some of you parents are going to be extremely upset should your sons or daughters go on the college level and perhaps even further.

when you say this are you talking to the parents who are complaining?

i have a question for all of you that say these things about us. how many cd games have you attended in the last few years?

if you've been to some and sat near us (cause you can't sit with us) you would know that we have now stopped saying these things. the west stokes game was our first day of abstinence.

have you ever seen this in high school softball?

Yes I have, at N,DAVIDSON but it was done with class cheering for their team and not against the other team. Before anyone says it "NO" my dd does not go to nd.

NO one is telling you to stop going or cheering for cd, all anyone is saying is, do it with some class. That is an awsome picture and if it were done with class I think that most of the schools around would only wish they had that kind of support.

no, giving yourself more credit than due. this was a directive that came down from raleigh pertaining to football games and carrying on into all sports.

we should all heed the late MLK words borrowed by former NFL'er Joe Ehrman http://www.buildingmen.org/2007/default.asp

I have a question as well! Are you aware of how immature you are being???
Okay so now the opponets can't sit with you!!
What if someone sat there by mistake, not knowing which side was which??? Is there some large penalty involved??? Like having to listen to the large group of inappropriate fans??
Do you think that this behavior is ok just because the opponets family and friends are sitting somewhere else?
Give it up and learn that you are immature right now and one day when you are all grown up, you will possibly have kids of your own, and you can look back on this and say God they were right and I was so immature, hopefully my kids will never act that way!!
Yes, I have been to softball games with that kind of crowds, even bigger! Oddly they knew how to act appropriatly!

so let me get this right, you have a good softball team, last years champs, and a good pitcher, so that appartently gives you the right to verbally abuse players from another team? it would seem to me that most of our members are trying to educate you about respect. its not sandlot ball any more, its highschool, its cheering for your team, not dubbing the other players. in fact in most of the hs games that i have attended, parents and players from both teams will cheer a players excellent effort no matter what team they play on. respect...i honestly wouldnt come on an internet forum about softball, consisting mostly of parents and coaches, and defend your position, there is no defense for being disrespectful. as Braves pointed out, its all about the girls, the respect, support, training, education and public knowledge of their accomplishments. If this were done at my hs, my retort to the students guilty would have been simple: "you've embarrassed yourselves, you've embarrassed the school, your idea of team spirit and support is twisted to the point of negatively affecting our school image" if you personally aren't guilty of saying anything, you're still guilty by not stopping the persons who did. you're guilty of association simply because you didnt up and leave or stop the persons who are guilty, in other words, if you didnt stop it, you probably supported it in one way or another.

As a moderator, i welcome all new members, but if your only reason to come on this board was to defend a position that has no defense, i suggest you not come back. you're free to post anything in good taste here, just be supportive.

i've seen no schooling going on from anyone all i've seen is either people supporting us or people bashing us and don't get me wrong i have respect for everyone that steps up to that plate against any high caliber pitcher and i want to know what games you attend that when the opposing team gets a hit the other team cheers for them, cause i want to see this and how are the ones that diddn't say anything guilty what are they so posed to do pick us up and throw us off the stands and not let us back on? no we are all family and no i'm not going to leave a game that i just paid four dollars to get into for one and two that i want to cheer and help my team in any way i can since for one its kinda hard for me to be out there playing considering that am a male and softballs a female sport and you say that we can't even defend our own schools actions and say that we were in the wrong and we have settled it and to be supportive when your a moderator and not even being supportive just bashing kids that are probably half your age i don't care if you delete me either because i'm done we have stopped but still hear complaints and i'm done trying to settle this. yall just keep bashing and well just keep cheering and theres nothing you can do about it

Looks like great fan support. I would only hope the fans would be as supportive if your team was losing.
