Chris:

I think as a sport, we should be more concerned with the fact that Team Rage was allowed to play on even after creating the altercation then whether or not Robbo walked onto the field.

Robbo has already admitted he was wrong for going onto the field, and has already said that he would accept any consequences of his actions there. Plus, he had permission from the field judge to be there.

But, what of Team Rage? They went on to play every game and even played in the Sem-Finals. They're a "Pro team", they are "visible". Why aren't you concerned with their actions and the lack of reaction because of their actions??

I think what Team Rage did is much greater than what Robbo did. All he did was walk onto the field.

And, no, I'm not defending Robbo either. I will say that he's wrong for going onto the field...but he's already admitted that.

Nick, I appreciate your concern and I know you are saying this for the rigth reasons and I also know I am my own worst enemy in situations like this but I can't stand the little pr1ck and if I went round his house slagging him off, I am prety sure it wouldnt be long before he showed me the door.
I simply don't like him and I don't want him talking about me on p8ntballer.com with the attitude and agendas he has, it's as simple as that mate.
Not his house and he was warned, I will let others judge me as they see fit.

All I will say on the matter of Rage being allowed to play on is that if they had been banned, Nexus would have been dragged into it even though not one of my players was anywhere near what happened and all kept way aways from it, thank god !!!
I did not give a damn if I got banned but somebody in that committe wanted to give me the same punishment as them AND drag Nexus into it, that wasn't going to happen !

Well Pete

Brian: I still don't see why everyone believes it is wrong for a team manager to step onto a field after a game, after having obtained permission to do so from the refs?
It's a grey area. On one hand, he had permission from the field judges to be there, and as a Nexus team member, he had every right to be there, but as an NPPL Official, should he have stepped back?

In an infinitesimal sense, Chris is kind of right. It's all about public perception and judgement. People will look at the situation and say "Well...he's an NPPL Official....he should not have been there." Keep in mind that they'll be basing their opinion on heresay and from hearing it third-person, but still - it's public perception in the end.

But, like I said...we should be more concerned with the fact that Rage was allowed to play on, and, sad as it is, nothing will ever come to them for the situation they started.

Perhaps this will change in 2004.

Robbo:

If Nexus didn't take any actions, then they wouldn't have been dragged into it.

What happened was between an NPPL Official and another team.

But, according to the rules, there's only a 1-for-1 for fighting, so if any thing Nexus should have gotten 100 points for that game if all five players were involved.

It ONLY gives you the right to be part of the team that write the rules.

Nick
My apologies there then. I thought the two were one in the same. (See...I perceived Robbo as being an official...public perception).

Perhaps I should forward a copy of my email to Mr. Hendsch to Robbo. :D
