[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Stoddert uses the entire field with multiple games...The entire field.

OK but that is not what the opposing neighbors have been claiming - they have been claiming that the field has been used for a single game at a time and that this particular field is unique in that manner.

The truth is that like most Stoddert fields it is being used by younger players for multiple games at a time which suggests that in all likliehood there would be no change in the utility of the park to Stoddert if the layout of the field needed to be tweaked.

Which is, as has been repeatedly pointed out, a moot point if the pool is simply located where the current tennis courts are.  Which is a point the neighbors won't concede because their only chance to broaden this fight beyond the immediate neighbors is to make this into a soccer vs pool fight which is intellectually dishonest but at least in that manner the neighbors are consistent.[/quote]

You can pretend it’s just the Hearst Park neighbors but there was also a very strong argument against the pool, in the NW Current recently, written by one of the “founding families” of Washington DC youth soccer.[/quote]
