[QUOTE="GaTech4ever, post: 97902, member: 660"] Those in favor of starting Laskey use the argument that "You shouldn't lose your job due to injury" because it isn't fair. But is it fair that Days has had the best 3 game stretch of any back in our offense in years and he loses his job because Laskey gets healthy? What about "making the most of the opportunity" or "letting the play on the field speak for itself"? This is sports. This is not like when a teacher takes maternity leave and the subatitute only temporarily teaches the class. This is competition, the whole point of having backups is to replace starters when needed. In this instance, it just so happens the backup outplayed the starter (I still think Laskey has played well). Did coaches sit Kurt Warner and Tom Brady when Trent Green and Bledsoe got healthy? Obviously two extreme examples but the same rule should apply, this is football and its not like Laskey won't get on the field if Days starts. [/QUOTE]
