Like, if you don't agree with the results of the 2016 election, are you able to comment on that...or only for the 2020 election?
If you want to threaten Trump supporters, is that OK...or only if the opposite?
Are you able to encourage violence, but others can't?
Just put one set of rules out there for everyone to follow, and there would be no problems.

Here is my question? When you say "partied too much" what exactly do you mean. Because if true this could either be serious or nothing at all.
If coach was partying too much and was late to games, hung over at games etc... then yes it should be complained about.
BUT if he was simply drinking at the hotel after his soccer duties were completed then this is nothing.

You're perfectly free to complain about ANY election at any time - you just can't take up arms because of it or call to take up arms. How often are Dems calling for violence vs violence from the right? The US government for years has warned of the threat of domestic terrorism from the right.

Antifa gets blamed by the right but there is little evidence to support it. It does get investigated, as it should
"The FBI has several ongoing investigations into anarchist violent extremists, including those who self-identify with Antifa, according to Wray. "We're going to be looking — and we have been looking — at their funding, their tactics, their logistics, their supply chains and we're going to pursue all available charges," he told lawmakers Thursday."

I think parents have been very forgiving. So if something is a matter of fact and can be proven it occurred its open for all to speak or write about.

Or is this someone just out to slam the coach because they have a bone to pick?

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostWow, I am sure you struggled getting out of the 9th grade. Here is a refresher course for you. What most have written about the events in Florida are TRUE and actually there has been some key points about this trip as well as past events that have been left out and I believe that is the right course. Its up to the parents to figure this out in private or with the ECNL board. Coming on here isn't going to get that done.

If people have a substantive issue with him go to the club like real men instead of posting it anonymously on Talking Soccer.

A lot of parents are fearful of speaking up and putting their children in jeopardy. It's not black and white when speaking up could hurt your child's future at the club that they have grown friendships with and want to remain.
Adults trying to navigate life lessons and the here and now have it tough. In general the club needs to do much better and be mindful that these young kids look up to them. I will not speak to specifics on this forum.
If the truth is important to ECNL then they can easily discover what did or did not happen.
