[quote=sportsfan02]It was voted on as late as last state body meeting and voted to keep the rule as is. /quote]

The fact it was voted on so recently actually supports another review next year. Has it resolved the purported problems? Did the punishments actually fit the bad behaviors? Every year we have people leave the sport and new people join. Given the severity of the punishment, I think this deserves thorough consideration and the excuse �we already decided that� carries little weight.

[quote=Bronco Wrestler]This issue has needed some teeth put into it and it finally got it. What punishment does a kid who is already losing in say the district consolation semi finals going to get for being flagrant? Other than losing and having to serve 8 days suspension (but I presume following State it goes to the next calendar year), but since it's districts he's not out anything at all, other than the ejection that really means nothing./quote]

This reasoning actually supports my position. If someone �has nothing to lose� and cheap shots someone with a Flagrant Misconduct, they may deserve to miss the State next year. But for a simple ejection, this is too much. Having the same penalty for 8 year old little Jimmy who loses it after being upset and for an official who loses control after getting into it with a coach does not make sense.
