@bradstevens lol no

I'm imagining you and Lars out on the course, he with his frisbees and you with your soccer ball.  What fun you two could have!

Competition is the great thing that unites us all. 
just like the older gay brother that we all share in @aloha-hoosier . You can’t help but to scratch your head, and love him all at the same time. 

In a nutshell..

LMAO..!

@mcm666 Yeah. Deserved a draw. Front three once they get Cesko in there might be decent. Need a full time CDM and jesus christ a keeper. 

Finish top half. Whisper in Europa Leagues ear this year.

@bradstevens you need to embrace your inner overbearing, sports dad or your kid will be playing violin with the Asians.

I would prefer my kids play violin with the Asians. I failed there.  

Son didn't make the high school hockey team last night.  Think he's done.  Too discouraged and embarrassed to play for another club.  Sucks.  But he needs to find something to do to fill up that 12-15 hrs a week that's not video games.  

 

 

Hockey is definitely the strangest of all youth sports. I never played but as you know my High School won the State Championship in hockey pretty much every year. 

In my experience the high school players and parents are all somewhat delusional to a degree that far exceeds any other high school sport. They all think they’re going to be in the NHL, and forgo college and go to these weird secondary schools and semi-pro leagues. 

They never ever stop chasing the dream.

Quite a few things I’d like to do with the Asians, but none involve a musical instrument.

@carramrod they all don't forgo college.

 

There were more kids drafted from college then the top junior US hockey league in the first round of the most previous draft.

@boogie that distinction doesn't mean shit to me. They're all chasing ghosts thinking they're going to be Patrick Kane.

Back in my day (of racing triathlons) we referred to this as stealth training. It was a time honored tradition to accuse each other of this, but it was rare someone was actually doing it. The worst was when someone would finish a race and then declare they were going for a four mile run to warm down. Pissed everyone off because you couldn't just sit there and let him go do it without going with him. But it pissed off the guy who said he was doing it because now he actually had to go run four miles rather than only 2.

Would you encourage your kids to stealth train for the SAT because you thought they were competing with their friends for admissions spots at colleges?

Can't even admit you're wrong when you make the claim that nobody goes to college when given facts about the college game.  

Definitely on par for you.

No. Unless your kid and all his friends were applying to the same school and you know the school was only going to accept one of them, it's absurd to tell your kid to "stealth train." They're not competing against their friends for admissions spots. 

Besides, apart from doing some practice tests just to know what the SAT/ACT is like, I don't see any value in expensive classes or tutors for those things. Then again, when I took the LSAT I bought a book of practice tests a couple weeks before. I made it through about 20% of the book - enough to get the gist of what the test was about. Took the thing hungover, on about three hours of sleep, and did just fine.
