Not me, not you, not the owner of the gym, not a boyfriend, not a girlfriend, not a BFF or even a BAE.
I have nothing constructive to offer except this is the best use of the word BAE I have ever seen.
Ok continue on.

I'm afraid to ask what the contents of the image were...I kept wracking my brain, while organizing 3,000 new legos (shoot me now), for a way to day just this and you did it better than I could. You have every right in the world to be part of this conversation, but just because you can do something doesn't mean you always should. You can not change everyone's perception of this event because you are 1 of 20 on a team, you are also not a coach, not the athlete, an owner, or the parent of the athlete involved. So while you can speak for you, and I believe everyone does and will appreciate your apology, you can't apologize for the disgustingly vile image Adrian sent him, you can not apologize for Kyle's mean spirited tweets at the time, you can not apologize for Jessica saying he betrayed her, you can not apologize for Eddie saying CEA is second rate and/or unethical...the list goes on, but I'm sure you've gotten the point. You can speak for you, but I see this as you trying to speak for the team as a whole---and right now, that isn't your place. And I think if you try, it's only going to cause you more aggravation than all of this probably already is.
This will all fizzle out in time, not right now because it's actively happening, but it will; and what people think and feel will be what they think and feel, but it doesn't mean you have to go out in a blazing fire of glory defending SMOED to the end as it happens.
If people are allowed to post links to the episode I will very disapointed to say the least. If I am not allowed to post the truth & facts in writing then showing the link to episode here shouldn't be allowed either. Who cares that it will be on youtube, if people want to watch it there if it is aired then power to them ;) The show is a joke anyway
I think the why is pretty obvious to maybe everyone but you!the how and why is debatable.
This seems pretty harsh coming from someone who doesn't watch every practice or know what skills all of the other teammates have (unbiased first hand knowledge). If they're part of the team, I'm sure it's because they bring something to the table. Jessica wouldn't have put off going to Berkeley to half butt being on the team or not try to gain more skills and push past being 'not very good at all'. That girl has heart!Then when they were replace it was with 2nd & 3rd choice bases that were just not cutting it & didn't have the skills. This caused Dylan to have to 'carry' his stunt group
For Jessica to say that she was taken into Eddies office & told she was being replaced then blaming it on Dylan leaving is damn ridiculous! She shouldn't of been there in the first place, she doesn't have the skills, just look at her jumps in the episode they are not very good at all.

Then again, I do not know what skills everyone has either besides the glimpses on the show that could be taken on a bad day or at the end of a rough practice but I would never belittle they ones they do have and worked so hard to obtain. We get it, there are kids with skills below your son's but there are kinder ways of saying that.
That would be Teal TeaI heard there is some teal koolaid on these boards ;)
And him and his family had been completely silent until their son's name was placed front and center in that episode, titled.."Dylan's Story" SILENT. As a mother, you can't tell me that adults disparaging your child who left without drama or any noise whatsoever wouldn't set off a oh heck no reaction from you to protect your child?? Kris, you are so hot to defend these coaches and this show that you can't see this man was defending his SON??? DO you think what he did was out of line? You're shimmying post's about "I'm closing this thread and removing links until Eddie and Tannaz can reach out to this Dad." Too little too late on that front. Probably returning a text or email while his son was still on their team would have been in order but.........that was too much to hope for. Nobody wants the drama to continue as much as we believe this man has every right to sit up and say I know how you operate and under no circumstances will I sit back while you spread lies on your 6 minute webshow about my son! That wasn't Dylan's story. That 6 minutes of BS should have been titled Lying Liar that Lies............ Pssshhhhtttt

While I do enjoy a good fierceboard "crapshow" I was more annoyed because the thread was shut down by a request of a big gym to give them time to get their ducks back in a row. Ducks which they have had plenty of time to handle. I can understand why some threads get shut down at certain points when things get ugly or out of line but this was not one of them. Reminded me more of a bailout of Wall Street by the government.I completely disagree. I think a lot of people are upset the thread closed because they want to see all drama unfold. You seriously underestimate how many people love to sit on the sidelines and watch fierceboard devolve into a crapshow.
I think this is more the frustrations of a parent who's son got injured because a teammate was put in a position she doesn't have enough practice/strength on. I'm not sure if you've seen the episode or not, but Eddie himself said that without Dylan pulling the weight of that group it can't stay up hence why Jessica was replaced.
