Please stop all of this - it is not worthy of the great game played. This degrades the entire experience. Both teams - ALL PLAYERS - played their collective hearts out -
Also, both goalies are great kid's, best of luck to them.
Excellent - we're back to making fun of dads' businesses and helping with helmets to express our hatred of 91. Here is some light to shed on 91 Xtreme player selections - they played nine games this Fall and won all nine, beating Dukes, Express and TLI along with six others. They don't duck anyone and it is a great group of boys who play hard and as a team. The boys you are criticizing as political picks each contributed in meaningful ways in games this Fall. Hate the coaches and directors all you want, but it's hard to criticize the team they put on the field this Fall - Xtreme beat everyone. It just sheds a light on all the BS in team selection. That the goalie from team Long Island was put on 91 C teamm white after this years tryout was a joke. Come on, from the A team to the C team. Those who saw him play on Saturday know he's not a C team goalie. His play speaks for itself. He deserved better from 91. It just pays to know people. No one is knocking the kids just pointing out how good a player is screwed because of politics. Hey lets see if he gets the phone call from SL to come back after how well he played yesterday.
please stop the implications and tell us what you trying to say, if you say it pays to know someone, well why didn't they know him if he played for them last year? did they forget him? and when you say politics are you saying that not only is the new goalie politically connected but so are the two goalies that made the "b" team ahead of this boy? was it a parent cut? what were the politics? if our gonna bring the heat, bring it
91 is about who you know or who your friends with or who's lawn you mow or what helmets you buy for the team. Teams were chosen before tryouts. Plain and simple. Come on you know the truth. It was basically decided before tryouts who were moving up from the B team and recruited from other teams to play on Extreme. Some are OK with their kid riding the pine. They just want to say they are on Extreme. Your kid will get better that way. This goalie is one example of the BS. That shows it so no need to bring it. Politics or friends or whatever. I just say it like I see it. Very happy for the goalie who is now on team long island. Great kid great family.
