Years ago the key political phrase was "soccer mom". I don't think this is what they had in mind

I truly believe I ran into this woman at a tournament earlier this year.

Wow Bill, sadly you are right. Parents like this old bag give soccer a bad name. Unfortunately there are a few parents like her out there. Man I have run into a few idiots over the years, but a majority don't act like her. Even worse her behavior wil reflect on her child and the teams she is selected for. Talent is not always enough to make a top level travel team, there has to be some chemistry too! Still soccer is the number one youth participation sport in America right now!!!

It could be a parody, but I think it's real.

She's continuing to post stuff that hits close to home for some of us

Funny, but laughing at her, not with her.
