Fun Fact #1: From what I've read, he wasn't considering OU at all until his brother sold him on coming to play as his teammate again. Fun Fact #2: In high school, he was friends with one Sam Bradford, star QB. Fun Fact #3: His school won 4 straight state titles while he was there. |
Yes, I really wonder what Bob Bradley is feeling right now. Even Michael for that matter, knowing where his father coaches and how that easily could have been him.
This rioting is ridiculous and such a severe problem that needs addressed. The soccer world is out of control in this way. I even see how parents get rabid and weird in traveling soccer! I played both soccer and basketball and never once did I feel nervous or pressured while playing basketball. The families were supportive and fun, everything get on so smoothly. That was not the case for soccer. Some parents were kicked out of games, got upset with their children, there was a tension, a pressure constantly. I see it all the more now while watching my nieces games. I love the sport but there's something about it that makes people go crazy! Quote:
How many years did he play for OU? |

This prompted my son to declare that these games are no place for parents! :lol: |

I think here in America because soccer is such a middle to upper class sport, you are also dealing with egos and "class" as well. My niece, Anna, dislikes 90% of her teammates off the field. I think I am even being generous with the 10%. She finds so many of them stuck up and superficial. She hangs off the field with 2 girls and merely puts up with everyone else. I was the same way. I was close friends with very few girls throughout my traveling soccer career and a couple more in high school. I couldn't stand so many of them... so full of themselves. Even the parents had the nice groups and status crap going on. My parents always stayed out of that ridiculous stuff and were nice to everyone but in private they constantly complained! |
Parents god help me if I ever become one of those crazy sport parents. I love sports but i could never see myself becoming as insanely invested as some parents do with their kids sporting events. Yes I will support them and go to every game and if they want help I will help but I'm never going to be one of those crazy moms taking stats for a 5 year olds scrimmage. It's insane!!!! They are kids!

Exactly. I absolutely cannot stand it.

Ya'll hear about Kevin Durant dissing Griffen's dunk? A lot of people are upset with him for that but(I cant believe Im about to take up for a Wronghorn) I kinda like that he stepped up and did that. One, he is supporting his teammate in Perkins by saying Im not going to celebrate something that was a negative to my team mate and team and Two he is a Wronghorn after all and rivalry runs deep him and Griff were on opposite sides of the OU/UT Rivalry.

Luck I just read this quote on espn: Quote:
ETA: I actually credit Durant for sticking up for his teammate. I like the loyalty. |

Eh to me it doesnt rub me the wrong way he didnt say he thought he was better than Manning just that he wants to play right away. I for one dont want to draft a QB i.e. Leader of my team that doesnt WANT to play right away. Texas Fun Today is realignment day in texas.....and yeah it matters. My facebook feed is filed up with it and ive gotten texts all day about the shockers oooooo the things we get excited about down here. Football matters. |

Anyway....this one particular dad from our team didn't like the way this one Ironbound kid was contantly fouling his son. The ref was not calling it and this dad got so frustrated that at the end of the match...ran up to the field and physical grabbed this player! The other dads and the ref had to physically pull him away! :eek: Quote:
