Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
Watching Belle Smith not move the ball several times, dodge to the goal and get fouled (which drew card) and then constantly cutting for another goal...yeah, that tells it all right there. Again, she is asking to be fouled.

The hit was dirty. The player is dirty. The team is dirty. The only appropriate response moving forward would have been forfeiture of the next game, Spencer fired, #24 removed from the team and school, loss of ability to vote in any local, state, or federal election for next 25 years, revocation of driver's license, scarlet letter D for dirty on her forehead, her parents should be forced to sell their home and move to Scottsdale as part of witness protection, Dad should be disbarred (even if he isn't an attorney), Mom should lose her board certification (even if she isn't a practicing physician), and lastly, any and all siblings should change last name and transfer schools.OuttaNowhereWregget wrote: ↑Mon Feb 19, 2024 9:10 amWho is better than that--the player?forthelaxofit wrote: ↑Mon Feb 19, 2024 8:44 amGame over or not - no excuse or justification.

Whatever the answer, I think we've had just about enough of the self-righteous indignation from those who are spouting it. Which one among us hasn't done mindless things in our late teenage years or early 20's? Which one among us hasn't hurt another human being, either with our words or actions or physical interactions? Step right up – I'd like to shake your hand and acknowledge that you are a rarity in the long line of human nature. We screw up. We make bad decisions in the heat of the moment. Enough already.

In all seriousness though, she received a red card (appropriate) and had to sit out the next game (appropriate). She isn't a bad person. Her frontal cortex literally hasn't fully developed. She made a mistake, received consequences, and somehow the earth continues to spin.

I didn't catch on until the third "dirty",
That poor girl may only have 1 option left in life after being completely vanquished from society. She can probably run for and be elected as President of the United States! Her actions would not tarnish the office as it is presently. That comment is intended to offend both political parties.

The golf there is phenomenal
Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
Amazing how much time is being spent on this one red card.
First, yes, it was fully warranted. Secondly, if you've watched more games this season then you have witnessed other red cards being issued. I say, IT'S ABOUT TIME! Thank you to the officials for finally holding players accountable for their egregious actions on the field. Green, yellow and red cards are in the rule book and finally being applied in the proper manner.

Inside Lacrosse just named her the best freshman of the 1H of the season. I think they must have meant during the game. After the whistle not so much.

Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
I don't watch a whole ton of Stanford lacrosse. I'll say that upfront. But I seriously doubt she's always engaged in extracurricular activities after the whistle. If you're referring to this game, the rough stuff took place before the whistle. Plus, I like chippy in a player. Not dirty, mind you! Just so nobody gets the wrong idea. But chippy, in general. I like chippy players in men's sports. Why wouldn't I like chippy players in women's sports?Bystanders wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 10:32 am Inside Lacrosse just named her the best freshman of the 1H of the season.

Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
I doubt IL is paying attention to any of that. The article starts out by saying they only consider HS ‘23 grads and proceeded to misspell RS freshman (therefore a ‘22) Polisky’s first name incorrectly. If they can’t get that straight they aren’t noticing much.

Byrne with 2 goals (I think, just tuned in) as Clemson leads ND.
Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
To be fair, she was an early enrollee. So technically a 23 who just skipped her senior season.OuttaNowhereWregget wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 2:52 pmWell said.hsllax wrote: ↑Fri Mar 22, 2024 1:12 pm I doubt IL is paying attention to any of that.

Saw this earlier today. Terrible from the player and equally terrible call from the officials. Easy straight red.tothedraw wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 7:40 pm https://www.instagram.com/reel/C5BhDCbr ... h4aHVxZ2tz

Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
Looked like a heat of the moment type deal. She regretted it immediately. Easy to see from her body language. Agreed though--should have been a red.laxlaxlax wrote: ↑Wed Mar 27, 2024 8:47 pmSaw this earlier today. Terrible from the player and equally terrible call from the officials.

Re: Stanford Player Gets Red Card for Hit
The school or conference should suspend this player. She may have regrated her actions, but she still acted! Use her as an example and set a good precedent so this doesn't happen again in a game. Do we really need to wait until someone is seriously injured?

Reading some of the way too harsh comments under this Instagram post is disappointing. A red card would have been plenty.

She has 3 years of eligibility left. How long will it take for her to get her degree, hit the portal, and move up to varsity?
