[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The parents who do the most usually have the least skilled/athletic players on the team. The parents feel the need to compensate for their child’s lack of talent. AND these type of parents usually can barely even walk up the stadium steps without wheezing because they are so out of shape and then scream at their kid the entire game and get annoyed when their child is subbed out for someone better. It’s so pathetic. Every club has these kinds of parents. [/quote] +1 You can tell a lot about kids’ genetics, lifestyle and future by looking at mom and dad.[/quote] No I have seen so many former top level athletes blow up(get fat) or hobbled by old injuries once their careers are over that judging them by their appearance now is silly. The parents who seem the worst are the CrossFit gym rat parents. They never played at any kind of level and did not know soccer existed till their kids made the team. They scream at their kid, suck up to the coach, suck up to parents from the team above them and most bizarrely they suck up to the top kids on the team while rooting for everyone to fail. [/quote] Yeah. I haven't seen that. Even my brother that was a professional soccer player and is in his 50s, a bachelor that drinks too much and doesn't regularly workout from arthritis and past injuries is still 6'2" and looks like a former athlete. Our friend with a Superbowl ring isn't as hugely muscular, but is still incredibly fit in his 50s...muscle memory--I work out a helluva lot more than he does. The Ex basketball player on my kids team (final 4) play hobbles on his knee but you can tell he played. The coaching staff at my kids' Club are all fit. A lot of those fat *sses are lying about their past glory in sports.[/quote] The fat couples that neither one is over 5'2" aren't going to suddenly have a superstar...no matter how he plays at age 11. PP--they actually do look at family genetics in pro academies in Germany and Holland. [/quote]
