Does anyone else get annoyed by having games on college football Saturdays?

I get annoyed by having college football on soccer Saturdays.

Dude, are you serious?

Are you new to soccer?

If your kids are involved in soccer, you need to forget everything else.

I am always surprised by the parents who choose to not watch their own child play soccer (or any other sport) because they have tickets to see a Clemson or USC football game. They would rather watch a game where no one on the field is even a distant relative.

Never have liked youth soccer on Saturdays. Nothing should interfere with college football. Seems to me that coaches could easily work around the South Carolina and Clemson football schedules Monday-Friday and on Sunday. No use in making families decide one way or the other.

Why USA will never be a real contender on the international level. Sad that people will back a school over their child... "No use in making families decide one way or the other" - shouldn't need to decide

give the guy a break. he probably busts his onions all week at work, then does the weeknight cart the kids around to their events & practices and then might want a little adult time to watch his alma mater on his day off.
our parents told us to just go outside & play.
some of you are too entrenched in your kids year around sports.

The flip side, of course, is all the middle-aged alumni and (even worse) subway alumni who get all teary-eyed over a place where they spent (or NEVER spent) four/five/six years of their lives ...
When the school and its current faculty/staff/students/coaches don't give a [censored] about anything but your checkbook.
Please.
Do yourself a favor and follow your kids.
