Bundy for the win over World Class

Ok em parents. This is getting embarrassing. Why are you posting here? Read and enjoy. Have a laugh. Don’t stoop to the level of others. For years this was a quiet age group on botn. Why now? And sideline parent behavior….get it together. Stop critiquing other kids openly and loudly. Stop acting as your kid is the next mia hamm. It’s supposed to be a team effort. A once amazing parent sideline is now a [****] show. Just enjoy the ride and shut up. You’re making us all look bad.

Like it was stated earlier in this mess of a forum, the problem isn't coaches, it's not players, at this point I don't even think it's the club. IT IS THE PARENTS. As a dad I stand far away, If I complain or murmur I do it to myself, frankly I couldn't do what these guys do.

I think I can, get out there run a few sessions and play against top athlete's easy right? Getting 13-year-olds motivated to love the game and compete, when they are running from MIDDLE school ball or school ball in general, to now train and learn something completely different then go home do homework and study for a test, all while they know you're talking about their teammates and causing divisions amongst the group, all because they are playing a sport at a higher level then you ever could so you live vicariously through your daughter. Some of you need a grip on reality.

You win some you lose some, some of you look like a cracked-out wacko on the sidelines scratching your arms, like you just put your house up to win the game. Shut up stop talking about your kids to others let people talk about your kids.

Some of you expose your biggest insecurities, I hope they talk about my kid, you see what my daughter did, you see my daughter, NO! I was watching my daughter and encouraging my daughter and the team.

We don't draw talent because of PARENTS like this. Nobody cares about Evan or Bundy and what weird fling they have going on. Nobody cares about the wacko whose pacing around the field and talking about their daughter on the sidelines. We have a great group of girls, keep it that way.

11 players on the field it's a team sport, you want individual accolades? Here is a list of single player sports. Pick one and you can cheer your daughter on all day long let me enjoy my daughter and her TEAM.

EM 2010 team is better now that the toxic dad left is now the 2011 problem.

Which toxic Dad that went back on age to 2011 there is a few

EM 2010 team is better now that the toxic dad left is now the 2011 problem.[/quote] Well said. It all starts with the parents and the kids feed off of them. As far as I can tell the EM 2010 sideline is a changed group with parents that seem to support the team as a whole. This is a group with a lot of new faces playing new positions with new teammates. It will take sometime for them to get comfortable with each other and watching this past weekend I can say they looked like and played like a Team. Maybe its best that any EM parent that has issues should refrain from writing negative opinions(if it is an EM parent) on here. It only fuels the other malcontents and isn't helping the Team.

Hahah Evan. He’s 0-100 against Kenny

This was once the best team in all of LI but somehow after last year’s coach it’s bin downhill. This new coach is doing things ass-backward. Our girls should be playing better soccer especially with the core from under Matt are still here. No wonder we keep losing the best girls to SUSA. Any guess what that score will look like?

Oh Evan

I've just asked my club to have my kid to play up so that I don't need to look at this shirt-show of a board anymore....

If you've read or seen "Fight Club" then you know exactly how "real" LGN Energy is lol

The last poster is posing as an EM parent and is just spewing garbage. Recently, Torino has had a nice influx of new players, and all the parents have been extremely supportive of the team and the new coach. It's a new season and we're very happy with our soccer family, why don't you just worry about your own and move along.

Isn't this exactly how it works every year? Then by mid-season you realize what a sheet show it's been and you get to come back and read this thread and say...yea this man is spot on!

Its every year the EM parents are never happy, everrrr. They get new players, they aren't happy, the old cut players or players who left complain here and express how much they hate everyone in EM but will show up to tryouts every year. If they win a game, you'll complain team won, if you lose its WW3, they are always calling the coach always complaining about something. When you put on an EM uniform you are bred to hate your teammate and complain that your daughter isn't getting enough playing time. Everyone hates everyone at EM facts are facts. They will bitch about each other while the kids play for each other. Problem has always been the laughingstock of EM parents. We watch how you act and let me tell you lose more people or don't attract new people, because people watch how you act on the sidelines.

There was a guy pacing the field at Farmingdale field during the EM tourney yelling this is [****] about what field they were on. He looked like he was going to have a heart attack. I turned to my buddy and said oof these guys are nuts. Seems like it's a bunch of spoiled brats who cry and stomp on the ground when they don't get their way.

I don't know what the guy above is talking about, I stayed to watch the EM vs Forza game and the coach for EM coached them well, they looked like a completely different team than last year moved the ball nicely scored some nice goals. Like I said unfortunately EM parents' things like the above post are what stops people from coming over and makes cleaning up your image difficult your team looks good the girls all seem like great kids' problem is you guys. I will say you're not as bad as SUSA they are so nasty and bad there are whole other forums just for them it's a sad soccer world.

