[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have kids at another club. I probably won't watch it. I do however believe in the thought that a rising tide raises all boats. They are representing the entire DMV. I wish them the best and am cheering them on. Anytime a local team plays on a national stage we should all support the local talent.[/quote] This is a parent who gets it. [/quote] It is a league championship not a national championship. [/quote] Exactly. If they win, they will be GAL champions. Very different from being ECNL champions…which they never have been. [/quote] Who cares its a local team in a national competition. why not support them as they rep our area in whatever championship is. whether its u9 boys or u23 girls if they are a GA team or an ODSL team support them as they take on teams from outside the DMV. See the bigger picture.[/quote] Tell us the bigger picture. [/quote] Thebigger picture is reguarless of club every successful team is good for the entire area. Its fine to have local rivals. It helps to push everyone to raise their games higher. Ut also helps to support your rivals when they play teams from out of your area. The bigger goal is to have the DMV to be known as a hotbed for soccer talent and programs. Once you get to that level even the secondary talent (like mos of your players are) will be sought after more than the top players in other areas of the country. But all of this crabs in a bucket mentality is doing is keeping us from creating something big here that everyone can benefit from.[/quote] This is so dumb. A hot bed for what? For people to move here? Who cares if we are a hotbed or not? ONE aging out team winning a league championship will not change the face of DMV soccer, because it can’t. [/quote]
