Points? Huh? This isn't futbol americane Jethro, you have become confused. Read a book, try "Welcome to Soccer: An idiots guide to the Beautiful game". -
When your team gets a goal, they receive a point. Same concept as Basketball, you make a basket and you get points.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
I have never heard someone relay a basketball score as 45 baskets to 23 baskets.Comment

COPA has plenty of athletes on that team. They might be less athletic than a couple teams but that's about it. They will make their run, and when they do it will be because of skill AND athleticism. It's nice to have both.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Of course not. Because unlike a goal in soccer which can be one point, a "basket" can mean 1, 2, or 3 points. THAT's why you never heard that.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post

Wrong. Flat. Out. Wrong. A goal is a goal and is scored as such and referred to as A GOAL. Points, completely not associated with scoring directly, are tied to wins, losses or draws. Its tallied as Goals per game, not points per game. Points are used to separate teams win, loss, draw variance to sort and rank team fixtures. A goal is a goal, is scored as such in Soccer stats. Period.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

So to restate for those so challenged by just the slightest difference in vocabulary...Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
When you win the reason is ... You score more goals.
When you lose the reason is ... you score less goals.
Hopefully that is semantically acceptable to everyone...Comment

So help me out, I understand how this works league wise, and it is great for the top players who have the opportunity to always play in a top game.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
Just two questions, first why not just create an A side and a B side, and have them play at the appropriate level? Second, what happens when we get to State Cup or some other competition that requires fixed rosters? Are the top kids consolidated and the rest just bumped off to the side?Comment

Because it looks better for the club if two teams are in premier. And when that wasn't working out well they do what they always do and double roster players. Works out great for those that get more playing time but not so much for those in the bench. Copa will take all the best players come State Cup time and Samba will be left with those who sat the bench all season.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Can others verify this is really going on, or is this just the CFC guy stirring the pot again? With the timing of the games on Sunday, the Copa players could have made both.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

There are dozens of messages on this forum about how important it is for the kids to play against the best competition they can. Then if a team plays better players down there is about the same number of posts complaining that it's unfair. Which is it? If your kid isn't on the team that is moving players back and forth, why do you care? If it's a problem for the team or club moving players isn't it their problem to sort out?Comment

There were Copa players on Samba and Samba players on Copa. I don't see the big deal since its all one club. Nothing wrong with one of our teams helping out another.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
