a little harsh?
Nope, now the guy wasn't one of the starters or anything...he was a reserve player that quite likely could have been on the way out soon anyway, but he expedited the situation by fumbling at a crucial moment in the game. Again...highlighting the difference between how Europeans look at sports vs us Yanks. I had no issue with what the coach did. The player was being paid a lot of money and couldn't complete even the most fundamental task without screwing up. Time to go...and it let everyone know that they were held to a high standard and if they didn't meet it, they could look for new employment as well.
