Have Cubs parents EVER seen a losing game where they were not blindly robbed? I cannot think of a school in the entire state with such seemingly unlucky parents. Six rings aren’t what I would call unlucky. For these current parents? Surely they would act like they have been there before. Ok, Dallas Cowboys.

If that is your perspective, you are more of a homer than NS Nancy. 1. Cubs were the better side for 60/80 minutes. 2. NHS couldn't get past half field in the first half. 3. The other 20 minutes was pretty much back and forth. 4. Cubs could have and should have won the game easily. We play on turf and not your foosball table mud hole, Cubs win. If that helps you get through the night... well then do what you've gotta do. Just a question though. That thing where the MCA players lay on the field crying for 20-30 minutes after a difficult playoff loss... Is that something they teach at MCA in the 8th grade? Just curious.

Only two players on current MCA varsity players from championship. Neither of which parents are acting like dbags on this thread.. Your name calling is a real bruise.

This is uncalled for balz. Bashing 12 to 16 year girls should be beneath you.

I can tell you the worst non call I have seen in a game gave MCA a state title. Byrd is a big rival for us but it was hard to watch the final play where the ball came down off the cross bar, defender was shielding and MCA player went straight through the back of Byrd defender. Basically tackled her into the goal. Referee blew the whistle and ran off the field to end the game. That was brutal and clear foul that was not called. I have lost 3 state titles with two of them being influenced by the referee. Guess what, they still havent contacted me to tell me we are now the winners.
Also just to be clear, I have nothing against the MCA parents or program. I just hope the kids aren't reading this thread.

Even worse, they know who these dads are who hide behind multiple fake names and bash kids.

Yes the girls are reading the threads and yes they have figured out who most of these parents are. Can’t even begin to say how disappointed I am. Most of these kids have played with mine at some point or another. Their daughters she calls friends. Sad

All that call did was prevent OT and maybe some PKs. Score was 3-3 when that call was made. Northshore would have won either way because Northshore was the better team that day. Same thing happened at the end of that game as the CL game. MCA players crying on the field for 30 minutes. You need to let this go, pick up the pieces and move on. If that is your perspective, you are more of a homer than NS Nancy. 1. Cubs were the better side for 60/80 minutes. 2. NHS couldn't get past half field in the first half. 3. The other 20 minutes was pretty much back and forth. 4. Cubs could have and should have won the game easily. 5. Your recollection is incorrect. PK was converted with no time left to respond; 3-4. 6. We play on turf and not your foosball table mud hole, Cubs win. 1. For a team who is the better side for 60-80 minutes, said team gave up 3 goals in the run of play. And you lost. 2. NHS could pass mid field in the first half. Your half time adjustments were brilliant. 4. Cubs could have/should have won easily. You still lost. 5. PK was converted with no time to respond. What happened to being the better side for 60-80 min? Surely a team that dominate shouldn’t be in a position to have one PK send them home. 6. You play on turf, not out foosball table mud hole. Get it strait, it’s referred to as the farm or the goat pasture the size of a postage stamp. Tell ya what. Since you guys are still so hurt over a game two years ago why don’t you come watch a semi final Friday night instead of sitting in a dark room replaying all of the travesties that the refs have committed against you over the years. We can give you some ice cream and arrange it for you to pet the goats. Heck it can be like your own personal petting zoo. Get over it.

The majority of that team you call entitled is 14. One is 12 So if daddy needs to be there then so be it. The cubs that I know have already started training for USYS national league. No crying to daddy.

This is a game. No one died... not a pet or a family member. Ball your eyes out for 30 seconds or a minute, get your butt off the ground and go shake your opponents hand. Go cry some more in the locker room. Spend some time trying to figure out how you can get better and get back to work.

The staying power of this thread is noteworthy. Perhaps the feuding dads should meet at Sonic for knuckle-checking time.

In OT, it was unfortunate the line judge missed the offsides, but it was a freak play and I can understand why it would be missed. I was one four refs who were in the stands at the entrance end of the field when that goal was allowed. All four of us said it was offside. The AR has one primary job, watch for offside. Not sure what he was looking at.

