Well said! The hating comes from the parents on these blogs. My son played on Express Orange last year and when we finally faced Team 91 in a game, there was no hate from the kids nor the parents. Everyone watched a well played game by both teams with calm sidelines. Everyone truly just respected the game and a game well played. Let's keep in mind that these are boys that love the game and have friends on both teams and are just trying to get better at a game they love. Nothing more. We should be thankful that we have some great competition here on LI.
I agree! Express Orange here also, I agree we played 91 in a great back & fourth game at Lehigh. All the boys & parents with much respect towards each other. Great game boy the than 7th graders this past summer. We came up 1 goal short but a great contest!
