was enough benefit of the doubt to put the foul on the other guy. They were afraid to make "the call of the game". They didn't get together before the game and say ",let's make sure tennessee loses this one". Overall, the officiating played into Tennessee's favor. They could have easily thrown multiple flagrants on Uros or called it tightly like Shows did.
