[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Clearly some on all sides are feeling defensive.

There is not a head to head comparison if the head to head did not exist.  M&D LOST to teams Legends beat (but that doesn’t matter). 
Legends was within 1 of FLC and M&D lost to FLC by 12. (but that also doesnt matter). You can make your own rules up but until there is a Head/Head between M&D and BLC you can’t use that rule.  Hard to argue that a 40 point Goals Allowed difference doesnt demonstrate a team’s overall performance but, oh wait it does matter. Specifically since thats how the rules were written and have been applied!

The same thing happened in 2035 - BLC, MD Black and MD DC.  BLC LOST to MD DC but MD black didnt play either of them. They threw out number 2 bc they did not all play each other. So they went to GA, which is how BLC ended on top, followed by MD Black and then MD DC.

I agree that is unfortunate but that is how the rules are laid out.  And why the COMPUTERS took the rules, the scores and spit out brackets that had to be “fixed” when parents didn’t like the outcomes.

Either way, teams, and especially 9-10 year old girls are not to blame.  NGLL needs to decide on how they want to address so it moving forward doesn’t leave rules open to feelings of wrongdoing.

This is a long post for someone that doesn’t even have a basic understanding of the situation.  What do you mean M&D DC didn’t play BLC?

M&D DC, BLC, and Legends were all 4-4.

M&D DC beat BLC 14-8 head to head.
M&D DC beat Legends 9-7.

What is the argument for either BLC or Legends getting in over M&D DC?
