I highly doubt that if the kids got together as a team and asked for a sit down with CM that they would have been "punished" by being benched, etc. If that would have happened, then I agree, parental intervention would be called for. Doesn't matter now though because it's done. CM will have no problem fielding a great team bc there are enough kids who ride the bench on great teams who may see this as an oppo for a starting position. The irony would be if CM gets a new coach, fields a great team, and ends up beating all the top teams in the DMV, LI, Jersey, etc. Looking forward to seeing how this all plays out, and hoping that going forward the ML parents let their kids make their own decisions and trying speaking up/fixing things for themselves.
