Or their wife's college coaching career. |
You don’t think and women’s soccer players deserve full rides? Wow, the misogyny lives on in DCurban moms. You are a terrible human being. |
I know how this works, you goddamn effing moron. God, the stupidity with you. The title says "RECEIVES FULL RIDE." Verbal commitment? The player still has to apply. Verbal commitments aren't worth spit. |

This is all so childish. Why can't we all just be happy for this kid. My guess is that she has put in a ton of time and hard work. This NON-FCV parent is happy for you girl!
I also think it is okay to share these big accomplishments on DCUM. I mean, isn't this the type of thing we would all want for our kids?? Go Northern VA! Great school, great player. |
OK Loudoun dad. Calm down. Every single person with a college bound soccer kid knows this. They still received a full ride to UVA no matter what dirt you want to throw. It is what it is. And folks dont accept offers - even verbal - if they dont think they can get in. You have not been thru this - obviously. It's all part of the Offer discussion. All of if. |
Go share your excitement for all the committed kids |
It’s a great accomplishment, but I don’t know why we’re supposed to be happier for her than for any of the other kids all over the country who will commit to UVA and other top schools. Am I missing something that makes her story special? |
No one suggested you should be happier for this kid than others who will commit to UVA and other top schools. Where are you getting that? We should be just as happy for all of them. PS just because you say you happy for someone, it doesn't mean your are NOT happy for the others. ie saying black lives matter doesn't mean other lives don't matter. saying I like Florida beaches doesn't mean I don't like Hawaii beaches. I can't believe this stuff needs to be said outside of 4 year olds |
Cool, I look forward to you starting threads to celebrate all of the soccer commits this year. |
Ok mr literal. Just because one says all should be celebrated doesn’t mean they have to literally create a post for every one. How do 4 year olds know how to get on this website? |
OP felt this player should be singled out above all others for some reason. I’m just trying to understand what that reason is. |

Landini Brothers in Old Town has great Italian food.
You’re welcome |
| I get celebrating the kid verbally committing to UVA. That’s great and everyone is happy for her. But the thread title doesn’t celebrate her. It’s a marketing thread for FCV. So don’t get all high and mighty when people express their opinions of FCV. |
| committing and receiving a full athletic scholarship are two different worlds. As soon as my U9 is ready to choose an ECNL team we announce our commitment. Still paying at least 50% of the cost but wow most kids dont get to play ECNL. Blaaaahhhh uuuuuhhhhh excuse while I puke.. Oh hey my neighbors have a boy and girl twins. They each received a full scholarship to play basketball at D-1 schools. No money out of their pockets either. Thats something to boast and celebrate about. |
| Is it because this player couldn’t get into VMI? |
