Sal with a "serious" question again, oh joy. Apparently Sal you have not picked up a dictionary or used the Google machine since your last "serious" question to understand the definition of basic words in the English language such as "cheater" (you might also want to look up the word "proximity" as well). That is OK as you likely are a kid or have the brain capacity of a child so I understand and will let this pass.

You say you are from LI you so you actually have no idea the actual ages of the kids on a team but suffice it to say that Madlax is nowhere near 90% "holdback". Go through all the bizarre logic you want to to come up with that fake news 90% but it is wrong. I do understand if the fragile egos of LI parents need to believe that so whatever makes you sleep better at night, just keep doing it.

As to your final question I think you may know the answer to that already and it is a question that actually destroys your whole "cheater" theme. It is no secret that there are kids on these teams that do not meet the age requirements for on age tournaments/games so they don't play in them, hence they are not cheaters. Teams from MD play in a grade based system and play in grade based tournaments. Please have a moderately intelligent friend explain this to you since you do not seem to get it. In addition MD teams do not play "down" all of their games. By your own logic all of the teams are "cheater holdbacks". These teams are generally playing most of their games against each other so they are not playing "down". As the parent of an on age elite player I think a grade system at the youth level is not ideal but I also know the vast majority of "off age" kids are summer birthdays so the age difference is way smaller than it is made out to be and generally it is nice for kids to play with kids in their grade/class so I don't lose any sleep over it.

Finally the same serious question from before Sal. Why do LI people care so much about MD lacrosse? You did not answer this question the first time. Personally I think it is a bit sad that a person from LI would post on a MD board but if it makes you happy stay with it.

Best of luck at the WSYL!

Yo Buff, wuz up?

Quick question. Why is it that after years of MD parents denying the existence of holdbacks, when they are finally outed, all of their kids mysteriously have “summer birthdays”? How does every holdback in MD have a “summer birthday”? While you are pondering your spin on this, you should know that all 2005 born players on LI are considered holdbacks. So having a “summer birthday” does not mean that your cheater holdback kid is any less a cheater. He’s just a regular, everyday, run of the mill holdback cheater. So your “summer birthday” spin really isn’t buying you any good will at all. Just thought you would want to know, so you can start thinking about your next really lame excuse for your lies, deception and Moral-less culture, you cheating vermin.

Cheat-on Bro!

Sal -

Good to hear from you and your friend who posted right after you. Was a little busy walking the fairways at Chevy and Congo (it's what keeps me "Buff" as you called me) so haven't had a ton of time to continue our conversation. I find it amusing you still have yet to answer the question I have posed multiple times but since you continue to use english language words incorrectly ("cheater" for example) I assume you struggle with forming a coherent response. FYI, your 100% holdback, all kids 2/3 years older spin is not buying you any good will at all either. Just so you know us MD folk do not care at all about LI lacrosse or what you think of us.

"But Biff, if you don't care why do you respond?" Excellent question Sal. I respond because nothing amuses me more than triggering people whose entire existence seems to revolve around youth lacrosse and if I can get a chuckle or two out of my follow MD people then my job is done. To your little friend who posted right after you. Do you honestly believe that anyone outside of those associated with the teams involved and the people of LI are interrupting their July 4th celebration to watch the WSYL? If you do I have a sweet real estate deal to pitch you.

Finally Sal, since you ended your last post in such a mean way, my final words to you are: "You dirt-eating piece of slime! You person-sucking pig! You son of a motherless goat!"

Once again best of luck to the kids attending the WSYL. I have no doubt it will be a great experience for them. Sal and your little friend, perhaps you should just sit back and enjoy it as opposed to worrying so much about MD lacrosse.

To all the actual MD people, good luck in the HoCo playoffs!

Your friend,
Biff (or "Buff" as Sal likes to call me, hope it catches on)
