    No one is going to disagree with that.

    Which is why it's not crazy to imagine they'll train during the week at TA and play with club teams on Saturdays as opposed to chasing some other solution.

        Something that would make sense would be for Timbers to have a reserve team that plays in OYSA premier.

        It would probably get thrashed on occasion, but if it's the B team, shouldn't cost the Timbers any face. And better then hauling those kids to Seattle or San Francisco to sit on the bench.

          Great idea, since one of the primary complaints I hear about TA is lack of playing time for players not in the top 11.
