[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been out in the lake all day today. Coming back to read all the arguments that include no real benefit is the highlight of my day and why I a say god bless the internet and p2p soccer.[/quote]
It is frustrating. There's so many involved in youth soccer that want to do things the dumbest way possible. You can try to show them better processes to address issues but it wont matter.

On a more positive note this does create a void that allows a more forward thinking league to get ahead.[/quote]Those that you criticize as doing things, the "dumbest way possible" have spent their lives involved youth soccer. Why would they listen to a random Internet guy who doesn't know all of the issues and relationships among the players, parents, clubs, leagues and coaches? And there are millions of random internet guys with differing plans and opinions. They all haven't earned the knowledge and experience to be true decision makers, they can only Monday morning quarterback.

If you think your waiver system to create an age range over 12 months is so great, harassing people on an Internet forum to believe you is a dead end. Go write an article or op ed pushing the idea or volunteer with clubs to better understand the industry.[/quote]
The problem is there is someone trying to claim grade verification is a deal breaker because it is too hard, we point out that it's not,  then we get a rando saying it's you again stop.  I don't think you are them because your posts come across more as if it's not going to happen so why discuss it.  All we are doing and I'm using we because there is more than one of us commenting.   We are trying to point out that the system as chosen defaults to Aug players being misaligned in the majority of the country.  But but they can play up... OK by that logic every Jan-July/August player could have chosen to play up in our current system to not be with those a grade below them.  Very very very few do.  Pointing out that the proposed system defaults to this misalignment and someone says but that can play up,  well cool that's not the problem and that doesn't solve the default status.  If that issue is too nuanced for you apologies. [/quote]
