Case in point. After all, the post is just stupid, right? If it was a better post, a more pointed criticism, a little more to what you believe to be correct in your own experience, it would be a good post and you would give it a thumbs up. Let me begin this again. Michelle Romero in her good graces created a league where all kids can play soccer in a safe environment that suits their level. It truly is the SCDSL because all kids are developing. She was kind to all DOCs and made the sport about the kids. She never tried to make an extra dime for all of her hard work in scheduling games. She always was diligent in returning phone calls and did what was best for US Soccer.Quite a deep post there @justified ...
You created your account on Monday, come swinging for the fences and then come calling out people. I don't know who you are and what almighty club you represent that you are bashing SCS based on what I'll assume that your kid's team didn't get accepted into Man City Cup.
I don't own any moral grounds nor I'm sitting on a high horse (Well Maybe). I haven't coach for years now nor care to go back. I don't throw kids under the bus as that is counterproductive to their learning experience nor its part of my leadership and accountability skills acquired during my former full time career. So I'm missing your point about coaches and clubs being kept in check as part of your issue.
Lastly regardless of whether is a rant, criticism or simply a temper tantrum, your post along with the other 2 are simply STUPID! Do you want to be taken seriously, use your real handle!
Bro, you're kidding yourself and your rant is the weakest thing I've ever seen. What the hell are you talking about "my handle?" Everyone is anonymous here. You accuse me of what you are guilty of, and you do it all the time. You accuse me of swinging for the fences. I should wait a week before I call you out old fart? As I said, look back to your past posts on other threads, you always follow the same theme. If someone has a legitimate criticism of a system, say Cal South, or a club, you side with the club or in this case you side with a corrupt tournament director for what reason? Above you ask why a team would boycott a tournament because it hurts the kids in the end. DUDE? Wake up. You don't do these tournaments when from the core they are corrupt and a joke. The cost to parents and families is huge. Michelle Romero and surf turned the DA bracket in a mockery by bringing in the very most known and the most unknown, for purely political reasons. Yet you don't consider that, you look at what would normally be the best course action, not what is actually happening.
You compare my post to someone else who has legitimate concerns about coaches. If someone has a concern, they have experienced it. You blow that off because they are speaking emotionally. Bro, like I said, the world has changed since you got your first hot rod. This thread was created because people involved in club soccer in Southern California do not have the best interests of the kids at heart. If US Soccer is going to change, that has to change. Everyone who deals with corrupt officials like Michelle Romero know what she is, but they have to follow along if they want their teams to play in club leagues. If you have something valid to say on this point, then say it. If not, go back to the 1950s.
