It is interesting indeed
What did this thread say specifically. I never saw it.
Something like McLean buys GFR outright. Was far fetched since GFR is connected to MU, at least currently.

Came back here for last 2 years of HS/ECNL and went to a NESCAC school. Not a bad outcome at all, but between losing a year and dealing w/ the issues of a bloated ECNL roster - splitting time in front of recruiters, not a lot of assistance w/ recruiting from the club, her Dad feels like she probably should have had better D-I options than she did.

VDA 06 is in 10th place, not first. Does that change your view?
You're looking at VDA 07s (10th place), not the 06s (1st place).
Was looking at boys. Didn't realize you were discussing girls. Who cares about girls? Nnone of them can play as well as a boys rec team.
Boys LOL Come on. Boys grow to men, which as we see, cannot even carry water bottles to the World Cup, let along sniff getting to finals... or multiple titles. USA mens soccer is like Lithuania mens basketball, much love, but LOLOL
Sure - relative to other men. But the women only win because women don't play soccer in other countries. We are the only country where girls play soccer.
And yet our women's national team can't even beat a good U15 boys team. I believe they lost 5-0 a year or two ago to a youth team from the Dallas area.
Have you even been to another country? What an idiotic comment.
I am from Europe and have travelled all over the world and lived, with my daughters, in a number of countries.
This is the only country in the world where soccer is a major sport for girls. Go to anywhere in Europe and try to find a team for your daughter to play on. You'll be in for a looooong drive if you can even find a girls' team at all. Or she'll have to play with the boys.
Definitely true. I know an ECNL player whose family moved to the Netherlands for a year about 3 years ago. No teams; she did training and joined a field hockey team.

Moron of the day. Are you going to compare women's to men's weightlifting next?
Agree. And my DD team has friendlies with travel boys and has never lost.

That’s factual. Not only are we (US) the size of Europe, soccer is a big time girls sport. The fact that any country can even compete with us shows how bad we are at developing and scouting talent. We dominate on sheer numbers.
If US staff had to do more with less....it wouldn’t dominate anything.

It’s not a VDA pissing match. The poster got corrected for posting the wrong information in relation to the conversation and was adamant about it. That’s all...let’s move on

If your DD is aiming for D1, GA blowouts are not the way to prepare for that level of competition. The best kids should seek the best competition, and I don't see FCV providing a path for that any longer.
Except that it isn't happening.

In terms of average highest paid professional entertainment, absolutely; otherwise you’re very wrong.
No. I’m very right. Soccer is one of the most played sport for girls. For boys, not even close. And please don’t give me rec numbers. Everyone plays soccer when they’re 6. It’s the first sport you can play.
