The most exercise this fat little shit will get all week How do you know how much exercise that kid gets? I don't. But judging from the fact he has a double chin, fat forearms, and seems to be out of breath at the end of playing a cell phone game app in a fast food restaurant (In-n-Out), I'm guessi...

I hate parents that park their fucking chairs two feet from the field. God damn does it piss me off. Practices u12 has 2 outdoor(1.5 hr each) and 1 futsal each week. Usually a game/scrimmage every few weeks. u9 has 2 outdoor(1 hr each) and 1 futsal each week. 2 tournaments a season. There is also a ...

I would love to see US Soccer take that 100 million they have and use it to build futsal courts in urban areas. For rural areas maybe a grant program for clubs to add futsal courts or indoor practice spaces. Somewhere that kids can go and have pickup games in the neighborhood would be awesome. We tr...

Have the parent stay home for the game. If they show up kick the family from the club. The rest of your families shouldn't have to deal with that parent on their sideline. If it was that bad that another family complained I doubt that it was the only thing they did at the game.

I've had several comments from people trying to make soccer small talk because they know I'm interested in. Typically the conversation goes... "The men's team should just do what the women are doing" How do I explain that it's a completely different situation without sounding sexist? I usu...

You don't fucking quit. You're a G-D American soccer player. You don't quit. Nice rant. I agree with all your points, Don't get me started on the "softness" issue. I live in a college town in the middle of coal/steel country. We haven't even talked about the problems in the under u12 deve...

Everyone gets to share some blame. They just played a high stakes, fast paced game 3 days prior. TnT is in the rainy season so 1) it's humid as fuck down there and b) you know the field is going to be soggy -- tough to run on on, tough to play a finesse game. Arena should know these things. And he ...

The complaints that there are too many sports leagues isn't valid. Our current professional league and development structure make their money off delivering a shitty pay to play product.

Aren't most of the MLS clubs (outside of DC United) academies free? I get the pay to play, but most of the good ones I have seen are Pay to Play, but if you can't afford it, we will work with you. There simply aren't enough of them. How many kids are there in the MLS academies? US Soccer has the de...

The wife is running the Rock and Roll marathon on November 11th. The staging area is the Las Vegas Village and they run the entire race up and down the strip during the evening.

Why do I scroll down after news stories and read the comments? Does anyone know of a browser extension that auto blocks all comments following a news story?

Jourdan was the football beat writer up here last year. She's really good at her job and never injects herself into the story. She doesn't deserve to be on the receiving end of Cam's comments and I hope other writers continue to defend her so that she doesn't need to.

Good luck flaco. Parents suck. Our board only allows members with an actual responsibility for the club. Marketing, development, secretary, coaching director, treasurer, etc...

PSU needs someone other than Barkley to make some plays. I don't see any of the Big Ten teams dominating this year. It could end up being a 2 loss big ten champ again.

I don't see how that will avoid pissing off the yinzers though - I can't wait to see the reaction on our message board, with all the outraged offended snowflakes who swear they are done with the NFL but won't fuckin' log off.

I think your right about the MD fans. The same may be true for Rutgers. I was at an FSU/MD game 15 years or so ago and they didn't seem to really care about the game at all. I do think some of this gets escalated because one team sees it as a rivalry game and the other team does not. The MD basketba...

I went to the PSU game a few years ago in Alabama. Nicest group of people I've ever seen. I had trouble buying my own drink when we went out at night.

For those with BTN... The PSU/UNC Women's team play tonight at 7pm. The younger boy's team(u9) is walking out with the players for the anthem and then scrimmaging each other at halftime. They may even make it on the TV broadcast.

Our nearly 15 year old deaf Beagle has a torn ACL. She has been having nerve issues on her back legs for a few months and as a result has put on some weight due to the difficulty in getting exercise.

I didn't say I was okay with it. I said that although it's likely criminal, it's not treason -- at least not how treason had been consistently defined. Actions can be illegal, violate campaign laws, or even constitute espionage, without being treason. Treason has a very specific meaning legally -- ...

Highly corrupt, probably criminal, but not treason. As I noted a few days ago, legal scholars who have looked at this have concluded that treason laws have been limited to aid given to countries we're fighting in an active shooting war.
