[quote=Anonymous][quote=CageSage][quote=Anonymous]Hard to believe a player as dominant as Shannon only a few months ago playing in NCAA final not getting selected for 2013 World Team??
Exactly. Think about the reason.
Is she too dominant? That's kinda like too much money isn't it? There is no reason she shouldn't be on that roster other than some are threatened by her. What do you think could be the reason?
If your logic is trying to say she is not good enough to play on the team, that is laughable. She is the all time scoring leader at the most dominant D1 schools and highly awarded and decorated athletes from both conference and NCAA. Many of the catfighting, club jealous parents you find on these threads and the opionions and comments they make are often just plain silly. Opinions of her as a player from respectful coaches, refs and other D1 credible followers generally put her in the discussion as one of the best players to ever step foot on the feild. You can dislike her because she is the director of a rival club, you can dislike from a jealous competitive standpoint, but to try to argue her playing ability is a joke.
I dont think anyone is disagreeing with her talent but she certainly didnt look to be in the same shape that she had been at the conclusion of the NCAA tournament. The burdens of coaching a D1 program and running a successful club program most definitively contributed to that fact. This is the national team we are talking about and past performance doesnt cut it when there are 24 other women that want it just as badly.
