THUSC Sapphire to join coach MJ (aka "Coach RedCard") on his new club/team

[Unregistered]

I know I'm late getting involved in this, but to say that a coach being ejected is the referee's fault is crazy. There are good referees and bad referees. Insulting them and making an ass of yourself is never the right way to handle it. I don't know who this "man" is, but my child would never play for such a poor example of a leader.

.....about 3 months too late!!!!! Let's all stop the comments on this post. I'm sick of the sight of it!![/QUOTE]

Your are free not to open the thread.

I don't understand people complaining about having to read this and that. You really don't have to read it, no one is forcing you to open this thread, read it and then comment on it.

If you don't like the topic, just skip it. It might save all that aggravation and having to over use the exclaimation mark to try and make a point.

Clearly someone wanted to read the thread and comment on it. If I were you, I would take my own advice and avoid the thread since you are sick of it.

Just curious, how does the Gaff rule play into this?

Can Sapphire and Black move to BSC and still be coached by MJ?

Is it OK because he didn't leave THUSC voluntarily?

Or is it a non-issue because they'll be at a different age group this coming season?

I dont know what the "Gaff rule" is specifically but I know he's at another club now (LO) but not coaching any of the younger teams- wondering who he might coach at the HS level then- will his Ireland team or players follow him over to his new club?

Start a new thread

If you wonder about Gaff - I would encourage starting a new thread versus carrying on a separate issue under this thread.

What a bunch of crap. You better start looking at what playing in college really means.

MJ is may help (as any Coach), put the ticket is great grades and test scores.

Most College Students (here that work - Repeat "Students) only last 1.1 years playing a Sport at any level.

Following MJ just because you think he will get your daughter in a college is like buying the Brooklyn Bridge. Sure some east coast school (D2/D3) may off you some money, but they are starting at $40-60,000 a years. If you have that money, go for it.

Start doing your own research and don't listen to MJ about this. If he was that good, why did this happen to him.

Not to mention MJ is damaged goods. He has little respect from coaches in the area and no pull from at the collegiate level. His inability to control himself has made himself a non-factor. MJ will only harm his player's chances at playing in college.

You have to wonder about any parent who would permit their child to play for a coach with such little self control. Way to set an example for your child. You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

I hate to see how your kids will turn out.

You know I don't condone anything that MJ has done and I agree that his record is questionable. On the other hand, I know two players that have chosen to go with MJ. They are great kids and they will turn out fine. Why attack parenting? Worry about your own kid and don't be so critical of those who don't make the exact same choices as you. It is not only none of your business it also lacks class.

Riiight. Because these poor kids will grow up thinking it is acceptable to behave the way their coach behaves when they get angry or disagree with someone. Shame on any parent who finds MJ's actions acceptable or justifiable and let's their child play for him.

Shame on you for being egotistical enough to think that you are the person who should teach everyone else how to parent.

So does that mean that your kids will grow up thinking they know everything and that they should advise everyone else on how to parent?

Go ahead and justify irresponsible parenting if it helps you sleep at night. Trash is trash.

Yes (and clarified your post)

They will know right from wrong. They will know how to deal with adversity without throwing a tantrum. They will know how to behave with decency.
