[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]lol no. Are they really marketing it as MLS next? The joke here is that they’re calling it that when it’s the second tier and that’s all they’ll be able to compete at. I have not seen ECNL RL teams being admitted in before they could get the NL designation. 
Did that happen?? [/quote] both james and VRSC did the manipulation.   Top kids figured it out. However many duped [/quote]

their social announcements literally say tier 2 so they didn't do the manipulation like rev, but nice try https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1FiqoxTrx6/[/quote] not they left it ambiguous.  Which is a manipulation. [/quote]

Exactly.  It is marketing manipulation but all of the clubs are doing it.  First tier MLS Next is Alexandria, Achilles, SYC, DCU, Armour and Bethesda in this area.  I apologize if I left someone out going off the top of my head or if someone was added that I missed.  It is a very SELECT group of local athletes.  It is positive for this 2nd tier to form as we have enough local talent to play each other without a lot of travel.  VA needs to play more against MD before you start needing to go NJ, DE or PA. Less travel = more time to actually develop into a MLS Next 1st tier product.  95% of the local kids do not need to travel outside of DC, MD or VA to find talent equivalent enough to challenge them.  Under this new system, some kids will develop into 1st tier players and move to 1st tier clubs.  Over time, I suspect some clubs will have excellent production records and eventually replace some of the current 1st tier clubs who have subpar production records for player development.[/quote]
