Insane tryout wrote:

They can start practicing in August and have 2-3 months of official practices before the season starts? And 9 of the 11 original members were replaced? What was the point of the earlier tryouts? Just let football season end and then start practices.

That is insane (not defending mom or son)

From the article:

"Bloodman's son, who is a minor and was not named in the suit, spent two months as part of the team after qualifying through two tryouts in August only to be replaced three months later by a member of the football team, as were nine of the team's 11 original players."


poorly designed team qualification structure/procedure - coach should have been fired!! Why the heck involve kids for that long, stringing them along really, only to replace them. Sends a very poor message.That the kids spent 2-3 months learning the game only to lose spots to kids who played football, shows that the coach wasn't very good at teaching the game, just at recruiting talent later. Sound familiar?
