PDA was favored by 3.46 goals and won by 5 goals. That is actually kind of normal when you have that spread as we saw with SYC at the Virginian tournament. In the end that is how rankings also get adjust. PDA will go up a little and Bethesda will move down in it's ranking/P.I. It's not rocket science. |
Last place, is last place. 6-1 is a thumping. How bored was PDA. When you come onto these boards and you talk brashly it usually comes back to bite you. Cherry pick a win or tout "strength of schedule all you want, The only place your team has a winning record is outside of league play and based on the results you are .500 against CCL. But by all means, keep bragging about winning the 3rd bracket at Jeff Cup against non-ECNL competition. Does Jeff Cup often put teams with such a high YSR P.I. as BSC in the 3rd bracket? Take you outside of your ECNL Conference and there are zero Top 100 teams who would waste their time against you. Jeff Cup certainly wasn't going to waste their time by placing you higher. You're not competitive in ECNL and that is what you are being called out on. The strength of schedule might matter if you had any results. Your only win in your conference was against a FC Bucks with a losing record. Beat a team in your conference with a winning record and come talk to us otherwise recognize that your team is not very good. |
Let me school you once more. Nothing more fun than making an idiot even look more so... First off, never have been brash other than saying ECNL is much harder than a CCL league. We are in the bottom of our league, yes and deservingly so. Lots of room for improvement. Second, YouthSoccerRankings.com and it's PI index has been proven over and over again to be extremely valuable when it comes to helping tournament directors create competative tournaments. Third, and to make you look completely stupid. When it comes to Jefferson Cup we won a good game over Loudoun ECNL. Loudoun is 6th of 13 teams in the Mid-Atlantic ECNL conference. Not sure what you are looking at or if you are just that ignorant but you also just offended every Loudoun 2008 parent on this board. They are similar to us and looking to improve. BTW, there were two CCL teams in that same bracket. Both of them finished winless. Fourth, yes, our one division ECNL win was a 3-1 over FC Bucks who are currently ranked #91 in the US. Yes, they have a losing record in our division. That just tells you how strong the 2008 year is in the North Atlantic division. FC Bucks won WAGS last fall getting a tough win over MD United. I'm really not sure what your problem is what club you are representing. It's probably better that way since you continue to dig your own hole. I'm only here to defend against parents who have no idea what they are talking about. These parents tend to be McLean, Metro, and now SYC parents. Here is the best part, I have posted on here many times supporting Metro for who they are. I also have consistently defend BSC against a former Bethesda parent now at McLean who loves to come here and post nothing but negativity. I have never once attacked McLean as I respect CW. Same thing goes for SYC or other league members who want to believe CCL, EDP, or NCSL is even remotely close to ECNL. It's not. It's not on the same level as GA either. I am sorry if this hurts your feelings but sometimes facts can do that. It has nothing to do with parent or club I am affiliated with. /rant |
This is the by far the best delusional justification of being a terrible ECNL team anyone will ever have the pleasure of reading. I'll also dig through the forum and see if I can find any posts complimenting Loudoun as being a model or competitive soccer club. Congrats, you beat Loudoun, get in line. You are aware that as a club Loudoun has an abysmal win loss record right? Your true competitive level is CCL not ECNL. You've beaten only two ECNL teams, that does not make you competitive. Your team might find ECNL competitive but ECNL does not find your team competitive. On double header weekends, your the team the opponents subs start because they want fresh starters for Pipeline or MD United. You're the team the opponent gives the starting keeper the day off. In short, you're a rest day for your conference. |
We are in the bottom of our league, yes and deservingly so. Lots of room for improvement. It’s actually not your team. It’s your DD’s team. Please do not say “we”. GA, CCL, etc are not on par with ECNL nationally but locally there are teams in those leagues that would and do beat local ECNL teams specially the bottom dwellers. Having seen SYC and Metro at the beginning of the season to now they have really improved. SYC would beat BSC by 2 goals and Metro would be a tie. |
