        Apparently in your feeble attempt to outline some "hypocrisy" or "mixed messaging" by said club, you forgot the part where every single club in this country can never fully separate the development side with the business side. Show me a ECNL team plays its weakest player rotating in multiple positions for an entire game playoff game. If they truly were all about development, this would happen. Oh wait, actually if it were for development they would not play in any playoff games. Scrimmages only. See how ridiculous your premise is now. Of course clubs will continue to host 4 game Thanksgiving showcase tournaments and dozens of other clubs will put their teams in them. To suggest that just because the host club has DA affiliations is no more or less contradictory to "development" than any thing else in Club soccer. Don't like it, don't do it. No one has a gun to your head.

          Oh, those poor kids, running around having fun with their friends who also love soccer. The travesty! Don't like tournaments, don't do them!

            So your defense of this club's "hypocrisy" is to acknowledge the contradiction, the farce of "development" throughout pay-to-play, and rely on an "everybody's doing it" rebuttal. Good job!
