EVERY organization is in business to make money.
Remember that social media is a biased sample. Families playing Roblox in the hotel room probably post less social media than the families eating out in the hotel restaurant.
do you know the people in the pictures? did they already have covid ? maybe they took a mask off for a second to take a pic? you are using a snap shot in time to defame a group of people that you are mad at for doing what is best for their family.
Or the coach says do you have any game footage i can see...."no sorry it was 2020"...."ok well let me know when you do I have to move on"
Yes. I know these people in the pictures. How else would I see their social media pictures? I'm not defaming them (dramatic much?). It is obvious from their pictures their families are not just going from their rooms to their games and back and keeping to themselves. It's not the playing of soccer that is the risk. It's all the other behavior outside of soccer that is the risk. That's been the point all along. That is all.
Then EVERYONE beside fire, police and ER folks should be home. I was at store just now and it's packed. The beach is crowded with tourist and kids are at the park. I saw a 5 on 5 hoops game with adults. That's my cents about all this.
This got me thinking what was our biggest win and biggest loss as a team. Worst loss I believe was 6-0 back in 2017. Biggest win was 9-0 in 2019. Funny thing is the games weren't actually blowouts. There were good plays made and everyone was still competing until the end. I also think as a keeper parent we look at it differently when you are getting beat. You see some great saves even in the loss, or a 2 on 1 that maybe should have been played differently. Nobody seems to care about 48-7 in football or 84-10 in basketball.
It's a tough go for the 21s. The only way to recruit at this stage in the process is via video. CA kids and coaches are constrained.
I saw some folks breaking protocol when i was there, I wont lie. It was 90% excellent though, just like here. I see folks in our state as well breaking some of the guidelines and I just stay 6 feet away. I swear if you dont let anyone spit on you, sneeze on you, cough on you or anywhere near you at least 6 feet, you will not get the Rona. That is fact.
You're way too logical, how'd you end up on this forum?
I have nothing against what the truth is about college and soccer and scholarship. My dd friend, who has a 4.7, already has a almost full ride at most schools she's interested in. Gifted is understatement and a good soccer player. Might not have top 25 all over her, but she has passion and heart and can run D1 speed wise but not the best IQ in the games and would sit on the bench at big U. She needs to pick the school that she can play at and get amazing degree so she can be an Engineer someday. Their hoping a door opener because of soccer and coach is open to sharing 10% with her. I think her parents have a few bucks so they can kick down the other 10% if need be. I loved playing hoops in college. It made it fun. it was harder on us as student athletes to get excellent grades and ball at a high level to bring notoriety to school in newspaper. Good luck to your dd. These are super hard time for parents who told goats to wait until new rules and that June 15th meet up on the phone and set up visits. Tough times indeed and I was wrong. She should have emailed in 8th grade when she was hot stuff
