[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Let's just remind some people of FCV [b]over the past year[/b].

[b]2010 FCV vs ECNL (3-0-1)[/b]
FCV 1-0 over Arlington (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 2-1 over FC Delco
FCV 1-0 over Bethesda (ECNL National Semis)
FCV 1-1 to Bethesda (ECNL National Semis)

But you know, only 1 or 2 players are good enough for local ECNL teams. Maybe they should just move over the entire team to ECNL-RL, that way regular ECNL teams wouldn't have to worry about losing to them.

[b]2009 FCV vs ECNL (2-4-0)[/b]
FCV 3-2 over Bethesda
FCV 0-2 loss to PDA Blue (ECNL NATIONAL Champions)
FCV 0-1 loss to SUSA (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 1-3 loss to NVA (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 2-1 over NVA (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 0-7 loss to Penn Fusion (Ouch, that's a bad one)

Despite the one blowout, the 09s still played close games to some of the very best ECNL teams. Looking at PDA's record, VDA also lost 2-0 at the same tournament to PDA Blue, but hey you know, FCV players aren't good enough for them either.

[b]2008 FCV vs ECNL (2-1-3)[/b]
FCV 2-0 over PDA Blue (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 2-0 over SUSA (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 2-3 loss to NC Courage (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 1-1 tie to SUSA (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 0-0 tie to Penn Fusion (ECNL National Semis)
FCV 2-2 tie to PDA Blue (ECNL Playoffs)

Wins over ECNL Playoff teams and only one loss in 6 games to ECNL playoff teams, VA parents like "that's not good enough and only 1 or 2 of your players are worthy"

[b]2007 FCV vs ECNL (2-3-1)[/b]
FCV 0-1 loss to PDA Blue (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 2-1 over World Class (ECNL National Semis)
FCV 1-5 loss to Penn Fusion (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 0-0 tie to SUSA (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 2-1 over Penn Fusion (ECNL Playoffs)
FCV 1-2 loss to World Class (ECNL Playoffs)

I won't post 06/05s because most of them will be graduating and aren't part of the conversation. But in case you were wondering, they have a winning record against ECNL Playoff teams.

FCV vs. ECNL overall (9-8-5) ***should be noted almost all games were against ECNL playoff teams, but "your girls are only good enough for ECNL-RL teams"

Shame on your ignorance. Shame.

I saw the tournament match where 2010 FCV tied Bethesda.  Some of the people around that Bethesda team thought—and had good reason to think—it might compete for a national championship.  BSC’s coach was furious and seemed shocked when the match ended in a draw.  I missed the tournament’s final where FCV beat Bethesda.  I wonder what the Bethesda side’s reaction was then.  Folks just aren’t familiar with FCV, and they buy into the notion that GA is inferior so FCV must be inferior.[/quote]

Disappointment at getting a tie against FCV and then realizing that for a run at a National Championship is not in the cards is not the pro FCV flex you think you're making. [/quote]

I wasn’t trying to make a “pro FCV flex.” I was trying to give an example of how ECNL parents and perhaps even coaches are ignorant (which is not a pejorative term) about FCV quality.  If I wanted to make a “pro FCV flex,” I would have pointed out that the 2010 Bethesda squad is pretty good—they beat NVA, VDA (2x), Brave, and McLean/Union in the Fall 23 season.  Perhaps Arlington would have got ‘em.[/quote]

Ok, how about this. Pick any ECNL club to go up in flames and all of their players now need to look for a new team.

How many of their players are making a FCV roster?[/quote]
