[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hear racism here too. Mentioned Spanish, mentioned didn't look like he went to college. Dial down the prejudice [/quote] As long as coaches in this area start to realize that just because a kid is Hispanic and has the flashy soccer haircut--does not mean he is automatically a great soccer player. Germany, Holland and England have proven you don't have to be South American to be a great soccer player. But, coaches in this area cream in their pants if a "dark" kid shows up. Even my 74-year old mother said as my kid's team beat an all-Hispanic team by a very wide margin, "why did I automatically assume they would be better?" A foreign accent also doesn't mean the coach is automatically knowledgeable and superior. Shatter the stereotypes all the way around. [/quote]
