			<description><![CDATA[I can assure you that this is not the Jason Horowitz? you speak of. Just a fan that is tired of hearing the MARFU bashing. There should be more players from the other teams in the union but when they don't try out how can they be selected? The PRU/VRU boycott does nothing to help the situation. People claim that there was no try-out, there was. They claim that the team was pre selected, it was not. They claim its a joke, check the score, 91-3 is no joke. Instead of ripping the team, and the coaches, support them by encouraging the players of the union to try out regardless of your opinions on the selection process. Its sad that people would rather criticize the effort of those willing to try, than to put forth effort on their own to deepen the selection pool. Work with your players, develop them, get them to the try-outs and prove those that you feel are holding the "Old boys club" wrong.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[No I can't, but what I can tell you is that there was not a single salisbury player who tried out, only one MD player tried out and he made the, and no Navy players tried out but one was anyway.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[the "tryouts" occurred a) AFTER a "select" player list was distributed (tranlsation- these guys are already making the team). Ask any coach in the league outside of PSU and KU and they'll tell you it's a joke. THese are players who made the team the previous years, and thus are expected to compete for position. The distributed list said 'possible players', and was not definitive. There are players on that list who lost their position to new players.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[2 schools make up 90% of this roster and their coaches just happened to make the selections. As a player from another team you just want a fair shot, and fear this level of blatant politics & Old Boy Networking. You can't tell me there shouldn't be more players from Navy & MD, or any players from Salisbury and the other good DII teams on this roster.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Look, this is the reality of competitive sports, but people do not like to admit it. So what if most of MARFU is made up of mostly Penn State and Kutztown? Ever noticed how practically the entire Spanish National soccer team is made up of Barcelona and Real Madrid player, with a few exceptions? Do you want the Spanish soccer coaches to apologize to every other team in La Liga for not picking their players? This is the same case. If these 2 schools are the best, why should an all star team not consist of many players from these teams? Do not be bitter. Encourage your players to work harder and aim higher, and they will surely find themselves competing for a position in MARFU. Sports is not fair. Selection is given to the best players. This is how it has always been, and how it always will be.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Its a real disappointment to see comments from people like Frenchie and BJ12 and Yep that are so negative. What exactly was your contribution to the MARFU side? A Boycott? Cowardly personal shots at a coach who donates his time?Read the roster, Navy, Delaware, PSU, KU, Maryland are represented. If you aren't happy with the representation that comprises MARFU maybe you ought to send some players to tryouts, or start producing some more quality rugby players. The kids that make up the MARFU team put forth admirable effort and their own money only to be bashed along with their coach. I'd wager that the reason the coaches selected many of their players is because they were the only players with the stones to show up and tryout amidst this "boycott" You should all be ashamed to defame the effort of the young men who represent the union regardless of what you think of the selection process. You call it a joke, but the joke is the people who bash those with the courage to actually try.]]></description>
