[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]It is not a question of whether SYC is likely to get top kids for U13. They already did.[/quote] Oh - and although I haven't seen the teams at this age group play, I would bet money you are just plain wrong here. One team never gets all the best players. DCU itself did not get all the most talented players - heck it didn't even get half of them - when it used to run teams at these younger age groups. Nor did VDA get all the best players when it was the only full DA in town. There will be a huge overlap between the rosters of all the top teams in both leagues, and even if SYC were the "most talented" I would bet good money that the best three players on any of four or five teams would be amongst SYC's top five.[/quote] In the very next sentence, I also said Achilles and Bethesda are top teams in this age group and Achilles grabbed more top kids as well, so you are either dumb or intentionally misreading and mischaracterizing what I said. (And if your teachers were any good, this just confirms my point that even the best teachers cannot do much with mediocre talent, whether in soccer or reading comprehension). And it's not just one kid whose brother just got selected for USMNT U20 and who went through DCU (after Arlington, where both also played). it's talent from numerous clubs who went to SYC and Achilles, from Arlington, VDA, SAC, etc. Bethesda has been and remains the best team in that age group in the mid-Atlantic, along with Pipeline. Oh, and I agree, the top three to four players on every team are relatively equivalent to top three or four on every other top team, but I thought you said we could not identify those top players . . . . . So much for that. I think the difference now is what you call top teams. I am pretty sure entire teams dropped from that category, so we simply have fewer of those. There are a few top teams from top clubs that would not have a single starter on any of these other, more talented teams. No sense in denying it. You might as well say birds aren't real. :D [/quote]
