Pathetic yes but for those of us who aren't trying to live through our kids and aren't lunatics it's VERY entertaining!


I agree its entertaining. My son is on a club team but he is quite a bit younger so I dont know anyone on the teams mentioned. I am on this post b/c its the OBLL and my son plays in the league. Something that strikes me as interesting is the comment that the team is in a slump. I have never heard or read of one of these top youth lax teams being in a slump. Seems reasonable right, any team can be in a slump or perhaps other teams just surpass teams in talent or through practice. It would seem that whoever wins the summer tournaments are the dominant teams, period. Slump, no slump, missing kids, too many kids, bad coaches, not enough practices, club charges too much, whatever. It all should get determined at the local summer tournaments. until then the trash talking is entertaining.
