They don't use "code words" from the sideline like "trigger" to tell the girls to tighten their stick pockets because they don't have to because they don't play with illegal equipment. (oh btw, he admitted that, and apologized for it)

BBP coaches don't train player to grab their heads on any check, or take dives trying to sway the refs.

BBP coaches don't use their outside relationships to influence the way refs call the game. (count the calls in that game, see if that is a balanced game between two comparably experienced teams) BBP coaches don't pull the refs aside before a game to let them know what things should be called and how--and if they ever do speak to the refs, they invite the opposing coach over to listen as well.

BBP Alumni players don't stand on the sideline an yell disgusting obscenities at the opposing team players. BBP parents don't go up to the opposing team players after the game and say, "That's what we felt like two years ago"... an adult to a minor...

BBP doesn't cheat to win. They do not pervert and twist the intention of game to win. They play the game the way it was intended. If you are going to teach 14 to 17 year old girls to cheat to win, and find loopholes in rules to win, and use referees to gain an advantage, that does not make you a great coach, that is someone who should really consider stepping down as a coach/role model.

BBP had an excellent year, with excellent players who played together perfectly with a perfect season. And no one player outweighed the rest --- look at the stats. That team will always be a beautifully perfect team, who had a game taken from them by some who choose cheating as an acceptable way to win.


I think you are the only one that would view that as perfect. Perfect is a state championship. They won nothing. Not a county, not a LIC and not a state. They made it to the playoffs and got bounced by a better team.

And if you don't think one player was better than the rest (substantially better!), then you are perfectly delusional. Not everything shows up on a stat sheet. When she's gone next year you'll see just how important she is. Other girls scored because defenses were focused on her and her alone. No one knows any one else on that team. Not a single name. Role players at best, and it was plain to see by everyone that has watched any of those games.


OMG. Enough already. Yes she's pretty good all around but I would rather have a kid that makes her teamates better... like the kid out east who has as many assists as goals playing the same damn teams. Get over yourself and her. Thank you.
