Because anonymous posters can't get punched in the face!!

No, the moron is the guy who drops an insult on an anonymous web site. Maybe moron is too strong of a word, coward comes to mind. I never threatened to "punch you in the face" I implied that people are nasty and make nasty comments on here because it is anonymous. That the same person would never say the same in public for fear of getting punched. So no I won't punch you in the face for calling me a moron, but I will call you a chickensh*t for being a keyboard tough guy! Anonymously of course!

They (Express & Channey) certainly burnt the bridge to BOTC....

Sure, but really, what top club hasn't?

On the other hand, at least the Express have stayed off the 'asterisk list', so that counts for something, right?

RECON is very reputable. Maybe Channy should emulate quality instead of catholic school greed!!

How is that 2023 Recon team, heard they put together a very good B+ team, anyone have any input on that team?

Can someone explain the whole asterisk thing?

When a club does something that BOTC determines to be wrong (ie, cancelling a tournament and not refunding money....or taking advantage of teams, etc), they will not allow that club to be referenced by name on its forum. Anytime that club is mentioned in a post, the moderators will adjust the type to be [***].

Personally, why would you want to give publicity to a club that isn't going to do right by its players or potential players.

However, since there are several that have landed here the reader is left to try and decipher creative spellings to know what club is being talked about. Without creative spelling, you have no way of telling if the poster is writing about [***], [***] or even [***]

new to this- so what has Channey done so wrong?

Yes he told the truth to us a couple of years ago. My kid top recruit D1,did I tell you the kids he pick over my kid their parents make a lot more money then me. Don't be fooled he goes money over talent a lot. That's why they are not a power house anymore.

What team did your kid play for if not on the A team and got recruited to top D1?
Just curious because my son has sick stick skills but is short and gets overlooked because of size.

Dont be fooled...MC also has kids playing for free if they are really really good and it fits his team. Ask the 2022's they have a full scholarship kid

Full ride? Wow! Kid must walk on water. Wonder how the other full paying parents feel about that...

MC is a liar and a cheat .He represents everything that is crooked and broken in youth lacrosse. He has spent years bsing hundreds of kids.There is no lower station to exist than the one where an adult cheats kids on a daily basis.He should be tarred,feathered and run out of town on a rail

I am sick and tired of all of the "daddy's big dream lax player didn't pan out" sob stories. Take your ego out of the equation and see your kid for what he is. If he was good enough, he'd be on an A team and be in a great position to gain valuable high level experience and ultimately exposure to colleges and maybe gain access to a good school and maybe even play college lax. but yours didn't (and won't with your attitude). he is just not good enough.

MC is a good judge of talent and will slot your kid where he belongs in his organization. If you think that is enough for your kid, then fine. but don't come here disparaging the man because your kid just isn't that good. Most of the players on his A teams invest in much time with private coaches and practice every day all year. That is what it takes for many to be an A player.

Get off of the guys back and take your kid elsewhere. pay for extra training. get out there with your kid and practice. success in this sport is definitely there for those who want it bad enough and will do what it takes. Your bitching and whining is not making your kid any better.

try harder in the next year or try another sport.

Congratulations your Son hasmade the roster of the Terps 2023. please send $750 to secure his spot.Smash cut to 4 months later and you are told at 8:45pm
the night before the first Tourni that you are in fact on the Terps ll (cute)
and wont be playing with the team you payed to be on. That is the Express way in a nutshell. That has nothing to do with "Daddy's big dream" but the flawed character of an Adult who should be taken to task for his dishonesty.
One example ,there are countless others.

My kid played on an Express team last year for free. He didn't tryout we got called so it does happen. That said it was a miserable experience for my kid so even for free we didn't go back this year. I would rather pay and have him enjoy it then play for MC. The guy is trulying the worst!