No dog in hunt, just came by to see if things have changed. They have not. From many years back, but still applies today. 5, 12, 13 and 20 if you want a quick summary of what directly applies to this match.
1. Before entering your child(ren) into soccer, an ADULT must understand, first and foremost, the Louisiana Soccer Association (LSA) and the Louisiana High School Athletic Association (LHSAA) are business entities. The rules are in black and white, no gray areas. And at the end of the day, it is not about the players, your child, the team, the rules or fairness. It is about the money, as it is with any youth sport.
2. Players we are proud of you for participating in the “beautiful game”. However, aspire for greatness, be it on the pitch or elsewhere, but definitely in the classroom and in life. Very, very few players of ANY sport see greatness at the next level. And remember, all players are one injury away from prime time to pine time.
3. Parents, before getting all giddy over your child getting an instate scholarship to play soccer, please understand this. Should your child have the grades, the university will use the TOPS allocation your child has earned in the classroom. Less than NCAA D1 free ride, academics is the name of the game even to be considered. Soccer and dumb jock usually are not found in the same sentence.
4. Parents come onto this site, many blind, to the history of Louisiana high school soccer. Before mouthing off on how great your kid’s team is, please go look at the history of who has won state over the years. For example, one cruel fact is it has been a very long time since any team north of the I-10 corridor has lifted the golden trophy in the last game of the year. Baby steps…
5. Adults please don’t write checks your child or other children have to cash. That is, please do not come on this site telling us of the next coming of Landon or Mia has arrived by your estimation, and how he or she will be bringing the hurt to their opponents. You are not helping the child or their team.
6. All district selections are not always fair. Deals are sometimes cut before the meeting even takes place.
7. All city/region selections are not always fair. Newspapers have the need to represent all their market. Yes one local team may deserve 90% of the slots, but it won’t happen.
8. All state selections are not always fair. The active voting coaches tend to be involved in premier ball and know the players reputations before they hit the high school pitch.
9. Every year, there is a little Suzie Q who scores a bazillion goals, abet mostly against teams that could be beaten by the blind academy. Come playoff time, she (and her team) usually gets drummed out in an ugly manner. This is less of a problem on the boy’s side.
10. Always a big debate over the different LSA levels and how that translates to h/s soccer. More often than not, the teams that win state usually have a majority of their players that at some point had multiple years experience at the higher LSA levels. This is especially true at LHSAA D1.
11. Ninety-nine percent of the coaches are in it for the players. The others, well, personal agenda.
12. Contrary to what some believe, a soccer referee does not have an agenda to make a team a victor or a loser.
13. There are 80 minutes in a match. The outcome does not come down to one play. If so, why play the other 79 minutes?
14. Private schools will dominate as soccer powers. A few public schools will have good runs, but only a very select group of public schools see the semis and finals. Again, a result of what LSA level of play is involved. Public and private, usually the same suspects in the hunt every year.
15. Rankings/ratings/seedings do not matter. To be the best, you have to beat the best.
16. Second place is just the first place loser. Argument over this goes on especially on the boy’s side with the dynasty program over there. I’ve never seen fans chant “We’re #2!”
17. Shootouts are a cruel way to end a season. It is the rule, we all live with it. In a few years, it is all forgotten anyway, at least by the players.
18. One’s vision of the game and fairness changes once removed from the forest.
19. School colors sometimes make the best premier player stupid.
20. Parents, players, coaches, everyone...enjoy the moment. As has been documented on this site, sometimes God has other plans for us, some of which are simply to serve as examples of who is in charge.
In closing, enjoy soccer for what it is, a game. Nothing more, nothing less. Parents, enjoy your children while you have them. And players, make darn sure you appreciate everything your parents do to let you play the beautiful game. Be the best you can be in whatever you do, If you have done your best that is all that is expected. Life is unfair in the respect some are given more opportunities to improve skills, but that is what one should do. Use every opportunity granted to you to improve. Scoreboards matter in competition, but if the scoreboard is not in your favor but you did your best, you have done what is expected. Simple rule of life, there is always someone smarter, taller, better, etc than you are. But in the end, playing soccer and other activities are not rights, but privileges, facilitated by people who love you. And parents watching your children play is also a privilege, granted from above.

So MCA lost due to another "NOLA no-call?" The Cubans must be using the same sonic brain-scrambling weapon they used on the US Embassy in Havana on the hotels that football and futbol refs stay at in New Orleans. I smell a conspiracy.
