Sept 20th D1-D3

straight up wrote:Dallas texans red were given a gift, they were allowed into lake highlands without ever playing a game in qualifying.  They dont have the ability to play against the majority of the teams without throwing cheap shots. They grab, kick, bite and punch. There was no intimidation, just straight up out played. Im sure some of the girls on dtr are good girls but several are not. The fever player was dragged to the ground with both hands around her waist, she has claw and bite marks on her hip. Yes there was frustration towards the ref for not controlling the game, but not towards any of the players. The smaller players are obviously frustrated with the lack of speed and ability, so they use whatever poor tactics they can. This is not the first problem a team has had with dtr. This is another example of lake highlands giving a spot to a team which is not deserving. Dallas texans red is an embarrassment to the Texans organization.

The idea that the parents sit down and write a check to the Dallas Texans to buy their spot in D3 is so rediculous and just stupid! Most of these kids were on the team and staying on the team irregardless of where they played. You can think what you want about the rule or what the club itself did with the rule but don't accuse DTR parents of buying their way into a D3 spot. What, would you have done, sat Down and had a serious talk with coach and club about how unfair it is for our team to have it and let's just give it to a "more deserving team". Ha I bet! No, you would have said thank you, yes, for this opportunity to showcase our team and really show what we can do! Honestly, it looks like they are doing just fine. 
I did not see the game but we have played DT red in past and they can be physical but no more than any of the D2 or D1 teams in LH now. (Maybe they are preparing for their next move up or even gift) However, didn't a DTR girl break her arm last time these two gladiator teams came together? I think it may Be all about What sideline you are standing on. I am on neither, I know and love both coaches and several players on each team.

****FYI, they do bite though, not the players but the parents, wear your thickest scarf around your neck the next time you see a DT red parent!)

Wired wrote:So you are correct. They weren't given a gift, they bought it. They did nothing to earn it but right a check to the Dallas texans. Im sure all the teams that had to fight it out in hot summer qualifying appreciate that. Especially the couple that just missed getting in.

Wired wrote:The top 3 D1, are just that, no one can touch them. They may tie or lose every once in a while but thats soccer. Ive been impressed with Sting Brown, they had a lot of changes and are playing good. Dt White is picking up the pace and getting use to the speed, still a hard year. Fever is hanging in, I dont care for that style of play but its working. Andromeda is a good all around team.

D2 solar and dynasty are killing it.

D3 Holder should win the year with Feet right behind. Feet plays much prettier, but Holder is big and strong.

Wired wrote:My team did win. Thank you!!! I could care less about the game, but how they got in. The only info I got was from the one DTR parent I know. Shes the one that told me the dtr player gave the fwfc player a concussion. So dont start trying to blame others. I'll tell you if a player comes at my dd and bites her she has my permission to get a red card.

Wired wrote:Again! I could care less about the game, I know what a parent from your team told me and if you dont like it tough. I don't like the fact a club can give a team a spot in lake highlands without doing anything for it. Thats my opinion and many others.

Wired wrote:I shouldn't have brought DT red into this discussion. They are not the only ones who benefited from the rule. Its a problem with the league. I disagree with it because of the problems it creates. Its undo pressure put on the girls. Which in turn causes people to do thing's they shouldn't. I would agree with soccer mom, play hard, play fair no matter who wins.

Wired wrote:Lady im sure no matter how hard your kids work it will never be good enough. You'll ask for 110% but will want 130%. When given the spot you dont respect it. Thats why you should earn your way not sign for it.
