It has always been a topic of debate in the sporting world; at what point is scoring too many points a sign of poor sportsmanship and lack of respect for the opponent. Is is Tom Brady and the New England Patriots putting up 52 points against the Washington Redskins, throwing deep passes late in the game? Some say yes, some say they are paid professionals, they get paid to put up points. Well, what about amateurs, like high school football.
This brings me to the Smith Center Redmen. Apparently, they have taken the act of scoring to a new level, an art form really. In nine games this season, this small town high school in Kansas has been outscoring 640-0 this season. That is an average of 71 points per game. Most recently, racking up 72 points in the 1st quarter. I understand the argument that a team is just doing what they are supposed to, but come on, how hard is it for a coach to send in the C squad, dummy the offense, and run up the middle when the score is 40+ to zero? Talking to friends who have watched this team play, they haven't done much to pull starters and simplify the offense, they continue to do what they do. Great team, probably, respectful, no way!!!!

I don't think you should let up until half time. Your starters worked all week to play. There is no reason why they shouldn't get to.