Love it. Somebody beats you down in an argument and your response is to insult 13 year old girls. You are an awesome person. You still have yet to disclose what club you represent. I'm still guessing SYC until you say differently. Are you taking your frustrations out from your recent State Cup loss? While you are so jelly, do me a favor. Since your argument we aren't competitive, please go and count how many of our 12 ECNL games were won or lost by one goal. Wait, I'll save you the time!!! 8 out of our 12 games. And if we are suppose to be competitive in our two games against the 2nd best team in the United States, well I guess we would be one of the top teams in the United States too. But that is where you are right, we are not. No biggie. We lost to FC Frederick 2x in very close games. That is the only CCL team we lost to. We also won a game against them. We also won 3-0 over the #1 team in CCL, Beach FC. By your argument, that would CCL should be moved into EDP Division III. If you want to count your 2-0 win against the 2009 Girls team who only played a few 11v11 games and are apparently is struggling, feel free but that is pretty low. At least we played up and beat the SYC U14 Blue team. Your hole seems to be only getting deeper. What happens now that your two top players are leaving? |
OMG, wrong. It is our team. Last I checked it's the parents that for their children to play hence we are vested. That's so cliche. It is also "our" club. LOL, SYC beat BSC by 2 goals. Not to mention WE beat Potomac 08s who have 4 Metro players 8-0 while SYC beat them 2-1. Next thing you will be saying is SYC can beat FC Virginia as well. Heck, might as well throw VDA in there. IMO you can have McLean and BRYC. I actually think SYC is the better team than Metro because of the midfielder. |
You've beaten nobody down. In fact, you don't beat much of anybody. 1-10-1 Congrats, you'd be the top of the heap in CCL. Tell the class how this makes the team great? Your team being moved into EDP or CCL is exactly what I'm suggesting. If ECNL was Pro/Rel you'd be out, but it is Club based so you get to ride on the coat tails of ECNL even though your team is woefully uncompetitive. You're team is closer to BRYC than the highly inflated YSR ranking. You want to mock a parent for leaving your club, I think we can all see why they would do that by the way, and you think your kids team has a record that allow you to look down your nose McLean or anyone? You can barely look down on CCL so just stop while you believe you're ahead. |
LOL it’s not your team or your club unless you are playing or coaching. I have seen YOUR team play. You do not have the players to beat SYC or Metro. You know BSC is actively looking to replace players on your team right? How has your play been lately? |
FYI, Potomac has 4 part-time Metro players |
Still talking up beating Potomac? Really? 1-10-1 |
Do NOT think about Bethesda vs Potomac game too much. In the game, 8-0, Bethesda had two 09 field players as guests and one 09 field player was a goalie. Potomac 08 is having lots of problems. Recently the coach was changed. (The previous coach moved to Bethesda.) |
Nope, just giving an example of an 8-0 Bethesda game versus a 2-1 SYC game. Enjoy your 3rd place CCL finish and good luck in the CCL moving forward. Those bottom level CCL teams along with the top notch talent those teams provide will certainly be tighter games next year especially since your top players moved to ECNL teams...Hmmm, EDP league we are 3-3-0 with one loss to you due to our 09s playing in our place. Another loss was a forfeit due to us playing in New Jersey that day. The only real loss was to the top team in the Division and it was a 1-0 game. Total 14 goals for to 4 against. As for SYC, you are below us with 7 goals for to 6 against, 2 of those seven goals against our 09 team. So in EDP play, you have half as many goals for and more goals against. Maybe you will play your last two games, maybe you won't. We'll do our best to get better in those 8 out of 12 ECNL games we lost by goal, tied, or won while trying to make the FEW blowouts closer games. Who knows, maybe we'll scrimmage or play each other but SYC better hope for a different type of game that was seen the in that one 5-1 game/scrimmage that we did play. Since that was scrimmage and our bench and 09s played many minutes, we'll just chalk that up as a play date. |
LOL. You said you would be better this spring, remember? Once you got “healthy” Your in last place and comparable to BRYC. If all you’ve got is a win against Potomac to hang your hat on then you haven’t hit bottom yet. 1-10-1 is all that matters. |
Lucky you had the 09’s. They saved your butt.
