Originally posted by Unregistered View PostConsolidation of top talent from THUSC and Pacific would eliminate any real local competition but would perhaps produce a team with the talent and depth to finally compete out of state?! Sounds like a great opportunity, would love to see a local girls team take it to our RCL friends up North!

Of course you'll never accomplish anything either and I wouldn't worry about getting burned out!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostIt is not the players asking for super teams it's the parents pushing kids so hard at such young ages that most quit and burn out. Many people are successful that don't attend Harvard or Yale. I am sure that many players who decide not to try to best on top team will be successful. It's the nut job parents who end up screwing teams with idea that it must be the best and consolidate all the talent. Fact is very few girls make it to top colleges and there is a lot of collateral damage from parents.

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostMan are you damaged goods! If your kid loves the game and wants to put in the time why not have them surrounded by other top quality like minded players? Standing around waiting on others who either don't have the natural ability or don't have the interest just holds them back and slows their progress. Why would you want to hold them back or settle for mediocre?? Why settle for PCC if Harvard is an option? There's always rec league for the masses!

Originally posted by Unregistered View PostI know plenty of people who started out at PCC and have great jobs and pay. Your damaged goods. Your like those people who go to the casino and win some but, just are not satisfied so they keep betting and hoping the next bet will be the big payoff until they leave broke. Same thing with all this consolidation crap. In the end, girls quit because crazy parents always wanting more. How much do pro soccer players make anyhow? Focus on school and enjoy soccer. The chances that your 03 DD is the next superstar is very slim.
