Every top team (Taz, 91MD, Bethesda) has at least one defender that is the same size as Madlax's middie. If the Madlax middie played D, nobody would say a word. When he dominates in the offensive zone, everyone starts hating on him claiming he has an unfair size advantage. If you ever get the opportunity to hang out with Myles Jones, he will tell you similar stories. When Myles (like Paul Rabil) switched from basketball to lacrosse, his coaches gave him a long pole and told him he couldn't play offense. For the sake of the game, I am glad he proved them wrong. When youth coaches take all the little kids and give them short sticks, and give all the big kids long poles. They are robbing the game of some of the best offensive players.
Amen to that brother. I am tired of all the puny little attack and their punk a$$ prima donna selfish dads that scream when anyone comes near their precious Johnny. WHAAAA he's bigger than my kid. He must be a hold back and a cheater. Treat my kid differently just because he's smaller. He should get to play attack because he can't play anywhere else on the field.
Hilarious. So true. Show me the smallest attack, and I will show you the most toxic (and shortest) dad for any team. When the dad is 5 8, why is he surprised when all the other kids on the field are bigger than his kid.
Definitely true for Taz. Very sad.
Why do you think most current coaches became coaches? To give their kids a chance to play, WO them most wouldn't even make an A roster. That goes for almost every club out there
