    • Soccer tournament to spare you? Or will you have to cut electricity to your house.

          • Indoor soccer or Nebraska football?

            I think I would re-double my efforts as a professional drinker.

            • Nah...its fun when your kid is good, and their team is too. Nebraska football requires some serious liquor however.

              • UNL is a slivovitz situation. U12 soccer is merely a good IPA situation.

                Reffing MW games, incidentally, is a swallow your gun situation.

                • Soccer must be pretty big there. I remember on time traveling through the area a few years back and there was some huge scholastic soccer tourney. Every hotel near the interstate in Nebraska and south Iowa was booked. Decided to drive through, assumed I would get a hotel once I reached South Dakota (driving through to Grand Forks). With my luck being what it is, there was some huge quarter horse thing in the Dakotas and I slept at a rest area near Sioux Falls. Fun times.

                  • IDK if its a bigger deal than elsewhere else...I suspect youth sports in general is big business all over. MLS is popular here, due to the success of the local club (Sporting).

                    We are kind if new to it. My son had no interest, and Momo got into soccer late after a misguided foray into gymnastics. Try sitting through one of those practices...

                    • The whole emergence of "travel" sports and the general youth sports boom is, ummm, interesting. There was actually a good conversation on this on one of the thread on the main Lions forum.

                      I sort of miss just playing little league. But, hey, my 10-year old son is getting 5 lessons with Ohio State's hitting coach in November, will spend 4 hours a week in the winter practicing baseball and then will play 40 games this spring and summer. Woof. Thankfully, he's too short (for now) to try out well for travel basketball.

                      • Travel baseball is a big time sink.

                          I don't think my eldest is ever going to be seriously into team sports. Likes, wants to do, but isn't as intense about it as he is with other things. Awful at soccer. No foot-eye coordination. Can't get his baseball swing right -- he chops downward -- but he's otherwise pretty good at it. We'll see about basketball. I'd love that, if he wants it. He's got height. Would love to coach. The one season I was assistant for soccer was a lot of fun.

                          Not in a million years are we doing hockey. That's guaranteed sleep deprivation.

                          • I foresee a backlash to this bullshit coming in about ten years as the next generation of parents decides it's not worth investing in it, or in being helicopter parents in general.
