[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These are PRESEASON games. Coaches aren’t playing for results. They’re trying to get teams setup for the year. Are you really going to judge a team by a scrimmage score in August?[/quote]

yes.

while coaches [u]are [/u]working on things, it does show what sort of talent level the club has and how they will play.

The coaches are not putting players in a position to lose. These are high level clubs with a majority of the same players from last season.  These coaches are not re-inventing the wheel here.

Don't kid yourself.[/quote]

Take the 10 NFL teams with the best preseason records. Bet $100 on each of them to win the Super Bowl that season. Would you make your $1000 back or not? [/quote]

Not even close to the same thing.  Those teams are playing a bunch of college players and vets trying to make a roster.

The local girls soccer teams don't bring in 50 players and play a bunch of pre-season games to fill out the bottom half of a roster.

These teams MAY have a handful of players, AT MOST, different from last season.  MU didn't bring in much and trimmed a handful OFF the roster. RU roster looks similar to last season as well.  FCV added a a few at some age groups, lost a few.

This is not the BILLION dollar NFL we are talking about, it is pre-season where new formations (same players), depth at positions (same players), conditioning (same players) and more are being worked on.

The only thing different is some may be on vacation, as appears to be the case with MU this past weekend.[/quote]
