People Who Should NOT Be Fired: Micah Grimes

Micah Grimes, the coach of the girls' basketball team that owned an opponent 100-0 recently, was fired because of how he handled the blowout victory. In an open letter responding to his coaching performance, Grimes writes...

"We started the game off with a full-court press. After 3 minutes into play, we had already reached a 25-0 lead. Like any rational thinking coach would do, I immediately stopped the full-court press, dropped into a 2-3 zone defense, and started subbing in my 3 bench players. This strategy continued for the rest of the game and allowed the Dallas Academy players to get the ball up the court for a chance to score. The second half started with a score of 59-0. Seeing that we would win by too wide of a margin, running down the clock was the only logical course of action left. Contrary to the articles, there were only a total of four 3 point baskets made; three is the first quarter, and only 1 in the 3rd quarter. I continued to sub in bench players, play zone defense, and run the clock for the rest of the game."

This sounds like a good coach who unfortunately played a school that doesn't deserve to have a team. Fire that coach. 100-0? You could have me and my buddies play the Celtics and I guarantee we don't lose that bad.

Oh, and icing on the cake. The girls who LOST - featured on every major news network and are now national heroes.
