    Another Weekend of Mostly Losses

    Our "best of Oregon" GDA teams had another mostly unsuccessful weekend, this time against Seattle Reign teams that look pretty weak themselves. Two losses and a tie. One score not posted but that is surely another loss. Looks like two girls (the ones you'd expect) are carrying the one team that managed a tie.

    So for those keeping track, after two weeks our Thorns are 0-6-2. On the bright side Burlingame is up next. We'll see who wins the race to the bottom.

      Well they have something in common with CU and FC PDX, whose average scoreline per match for 2016-17 was
      0 - 6.

        Thorns will destroy Burlingame and be ta least top three in their league by the end.

            Great example of Fake News. Repeat your lie often enough and the sheep will believe it. By the way if your argument is "oh yeah, well we suck just as much as Oregon ECNL teams..." you are pretty pathetic.

              It is what it is.

              It makes no sense since all the titles were won prior to DA and shouldn't we be rolling in these events now.
              It looks like 4 since 1997. Two are with the same WSM International team.

              We are talking about 3 Regional Championship team in 14 years is not what I would classify as national dominance.... not even regional dominance.

              Your last comment makes no sense. Why would we be rolling in these events now with the DA. Our best players are playing in the DA as well so why would we be rolling in the events. Probably worse for us because our player pool is smaller so the 40 players in the DA pool represents a larger percentage than other areal with a larger player pool.

                You mean Gresham Gorilla (thugballer) and Salem not-so-Superstar (bootballer)? Once couldn't make an ECNL team and the other rode the pine when she did get a chance... If that's the best Thornz has, it's no wonder they are a winless wasteland.

                  Bingo. I think they have all the (few) goals the team has scored so far this season. It'll be interesting to see what happens next year when the teams realign (00/01 and 02/03). All the scoring firepower for that team are 02's. Their best defender is also an 02, but their best keeper is an 01. And meanwhile there's an 03 team of 18 girls, at least half who will get bumped by the much better 02 players. There will be some shocked and disappointed 03 families next May.

                    This is limited to a discussion of the Boys Clubs in Oregon (Girls are simply a mess)

                    5 Regional Titles since 1996 all of those titles were prior to the Timbers DA and only 2 years of overlap with the inception of the National DA for Boys at u16 to U18.

                    U19 has never been impacted by the DA, actually the USYS McGuire Cup has the only true all comers championship left from all the ages since the DA kids are finished the end of their HS Career or the rare ones become home grown players for an MLS Club.

                    OYSA club teams (u15-19) have very few kids not eligible to play with them in the last decade, as a result of being chosen for the the Timbers MLS DA at u16 & u18 (10 to 15 kids across 5 age groups in the USYS/OYSA, mabye) Whereas Cal North, Cal South, AZ, Washington, Colorado have robust MLS and Club DA squads for Boys at u16 & U18. Nevada and Utah have become relevant at USYS Regionals due to this movement but Oregon why has faded? It makes no sense, given how strong the Oregon Club teams were when nobody was in the DA. Sorry if you can't follow that.

                    All the Best.

                      Compared to today when we don't even have state dominance.

                      Any Regional titles for Region IV are very impressive especially for a team from Oregon beating Cal-South's best, Cal-North Best, Colorado's best, Washington's Best, New Mexico & Arizona's Best (Pre-DA).

                      Today we can't beat the historic sister's of the poor: Utah or Nevada's Best available (No DA) or the 3rd to 10th rung of California, Colorado & Washington club teams (with DA).

                      HS Boys Ages are the topic. Have a look at the current Timbers DA squads at u16 & U18 they aren't taking 40 kids from Oregon, a small handful at u18 and up to 10 or so at u16. It's not a case of the best boys being locked out of OYSA competition. Is it just a bad spell for Oregon talent or is it just too diluted or what?

                      Since 2010-17 (with all the Region IV club gunslingers out of USYS boys and moved to DA) we have won zippo.

                      2009-2010 Oregon won 3 regional titles.

                        Truth !!

                        The average cumulative scoreline for CU & FC P in all US Club events was actually:

                        .037 GF
                        5.53 GA.

                        Looks like the rounded down and up.

                        Truly fake news for sure.

                          *** is state dominance? We are talking about regional and national dominance. Someone made this point "many Boys teams were on par with the region's best and even a handful were nationally relevant from the 90's to 2010."

                          How about 1 team or maybe 2 teams over the past 20 years?

                          2009-2010 was 3 regional titles with 2 teams.

                          "Since 2010-17 (with all the Region IV club gunslingers out of USYS boys and moved to DA) we have won zippo"

                          That is a true fact. For the last 7 years we have won zippo. What about the 10 years prior to 2009? We have won zippo as well, but I see you did not make that point.

                          On your argument about not beating the "historic sister's of the poor"... did you see this year's results for the boy's side? As a group we won more games than we lost with two teams getting out of group play and making the semifinals.

                          On your argument about the lack of Oregon players on the Timbers Academy Roster, that is also not accurate. There are about 35-39 players from Oregon and SW Washington on the Timber's U16 and U18 roster. I assume most of the 20+ players on the U14 roster are also from Oregon.

                          The state of soccer from Oregon may be on the decline, but the data does not really support your position. With the exception of 1,2,3, or maybe 4 teams... we haven't been all of that in the past either... kinda like people talking about their HS glory days.

                            If youth soccer is about development then the real scoreline is how may players move on to play college soccer.

                            CU score?

                            FC score?

                            WST score?

                            Eugene Timbers score?

                            Thorns score?

                              GDA was -8 GD this weekend and still remain winless. Bring on Burlingame so we can feel good about ourselves

                                Or we can go on here to anonymously bully teenage girls and feel good about ourselves.
