Enough on this - you all made your point and hopefully 'something' constructive or good can come from this silly back and forth and we can all learn from it. Use this site for something meaningful and be done with this item.
I read the full string of comments here. I did some homework based on the 'original question in this string', as it made me curious. Statistically EB is 13-1-2 and that record included wins over Winter Haven and Berkley Prep, and ties to Bloomingdale and Newsome. All teams ranked relatively high in the state rankings. I also saw a comment about a 5-0 loss to Melbourne. Based on these other scores and other games, I believe it would not be too smart to overlook this team as any team can have a bad game. You also never know the circumstances behind any loss - missing players, injuries, and illnesses for any one game. I also believe this game was over XMAS break so... I personally would not read much into that one game from what I see.
So all of you please get off the egotistical comments and move on. I've seen this team play and if you think they are a push over, you are mistaken!
As far as parents - hopefully these comments will be taken constructively and things can calm down. All parents at MANY highschool games act the same - some worse then others (even the good ones pop at times) - we just only see the ones at the games we are at. There are many of them out there!
Remember this is a game for the kids and they are doing there best. I've noticed that the verbal attacks are USUALLY directed to the REFS and not the kids(right or wrong for the REFS). I would be happy just seeing more consistency game to game in the way they are called, BECAUSE THAT is what sets the parents off at these games!
