Kyle, you have threatened to ban several posters in the past for being "ganster" and for using foul language. Well, Hammer has basically made racist comments and has profiled this sebastian kid. Your thoughts?
This thread has just been brought to my attention via a Private Message. I don't know who Sebastian Velasquez is, but I assume he is Hispanic -- is this correct? I've heard of his ability and if I'm not mistaken, also heard that he was a Junior Scholar at Greenville HS. Since I didn't read this thread until receiving the PM, I understand how the "Hammer's" comment has been interpreted and I will edit that post.
However, from the other point of view, this is a current "hot topic" with the S.C. High School League and the validity of foreign born players and the authenticity of birth certificates, passports, permanent papers, etc. I'm not implying that those circumstances have anything to do with S.V., but do know that it's an issue that Principals and Athletic Directors are going to have to deal with in the Palmetto State.
As for the gangster posts, my position stands the same today as it did 2-3 weeks ago. I'm not going to have the Message Board subjected to that kind of crap! There are plenty of other places to discuss that information, but www.scsoccer.com will not be one of them.

I am sure the players that play with Enzo help make him look good too. Aren't there numerous odp players on his team?

Kyle,
I think you are missing the point here. I don't think anyone is disputing your stance on the gangsta banter.You have made it well known. I believe the more serious issue is a poster coming on here and making racial overtones towards a specific kid not people making a parody of a musical genre.
One is a game; the other is serious.
Finally, for anyone to say that Sebastian is not close to being in the ballpark of any player in SC is juvenille.

Honestly, kids...adults...grow up. Read what Kyle wrote. It is a very heated issue right now within the coaches association whether or not "illegal immigrants" (ooo look I said it too!) should be allowed to participate in High School athletics, since they have to be schooled per the national legislation. My understanding is that if a child merely shows up on the steps of the school with no papers, passport, greencard, phone bill, electric bill, anything he has to be educated. Does this apply to after school sports as well? This mainly affects soccer for obvious reasons that anyone should know so I'll spare you blatantly admitting non-racists the harsh realites.

thanks for sparing everyone the harsh realities. Here is a reality for you. This issue is not about illegal immigrants and their role in high school soccer. The issue is about one kid being singled out.
You were just told like it is ace.
