Originally posted by bcoop View PostI played my entire childhood, up through high school. It was pretty fucking violent.... But girl's soccer (my sis played from 5yoa-Juco) made the competition and violence in boy's soccer look like a walk in the park. Those girls were ruthless, and this is coming from someone that was pretty ruthless in his own right.

Some parents are useless pieces of crap and bad examples of true sportsmanship!

When I coached my girls in soccer, we had dads go after each other on two occassions. Both times I had to go before the North Texas Soccer Association for hearings, even though I was never directly involved. When I was a kid, our parents NEVER came onto the field for any reason at all, and we never saw altercations between parents.
Personally, the only thing that would cause me to get physical at an event is if my kid gets hurt at the direction of a parent telling their kid to do something dirty. If my kid gets hurt due to the game, that's one thing and it's part of whatever they are doing.
Although, even though my kids are only (almost) 3 - the little bit of stupidity I hear out of parents already is strange. I remember sports before/during school years and parent encourage their kids and really got excited - but nothing like this shit you hear about these days.
At worst, they'd get in the ref's face and other parents/coaches took care of that. I can't think of one time the police were involved.
