[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The mentality demonstrates in this discussions should bother everyone.  First, why do people feel the need to throw salt in the wounds of FCV players/parents. Second, the arrogance demonstrated by poopooing EDP is mind-boggling. I can understand players/parents desire to play ECNL but they have to think out of the box. The reality is that this area does not need seven elite teams. We also don’t need two national leagues.  What is best is for the best FCV players to move to other clubs and others to find a team that fits their abilities. We don’t need DA v2. EDP might be the best place for some players and to be honest, there are competitive EDP teams. Maybe the non-stars can excel on an EDP team. Most top teams do play in the top showcases, which will become more relevant to college coaches.[/quote]

Trust me when I say that soccer parents and players affected by this are having their own discussions at the dinner table.  And a lot of those discussions are based around opportunity and exposure and value for the money these clubs are charging (FCV being on the higher end cost wise) then it's simple, ECNL > EDP - all day long.

So if FCV opts for the EDP by choice or by virtue of not receiving an invite to join ECNL, then will they plan on lowering their fees now that they don't have the distinction of membership in the DA?  Highly doubtful.  So, will parents keep paying DA type fees for their kids to play in the EDP?  If all ex-DA clubs had been absorbed by the EDP, then that would be a stronger vote for them.  But seeing that a lot of the former DA clubs are lining up to join the ECNL, well then, that speaks for itself.
