Re: Soccer Players...

I've played soccer most my life and never heard an insult like that just for playing it. Around my area is practically the biggest sport, anyway like most other ppl said - just ignore them

Re: Soccer Players...

Hey, sometimes these people come around. My senior year, we actually had our own students-only fan group called the "Hooligans". They brought drums, used face and body paint... it was insanity-and-a-half. Nobody ever did that at the football games. We had the best soccer fans of any high school team in our conference, and I'm fairly sure a good chunk of the country.

Ah, the chanting crowd = D. We always make one at the rival games (When my brother was playing), and I've learned that if you're catching the attention of cops/rent-a-cops, you're job. If I ever get a chance to play high school soccer in the future, I'm definitely joining in.

I believe that it was the '06 MLS Cup I went to. We were walking around and getting signatures (By the way, my brother's name is Edward Johnson, and he got to meet Eddie Johnson. He was pretty psyched = D). About half-way through it, I heard some loud chanting. I looked along the pathway, and saw the LA Galaxy crowd, with the leader of the pack wearing a "Pope" hat with Galaxy colors. I couldn't believe that I got to experience the MLS Cup in real life, and not on a TV screen.

Also, we have a football crowd [at our school] that does this, and boy do they get rowdy.......

Re: Soccer Players...

My school is a football school. Our soccer team does not have bleachers, but the football team has room for 2000 people. We are annually in state championship games, but soccer went 1-11 last year. About the only fans who show up are the parents.

Basically, if you play soccer in my school, the populus assumes you weren't good enough to play football, the only "real" sport apparently. So insults like that are thrown around a lot.

Good thing I run track

Your school is interesting. Some soccer players play football, and vice versa, including the star football player. Hell, I doubt that some people even know that he's in band.

The soccer players at my school are kickers for the football team. It was pathetic before, when they had some random kid that wanted to be a football player, and volunteered to kick. Some of the football coaches knew a soccer player or two and asked just for the hell of it. Things changed quite quickly.
