[quote=Anonymous]Since there is quite a bit of sensitivity here about “throwing shade” and any negative comments concerning the Escola, I think it would behoove the poster (or posters) here who are sensitive to it, and others who are trying to figure out the dysfunction of this board, to understand what may be happening.

We notice that the same type of poster, if not the same poster, who posts all of the glorious praise of this program, in this thread, also starts numerous attack threads with the “why US Soccer and any program in the US sucks” theme.   By the way, it’s obvious--same opinions, same sentence construction, even the wording is the same.  They even spin off individual posts within the attack threads to start new attack threads.  They carefully craft numerous arguments to bolster whatever the specific opinion might be, for example US women’s soccer is in the tank (oh, please), then at some point in these attack threads a post is made to point out that, hey, the Escola isn’t like that at all, it’s SO much better.

In addition, anyone who has any opinion of the Escola that could be construed as slightly negative, including several posters in this and previous Escola threads who have said they have had DCs in the program, is rudely dismissed.  Even posters who simply ask related questions or make comments on the dialogue are drawn through the mud.

The opinion of former/current Escola customers that don’t agree with yours are just as valid.  Rather than starting wars over which training methods are “better” or making the absurd claim that, just because the programs you have had experience with haven’t been up to your standard/benefitted your DC, all programs in the US are awful, maybe you (whether you are a single individual or small group, whatever) could keep to posting just your positive opinions about the Escola in this thread.  And if a thread comes up about a specific program that you actually had experience with, comment on the good and bad of that program.  And to repeat, it’s absolutely absurd to think that you have deep knowledge of every program in the area and can definitively say that the Escola is better than all.

The main point is simple, no more flamethrower posts about the various local DA and ECNL programs, full of inaccurate/incomplete or out of context information, with constant begging the question of which exact group you were with (it’s obvious you weren’t to people who are with those groups).  Fire begets fire on these anonymous boards, and if you don’t like “shade” thrown at you, don’t throw it.  I’ll wager that if you keep to this thread with your Escola love and stop your battery of attacks on US soccer, things might get friendlier across the board.
