This was an observation not an indictment - paranoia made someone jump to a conclusion - who says there is southlake parent even in the mix or even a parent? tsk tsk... paranoia!

Like I said before, the original post is benign with no supporting facts or information to help us discuss a topic without wondering what the heck this person was TRYING to post.  In the end, if the argument is for 9v9 vs. 11v11 or something of that sort, just say that - don't pipe up with something so convoluted that it confuses the issue at hand.  "So and so got pummelled by so and so" is NOT a proper way to invite discussion around a topic such as "whether small sided vs. 11v11 is more effective for player development".  There is a way to reach your audience for effective discussion and a way to get ridiculed for not being able to appropriately deliver your message.  This falls into the latter.

Yeah...exactly what he said...

He must have been the NFL forum and accidently brought his emotions to this one. No matter how rowdy things get on this board, I haven't come across such blatant boastfulness in reference to a victory. That attitude is what starts a disagreement on the sidelines amongst parents...

I think I'll try out that theory this weekend.  Shortly after halftime, I'll turn my head to the opposing sideline and shout, "You guys are getting SPANKED.  You should be playing small sided games."

If my memory serves me correctly, your comment will be followed by a rhetorical "are you serious?...really?" from a mom (they are always the first to respond) followed by a rowdier response from the aggressive dad who is willing to take it to the parking lot and then after he is calmed, expect a conscious spoken word from the older less confrontational dad...something along the lines of "our girls are trying their hardest, is that anyway to talk about 9yr old girls playing soccer?"
