Short Handed

Well, instead of everybody having their own topic, I thought I would just start a new one that can consolidate all the teams playing short handed due to suspensions. We don't need to name players!

Confirmed to date:

WBL - 10
East Ridge - 7

Does it really matter that much?

I think it does. Accountability - nothing wrong with that.

On the score board, no it doesn't. But to know that teams are short handed, whether it be suspensions or injuries, is important. While it's not a suspension, knowing that one of Tonka's best players is hurt and they still haven't lost a game is a good tid bit.

If you know of suspensions, and the length of suspension, being a discussion board, that could stir up discussion.

Just my two cents

He never mentioned injuries, he made this only for suspensions

As long as the discussions remain civil and non-inflammatory, why not? We may all learn something, who knows?

Moderators will referee in any case, and that's a good thing.

Since we have sources that like to rank teams, and discussion also pertains to this team beat that team, and by how much, I would think knowing about suspensions and/or injuries is important.

I didn't include injuries because I thought the list would become too long. Missing games due to injuries, or playing hurt, both have an affect on a game. Some injuries are worse than others.

So, I'm going with the KISS method. Suspension only!
