More Cowbell Wrote:I think if a coach wants to leave his starters in the whole game, that's his prerogative. If the other team doesn't like it, they can do something about it. I won't call the coach classless for leaving them in.

But I will call it dumb. Leaving the starters in a game that is already decided leaves open the possibility of an injury to a key player. This in turn could sabotage the rest of the season. A coach would look pretty silly if he sacrificed the rest of the season just so his starters could tack on some more points.

Plus, this is primo time to get some young players into a real game and earn experience that can't be simulated on the practice field. This experience for the younger players will eventually pay off later in the year and next season.

Good point
