SportsRx: Meltdown of the Week!

This week's award goes to Oscoda High School in Michigan. They cancelled the rest of their season on Wednesday.

Despite pleas from players and parents, the board in the small northern Michigan district recently upheld the school’s earlier decision to end the season, saying players risked injury in trying to take on much stronger opponents.

The team has played four games in which they have failed to win a game or even score a single point.

“When you go to a game on Friday night and see a team physically dominated, those are the indisputable facts,” said coach Kyle Tobin.

Tobin, who is in his first year as head coach at the 530-student school, defended his decision to recommend calling off the season.“I have 28 years of coaching experience in high school and college, and I know the difference between a team playing bad and a team that’s unsafe,” he said.

Maybe the Detroit Lions, Cleveland Browns, Tennessee Titans, Houston Texans and Oakland Raiders should all take advice from coach Tobin.
