US Lacrosse Community Forum Forums PENNSYLVANIA LACROSSE PENNSYLVANIA FORUM Boys 2023

Don't care about my opinion? Why do you feel the need to provide a rebuttal? Maybe what you say is true and nobody cares. That's just a sign of our times. The "only my opinion counts" mentality that you are likely teaching your kid is making this world a much better place? I happen to know parents that went to Denver in the past. My opinion is not based on assumptions. By the way, my son could make any team he tries out for. Any of his past and current coaches would tell you that. In the end, your opinion is no more valid than my own. But, I've heard you and I'm sure you believe what you're saying and you want the best for your kid. Too bad you've dismissed an alternative opinion, but like I said, this is the world we live in.

I am not dismissing your opinion, I just don't feel like reading another doom and gloom - don't go to Denver you will all lose statement - to each his own...and great for your son, I am sure that he is a terrific lacrosse player and a great kid..enjoy watching him play.

By the way, my son could make any team he tries out for. Any of his past and current coaches would tell you that.


Please provide names of teams and past/ present coaches for reference and confirmation as to the statement above.... Seriously, you are an stunad and need to stop living vicariously through your son and you need to get a life.

most the top kids are playing big5 the ones that aren't its because their too old

why does this thread get to post anonymously ? is it because its boys?

Rising Sons playing NXT Spring League against the B teams?

It looks like an additional bracket that was added for a few late comers, there doesn't seem to be any playoff rounds for the bracket, just AA and A playoffs

pretty pathetic of NXT to let them play in the B division

Likewise Mesa

You guys are so misinformed...

Mesa is a AA team, Sons look like a low A team.

Did not realize that they were playing the A bracket teams, pathetic money grab. Since the AA bracket was full, Sons and Mesa should have just scheduled a few play days instead of beating up on B teams, it does nothing for development and makes them look ridiculous. At least they are not included in the playoffs.

Why is the Philly site able to post Anonymously.... The Maryland and LI site is dead because the lock down (registration required)...

Please re-open the MD site, as its the middle of the Lax season and we have no where to discuss what is happening. Do the shutdown in August (at the start of the new Lax year)

Or just register...

Uhhh.... WCS aren't going to the WSYL.

Mesa and Sons are not in the league. They were asked to fill in. And so you can sleep at night, they both have been scheduling games outside of "the league". You are ridiculous

It was not meant to be critical of Mesa and Sons, I just wonder why they would want to waste time playing, and paying for, non-competitive games, really more of an issue with NXT

If what you're saying is truthful and factual then you should register. Maybe you shouldn't talk negatively about underage children and make things up and you too could have an anonymous forum. As we all should know by now anonymous isn't really anonymous. You can find out who anyone is especially is they are bullying a minor child.

Just give me your email address and I'll be happy to provide all the proof you seem to need. Won't provide your email? Don't ask someone to step out of anonymity while you wrap it around yourself like a security blanket and have delusions of superiority. Hypocrite. And, I'll be happy to show you why I don't need to live vicariously to enjoy my life. And, since you're on this thread, you've probably seen my kid play and you already know how good he is. You just don't know his name.

You definitely lost some credibility on this forum with your prior post...not really helping the cause with this one

You forgot to include your email address.

Bottom line, once you come on this forum and start bragging about your kid, it's time to take a step back, take a deep breath and regain some perspective. Best of luck to your son this season.

The point wasn't to brag about a kid who remains anonymous. Maybe you could work on your reading comprehension skills? Regain perspective? The perspective of the sheeple you associate with? Not everyone on this thread shares your perspective even though your inflated ego doesn't allow for that possibility. You have no problem "sharing" your perspective, but when someone expresses a different one you treat them as if they are being self righteous. Look in the mirror, lemming.

Since we seem to be beating a dead horse on this forum, how about a new topic - thoughts on NXT games so far this season, good match-up between Freedom and BL last Sunday

I agree! Both teams were tough-Freedom defense big boys

Phillylax.com
Bates coaching BL 23 Academy team...

Before the game started, I thought that it would go the other way, impressive win for BL (and not a BL parent).

Why would you have thought that?

NXT championship will be a good one to watch....Looks like BRO LOVE and FREEDOM

I

I thought that the individual playmakers on Freedom would make the difference, but in watching BL play, their overall balance is really impressive - probably a lot to do with having a team that plays together regularly as opposed to the Freedom model (and that is not a knock on the Freedom team, just stating the obvious).

Completely true, your post are to the point of being pathetic and embarrassing for your son, hopefully he is as good as you think he is. As stated above step back take a break and realize that life is not all 13 year old lacrosse. There is a big world outside open your eyes and enjoy it. BTW still have no idea who your son is and really don't care....

Not sure how long Freedom model will last, bringing in kids to play one game that have never practiced or played with the team just to try and win one youth lacrosse game, parents on sideline none too happy.

We have reached a new low... giving $ to kids on other teams for goals scored against rival teams.

I believe their coach is a Dukes National coach or was one so i'm sure he has a rolodex of numbers.

BL parents on sideline not happy with playing time either.

He was a Duke's Nationals coach. Having kids not on his Freedom team drive from as far as North Carolina to help him out is quite a testament to the relationship he has developed with some of the Duke's players. Must stink to be one of the kids who gets benched for a guest player, though.

Perhaps, but it seems like lot of people have been turned off by the DN program, so not sure how Freedom will be any different. Maybe it is a means to reconstitute the DN model under another name.

That brings up an interesting question...When is a guest player no longer a guest player? How long does a kid have to play with a club to be part of the club? If you pick up a new player does he remain a guest player until the next year? What if he takes a year off and comes back? What if he also plays for HHH or two clubs at the same time?

How about when he starts paying...

As stated in a previous post: "The point wasn't to brag about a kid who remains anonymous. Maybe you could work on your reading comprehension skills? Regain perspective? The perspective of the sheeple you associate with? Not everyone on this thread shares your perspective even though your inflated ego doesn't allow for that possibility. You have no problem "sharing" your perspective, but when someone expresses a different one you treat them as if they are being self righteous. Look in the mirror, lemming."

Why would I care about whether you, an anonymous follower, know who my son is or not? Does that really make sense to you? Think about it for just one second. OK, did you come to the conclusion that there is nothing I could care less about? No? You think a little too much of yourself. You make me laugh! Simpleton.
