I have nothing against the Parker girl's soccer players. They only do what their coach asks them to do. I am sure their coach is a nice enough guy, but his sportsmanship is severely lacking. Running up a 14-0 score against a non-conference opponent who you can decide to schedule or not and then saying "you can only play who is on your schedule"? Even in victory the guy is completely ungracious. After a win against a Milwaukee school 2-0 all he did was critique the field and ballyhoo about how they won despite that. The guy sounds like a complete egomaniac. Congrats on a close loss to West. Let me know how the games against Middleton and Madison Memorial turnout.

Parker just lost 2-1 to Madison West and had a better chance to win the game than West did. I think that proves they can play with the Madison teams or do you have an excuse for that too.. I think your dis like of Parker and or their Coach is blinding you to give credit where credit is deserved. In the end these are great kids who are out there working their butts off. In the end it is about having fun. You dislike of Parker is blinding your thoughts. Palmyra Eagle just beat clinton 14-1. No comments from you about that huh. Again as I said before get a life and leave the kids alone. WHO CARES who they can and cannot beat. They play, have fun, enough said. If you still have your problem with the Parker coach, like I said take that up with him, be an adult and give the guy a call. He teaches at Parker

Parker has enough talent to compete with the southern part of the state. If you think they are anywhere near Madison's league, starters or bench players, you need to think again.

I think it's more a matter of not understanding or paying attention to the game from the sidelines. Looks like Parker has talent, if not in the starting lineup, on the bench.

I guess this is what happens when you play conference teams.
