Ironically enough, it was my dentist this morning who told me about this story so I decided to look it up.
Last week a girl's high school basketball team in Dallas beat another team 100-0.

Then I found another article from a couple days later that because of the 100-0 win, the winning school fired their coach. This team was at a Christian school.

The winning team, Covenant, wants to forfeit the game.
What do you think - should they have fired the coach??
I think the issue was that he went against what the school said. Like the school apologized and then he said that was stupid and it was fine. I can see why a school (or any employer) wouldn't want to have a person working for them who publicy goes against what they say. You know? And seriously. 100 - 0. Was that necessary??
