[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So for those posters blaming the merger on Brave’s performance, how do you account for the timing here?

If ECNL really drove this for that reason, they had plenty of time to prepare. The imaginary 2 years weren’t even up (they’ve been playing for 18 months), and even if they were, ECNL would want to retain as much talent as possible, so would give more notice, rather than rush this right as GA and ECNL ID sessions were happening.

On the flip side, we have SYC unexpectedly pulling out from Union last month, and Union suddenly losing their main talent pipeline. I guess that’s supposed to be a coincidence?[/quote]
SYC will end up looking good in the rearview 2-3 years from now.

ECNL isn't bad but it's not setup for mid level clubs to do well.

Parents are starting to see through the BS and understand that GA is a viable alternative. [/quote]

This is where you have things backwards.  GA is good at the top.  As good as ECNL.  At the middle -- ECNL crushes it.  GA is nto good at colelge commits at the mid-level.  ECNL will commit whole teams at mid-level.  Bad ECNL teams will commit mosy kids.  Bottom GA will not.  ECNLR is no where near top of GA but it matches the bottom and the lower mid.[/quote]

Close, but the top 10 in ECNL would crush the top 10 in GA.   [/quote]
But none of the top 10 in ECNL are in NOVA. So what does it matter?

Are you bragging about how good the clubs MA ECNL teams lose to in the finales are?[/quote]

And that's the crux of it all. Some (one?) are arguing the leagues as a whole, which is disingenuous. Locally, the talent level between leagues/teams is very minor (at best).[/quote]

The insecurities of these folks is amazing.

Maybe the soccer forum should be split between posts for girls and boys/real soccer.
Girls parents have lost it [/quote]

It’s crazy. The girl parents post constantly, assuming everyone else is a girl parent. Much crazier. [/quote]

Boys ECNL soccer is pointless, you should all go start a new thread "Boys ECNL - We just turing in the hamster wheel". Girls ECNL content is relevant so please carry on, my goal is 100[/quote]

Or maybe all the crazy GA/ECNL debaters should just start a new thread that is not titled Union/Brave merger and can loop infinitely on the same argument. GA super fans can politely leave this thread and start their own as last time I checked both Brave and Union are ECNL and both clubs make money from boys and girls. Unfortunately the girls are stuck with the boys program whether they like it or not and they better hope the new club gets it right because their ECNL charter for the girls seems to be key dependent on whether the club/s can get their sh*t together on the boys side enough to satisfy ECNL…with Brave in bottom third in nearly   every age group with huge double digit goal differentials MYS sure better have a rabbit up its sleeve as to how this merger is going to make any sense l. Unfortunately girls are going to need to care about the boys at this point whether they want to or not…[/quote]

Brave boys were not the problem that started this no matter how much you want to peddle that narrative. But soon everyone will have a stake in Mcbrave boys. I hope they have a great season next year and enjoy the game without parent commentary. [/quote]
