[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are people wanting MU to fail? Why? What is wrong with grownups saying horrible things about kids. I am also disgusted at the bad things that are said about coaches.[/quote]

Why people are all over MU:

1. Dilution. When you open a consumer business, it's location, location, location. These guys plunked their operation right in the middle of 3 big clubs, which has affected them all by diluting the player pool.
2. Poor performance. Nobody wants to align themselves with a loser. It's just human nature.
3. Broken promises. WS is one and done due to a change in ownership. MU doesn't quite have the cachet of Washington Spirit Academy. Massive rosters, poor roster planning, playups, etc have damaged the reputation after only one year in operation.
4. Arrogance. All clubs have arrogant parents posting on DCUM. But when the team has the above identity, it opens them up for ridicule.[/quote]

1. Yes. MU has diluted the player pool. They have very good players across age groups that would and have helped other teams. I understand why this makes you mad.

2. Don't worry about the poor performance. Parents at the club see improvement and we are happy with the coaches and progress. We see the strong development, both with current and past players.

3. Did the broken promises of the past hurt you somehow? This is a new team. We joined this year and were never part of WS.

4. Arrogance? I have not heard a single post from an MU parent claiming anything. Your perspective is clouded. Given 1, 2, and 3 above I better understand why you have it out for MU.

The original post was written from the perspective of an entire group of people, not just one. Different people have different reasons for jumping on MU.
With regard to the arrogance comment, you should probably go back and read up a bit if you are interested. It's my observation that some MU (was WS) posters are/were arrogant. Perception is reality in this case. You asked why people don't like MU. This is one reason.[/quote]
