[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not every college team is Stanford and can pick the best of the best. There are like 650 NCAA programs, not including Junior college and NAIA. Plenty of coaches have to scout lesser teams for talent that the Stanfords and UNC's won't bother looking at.[/quote]

Ok then why does it matter which league GA or ECNL players play in?

Try and look at things objectively. There's ECNL parents saying GA is "watering down" the league. But then at the same time they say that "recruiters recruit players not teams" and this is why it doesn't matter if an ECNL team is good or bad.

All I see is ridiculous contradictions.

What's interesting is you don't see the cultish type behavior with boys. MLSN and ECNL and the other leagues exist at the same time without all the parent back and forth. Maybe it's because for girls there's no professional pathway so everything becomes nuanced with players and parents forced to hype themselves.[/quote]

You're looking for logic on this forum?[/quote]
Maybe pointing out the hypocrisy / contradictions will help new parents who are just starting to get involved.

Infinitely less likely but maybe pointing out the hypocrisy / contradictions will difuse some of the (primarily ECNL) parent cheerleaders.[/quote]
