[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]McLean, BRYC, VDA, FCV, Metro United, Alexandria, SYC, DC Stoddert.  Everybody is freaking out right now. MLS Next, GAL, EDP won’t make your name better than: Arlington ECNL.[/quote]

Why is DC Stoddert freking? Are they worried the former ODSL teams will take their spot in NCSL and push them out?[/quote]

Because every player within 45 minute drive to Arlington just lost their best players.[/quote]

At this point everyone will have ECNL, there is no reason to drive 45 minutes to ANY club for ECNL.

This take is just laughable. [/quote]

Look at a map.  BRYC will be given a year to get their sh!t together but it won’t matter because when MW left, so did their program.[/quote]

How does that really consolidate? The net change would still be 4 ECNL clubs but currently it would be 5 from 4. ECNL has never kicked a club out in their existence. If they start kicking clubs out now then it means they have over expanded and diluted their brand. There are only 15-20 clubs left in the Nation worth adding at this point.

A collapse of GA is the only thing that would sustain the level of talent for the amount of clubs in ECNL.

ECNL really should have just cut a deal with the DA clubs last year agreeing to bring them all on over a 2 year period.[/quote]

Did you just say cut a deal with DA? Come on, man.  ECNL is king. They cut no deals. They just crushed USSF. The over expansion was not because of them. It’s because of the turf war started by USSF and their arrogance. Learn where to place the blame. [/quote]

"King"? After a decade? That is absurd. ODP was "King" too. So was Boys DA. Every industry can be disrupted. Clubs will always do what is in their best interest, not the league. If ECNL continues to expand there becomes little benefit for the top 40-70 clubs in the nation.

They may travel less, which is always good but somehow that doesn't feel like a "National League" either. It feels even less so when you are a top club and you are pounding teams 5-0, 6-0 on a regular basis.

If the product gets diluted enough a disruption will occur and top clubs will do their own thing, just the same way they did with ECNL in the beginning. [/quote]

Yes...King for girls. Without a doubt.

ECNL killed ODP
[b]ECNL killed DA[/b]
ECNL killed GA
ECNL survived a hostile takeover by THE governing body

If you’re betting on them to fail, I would think again. [/quote]

US soccer killed DA. ECNL was not in the same neighborhood as DA boys and the DA girls were headed the same way before the lawsuit killed it. [/quote]

You do know DA were ECNL clubs....yes...LOL[/quote]
