"Conference champs, rings every year, top 3 academic school, sunny Cali. LOL haters! Pretty sure what you say can also be said for Duke, Virginia and ND. Stanford on par with them. None of them winning the natty, but have lots to offer outside lax. Everyone wants to be a critic!"
Sorry but not on par with any of those teams when speaking about womens lacrosse.
Why not? What have Notre Dame and Duke or even Virginia done in the past 5 or 6 years?
These are the facts Stanford is something like 1-7 when playing ACC teams over the last 5-6 years. They have gone 0-4 against UVA being outscored 61-38 ( Did the math in my head so may be wrong but close) , Saying they are on par with teams that when they play against them have a winning percentage of 14 % seems like a bit of a stetch.
Boston College is 2 - 14 vs Maryland and 6 - 21 vs North Carolina...
Syracuse is 2 - 23 vs Maryland and 6 - 11 vs North Carolina...
Syracuse and Boston College are not on par with the top programs...

Your pathetic attempt to go back to wooden sticks is as transparent as to who you are . Again it was in response to the poster specifically stating the past 5-6 years . If you want to go back that far than one of those teams you put Stanford on the same level as has won as many national championships as UNC and BC . So strange how you skipped the past 5-6 year comment in your other Stanford buddies post .
What is strange and pathetic is your obsession with Stanford and your foolish attempts to bash them. We all know why you do it, it would be funny if it were not so sad.
Maybe this will help ease the pain: the players who are fortunate enough to receive and accept an offer from a school like Stanford prioritize academics above lacrosse. Obviously the parents have different priorities than you as well. I'm sure the majority of players at Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Penn, Northwestern, Duke, Vanderbilt, Hopkins, Brown, Dartmouth etc... could have all elected to attend a different school... Maybe they did not receive an offer from Maryland but I am pretty sure that they're okay with that.
Your comments and repeated attempts to knock Stanford idiotic at best.
Have not been bashing Stanford at all other than to say their top 10 ranking in a preseason poll was in my opinion too high . Then you and your Stanford friends got your panties in a bunch and make statements with no facts to back them up. " Please give it a rest, as 99.9% of kids who had the top grades and athletics to play at Stanford would jump at the chance. " Typical Stanford dad post, there are plenty of players who could have gone to Stanford but elected not to , who knows maybe there are actual players who enjoy their families enough that they prefer to stay closer to home. Your kids decision makes sense .
