[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is absolutely no reason for these NOVA ECNL teams to have to travel to Charlotte or Raleigh to get a game.  You should feel blessed that Covid put a damper on that this spring.  We are not ECNL, but have played some of the Carolina ECNL teams in tournaments.  There are only a couple I would say are close to the same level as the NOVA/MD ECNL teams.  There are even better teams in CCL than down there.[/quote]

It is if that’s the way the league is set up. The point is there are other options and leagues that don’t require that type of travel yet parents choose to sign their kids up for it then have the gall to complain about it which is annoying. Do y’all hear yourselves? SMH[/quote]

We don’t use “y’all”in Northern VA.[/quote]

True.  That term is reserved for actual Virginians.[/quote]

Yes. [u] I was born in Fairfax County, raised in NoVa[/u].  I'm in my 50s now.   According to most of the state, I am not Virginian.   My Virginia University referred to everyone from Northern VA, as the 'great state of N.VA'.  I can say I identify more with Northerners since my parents were New Englanders.  The 'y'all' sh*t drives me crazy.[/quote]

Then you are a wanna be elitist ass hat. Why do you care about colloquial speech in America? To be honest, the use of "y'all" linguistically is uniquely tied to American language and one of the few conjunctions in the English language that we can call our own. No other country uses it. In the same way that an Irish person might say "ye", or a Northerner might say "yous", it's an affectionate colloquialism. If you don't like it, that sounds like a personal problem stemming from airs of superiority but I'm here to tell you that Fairfax County ain't all that. [/quote]

'You guys' is standard for anyone that grew up in the immediate Wash-DC-Close-in area.[/quote]
