Like big foot and the tooth fairy.

Play someone. Anyone.

I agree it’s dumb, but the rankings at any point in time are definitely real.

Bigfoot vs Lumberlax. Winner gets Pride.

I know you are just a troll, so while I would like to tell you where to go, I will just offer facts for those who might be confused:

--Pride's current '23-'24 ranking is based on 29 games.

--Of those 29 games, Pride played 10 teams currently ranked in the the top 25, and 6 teams in the top 11, a total of 14 times (almost 50%) including: Eagle Stix, Coppermine, Hero's Green, Crush, MD United East x2, Sky Walkers x 3, Prime Time, Monsters, CC Lax x2, and LI Liberty. Every single one of those games was competitive (save the stinker in the NGLL playoff loss to Sky Walkers). They have played someone and anyone.

--Pride will play #2 Eagle Stix, #13 LI Jesters, and #21 Sky Walkers (for a 4th time) this weekend, leaving them with a top 15 strength of schedule, and a solid record and goal differential against that competition.

At this point, I guess based on recent tournament brackets, a too large NGLL A bracket, or some other unknown animus, you are trying to deride a team that's had a great run the last 3-4 years, developed and improved individually and collectively, and has some awesome kids/players. They are about to play their last tournament together as a unit. Better to say good luck and congrats. Stay classy.

Not a troll but pointing out Facts.

Have you played anyone on the top #10 in the last 6 months? You are pointing out playing teams in the top 25, if that didn’t fit your agenda you would pick out teams in the top 35. No one said pride is bad or the coaching is terrible but most people on this board might say the ranking doesn’t fit the schedule you have played up to this point. You might play the top YJ team next year but that shouldn’t get you points today.

Do you want me to give my tutorial on how the rankings work?

Math is just math, right? Can’t say it makes sense for one team and not another.

Congrats, here’s a fortune cookie.

Reality is they already lost to Primetime and would again. Throw in losses to the teams you listed above for Genesis and it’s a great analysis.

Without the IYKYK guy chiming in, can someone confirm that the coaches for Capital Blue are the current Blue 2025 coaches? Has that been directly stated somewhere or are we all just going off the “that’s how it’s always been done” assumption.

[Anonymous]

Honestly, all the best to the DC/VA/MD players this weekend. Pride and Stars families probably having mixed feelings right now as those teams generally go separate ways after Sunday. I appreciate much of the banter on this forum was, at least initially, from that cross county rivalry and I have enjoyed it. Wherever you all may land, I hope you continue to come back here for more trolling and trash talking. Good luck to you all.

Any chance you could pass along last name? They won't be checking ID's of 14-15 year olds, and we are free this weekend. We will definitely tell them of the switch as the event wraps up.

I would rather not say her name on this forum. I did give one of the coordinators a heads up she will not be attending. Her name is Amanda Hugginkiss. When you get there, just tell someone you are looking for her.

How about in the last 3 months? Hero's Green; Prime Time last week; Eagle Stix on Sunday. And MDU is #11th, but don't want you to claim cherrypicking again. Wrong the first time; wrong again.
