And here's the THIRD major football incident in Southern California this weekend?
(Source: Riverside Press-Enterprise)
Notre Dame High School of Riverside, CA and Santa Fe Springs (CA) St. Paul High School attempted to play a football game last Friday night, September 9, 2016.
They failed.
In the third quarter, with the visitors from Santa Fe Springs up 17-0, a massive brawl emptied both benches, causing so many ejections that not only was the game terminated, not only was the game declared a double-forfeit, but the California Interscholastic Federation has ordered both teams to serve their suspensions, suspending THE ENTIRE TEAM OF BOTH TEAMS for one game.
Meaning that both teams now have two forfeit losses on their record.
I'm still not 100% sure this is enough. I'm not 100% sure both schools should not have their football terminated for the year, if not the expulsion of the students who actually caused this. Both are religious private schools, and one would have to think that, even with the words of being through hard times, that both schools damn well better have serious further student sanctions against any individuals that precipitated this sorry affair.
But what the fuck has been in the water this weekend? Ref attack in the junior colleges, ref shoved in the major colleges, double-forfeit major brawl in the high schools.
WHAT
THE
FUCK???
