***Chill Out***
***Chill Out***
Please chill. I know this is a stressful time with all the player movement and tryouts. Your insanity, however, will not help your DD. Furthermore, it makes practice unbearable for the other parents while you walk around trying to get all the scoop and gossip.
Please, just take a bite out of a Xanex. Talk to people about work, about a book you might have read, maybe about which guy Klinsmann will use at holding mid - but just chill about the musical chairs. Every parent of a girl who loves their current situation but isn't a lock on spot is nervous and doesn't need you stirring the pot. Just be gracious. Remember this is about growing up and you acting like a 13 year old doesn't further that ambition.

Re: ***Chill Out***
I think we all need to remember this is our dd's journey, not our own. It's crazy to me how much drama is stirred up by the parents acting like middle schoolers, when we are supposed to be the ones setting an example. My advice is to relax and let things work themselves out. There is way more to life then NTX soccer.AddisonFootball wrote: Parents,

This is competitive soccer not montessori soccer. If you cant deal with competition or pressure - or teach your DD how to deal with competition or pressure, go back to your toe poking rec league in Addison and celebrate mediocrity with a participation medal. Don't forget the orange slices for halftime...

I'm for Beckerman as well. But I'm of the opinion the 4-2-3-1 with a double pivot suits the players and allows MB to generate from deep.

B-bag should have said. D-bag. Someone used to have a clip art of a douche bag to insert.
Too much tequila last night.
