Coach was 100% right to bench player. Actually shows something by benching one of the best players. I was wondering how many coaches would have done that. Don't know why I thought of this, but back in the day when Jimmy Johnson was coaching the Cowboys(I am from Philly and hate the Cowboys), he had a completely different take on this subject. He openly stated that there are different rules for the star players. He claimed if Troy Aikman or Emmitt Smith were late to a meeting or practice it was ok. If a bench player was late to a practice or meeting, they would be cleaning out their lockers. For the record, I am in no way endorsing the "star" treatment. I applaud the coach for his actions. Has anyone ever played on a team that openly treated the better players with a different set of rules? Just wondering.
