Another whining 3 Village victim of the "capitalistic club lacrosse machine". Why dont you ask the unelected all- powerful board why they refused to discuss alternative solutions with the parents instead of enforcing their scorched earth policy from behind the curtain (unless the boys in question were on a team they personally had interest in - until they got busted!)? Stop with this "unchosen few" cr@p - its getting old. There are so many options and places for boys to play so stop whining that you weren't "personally invited" to tryouts. You stayed for your own reasons and that is fine - dont judge others. I have an intimate knowledge of that organization - you are far from being on the moral high-ground. Just watch what you say; there are an awful lot of 3V parents who had the biggest mouths and strongest opinions in the Park Bench who are now writing checks to these so-called evil programs
