haha your really going to compare the maturity of a 12 year old girl and teenage boy (i guess you think you know how old i am?) And i dont need to build myself up to bring others down. I know i am twice the player Eduardo is.

No, that would be a generalization again...but I can compare the maturity of the average 12-year-old girl to SOME teeenage boys who demonstrate their maturity.

And as my father always said when I was a teenage boy...

If you're really that good, you don't have to go around telling people; they'll figure it out. If you have to tell them...maybe you aren't.

As to generalizations...I said "the ones I know." You said "12-year-old girls." Of the two, which was the generalization?

No need to be sorry for posting; everyone here enjoys the privilege. If you're going to be sorry, that's not an appropriate reason.

And no...I can't recall ever seeing or playing Eduardo...if I had, I don't imagine I'd care to comment whether or not he was overrated. As I said, people tend to see what is or isn't there...no need to trash someone just for the sake of doing it.

That, I can understand...but don't let it get to you. Sometimes it's an advantage to be underestimated.

I think the coach was more concerned on the generalization of 12 year old girls..which was completely uncalled for..Is high school ball over yet? Not two more months of I'm better than you are..No..No..I'm better than you

Yeah, that's where I came in...I don't have any experience with the player in question, but I do know a lot of 12-year-old girls who don't deserve that particular generalization. Perhaps they are the exception, but they are there.
