I disagree sort of. If a winning team is calling off the dogs -- that's definitely respectable and classy. And if the losing team reciprocates, then the game is effectively over.
But the losing team has the _gentlemen's right_ to keep working their ass off and keep trying -- they might have new players in and want to give them a look or try new things. That's still respectable and the winning team has to recognize that. IF the losing team decides to keep working then the winning team can continue the punishment. It's up to the losing team to decide.
If De Sousa would’ve flew down the court and dunked one over a scrub at the buzzer, would that have been ok? Would KU be receiving any flak for that?
Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

No. KU paid a bunch of money for a player that kinda sucks. And now this. Talk about not worth it.
Also, it feels like random Walmart Tshirt Ku fan has no problem with SDS getting the axe. Is it because he was wrong? LOL Hardly.
Clears up a spot for the next 100K adidas guy AND it keeps the spotlight on De Stoolsa and off 2 real contributors, McCormack and Garrett who weren't in the game but seriously involved in the melee. Ku fans (Self and admins too) would happily take getting rid of Stoolboy if they go easy on the others. In a Doug Compton, Adidas wearing, 4 team parlay second.

No, as I said, that would have been douchey. When the loser made a grab at the ball, if De Sousa wouldnt have been asleep, if he had chucked a 3 point hail mary in response, that would have been just fine. If the loser doesn't quit, then the winner isn't obligated to.
I don’t really care one way or the other how things should go with blowout endings but it should be equal treatment and perception both ways. If the losers aren’t gonna quit, then let the winners ally oop the eff out of them with 2 seconds left and not get mad about it.
When the winning team is doing the noble thing and dribbling the ball out to end the game, basically mercifully ending the game without it getting worse, then the losers better say “thank you” and take their 20 point beat down and go home.Deuces Valley.
... No really, deuces.

According to some K-State fans, some of this started before the steal as DeSousa elbowed or forearmed someone away from the play and wasn't called for it. Does anyone have the ability or the interest in checking that out to see what they are talking about?
