[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]ECNL-RL, MLSN2, GA Aspire have nothing  valuable to offer the soccer community.  The only purpose they serve is to take more of the league market share from others such as USYS and compete with each other.  [/quote]

If there were only MLS Next, MLS Next2 and EDP we would all be fine

No we wouldn’t, a monopoly on the top two teams in every club are u kidding me?  All this excessive travel is an effing waste of time and money.  Even if families get scholarships for fees who’s going to take off work to drive them etc.  gotta be kidding me, at least state run orgs have a vested interest in their residents.  These national business could give a crap.  The odp bubble up model was better than all this corporate pro/college pathway promise .  No one, even the coaches, are buying it deep down, but enough parents are willing push their kids and/or vice versa into this delusion. [/quote]

I think there is so much less delusion in youth soccer than this forum makes it out to be. Parents are busy raising kids and not focused on “fighting/fixing the system.” If you have the time to do that and willing to use your child to prove a point, then you are very privileged to be able to do that.

At the end of the day, kids just want to play at the level that suits them and that there are so many choices is not a bad thing. That college is even an option is a privilege that is unique to the U.S. I truly believe that most soccer parents are putting their kids in teams and leagues that is best for them. Even on DS MLSNext team, I don’t see any family having unrealistic expectations about their son’s skill level or future. It’s a year by year thing.

And frankly, I don’t understand why some people think good soccer development should be free/lowcost or theres some sort of entitlement to that. Or that if anyone pays for something, that they’re delusional or buying into status or it’s a money grab.  It’s the people who whine and complain about everything who are likely to have had the most unrealistic expectations.

Delusion is thinking one corporation should come in and take over nationally all the soccer clubs top two teams. But if if you are an MLSN badge wearer I guess that makes sense.
