Not ball, but still sports..

  This jerk should be barred from sports for at least a couple years, if not for all his high school years.

  Character building should be part and parcel of any sport played in school..

   Self-control is one thing that is required for sports, if they don't learn that early, they will be a "sore loser" for life, making life miserable for others.  IMO.. here is a chance for somebody to make a solid statement about the recent lack of sportsmanship.

Saw that, and I agree.  Should be banned from ALL scholastic sports for the entirety of his school days, (including college).

black kid punches a white kid! what the hell do you think will happen??? the white kid and the school will probably be in court because racism was the cause and the black kid was effected by the fact his great great great grandpa was a slave. probably colleges lined up to give him a wrestling scholarship

  Ethnicity aside...that kid in blue, is a loser in more ways than one. 

1) A loser because his parent(s) never taught him better..

2) A loser, because he has not learned self control on his own.     ...and ..

3) He will remain a loser, unless somebody 'smartens' him up soon.
