The new website looks great. Up to date and very informative. The "red & black balls" versus the "white & black balls" is a very creative illustration and really hammers home the point. Does it elicit a negative reaction from other clubs? Does CESA care? I don't know.

Picture this. On a "down year", another SCYSA club team beats a CESA team for the state cup championship. The winning team goes wild on the field. Players are bouncing up and down on the CESA logo at the center circle. The parents run to the goals and tear down the nets. The team gathers beneath the scoreboard for a team picture under the scoreboard which reads Us 1, CESA 0.

How do the CESA parents, coaches and administrators react? Do they say "look at those @$$holes...jumping up and down like fools."? Do they become angry? Are they upset at this display which they may interpret as being "anti-CESA"? Is the winning club out of bounds for acting like they just won the World Cup?

Seems to me that a lot of clubs will take satisfaction in knocking off Big Red. CESA, by the very acronym of the three words that now appear at the bottom of their new logo, is the 900 pound gorilla.

And everybody gets a kick out of it when David slays Goliath.


Kids play sports because they find it fun. Eliminate the fun and soon you eliminate the kid.
