[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are two issues here.

1. Scoring goals (yes, it's ok!  we need them for the goal differential).  For those who don't understand why, use google.

2.  Being total assholes about scoring goals after we were up 9-0 or so.  ([b]for those that don't understand sportsmanship, please see my daughters 2nd grade soccer team[/b], they will explain it to you).[/quote]

This is the problem with America.  Raising kids that everyone is a winner and losing is bad. Or if you lose, it can't be by too much, that is just rude.  No, it isn't.  You don't want to lose, work harder. You want to beat the team/person/opponent, work harder. You don't want them scoring so much, play some damn Def and work harder.

Sports and attitude towards sports is a reflection of how hard you work in life. It's not how many times you get knocked down, it is how many times you get back up.

People lose, there is always someone better in something. The kid won't get every job, get every love interest, college desired...kids need to learn to lose.  Then PICK YOURSELF UP and WORK HARDER!!!!![/quote]

What does that have to do with doing leg farts after the 9th goal was scored?[/quote]
