My guess here is that they dont want to name the travel team to protect the girls, so if you do know, please have the decency to not post it.

I wont name the team but it was a new team and most people outside of a 10 mile radius wouldnt have heard about them........This area is absolutely livid and this piece of garbage is very fortunate it is hard to break into jail.

I am one of the parents of the travel team and please, please, please if you do know the team please do not broadcast us. Please give us our privacy. Our daughters are scared, frightened and in emotional shock, just as we parents are. Please don't assume anything that would result in baseless gossip. I ask that you keep the girls in your prayers and to be uplifting and encouraging of them. Show those that are not part of our big softball family that we care for each other. Thank you.

what type of a social service agency did he run? Parents I work with children every day who have been molested. It is important that you talk with your children about boundaries. It is not the wierdo on the street it is the neighbor, the teacher, the relative, the coach, etc. It is typically someone the child has a relationship with because that is how predators work it. Statistics suggest that at least 1 in 5 and some say 1 in 3 girls will be molested before the age of 18. It is a much bigger problem then people think.

I have to say not mentioning the team is a great idea however when something like this happened in SD county people on here just ripped apart that coach, the team and the organization.

Please, no ass-hat posts about the parents, they are suffering enough.

Dickweed...how about no ass-hat posts...period?

When my kids were 13, I knew where they were, what they were doing, who they were with...everything you could imagine...24/7. There was simply no opportunity for a slime ball to make his move because I was the on the scene, over the shoulder, everywhere and anywhere...especially when it came to any one on one moments with my DDs and another adult!

First, you deal with this feces of the earth by placing him as a roommate with 3 or 4 lifers (the large Black ones) from East LA in the federal pen,...then you go to the parents and ask, "Where the f#@k were you when this slime ball did his work???"

"Almost" fanatical ? It was (and to some still is) more akin to a cult-like following.

I am sure we can all agree that this terd has it coming. Unfortunately the rumor mills are going beserk. No one wants to post the name of the team this terd was coaching at, which is understandable. But these rumor mongers just have to come up with a team. Just today at a friendly in Hemet, I was approached by several aquaintances that had asked about my daughter and her team. They knew that she had played on a team in Temecula and based on news reports concluded that this was the team because they couldn't think of any other team. So...for the record, Temecula Rush is not the team! Although my daughter does not play for the team anymore, we still have a lot of respect for the coaches on Temecula Rush. It is not right that this team is getting zinged for being in the same zipcode as this terd.

Once it is disclosed in the media, then its a different issue, With the situation you referenced, he was well known throughout the softball world. Once his name was mentioned, everyone knew the org. Several news stories mentioned the org in their articles.

The ripping was due solely because the situation was allowed to happen twice by the team, the coaches and org. Sorry, but anyone who doesnt error on the side of protecting the kids deserves whatever crap they got, and then some. I cant believe anyone with kids would even make the pathetic point you are making.