EM brought that curse to themselves. I’ve met countless parents who were former EM- and they all have one thing in common-they hate the club so much they chose to walk away from it. A lot of people seem to have a hard on for the DOC-Ruairi for whatever reason. Sounds like they’re blaming him for single handedly chasing all these families away. At the end none of it matters, once your kid is in a club where they are enjoying the game then who cares about the rest. ECNL parents at EM…lol…you get what you pay for. Well that’s the general consensus anyway, hopefully your kid can have fun because form the looks of it, you might end up being one of the worse teams in the ECNL for this age. It’s like almost a given.

Really, as if these things ONLY apply to EM? In FACT, I've spoken with countless parents who have left SUSA, LISC, and EM. They're all relatively the same, they'll bash the crap out of them. They'll all blame something or someone other than their own child's performance. Yeah, the coach sucked, not enough playing time, toxic parents, daughter just as good but coach too dumb. Maybe some of it is warranted, but mostly it's all about broken egos. Rarely does a parent honestly say, she just wasn't good enough and it wasn't the best fit for her.

Parent, why do you sound like a coach? Are you trying to hopelessly defend your trade? Odd that the only parents that have complained to me have all been from EM from our 2010's to the older 2007's. Some of these kids aren't great, but not bad and others are really really good in my non soccer opinion. Like I said, it doesn't matter if your kid hates it at EM or where ever just move on. EM seems to be the windmill of LI soccer-5 girls in this year with 7 leaving at the end of the season just to be replaced with another 4 that needs to wear the ECNL patch for a season and then they leave. Sorry about that coach, but EM just can't do anything right-including youth soccer.

You would never hear that are you kidding everyone invests too much money and live through their children to ever make that claim, that hey maybe she's not at the top but she's happy. They need to be the best and if that coach doesn't make them the best, they are crap and it's the coach's fault. Childrens happiness development attitude and love for the game is never the forefront, its Wins and Losses. Look at this thread Evan 1-0 Bundy for the win over World Class.
Last time I checked the kids play, not the coach not the parents. That proves this has nothing to do with anything the crybabies complain about, these are a bunch of parents complaining that their Egos have been shattered because they can't brag at the block party.
My daughter's happiness, and the want to go to practice and the want to compete, and the love of her teammates is why I am where I am, we don't need to chase jerseys or patches. If my daughter does well that's on her, if she fails and falls, I will help her get up and encourage her to keep working hard if she wants it, she'll go get it if she doesn't, she'll stop. Some of you talk about 13-year-old soccer, like you are banking on a scholarship or else your child can't go to school. You need the grades first and you have to work hard for that and study hard. Do you guys call up your kid's teachers every week asking why kids are performing poorly in school and laughing about it? Oh, wait that's the teachers fault too, right? Yet you'll call the coach if your daughter got 15 min a half and then write here how s h i t t y everyone coach is. SUSA, EM, LISC are EGO driven maniacs.

I am not a coach so I'm not defending "my trade", I'm just a parent who played competitively a long time ago. Most kids do not LEAVE top teams, they get CUT because they are at the bottom of the roster. It's part of sports and life, it's not easy on the kids but I think the parents take it so much worse. Stop listening to these parents who claim that they've been wronged and the clubs are awful. The majority of them haven't been mistreated, they've just been told that they don't think their kid's skill fits the dynamic of the team. That's it, move on!

LI Soccer coaches are a special breed. Like short bus special! Speaking about short how's old man Rory doing? He still screwing the parents there at the old patch? Lotsa flack here directed to East Meadow Soccer Club. They've been screwed ever since Epstein and the crew walked out. Hearing the club's been a piggy bank for every Club president that's been in that position since they left. Good times as always in LI.

Jesus Christ Shut the F up already EM SUSA bull [****], for clubs that are hated so bad they are the only clubs spoken about, so stupid bunch of psycho paths.

Why do you think that is? Maybe one of the reasons is that ECNL is a great platform for exposure. The GA is also another very good platform although maybe not as collectively strong as ECNL. Although there are a ton of kids playing in ECNL and GA and it's no easy feat to get recruited to commit in college, it provides a much better chance to those seeking that opportunity. Please don't turn this into "there are other ways" like attending college specific IDs, most of us all know the landscape. Just go take a look at the rosters throughout D1/D2/D3 schools, they get the majority, not all, but the majority of kids from ECNL & GA.

Trust me coach when I say these kids were not cut. Well 2 of them for sure. The other one maybe.

Trust you, lol, they were cut, end of story. Proves my point, they didn’t leave. The coach didn’t think they were good enough, that’s sports for you. It doesn’t define who you are yet these parents come on here and trash the coach and club when all the coach/club did was cut them.

2 of them turned down ECNL offers my friend. You really do come across as one of the shiesty coaches. Affiliated with East Meadow by chance.
