What a joke. You start the whole deal and then Yada Yada your own debate. This thread was really quiet for the past few months until FC won a match. Why anyone would want to be part of that team is beyond me. Don't be shocked if your daughter quits soccer and takes up track full time. There aren't crazy track and field message boards for her to catch you drooling over.

Easy on the Caffeine homeslice. I was responding to someone else fronting soccerwire. It will be ok just chill.

Surf placed GPS in the 3rd division, better than 4th. The team did not hide. Not bad for a new team with only a track record from HSC and BSC. And they won. Hopefully next year they get moved up and will play ECNL teams. Stop disrespecting teams that aren't playing in the ECNL. Makes you look small.

Stop disrespecting ECNL by saying you are as good as, makes you look small.

Anything below top division is "hiding". Either run with the big dogs or stay on the porch. GPS has a track record of staying on the porch but barking like a big dog.

Not even close to same caliber. If that was true they would have played actual ECNL teams at Surf instead of hiding in 2nd (or was it 3rd) division. ECNL competition is high-level EVERY game. GPS might get 2 or 3 good opponents per year. Thorns Academy get none.

ECNL competition is high-level EVERY game...hmmm,wonder if some of your ECNL counterparts would say the same when they play you. Just saying.

The FC Portland ECNL 2001s were fourth place in OYSA premier a year ago so success is not new at FC! Right up there with NEU and Grants Pass.

Fourth place in OYSA Premier for FC Portland ECNL is pretty good.

OK. Last Summer was the first year with GPS. They have played in every high level opportunity afforded the team. And have done pretty well. Cant be in the ECNL because they don't play for FCP or Crossfire United, by choice. Not sure if anyone on the team is actually doing the "barking". But it seems like anytime someone brings up GPS Oregon, folks like you want to delegitimize them. Wonder why?

I am still confused. The barking is by a team parent/coach that won their first game in 6 months. They were throttled by 6 goals in 2 games a month ago. Correct me if I am wrong, doesn't FC still have a negative goal differential in their last 3 games after winning by 5? It's too bad the entire Colorado team had the flu and they had to send their B team. Now we all have to listen to FC gloating and attacks.

Ecnl competitive is not high every game and you will find that it is sometimes worse.

Ecnl teams in Oregon aren't even the best in state or close.

Ecnl teams in wa are not the best teams besides crossfire. Wa premier isn't even top 5 and Seattle reign is a joke. Spokane eastside PAC nw nw nationals are all better.

Non Ecnl teams in California are 10x better then Oregon.

Ecnl teams in Nevada and Idaho wouldn't even be best in oregon.

Burlingame has teams that have -26 goal differentials, so do teams from Idaho.



Ecnl Oregon teams are forced to go play mediocre teams when they can't even compete in state. Anyone can go find good teams to play. It's another thing to be forced to play teams and then say you are the best.

So I saw GPS Oregon girls ranked 62 in the Country on that list.. Crossfire ECNL Oregon girls were ranked 130 ...and I got tired of looking for FC Portland after passing 215...

Actually FCP is ranked 61 and GPS is ranked 63....

Ecnl Oregon team gets hammered by Oregon teams....

Next year goes to Ecnl and says every game is hard competition...

Well if you put a mediocre team who couldn't even do great in Oregon against other teams regardless of their ability they will be hard competition.

LOL, GPS has one good team, but its a one hit wonder. Are they even a top 10 girls club in the metro, much less the state?

That was the 2001 team. You are in the wrong age group.

Given their first year out they only had 02 and 03 teams.. yes.. both are in top ten. Will be interesting to see if they can pull an 04 group with GDA launching with that birth year.

Beat your chest and talk **** about other clubs when you put out consistently good teams. GPS is far from that now.

02s are good? They lost to Westside by 10 goals; lost 3 straight against Seattle United, Westside, and NEU (one of the clubs you were talking smack about).

3 wins in the last 10?
