Soccer lessons/practice etc. are almost always early Sunday and then then everyone goes a later Sunday mass. Kids are tired so they behave better in mass, too.
No mexicans in McLean.
So wrong. You’re not a good person.

This area has been a soccer hotbed for decades.
8am and rain for kids is no big deal and not crazy.
Field space is limited games start at 8am and go all day.
I live across the field next to Franklin ES and that field was empty on Sunday after 12pm. Not sure what you mean by Field space is limited. It is not even a soccer filed. It is a baseball field but people use it as soccer on weekends.

OMG, it is a ten year old's soccer game! Reeeeeeeelaaaaaaaaax........
It’s not about soccer, idiot. It’s about her health and adequate hours of sleep.
If it isn't about soccer then take your discussion regarding sleep recommendations to the CHildren's Thread:

Are you the same idiot as above or another idiot? The PP was just indicating that he/she wants his DC to have adequate sleep in conjunction with soccer.
If you don’t like it, go take a nap. Sounds like you lack sleep as well.
Exactly what does his post or his desire for his kid to get 11 hours of sleep at night have to do with soccer?
