My guess: your kid is a decent lax player. But I bet you scored about 200 on your SAT verbal. You clearly suck at reading comprehension. |
Not sure if you are paying attention, but there has been some stratification at the top. Coppermine has been unbeatable vs other mid-atlantic teams since last Spring. MDU is improving, and they have the best individual player in the region, but has been erratic. Pride 2028 tied them last Summer, for example. M&D is struggling against top competition. Heroes Green is beatable. Pride had a lead going into the last 10 minutes and lost by 1 in November. Lots of changes as players develop. Should be a very interesting Spring. I'm hoping a DMV team beats one of the top 5 this year. It's not impossible. And no merger necessary... We can wait for Capital. |
Thanks Pride Dad for that hard hitting analysis. Sounds like a lot of woulda coulda shoulda on more losses. The Top 5 NGLL A teams are not losing to any DMV team this spring, but keep the faith going! |
I hope you told her how well she played during the car ride home. |
Sorry, no player on the team with 2 goals was impressive on that day. |
Unfortunately because 2 teams dropped out of NGLL the playoff pool will only be 4 teams instead of 6, so one of the top 5 teams will be left out of the hunt and pride won’t get a chance to be a Cinderella team. |
Ha, you haven't been watching 2028 games if you don't see that kid's natural ability. |
Coppermine unbeatable? Hero's beat them last spring, MDU lost by 1 to them in Spring. Crush and M&D tied them over summer. I do agree Coppermine top 2028 team, but def beatable. Hero's lost by 2 this past weekend to them. |
All the top teams in the midatlantic NGLL (Copermine, MDU, M&D, Heros) are capable of beating each other. But no chance a DMV team is beating any of those teams this year. Closest anyone might get to beating a top team is Crush and the only team that could possibly do that is Pride. So yeah, we will have to wait for Capitol. |
IMO Crush is now better than Hero's, so best chance for a DMV win would be against Hero's. |
Why do you think they are better? Did they gain a player? Fall results hard to say, they didn't play a lot. HG looked good against Coppermine, very close, even indicated by the 6-4 game, it really coulda gone either way. |
The Hero’s parents do follow this forum, who woulda thunk? |
Perhaps they are better this spring than in the fall, but the 4-3 Hero's win against Pride in November makes me think they may not be as dominant as they used to be. I understand that was a very close game with the score tied into the final couple of minutes, at which point Hero's scored and killed the clock the rest of the way. I understand, at least on that day, the teams looked to be pretty evenly matched. I don't think Pride would match up that well against any of the other top teams, including Crush. Crush has some dangerous players and if I had to chose, I'd play Hero's rather than Crush. |
Pride has a shot at making the playoffs. They will probably only finish with 2 loses. Heros already lost to coppermine and still has to play M and D, so both teams could finish with 2 loses. |
Not a chance. If even Hero’s got knocked out crush would make that it in over them. But keep dreaming Pride Dad |
