- If you don't get a waiver, you also don't play HS

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI know what the rules are. But my question is who are you saying is benefiting by this 'cheating' (and the cheating as I see it is the kid illegally playing for his high school, unbeknownst to their DA team)? The high school gets a good kid to play for them that they shouldn't really be getting and they could do better than they otherwise would But its high school soccer so who cares. Anyone else being helped or hurt by this cheating that I'm missing?
And it doesn’t matter, cheating is cheating, and there is always someone getting the payoff (in these instances, the player, and one or both of the schools). Likewise, there is always someone paying the price. In this case it would be the players who are playing by the rules, and making sacrifices where offending player is violating rules to get out the sacrifice. And then there are the kids losing playing time to the illegally playing player.

Originally posted by UnregisteredYeah, cheating is cheating but do you go over 65 when the speed limit says 65? Have you took liberties in filing your tax return? In either case, you're a cheater too. If the kid had his druthers, they'd be playing DA over school ball if they were good enough to make the DA team. But they are playing school ball as well to play with the buddies they grew up with. Silly to take the chance that you're going to get caught but its the high school team that has an advantage by this 'cheating', not the DA team. And who takes high school soccer seriously.

And someone already pointed out to you before, it is the DA team they should not be playing for this Fall. They are wavered and should ONLY be playing for their prep school. So stop trying to keep putting this on the high school benefiting, it is playing do the DA team where the violation is being made.

Have you not ever heard of the word “Variables”... because you clearly have are not using them in your argument. Speeding Is not the same thing as breaking a contract and breaking a contract is not the same as cheating on your spouse... but you clearly think it is all the same. I feel sorry for your spouse.

Originally posted by UnregisteredMost people would view speeding differently from tax fraud. This kid has to play high school because prep schools require it. There are plenty of prep school kids at NEFC, frankly their better players, who follow the rules. I’m not sure why you are assuming it’s such a great advantage for the school.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostThere’s another public player on NEFC who has played DA and HS. What is going on with the club? The public school kid is a good player. I don’t know about the prep school kid, but her mom is a college coach so who knows what’s going on there. But for those who left DA to play high school, it really stinks.
