The other, and more important reason is that there owner bullies and assaults kids. He assaulted a kid at SJC, was caught with hookers at McLean. He writes nasty email to kids when they leave his team or miss practice. He once emailed the college of a committed player telling them to unenroll him because he left Madlax. Just read the article below.

Really? I have no doubt that he sends mean emails, makes a ton of money, and sneaks his B teams into lower age groups. Guilty as charged. But hookers and assault - is there any evidence or is that a bit of MadLax derangement syndrome?

Hopefully all in the past - better judgement and discretion comes with age.

The post prior suggests ML doesn't play games in the fall and now you are backtracking into the October/November games. I call BS and they will be playing games all Fall into winter.

HaHa, should have looked before I posted prior because I went to ML site and they are playing a tournament the first weekend of October. Don't apologize for Cabell. He took as money players as showed up and will be mixing rosters and won't be playing in leagues because it's a pretty good strategy.

Correct

Oh, I'll bet they'll be playing plenty of Fall tournaments and then the training and position work argument fails.

He assaulted a kid at SJC, was caught with hookers at McLean???

The reason why Madlax is getting hate is because their owner is just there to take money. 35+ player Rosters. They had 10+ Defenders on the DC Dogs last year (only 5-6 play).

Yeah, but Madlax is basically the only top division team that isn’t playing.

I don't think Madlax has any qualms about breaking kid's hearts - they already have highly ranked teams. They are looking towards fall tourneys - the participation of elite level teams this fall isn't what it has been in the Hoco spring - they would run over most teams.

Of the 60 clubs who plays blax for spring hoco, only about 20 or so are playing this fall.
