[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] (though usually the rant is not so well-written or so broadly disseminated). [/quote] Heh. As a complete outsider, that's the best/saddest thing I've read since the "rant" was posted. I re-read it. It seems like the PP is actually telling VYS that the kid was offered too high a team for the coming year. How many "train wreck crazy" parents do that? None I've ever heard of. Maybe it shouldn't have been posted here, but if I were VYS is really a quality organization, they'll reach out to the parents from the affected teams (the ones whose kids were staying, not the departing PP) and try to figure out what VYS could have done differently. [/quote] I'm the PP who made the parenthetical comment about the rant. I feel that I'm well equipped to judge it--I actually have an email subfolder where I keep the angry soccer emails I've been copied on through the years. I had a good starter set just from having multiple kids at a variety of clubs and rec programs, but it's really impressive now since my friends know I love them and forward ones from their kids' teams. Sometimes they are drafted by the coaches instead of the parents, and I have an angry TD one or two in my collection as well. You are correct that on the face of it the VYS guy doesn't rate very high on the crazy scale, but you also have to consider the amount of time and care that went into drafting and editing that thing. Mind you, I'm not criticizing the guy. I'm grateful for his effort. I admire passion in virtually whatever form it takes.[/quote]
