Sport should remind you that the world is so much nicer than what race hustlers are trying to sell you. Ignore them and I stead watch the end if this game to see west it’s really like.

I may be the only one that does not like soccer. I have to add the US women actually give respect to to game. If anyone can make the game interesting they do.Matnum PI wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 1:32 pmI doubt that you're the one post-er...cradleandshoot wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 1:18 pmNever been happier to be the one poster here that detests the game of kickball.

Re: Most Ridiculous Posts Hall of Fame
Awful. On more than one occasion, this happened and the black player(s) walked off the field. In at least one case, a player started openly weeping. Today, I wouldn't be surprised if the whole team walked off the field. *At the least*, there'd be an insistence to find out who committed the offense and for there to be repercussions. Immediately. Game stopped, etc. Awful. And, some would say, WHAT?! It's a joke! It's what we do to get under the opponent's skin! And it's working!!! etc. Not today.

Nope, because they actually bust their butts to try and score. The other factor is Abby Wambach is a legend here in Irondequoit. Her family ran a farm market 2 minutes from our house. She is in my opinion the greatest athlete to come out of western NY.Matnum PI wrote:Why's that? because they're American and they've won on the biggest stages?cradleandshoot wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 1:37 pm...I have to add the US women actually give respect to to game.

The "beautiful game" needs to fully understood in order to be fully appreciated.
Most Americans, even now, don't understand the game well enough to actually 'get it'.
But more and more are.

Re: Most Ridiculous Posts Hall of Fame
At the youth / club level, kids can’t play down in age….good players play up. In the old days, league results, state competition, club tournament results followed the team. The more you won, the tougher the competition. Teams earned their way into tournament flights. Results followed teams from u12 through U17. At the team and player level, there is a pyramid philosophy for both the player and teams. The process of player and team development was systematic. Far more so than lacrosse. Also, very little cronyism in soccer compared to lacrosse for instance……Also, the rules of soccer aren’t changed because of clamoring from fans.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 2:08 pmWhat do you mean by "transparent"?Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 2:06 pmYes.

I don’t see us ever having a strict age limit in lacrosse. A rising sophomore lacrosse player is turning 18 in August. A 16 year old is in 8th grade. But, I believe Paul Rabil is getting in position to make youth lacrosse look more like youth soccer. Money to be had if done right. I believe he will be successful and the PLL player/ownership model will help.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 2:18 pmahhh, yes, more transparency in that sense; agreed.Typical Lax Dad wrote: ↑Wed Jun 30, 2021 2:16 pmAt the youth / club level, kids can’t play down in age….good players play up.

I will never understand why a college coach would recruit a kid that’s 12-24 months older and than the competition. No college soccer coach is recruiting a 16 year old based on his play against 14-15 year olds.
