More Soccer News
Today's government run schools are turning our nation into a bunch of mindless, spineless, wimps. No tollerence policies are instituted to prevent administraters from having to exercise their mind and think, and everything from grading with colors to the playground is becoming a feeling sensitive pansy land.
But, when you decide to ban soccer, as school in Charlestown, S.C. did recently, it somehow doesn't feel so bad.

KJ, I hate you :)
Check your mail in a few minutes, you punk.
The head butt from Zindane was the most ferocious act I've witness since Iron Mike Tyson chewed the ear off of Some Guy. Soccer may just be too dangerous a game for we Americans.
KIND OF LIKE OPEN-WHEELED RACING.
What will the soccer moms do now?!
Morons.
The answer isn't to ban sports.
The answer is to make the little heathens follow the rules. This isn't fricking rocket science. That is what sports are intended to teach.
I had to laugh a few years back when my husband was coaching teen select soccer. My son was the youngest (and biggest) kid on the team. He was also the gentlest.
He was always getting called by the refs even though he was invariably sportsmanlike both on and off the field. The other boys, though, were often overly physical, and by that I mean they would play dirty. I don't mind hitting someone hard or blocking hard, but follow the (&*&^ rules. If you're not good enough to beat someone to the ball, take it like man - don't cheat and try to take out their knee or ankle because you are a p***y. Don't cuss out your opponents or talk trash to try and start fights. Sorry, but that really frosts me.
My husband waded onto the field one day to pull two kids apart who were talking smack, shoving, and right on the verge of throwing punches. He'd already warned them (and their coach, who was instigating from the sidelines). All he did was grab them by the scruff of their jerseys and physically hold them apart. You would have thought he'd decked them from the reaction.
He [[[[touched]]]] children!!!!
A few parents came up and thanked me after the game, but it was plain several were deeply upset that someone had 'touched' a child's jersey. He didn't even raise his voice - he stayed perfectly calm the entire time, and the refs didn't bat an eyelash. I think they were relieved he'd averted a fistfight.
I think we are losing the ability to handle ordinary confrontations.
Did you touch my blog?! HARE DARE YOU!!!!
Heh. "Hare dare you???"
Uh, "HOW DARE YOU!!!!"
I didn't touch your blog. Didn't touch your Hare either.
