Quote: Your consolation is that your team made it to the VC final, but will actually have a shot at winning state.
Jack -- I appreciate all that you did throughout the Viking Cup (and beyond) -- but had to tweak you after "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." -MLK Jr.- -- it was just too easy!
I personally think that the upstate papers do about 1000 times a better job of covering club and high school soccer than does "The State." And I think that "The State" will eventually get that they have to increase their focus on youth soccer since it has so many players and participants and alternative media (such as SCSoccer.com) increasingly gains a foothold and people look to newspapers for a stronger focus on their own lives.
But I really did think that you guys overreacted just a tiny bit to what gunner04 was saying -- which was just that there might be better ways to get coverage than being critical.
By the way -- I actually try to post a lot more about other teams than "my team" -- it's too easy to get caught up in cheerleading for what you know best.
